In Seymour, where we have an or- chard, we will have a 50 per cent. crop.

Henry Monroe of New Haven was Wednesday elected grand master of Odd Fellows in this state at the annual convention of the grand lodge in New Haven. Other officers elect- ed were: Deputy grand master, Geo. M. Chapman, Waterbury; grand sec- reuu'y wnu-.m S. Hutchison, New grand lrealllrer. Sidne'y W cxu.uenser Bridgeport; Harry Hirsch, New don- gnnd marshall, W!lllnm T. Meyer, Bri port; d conductor, Frank W. ton, haplain, Rev. Chules H. Smith, Barfe, Mass.; grand guar- dian, Herbert J.

New Charter for Montville Lodge. Robert F. W. Adams, the grand master, made a lengthy réport on the activities of the past year. Of local interest is the following reference to Mentville lodge: On Dec. 4, 1915, Thames lodge, No. 22, of Montvilley suffered most severe- ly from a fire and everything was burned, even the charter. They have continued to work under dispensation. and are slowly recovering ‘from this most serious eetback. I would sug- gest that a new charter be granted Thames lodge, No. 22, and that the price of six new rituals (which they ‘were compelled to purchase to con- tinue their work) be returned to them. Grand Treasurer’s Report. A summary of the report of the grand ‘treasurer, Sidney W. Challen- ger, follows: The year has been a prosperous one financially and there is a most sub<| stantial increase in the balance, in spite of some added demands on ac- count of the higher cost of material used in printing. The gain for the year 15 $823.84. A little over $100 of this is represented by the return of part of a donation to the grand lodge of Ohfo and Indiana for the flood suf- ferers. Including this sum, the in- crease in receipts has been $59376. The expense account has been eniarged 269.01. Interest furnisbed income to the amount of $89.94.
