i. Mi!l a member in the great orgia
iiaiin. At the conclusion of the reading
of the hietory of the Kebekahs by
Miss Kaufinann. a most delightful
humorous reading was given by Miss
Hazel C'lugy. one of the talented
young ladies of the city, and which
was most heartily enjoyed by every
one present.
a very complete history of the
origin and purposes of Odd Fellow
ship was given by James II. Short,
district deputy grand patriarch, and
in which Mr. Short traced down
through years since the early Roman
conquest of the Rrithh isles the pro-
i gress of the movement that was to
i be developed into the greatest of
American fraternal orders. .Mr. Short
recited the differences in the Eng
lish order that resulted in the for
mation pf the Manchester Unity of
the Independent Order of Odd Fel
lows and from the membership of
which came the American order. In
the winter of 1818 Thomas Wildeyone and one-third fare (withj mini
and John Welch arrived in the Unit
ed States and learning that they each
belonged to the Odd Fellows they at
once instituted a search for other
members of the order and through
newspaper notices in the Baltimore
American secured a meeting on March
2. 1S19. at which John Duncan and
John Cheat am were present and on
April 2f. 1S19. Richard Rushworth
joined them and the five" members
made application for the first lodge
I of Independent Order of Odd Fellows
in the United States and named it
Washington lodge No. 1. in honor of
i the first president of the nation. The
Krand lodge of Maryland and of the
United States was instituted in 1821.
It was ,n 18 that the first lodge in
Nebraska was founded in Nebraska

I grown until it represents a great
membership throughout the state.
At the conclusion of the remarks
of Mr. Short the formal program was
closed with the singing of the ode
and the benedict ion by the chaplain
after which the members were Invit
ed to the banquet hall where a feast
awaited them and which the ladies
of the Rebekahs had prepared in a
manner that certainly was all that
could possibly be asked.
The banquet tables were decorated
with the colors, pink and green car
ried out in the three Jinks of Truth,
Love and Friendship, which were
made a part of the table decorations,
while at each place were the emble
matic napkins of the I. O. O. F. or
der and furnishing a pleasing touch
to the table decorations. At the seat
of the toastmaster, Mr. Hauler, a
fine birthday cake with the tiny
green and pink candles made a pleas
ing feature of the feast. The decor
ations of the banquet room were in
the national flag interposed with
the flags of the allies and the em
blems of the order.
During the progress of the fcas. a
delightful concert was given on the
Edison phonograph, and upon which
the masterpiece of the musical world
were made very realistic for the en
joyment of the guests and proved
truly that it was an instrument with
the soul of music captivated by the
wizard inventor.
The main feature of the banquet
was the enjoyment of the many good
things that the ladies had prepared
and nothing was omitted from the
menu that might add to the enjoy
ment of the members of the parly.
County Judge Allen J. Bceson was
requested to offer a few remarks by
the toastmaster and responded in Lb:
usual pleasing manner on the good
of the order and as the judge is very
versatile his remarks brought forth
a great deal of approval from the au
ditors. -
The members of the party enjoyed
a short social visit at the conclusion
of the banquet and then departed
homeward feeling that the Odd Fel
lows and the Daughters of Rebekah
had more than fittingly observed the
great anniversary of the order and
that the committee in charge of the
program antf banquet had certainly
won a high honor as entertainers.
