Negotiations aro on foot for the
building of a $30,000 building by tho
Ideal homestead of American Yeomen.
Plans for the building are belngjclr
culatcd nmong tho members and tho
matter will probaby como up for dis
cussion this evening.
Tho I. O. O. F. have served, notlco
to all tho lodges that now occupy
their building that they must vacato
by January 1st, 1015, and this neces
sitates .something being dono. The
matter of building nnd renting has
been brought beforo tho members sep
arately and nearly all of them favor
puttting up a building of their own If
they can get a suitable tenant for tho
first floor. The two matters will bo
presented at the meeting this evening.
Tho building that is planned will be
a two story brick structure of Gothic
design. The matter has been in tho
hands of a committee for somo time
and they have been seeking a sultablo
lot available for such a building as
they aro planning. While the lodge
is young and growing, seems to many
of the members to be tho best timo to
attempt tho matter of puttting up a
building and it is almost a foregone
conclusion that at tho meeting this
evening tliey will vote to "build.
