HE first grove of the Tthe Grand Grove of the clent Order of Druid tuted to-day in Willits, Mendc ty, by Grand Secretary James F. Mart noni. It will work in the Italian languag Noble Grand Arch George Beck shortly Institute a new grove at Alv with sixty or more charter membe s All the local groves are workin will arado crease the membership and th scarcely a meeting at which the subor- dinate bodies are not conferring degrees. Gallileo Grove at its meeting on the first Tuesday in July conferred the sec- ond degree in costume and in the amp fled form on three bards in the presence of as many as could find places in the grove’s large hall. The officers were all perfect in the work and the manner in which they delivered the charges to the candidates was commended by many. Whenever this grove's officers confer that degree, which is subMme, there is always a crowed house. District Deputy Noble Pugo of Los Angeies visited San Diego last week -and in the companv of five other Druids exemplified the work of the order to the officers of U. 8. Graat Grove, recently instituted in San Diego. He re- ports that this recent accession to the order is doing well. It is reported that since the visit then Noble Grand Arch Gugiielmoni and of Grand Secretary James F. Martimon! to the groves in Los Angeles there has been unusual activity and all the subo dinates in the city are quite active. 8an Joaquin Grove No. 9 has pldced an order for a set of new regalia, the first since institution, forty years ago.

Godeau, who is a past arch Druidess of this ci cle, has been appointed by Grand Arch Druidess Mrs. Louise Zazzl deputy for El Dorado Circle. She is a lady who has the happy faculty of making friends at sight and such friendship is lasting. It is doubtful whether there is a member of the Druidesses who has a larger circle of fraternal friends than has the district deputy of El Dorado Circle. A letter received iIn this city from George H. Fabst, grand secretary of the jurisdiction of Louisiana, announced that the grand body of the order at its recent session elected all young men for officers and that the order In that State during the past year Increased 30 per cent.
