THE mantle of time has again fallen upon the scene of ome more festive event in the age-old drama of Maspn- ry. The Masonic Festival celebrated the other day by Golden Star Lodge, No. 484 AF. & A.M., while up-to-date to the last detail in every respect, was enhanced in historical interest by that adorned the walls of the Paper Mill Hall, which carried one back in unbroken line to the period before the Assyrian or Persian had stormed the ramparts of Greece, or the Children of Israel had bewailed their wretched- ness in the land of the Pharaohs, ere the pyramids were uplifted in their enduring majesty under the canopy of heaven. An assemblage of about two hun- dred Brethren with their wives and other lady friends were welcomed by a reception committee composed of Mrs Do Reid, Mrs A. M. Taylor Bros. Reid, Taylor Pitt and Matthews. After an interval to allow the guests to greet each other, proceedings were started by a whist drive which proved highly enjovable. The most expert 'n this event were Mrs H. Adair and Bro. T. Cullen, the lowest on the list heing Miss Howie and W. Bro. D. W. Seoti. W. Master Bro. D. Reid, followed with a short address of welconte tc 'he ladies who were thé guests of the Brethren, and formally invited then "0 enjoy the atmosphere of the mystis sivcle for one evening in with their husbands and gentlemer 'riends. The brilliant Orchestra present argely composed of Brethren, begar "he programme with the Grand Makc! 'n which the whole company joined. 'Dancing followed till about elever o'clock, when an interlude had beer arranged for more personal entertain Brethren. . Bro. A. E. Berrey sang "To the end of the world with "you," 'n excellent voice and on recall made a fine impression with "Only a Pansy Blossom." Bro. Risegari faveure with two violin numbers (a) "Salw P Amour" and (b) Bolero," accompan- 'ed by Mr J. Gammon, played with masterly technique. Bro. Pitt nex! eared with a large show-card or was inscribed the cryptic title "Masons for an Hour," He proceeded 'n his own inim'table manner to recite a formula in which he explained that} it had been planned to initiate those] adies present into some of the secrets of Masonry for an hour. The ladies had already been provided with Re- zalia in the form of small aprons with "he name Golden Star Lodge stitched "hereon, and that they greatly appre- siated the honour was evidenced by their keen enjoyment of the ceremony. (The address in full appears on the hack page, under the caption "Masons 'or an hour.") A quartette including Bros. M. S. Sampbell, A. E. Berrey, A. Burton, H. Fumphreys, distinguished themselves '1 "The Soldier's Farewell," and in- -veased their prestige in a splendid rendition of "Someone." It was re- ~arked that they must have trained on a diet of birdseed to achieve such artistic excellence. The final selection in this part of the programme was the admirable cornet solo "The Rosary," by Mr H. Adair, The well laden banquet table next -laimed the attention of the assembly, where the viands prepared by Mr and Mrs Upton and served by Messrs B. Rerrey and Jack Pitt called for merit- ed apureciation. In a short speech Bro. Pitt congratulated those present on the felicity that had marked the even'ng and fraternal good-fellowship that had obtained, which after all was the happiest and most pression of the purpose of Masonry. The committee who made the ar- rangements, Bros. Berrey, Burton and Graham, assisted by the entertain- i ment committee, Broa. Humphreys, Campbell and Pitt, are greatly to be congratulated on their success in pro- viding one of the most golden memor- jes in the history of Golden Star Lodge. The guest list imcluded:-- Bro. D. Reid, W.M. and Mrs Reid W. Bro. A. M. and Mrs Taylor W. Bro. Dr and Mrs Dingwall W. Bro. I. and Mrs Pinkerton W. Bro. Alfred Pitt Bro. H. and Mrs Humphreys Bro. M. S. and Mrs Campbell Bro. A.

Institute Gwe Tea | { School Questions Discussed. } ; i An excellent custom of the W .L is: to invite, once a year, the members 'of the School Board and the Teaching Staff to a joint conference for the pro- motion of matters pertaining to the advancement of education and the { welfare of school children. The affair { this year took on more importance 1 © a Incorporated 1670 Oldest, Strongest, Best. terest being taken in school affairs. Mrs Latimer, president, addressed; the gathering in the basement of tlie Union Church last Friday, and made} clear the motive of the Institute in attempting to co-operate with those in charge of the school. Mrs Golden, district president, occupied the chair, M. S. Campbell, chairman of the Board was called on for a short ad dress, in which he outlined the ambi- tion of the School Board to make Dyy- den the educational centre of this large district; an ambition, he pointed the inspector and the Department. He drew attention to the fact that al- though Dryden undoubtedly had the talent, this town had contributed few members to the honourable profession of teaching. He thought if facilities were established here to allow young people to complete their training in would be encouraged to adopt teach- 'ng as a profession. THe hoped and helieved that their purpose in erecting a big school here had only to become <nown to be assured of the support o avery worthy citizen. \ Principal Craven of the Continuation | School, and Principal Jackson of the Public School, told of the work being done and the broad plan on which the instruction was founded. Miss Foste: gave a very and instructive talk or her specialty, physical training, and showed the lasting benefits to growing girls of this valuable course. Hex enthusiasm, and the fact that she has devoted much of her own time to the work. in the interest of hey pupils earned the hearty approval of man 'of 'her heurers: rE Dr Dingwall gave a few words of advice regarding the health reg tions, and the duties of this connection. His address v livened by a subtle humour whick greatly enjoyed. by his audience. BE. W. Wice, of the School Beard, alsc expressed his pleasure in having me' those in whose hands the future o our young citizens rests. During the evening Miss E. V. In- gall contributed several delightful songs, while Miss G. Godwin charmec the company with her brilliant pianc- forte selections. i After a light lunch had been served hy the ladies of the Institute, and ¢ pleasant social chat, the gathering dispersed, much edified by the discus sion which had taken place.

A Fresh Start Dryden Board of Trade produced ve- sults that raise hopes in many duar- ters that Dryden at last is awaking to he responsibilities as apart from the advantages of being a centrally locat- ed town, with a large surrounding in those things that spell progress. discussion took place regarding the lethargy that had marked the accom- "he officials, and the onus put upon of Trade to justify its existence. Mr Pitt analysed the situotion, and dem- ovstrated that the condition complain- ed of was not peculiar to Dryden; he ed that Mr S. Swanson be again ed president, and that effort be e to support him in any step he v4 take for the public interest. such questions as the buoying of 1 Wabigoon, the need of a road thr to Richan, freight rates, a water tem for Dryden, and a get-togethe: meeting. Ways were also discussed in which the influence of \the Board ity around Dryden, and the des ity of including as muny as posgibl tants of mneighbou lans were made to bring the ad- tages of membership before any who could be reached, and a genera! 'nvitation was extended to the people of the district tc add their strength to that of the town for the public good. Out of the discussion as to water- works, the Council of the Board went on record as being in favour of im- mediate steps being taken to promote ity as essential to further pro- ozs of any kind, and a copy of the re-olution will be forwarded to the Town Council. A committee was appointed to ar- range for a big get-together meeting "0 be held on Thursday, March 30th, at which it is hoped many representa- tives from other points can be present such as the secretary and president of each U.F.O. club, and other members of public bodies in the district. The date was put late to allow information regarding the event to be widespread and thus secure as full an attendance as possible. Mention it to your friends, and be- tween you decide whether a Board of Trade reflecting the opinion of this whole district could not be made a factor of tremendous importance in ie progress of Dryden and district.

Symphony Orchestra makes its' first appearance. Rin If you enjoy good musie:. if. you have a taste for bright, tuneful: melo- dies, or love the haunting sweetness of an old song, come and listen to the playing of "The Graduation March," to "Love's Dream" (waltz), OF carry your mind back over the years in 'the fine old song "Alice, where art thou." Or it may be the "Miserere" fiom "11 Trovatore" that would best suit your mood. But, anyway, you can never regret the hearing of good musie in the quiet environment of the Straad, where the moving shadows tell the endless story of love and happiness, or of tragedy and despair.

The unsuspecting victims of this strategy innocently stepped on the ice to face the alleged "all-star" importation who were to strip them of their glory and in a one-period game inflicted defeat upon the big-town champions, by a score of two to one. Dryden, as usual, was represented by players whose residence in this burg, without exception, dates from a perod before there was much pros- pect of our being able to build a rink this winter, and they are greatly ex- hilerated by the victory won against this formidable line-up from the head of the lakes. The poor condition © the ice explains why the game was not continued beyoud twenty minutes, or the Dryden team might have put across a play that would have added much to the "surprise" felt. The Pulp Mill Crescents would like to meet this team on good ice, and are ready to consider any challenge given through the press. RL The Crescents expect to visit Ken- ora and Keewatin Wednesday 'and Thursday of this week.
