Good. The program consisted of music by Hayden and Beethoven. Mrs. Rishell played one of Hayden’s Sonatas. The Beethoven selections proved to be records of his ninth symphony, and is the first symphony to be record- ed in its entirety. The recording was done in England and the musicians were the Queen’s orchestra. Mrs. Good told of the personality and work of each composer, and, by playing on the piano, the different themes used in the symphony, greatly illuminated the complexity of the work. When the program was completed a very delicious luncheon was ser- ved. Mrs. Good deserved a vote of thanks from the club and its guests for a thoroughly enjovable evening.

A number ODD FELLOWS MEET Have Great Celebration; Many In Attendance One of the most unique events of the winter months occurred last Thu- rsday evening, January 13th; in the Odd Fellows Hall, which was attend- ed by many members of the order from this vicinity. The large assem- blage was in honor of the incoming class of candidates and also in com- memoration of the birthday anniver- sary of Thomas Wildey, the founder of Odd Fellowship in the United States. Many visitors, including the District Deputy of Cambria County District number 2 were present, and a roll call of the lodges present was answered by members of Ebensburg Lodge, Blicklick Lodge 1088 of Nant- v-Glo; Houtzdale Lodge; Ashcroft Lodge 1020 of Hawk Run; Dixonvil- le Lodge; and Patton Lodge 1089. The business meeting commenced at 8:00 P. M. in charge of Homer J. Larimer; N. G. and Leonard Kusner, V. G. After the completion of the re- gular business the degree team of Pat- ton Lodge took charge of the meeting and conferred the Initiatory Degree upon Leonard G. Corby of Patton and Louis Johnman jr. of Hastings. The work of the Degree, especially the ritualistic work as exemplified by the rarious members of the team brought forth much applause from the assem- blage. A neat floor drill them com- pleted the degree work for the even- ing after which the lodge was closed and turned over to the Entertain- ment committee. A most delicious thing extraordinary and more relish- ing than the usual club luncheons, was then served by the luncheon Commit- tee. Pickles and olives; sandwiches of countless varieties; dainty cakes of several sorts; fruit salad and jello with flavored wipped cream; individ- ual bricks of Penn Cress ice cream; after dinner mints; chocalate hershey luncheon, some- buds; cigars and cigarettes; and old fashioned coffee were on the bill of fare. Never before in the history of the local Lodge had such a 'uncheon been served and the quantity as well as the quality of the menu indicated a vast amount of preparation by this committee. A vote of thanks were giv- en to the “chefs” of the evening. Impromptu speeches were then of- fered by different members of the or- der, speaking on the lessons of Odd Fellowship and the great expansion of this order in the world today. The memory of Thomas Wildey, the found- er of the I. O. O. F., was also honored in the speech of Pa District Deputy, William Nimmo. This great order which now totals close unto three mil- lion members is only an infant among fraternal organization; but ranks for- most among them. The age limit is now eighteen years of age and more young men are joining this order than ever before in the annals of Qdd Fel- lowship. Patton Lodge has alone in- creased its own membership 20 per- cent in the past five weeks and be~ fore the winter months are past it wil be much higher. Patton Lodge now leads District number 2 of Cambria County in this respect. The social and fraternal activities derived from Odd fellowship are many and no better in- vestment of this nature can be made by a prospective candidate, eighteen or over. The lodge work is interesting and the meeting are attended by large gatherings. A degree Team is now in vogue and this alone tends to make the Local Lodge one of the foremost of any lodges in this region. Several other items on the entain- ment of the evenings were a vocal so- lo by Thomas Wardlow of Blicklick Lodge who is a native of Scotland. This was well receved by the audience. Many others gave a few minutes talk on the subject of the meeting and then at a very late hour the members de- parted for their respective homes, car- rying with them many thoughts of the most enjoyable evening of pleasure, business and entertainment that Pat- ton Lodge has ever had. Listed among the out of town guests were; William Nimmo, Robert Nim- mo; Thomas Wardlow, and William Butterworth of Nant-y-Glo; Byron Davis; M. R. Heath; Stanley Davis; R. C. Getings; Myles Evans and Les- ter Larimer, of Ebensburg; George Heuther, Bert Elden, W. M. Hunter and John Johnman, of Hastings; Har- ry Moore, Charles Stickler, Howard Davison, William Symons Sr., William Symons Jr., all of St. Benedict; Wal- ter Nicholson and Joseph Chapman, of Barnesboro; and Walter Myers of Dixonville. Together with the many members of Patton Lodge who were in attendance eighty some Odd Fellows were present at the celebration. This Thursday evening the first de- gree will be exemplified by the degree team upon a class of candidates from Cherrytree Lodge No. 417, as well as from Patton Lodge. A very large turn out is expected and it will be worth the attendance of any Odd Fel- low in seeing this splendid degree con- ferred. Come early and get a good seat as we expect to be crowded.

Reduction of the mortality from this disease may be difficult, but the prevention of second- ary cases would seem to be largely possible and will contribute definitely to the desired end. For the purpose, therefore, of min- imizing contact with ses of pneu- monia and thereby diminishing op- portunity for the Jiechi of others, the Advisory Health Board of the Pennsvlvania Bet: Boa of Health adopted regulations on December 21, 1926, requiring 1.—That all cases of pneumonia, of whatever form, shall be reported, the diagnosis to be qualified by using the forms “lobar,” “broncho,” “hypostat- > (or other) as the case may be. —That all cases of pneumonia shall be isolated with only the neces- sary attendant, until recovery or de- ath. We are confident that this attempt to lessen the incidence of pneumonia will meet with your entire approval, and hope that we will have vour full- est co-operation in the reporting of cases, their isolation. and the instrue- tion of those concerned in the wisdom of avoiding nunecessary visits to the patient either by members of the fa- mily or others.
