The Knights of Pythias enter-
tained their friends at their hall
" . on Wednesday , a large number of
invited guests being present.
When all had assembled , Dr. J.
. C. Yutzy called the gathering to
order and on behalf of the knigh
extended to all a hearty welcome.
, Dr. Yutzy's address was followed
j r - by a selection rendered .by a male
quartette composed of Peter Kaiser -
er , Simon Davies , George Hall
and Ned Towle. So much was
the singing of the quartet appre-
1 : ciated that they were compelled
" to respond to an enthusiastic en-
-
core. Miss Miner recited in her
, usual pleasing manner. Her
selection was very timely dealing
. with the adventures of a woman
who desired to become a K. of P.
The nature of the selection and

the pleasing manner in which it
was rendered , drew forth hearty
applause. A vocal solo by Sherman -
man Godfrey fo11owed. Although
a very young singer his voice impressed -
pressed an by its volume and pur-
ity.Vit ! : his talents properly
cultivated he has a future before
him as a singer. Miss Anna
Dorrington sang a very pretty
charmingly sung in the style
that has won for her more than a
local reputation. W. S. Leyda
delivered an address , taking for
his subject the history of the
Knights of Pythias. His refer-
ence to the history of the local
order was very interesting. It is
not generally known that the
Fans City lodge of Knights of
Pythias is the only one in the
state that has two charters. The
lodge was originally instituted on
lay 10 , 1874. It was later dis-
solved , but some member took
the charter and hid it away. In
September , 1884 the lodge was
reorganized and a new charter
granted. The old charter was
again produced and hung on the
walls. A special dispensation
from the grand lodge allows it to
remain side by side with the later
charter. Mr. Leyda closed his
remarks with some timely remarks -
marks for the good of the order.
After another selection by the
quartet the meeting resolved it-
self into a social gathering. Sup-
per was served and the guests divided -
vided their time between playing
various games and dancing.
Saturday morning the commit-
tees appointed by Sorosis and
Friends in Council to select ma-
terial to be sent with the educa-
tional exhibit of Nebraska to the

versity. .

lowing list of articles from Soro-

type written paper , on uCharacter
Building. " This paper contains
a most eloquent plea for dub
women to devote their time and
energies to this work , character
building being the highest aim of
women. Mrs. A. E. Hill who
has written several pfems which
have been printed in leading pa-
pers , which have received flatter-
