Hoyle, had its first | “once-over” by an admiring host of | the nobles and served its first official duty in housing the potentate's special meeting last Tuesday evening. Those who had the good fortune to be in at- tendance say that it lost nothing in the crucial test, but rather inspired enthu- astic prophecy and started imagina- ions on its ultimate possibilities, The ntate was there in all his glory, a matter of course, and “with bells his fingers,” 8o to speak, for he had ith him Noble Clifford Berryman. fa- ous cartoonist of The Evening Star, artistry in his line has placed in the ranks of the foremost car- toonists of the world, and Noble Roy. Sexton, chairman of the entertainment committee, with Lloyd Gaines and a string. quartet that before the evening was finished warmed listless hands into enthusiastic applause of its enter- | tatnment_program, which followed the | business session of the temple. Potentate Hoyle, after cordially wel- coming the sheik of the caravan and bestowing a special smile upon those whose camels had not been seen frequent- ly in recent years, launched into an exposition of his administrative program for. the year, and there was more hand- clapping, with not a few cheers to en- courage him. He dwelt with special emphasis upon the forthcoming official visit of Imperial Potentate Leo V. ‘Youngworth and the elaborate ceremo- nial that was being prepared for Thurs- day evening, April 3, at the Belasco Theater, when, for the first time in Masonic history, the entire cast of cere- monialists will be composed of past grand masters of the Grand Lodge of Masons of the District, who also were present to listen to his laudations. Not all of these past grand masters have ever occupied Shrine ceremonial posi- tions, and in view of that fact the po- tentate stated that they were being specially groomed for the occasion, and none thus far had not manifested the eternal fitness of things in his selection for the new duties. The potentate re- minded the wmobles that no petitions for the ceremonial class could be legally ac- cepted after Saturday evening, March 29, and that it therefore behooved the nobles to get busy in the efforts to honor the imperial potentate with the largest, or at least the most satisfying, army of neophytes that had ever been gmnud in an Almas ceremonial. And en Clff Berryman began drawing likenesses of Presidents of the United Btates and accompanying each with his- | torical episodes that made the nobles wonder. Sexton and Gaines showed reels of familiar scenes taken at | Imperial Council sessions in the past | and the string quartet stirred the | musical * souls to an appetite for an elaborate buffet luncheon that had been prepared for the occasion, after which the nobles made a night of it in peering into every nook and corner of the new club house, asking questions of this and that and finally talking everything over in clouds of cigar smoke, which are always provided, it is said, for Shrine angels. ‘The Ionic Club of Master Masons, through C. Earl Grantham, dent, + has announced that the club will meet tomorrow evening in the “Spanish| Garden” of the Washington Hotel, | Fifteenth and F streets northwest.
