Robert Le Bruce Chapter, Order of De Molay, sponsored a moonlight trip aboard the Wilson Line steamer Thurs- day night, with dancing and refresh- ments. Next Sunday the annual stag outing of the chapter will be held at “Dad” Roller’s cottage at Plum Point Beach. The activities of the day will include a base ball game, athletic events, swim- ming and diving contests, and last but not least lunch, which will be furnished by the chapter. The party will leave the west end of Pennsylvania Avenue Bridge (Seventeenth and Pennsylvania avenue southeast) 9 am, drive down the Marlboro Pike to the Patux- ent River, turn right at the first con- crete road and continue to Plum Point. There will be a bus available at a nominal charge for those who do not own cars. August 1 the chapter’s annual Sum- mer dance will be given at Congres- sional Country Club. This is to be an | 5 invitation affair, , Emo! McIntosh, chairman of the committee, at 2330 Becond street northeast, phone North 0515, is arranging the issue of invita- tions. Outings being the most popular sport available in these days of rising tem- perature, Illustrious Potentate James C. Hoyle, who had anticipated con- ditions some time ago, is pressing con- sideration of the nobility to the annual outing of Almas Temple of the Mystic Shrine at Seaside Park, the big, new amusement sports ground at Chesa- peake Beach, the coming Saturday. Trains will leave the District Line at 9 and 10:30 am. and 2:30, 5:40 and 7 pm., returning to the city at 5, 7, 9 and 11:30 p.m. This outing, the poten- tate emphasizes, is not a unit benefit, but the annual outpouring of the no- bility in general, from the lingering past potentates to the young and aspiring newly-fledged, and it isn't a benefit for anybedy or anything, but it is a general Shrine jollification which | this year will be conducted ‘“‘under the auspices of the uniformed bodies.” Also it is one of those things upon which Potentate Hoyle is relying %o keep alive the interest of the fez- ‘wearing gentry of the Caucasian jon. Noble Edward Burkholder, g’).:; has been writing pleces for the paper about it, having exhausted his own stock of information, has sent each of the nobility an alluring circular sponsored by the amusement resort, which seems calculated to tempt the most retiring Shriner for miles around. Naturally bathing is emphasized, be- cause—well because bathing pictures are always so attractive. And there is to be dancing also, for no Summer out- ing would amount to anything with Masonic Turks that omitted the joys of feet shuffiing. To add to these there are to be crabbing, boating, coaster riding, aerial swings, kiddie playgrounds and dear knows what, but with them all there will be Masonic fleld sports that will tax the obese in foot races, throwing the rolling pin, tying a bow knot, making and baking a cherry pie and many other unique Shrine pleas- antries with the haven after them all of shady picnic groves for rest and re- cuperation. The potentate's committee is checking up on those who will or who will not be present, cards having been sent out for the purpose, and the “will nots” may expect these to be “followed | g, up” by “personal solicitation,” tate, Members of Warren G.
