Grange Meeting.
A splendid meeting of the Grange
was held in Masonic hall here last Sat­
urday, the special feature being the
regular annual memorial services. In
the morning the third and fourth de-
I grees were administered and regular
routine of business transacted. At
noon dinner was served.
In the afternoon the Grsnge chil
dren went through a very pietty drill, j
placing roses on the tables of the offi­
cers. Recitations were given by
I Misses Wanda Todd, Helen Cor! and
Master Buxton, Jr.
Then followed memorial services
which were very impressive. Prof.
1 Marsh paid a fine tribute to Mrs. Ship-
ley, giving a sketch of her life and
work. S. T. Walker spoke feeling'y
ol David Smith as a citizen, father and
Granger; and Mrs. A. T. Buxton gave
a worthy memorial of J. B. McPherson.
