On July 29, Mr. Forbes celebrated his fiftieth anniversary as a member of Niagara Lodge, and presented _ to that lodge an exact duplicate of the gavel which he presented to GRIMSâ€" BY Lodge on Friday night. When but yet a young boy, Mr. Forbes and his two chums, Thos. P. Blaine (later jailer of Lincoln counâ€" ty) and John R. Munro, made up their minds that as soon as they became of age that they would become Maâ€" sons. They also decided that they would all return to the old Town of Niagaraâ€"providing any of them had moved awayâ€"and all join there at the one time. e Mr. Forbes moved to GRIMSBY but true to their promise, the three young lads or young men as they were then, gathered to gether on the twentyâ€" ninth day of July, 1864, and were iniâ€" tiated into the mysteries of Masonry.

Clarke, N. J. Teeter, J. W. Duvall and A. R. Henry. Ancther feature of Mr. Forbes‘ membership is the fact that he is the only member who has ever paced any token of his regards on its tracing board whether from vanity or otherâ€" wise, in presenting in 1874 the _ set of marble gavel stones now on the peâ€" destals of the principal. officers and now the gavel commemorative of his fiftieth anniversary. Mr. Forbes has been a Mason for. a half century and during all that time has constantly worked for the better ment and strengthening of the _ Maâ€" sonic order and the great honor beâ€" stowed on him on Friday evening was a well deserved one. A Members from Hamilton, Toronto, St. Catharines, Niagaraâ€"onâ€"thaâ€"Lake and other lodges were present and a most enjoyable evening was spent. Mr. Forbes‘ present to the lodge was a beautiful oak gavel, â€"trimmed with silver and suitably inscribed.

To be a continuous resident of one town for a period of fifty years is an honor that any man can _ feel proud of, but to be a continuous memâ€" ber of a Masonic Lodge for a period of fifty years is an honor that falls to but few men, and we are happy to say that Postmaster Wm. Forbes is one of the few. The best manner in which we can describe to you the late gentleman‘s connection with the Masonic order, would be to reâ€"print the article from the INDEPENDENT of Feb: 25, 1914, written in commemoration of his 50th anniversary as a member of" GRIMSâ€" BY Lodge, A.

The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Mr.:Curry, in the bow window of the drawing room, which Continentâ€"wide celebration, and one which they should gratefully remem ber in future years, the Principals of the High and Public Schools, Messrs, Amos and Forman, have arâ€" ranged a celebration of the Century of Peace which has existed between our neighbors to the South and ourâ€" selves will take place in the High School Concert Hall nezt Monday afternoon, at half past three o‘clock, when an address will be= given by Rev: J..S8.

During the evening speeches were made by many members ofâ€" outside lodges including Bros. Wardrope, Grifâ€" fith of Hamilton, Bros. John Pearson of Toronto and many others. Bro. Wm. Sells of Niagara Falls and G. R. Nelles. of St. Catharines, were presâ€" ent as his only relatives. In order that our youthful popula tion might be able to take part in a BY lodge and this, along with his unique record of being a member for over fifty years is what prompted the members of GRIMSBY Lodge to give him such a fine reception on Friâ€" day evening. Fifty years a Mason is an enviable record and one that any man would be proud of and one that falls to the lot of but few men. & CENTURY OF PEAGE DECLINE SUBSTITUTES AnNTREEZ E w VNTIO , W oNnT ’ .-WN'D:GN mM uET oopay P m&a ontTo .0 ;onReAb CH T3 iz ; A A\ / e t $ :' PP hm . & [Â¥3 Y $ ‘é' ts "ad 3 e : e Jn \ y s ks s 3 | l "l, C o t d 4 mt 11,~, 8 QUICK FLOODâ€"KAY CELEBRATICN pURE Main Street West Extra fine bleached cotton, suitable for undergarments, 24â€"in wide, special at. .:. i.s..!..s f Rew ie RUliy.aiyies cauea, May Bride, extra fine bleached cotton, beautiful 12 goods.s.:.$.....1..a...0s. .01 mikaonae se aan HVEL TT . .4 + kandsome white frock with touches of pink and carried a rustic basket of pink carnations.
