Tllustrious Potentate Leonard P. Steuart has announced a ceremonial session of Almas Temple for May 3, with a street parade of all the un formed bodles of Almas Temple in the afternoon. It will be held at the Capltol Theater, the only available auditorium in the city of sufficient size to accommodate a Shrine func- tion. A big feature will be the pres- ence of Imperial Potentate Ernest A. Cutts, who already has signified his acceptance of an invitation to be present. This means an unusual de- gree of elaboration in the prepara- tions to give him a fitting reception, for Almas Temple entertains a high regard for Mr. Cutts. The business session will be called at 2 o'clock in -the afternoon, the parade will start at 3 p.m. and the ceremonial session will begin at 7:30.

It is the purpose of the potentate to have all the uni- \formed badies of the temple attend this service, marching, with the band, from Shrine headquarters, 711 13th street, to the church, where the ne:v)ce will be of a special char- acter. - Potentate_ Steuart is especially proud of the growth and improve- ment of Almas Temple's Milltary Band under its new director, Willlam C. White. In numbers the organiza- tion has been more than doubled, and during the recent fair Director White had fifty-five musicians responding to his baton. The new conductor is giv- ing attentlon not only to the e largement and improvement of the personnel of the band, but he is also giving no little attention to the char- acter of the music for its programe and, it is sald, hopes to have it the equal of any concert band of its size In the country before the start is made next June for the session of the Imperial Council, in San_ Francisco, where it will lead the biggest uni- formed host of Shriners ever sent out of Washington to an Imperial Council session. | The .potentate is showing some pride also in_the rapid advancement of the Almas Temple Glee Club, which he hopes to have one of the b.ggest entertainment factors of Almas Tem- ple before the close of his adminis- tration. It is also his purpose to de- velop the Almas Temple Orchestra, for the pote is strong for music as a good mixer and harmonizer as well as entertainer. High Priest A. M.
