Imas Temple's recent activities will first manifest themselves in the : extraordinary ceremonial session to be held at the Capitol Theater Wednesday evening. It will start with a business session at 4:30 p.m., the ceremonial starting at 7 p.m. ‘This will be the first ceremonial ses- sion_of Tlustrious Potentate Leonard V. Steuart, who says:- “We have planned that our March 1 ceremonial shall be a killer of dull care. an evaporator of blue funk and a mirth- maker par excellence. We have had much recently to depress us, but, if Allah will smile upon us, we pro pose, on the first day of the windy month, to hand out something that will atone for the miserable weather the groundhog passed along to us on Henry's birthday, February 2, Our alchemists, zem zem workers, dis- tillers, pillrollers, jokesmiths, teas- ers and other experts are busily en- saged night and day cooking up medicine that will take every drop of gall out of the bitterest soul in the desert, a potion that will make nobles kinder to their mothers-in- law, more careful of their obliga- tions and more anxious to fall in be- hind the camels on future marches across the hot sands. The sun may shine during the day, but we are Zoing to make the moon shine on a dark night. This, apparently, leaves but little 1o be said, except that assurances have been recelved by the potentate that every one of the past potentates will be on hand to help the good work along. His latest message in the alibi states, “Not only do I wish 1o lead you, but to work with you in building up our temple numerically, as well as to spread the gospel of good-fellowship and create the mmiles that make life worth while.” He sagely adds: *“Joy more con- tagious than measle: He also sends forth a mighty call to rally around the forthcoming fair pro- moters at Convention Hall. Sunday evening, April 30, has been designated rine evening” at Trin- ity Church, 3d and C streets north- west, where special services will be conducted by Noble Rev. David Ran- som Covell. Almas Divan, the Band, the Patrol, the Gk Club and other units will attend in a body. The nobility and their friends are invited. Almas Temple’s net membership at the close of the Shrine year number- cd 4,647, and the potentate is hoping to push it well over the 5,000 mark st this ceremonial, if possible, and, if pot, certainly at the next.

But if the coming ceremonial and } the wonderful last issue of the Alibi | indicate activity, what is to be said {of the preparations that have been made for a still more wonderful “Almas Temple Shrine fair,” an- nounced for Convention Hall for March 6 to 18, inclusive of- both | dates? Washington has seen Masonic fairs and festivals, but it is safe to say this new design of the Shriners will be absolute in its unique cha; acter, and that means that nothing like it has ever been presented here. Tts details of usefulness and amuse- ment have been drawn from every corner of the Shrine world. to say {nothing of the tax upon the consciousness of Director Jobn J. P. Mullane, who is accounted some wiz- ard in this Jine. IMullane calls it a “Shrine Arabian Fete.” in an oriental setting arranged in Shrine form a la Bagdad, trans- ported over the burning sands, with something doing every instant and of the deepest interest and profit to men, women, children, merchants, manu- facturers. householders, ot householders, those who use wearing apparel, those who ghave it for disposal, those who dand®, those vho do not. .th who love music, those who do not, etc. ete., with . circus feats, aerial novelti | things undreamed of." This, he explains, is not the raving of a press agent. but an humble effort to convey to the ordinary mind, in a modest way. a few of the things that are _to make the unique carnival the Liggest and the newest thing Washington has ever seen. The patrol dance scheduled originally for March 11 at the Hotel Washington has been transferred to Conventional Hall for obvious reasons.
