The annual installation and ban

two orders.
There was an unusually large a t

In addition to the reg u lar install
ation procedure, W alter Scrutton, the
retiring W orshipful M aster of the
Vasonic order, was presented with a
beautiful apron by L o s:« - Townsend
in a most pleasing m anner.
Cordelia C arter, t h e

W orthy M atron was given a special
degree in a very effective settin g and
was presented with a lovely E astern
S tar ring from the cra p ter and a
very attractiv e console set from her
officers fo r the year and the Pact

A fter the ceremonies a t the hall
were completed all ad journed to the
Estacada hotel where Mr. Moore end
his co-workers served one of the
finest banquets ever enjoyed by the
members of the orders.
Miss A nna Dillon acted as to a s’

herself most charm ing indeed.
Several musical num bers and the
usual routine of speeches w ere given
until a late hour.
