Wheeler, who for three great suns was)its deputy, had decided to withdraw. In token of its appreciation of the faithful work that she during that time did for the coun- cil there was an address to her and then the presentation of a set of silver teaspoons. Miss Lillie Unger, the past -Pocahontas of this council, who recent- ly assumed the station of the prophet- €ss, is an energetic member who has done much to bring the circle into the front rank and who is ever ready to work for its advancement.

The new offi- cers then conferred the first degree on twelve candidates in a most creditable manner. M. H. Ludlow, who was in- stalled as deputy degree master, has of late been making remarkable prog- ress in the order. He is an unostenta- tious individual, but his case is one that shows that merit wins. He has, by his course in the lodge and other branches manifested that he is a thor- ough Odd Fellow, in act as well as spirit, and his zeal for the order and his ability have in a short time brought him to the front in the several branches of Odd Fellowship. i Knights of Honor.
