MASONIC CELEBRATION?JR. O.
U. A. M. FLOURISHING-PERSONAL
MENTION.
Scranton, June 29:?L e b a n o n
Lodge, No 48, A F M, celebrated the
birthday of St John the Baptist last
Thursday, June 24. Appropriate exercises
marking the occasion were
carried out, a sermon and a picnic
being the main features. The Masons
here were indeed fortunate in
securing Rev T G Herbert, pastor of
the Central Methodist church of
Florence, to preach the annual sermon,
which was delivered in the Baptist
church at 11 o'clock to an attentive
congregation. The speaker impressed
his auditors by his earnest
sincerity as he exemplified his subject,
"The Call for Steadfastness",
choosing Biblical characters as forceful
illustrations to carry his points,
applying to not only Masons but also
to other orders, the church and laymen.
The address caused much favorable
comment.
At high noon everybody was invited
to tables (under spreading
oaks) that fairly creaked under the
great variety of the season's delicacies.
including a large assortment of
cakes anil pies, iced lemonade, Irish
potatoes a to French fried, et al.
* " > ^
Alter tne Dounieuus le^ast uic

daughters' degree was conferred
upon a number of the fair sex. Inspiring
addresses were made by Rev

B Prosser and others.
Coroner Gun and Mr Tom Williams
of Florence were among those
who enjoyed^ and praised the dinner
served by lady Masons.
