With the sixteenth annual conven- tion of the National League of Ma- sonic Clabs just one month distant, the convention committee, headed by Past Grand Master James W. Witten, is working early and late on the extensive program of arrangements. Headquarters have been established at the New Ebbitt Hotel, with Sec- retary Charles A. Stevens, for han- Although it has just held what is generally regarded as one of the great- est ceremonials in its history, Illus- trious Potentate Henry Lansburgh an- nounces that Almas Temple of the Mpystic Shrine will hold another grand ceremonial at Poli's Theater the even- ing of May 9, to which both Noble President Harding and Illustrious Poten- tate Ellis Garretson will be invited, with the almost certainty that the latter will be present. Potentate Lansburgh has previously stated that he expects this ceremonial to eclipse all its predeces- sors in grandeur and elaboration in honor of the distinguished guests ex- pected. Monday, J. Fred Huber, chief electrician of Almas Temple, and Virgil M. Fookes, director of the floor squad, went to Dallas, Tex., to attend the meeting of the ‘Shrine stage directors, which was held Thursday, Priday and Saturday of the week just closed, in order to secure the latest éxchange of novelties in the elaboration of the ceremonial features and supplementary exercises. Ali the efforts of Almas Arab Patrol are being concentrated this week in the preparations for the grand annual ball at the New Willard Wednesday evening, ‘which is being designed to eclipse in beauty and novelty its famous predeces- sors, the “Golden Apple” ball and the “Golden Fleece™ of last year. The deco- rations for the occasion will exhaust the assets of the electrician and the florist's arts and two _orchestras including “Jacoby’s Jazz Jugglers,” will provide the music for the dance program, upon which the wisdom and ingenuity of the terspichorean specialists have been en- gaged for some time. There will be no “golden apple.” but there will be sur- prises for more than one of the lady guests of the evening. This year, it is stated. the patrol has centered its efforts upon handsome souvenirs, which will be given to every lady guest of the evening, and which will surpass any ever presented at a Shrine function. A feature of the evening will be the solos to be rendered by Noble L. W. Brown, formerly a star of the Keith circuit. Announcement has been made already through the news columns that the Im- perial Council committee has selected St. Louis, Mo., as the site for the National Shrine Home for Crippled Children, which has been endowed with milllons for its erection and maintenance by the no- bility without outside appeal. Potentate Lansburgh, Chief Rabban Leonard P. Steuart and Treasurer Ar- thur E. Cooke, accompanied by a small group of nobles, attended the ceremonial session of Lu Lu Temple in Philadelphia Wednesday evening. During the course of the evening Past Imperial Potentate ‘W. Freeland Kendrick, now potentate of Lu Lu Temple, on behalf of Potentate Lansburgh individually and not, as has been stated, on behalf of Almas Temple, presented to Dr. A. Howard Thomas, director of the Lu Lu Temple Band, a silver-mounted jeweled baton and to Capt. William D. Asnip of the Lu Lu Temple Patrol a handsome sterling sil- ver sword, beautifully etched, in recog- nition and appreciation of courtesies shown the Almas Temple potentate, who made an address in connection with the occasion that was received with con- siderable enthusiasm. May 18 Almas Temple will give a complimentary ball of formal character and with the usual Shrine elaboration at the Arcade for the nobility in gen- eral and their ladies, when the only in- vitations and cards of admission will be the Shriner's identification card and fez. This evening at 8 o'clock all chapter Masons and their friends are invited to attend a “capitular service’” at Trinity Civic and Community Church, 3d and C streets northwest, Rev. Dr. Covell, rector. The affair is under the auspices of Columbia Royal Arch Chapter, No. 1, Grant S. Barnhart, high priest. An address will be delivered by Deputy Grand High Priest Delos W.
