ODD FELLOWS' GRAND WARDEN
A WONDER IN FRATERNITY
Milto Lodge's Thirty-first Anniversary Caledonian's Visitation
and Floor Work in Camden Degree Staffs Finishing
Full-Fortn Work for the Summer.
Robert Vf. Montgomery, tho new Brand
Warden of the order, was Initiated Into
Aurora Lodgo Mny, 18S1, but after a long
absence In trovellnB ho connected with
Washington Irving Lodge, No. 768. Ho
Hned through It chnlm and became dep
uty grand master of tho district. His
activities were continuous and lasting In
all branches of constructive Odd Follow
ahln. To carry out a prlnclplo he severed
his connection with No. W) and Joined an
other lodge to defend one of Its members,
whom he believed had been wronged, and
his opinion for right having been
acknowledged, ho withdrew and placed
his card In Damascus Lodge, No. 6S0.
Brother Montgomery was never a repre
sentative to the Grand Lodge, as ho is
firm In his belief that a truo representa
tive should be retained Indefinitely, In
order that his experience should reflect
credit upon his lodge and establish his
vnlue In the deliberations nnd continuous
work of tho Grand Lodge, tho largest rep
lescntatlvo deliberative body of men In
tho country.
Brother Montgomery, In his fraternal
connections, would seem to havo gone the
limit as a "Jlrter," as tonowa.

"Dcy nin't no fr'cns," replied Violet,
"dcy is cops, on' ahm bcln' pinched."
"Ah'll Jes' see about tlat," said White,
but when the cops told him to "beat It"
he refused, and tried to, pull Violet from
tho law. Tho policemen gathered him In
aulckly and took him along to tho City
Hall with Violet.
When Pink White and Violet Green
wero announced, Magistrate Beaton was
amnzed to seo two dark prisoners. White
apologized profusely, and so did Violet.
"Now that I know you in your truo
colors," Bald tho Judge, "I'll give you
another chance."
