The Royal Chef which cames to the Temple theatre McCook Nov 2nd the feature of the last act is one to keep them in their seats until the last curtain and which always receives an outburst of applause which would do credit to a big number in the show The reason for this is the rain of confetta which de cends all over the stage at the every end of the show Over 8000 yards of varied colored confetta or ribbon paper comes down from the flies enveloping chorus and principals The girls of the chorus are each supplied with several rolls of this confetti and they throw it out into the audience The

and Exhibition Drill of Sesostris Prize Winning Patrol Last Thursday afternoon and night McCook witnessed a most unusual dem onstration in Masonry in the presence and ceremonial sossion of Sesostris shrine of Lincoln in our midst Per haps no other town of the size of Mc Cook in Nebraska has ever had the hon or of entertaining this notable body and this distinction came to this city largely through the fact of the recent completion here of oie of the finest Masonic temples n Nebraska and by grace of the indominitable efforts of Noble Willetts The nobles were here from all over this section of Nebraska with a sprink ling of Kansas and Coloradan shriners among them numbering in total 150 The afternoon and early part of the night were utilized in conferring the de gree on 27 novices who wore initiated into all the mysteries of the degree which has earned the title of the play ground of Masonry At about midnight the nobles and former novices were seated at a festal board iu Menards hall presided over by the ladies of the Eastern Star who served a six course banquet of ideal particulars as the appended menu will disclose MENU Oyster Cocktail Cheese Wafers Celery Olives Cream Iiouillon Croutons Pickles KscallopcU Chicken Mashed Potatoes Cold Tongue with Jelly Peas in Cases Parker House Rolls Butter Coffee Perfection Salad Mayonnaise Wafers Brick Ice Cream Assorted Cake Cigars Mints But a menu ia only half of the delights of a banquet The toasts and toast- master and response must be reckoned with and the story is but briefly told below It was a season of keenest plea sure to all and was voted a memorable affair by all participants Illustrious Pot ntate Sbinn in intro ducing the toastmaster of the evening Congressman G W Norris graciously and gracefully acknowledged the appre ciation of the officers and members of Sesostris shrine of the most hospitable and lively welcome and treatment ac corded them by the Masons and citizens ot McCook He also read a telegram from Wichita Kansas announcing the institution of the baby shrine of American Midian in that city on that date with a class of novices of about 200 Richmond Rag captured the nobles patrol and all and the orchestra had to do it some more Among the old masters and classics vocalized by the nobles during the ban quet were Were here because were here I feel like I feel like I feel like I feel How dry I am how dry I am Each and all were feelingly offered to familiar tunesettinpp Novice vVolff to Novice Johnson I am all in To much Johnson Amen Hurrah for Norris That orchestra was no Rube organ ization if they did draer Joe out of the alfalfa to have him answer to roll call Few Nebraska cities can produce a metropalitan orchestra of twelve pipces the equal of the one which delighted the shriners Thursday night It was a champaigne banquet with out the popping of corks and the ab normal caputs in the morning Top of the Market Every stockman and farmer naturally seeks to secure for his stock the highest and best price the market affords Mc Cook is well situated in this respect in having a dealer who deals squarely with those who bring hogs and cattle here for sale D C Marsh is thoroughly acquainted with the stock proposition in southwestern Nebraska He knows the worth of stock and pays the right full price aii the time Change of Service Hours Services at St Patricks Catholic church have been slightly changed for the fall and winter months The early morning hour is 830 instead of 800 as formerly and the 1000 hour has been changed to 1030

sucker go Toastmaster Norris took to his duties as naturally as a canvas back to water with a brief foreword clever introduc tions and a touching concluding ode to the babies Novice Noble Culbertson of our city briefly welcomed the guests to our city in terms which left nought to be desired in cordiality and genuineness of hospit ality The response by Noble Quigley had the ring of appreciation and enjoyment of the efforts of the people to entertain and please His bouquet to the daugh ters of Eve was the conviction that in the order of creation woman was easily i first Noble Meeker of Imperial had an as signed topic but took complete avant Hge of digressive expediency and pluck ed amanv from the national birds tail and scattered them with painstaking particularity and vehement volubility Noble Wilson of Lincoln responded to How I hate to go back to a dry town Notwithstanding the toast masters citation of a learned judicial decision that six bottles dont make a case Lawyer Wilson made up quite a satisfactory case of some verbal prolix ity Our Wives received brief attention at the hands of Noble Robertson of At wood Kansas who incidentally made a plea for increased fraternity between the sister states Noble Cornell of Lincoln could have told a book full about Our Sweet hearts but didnt contenting himself with the Health Heres to our sweet hearts and our wivts may they never meet Noble Hill of Imperial made a satis factory explanation of Why I never married quoted briefly from Tennyson and concluded with an apostrophe to fraternity Noble Thomas of Harvard humor ously almost feelingly described his impressions as a novice the delights of the oasis after the burning sands and other etceteras His recent experiences bniVCiver constiainedhim to paraphrase How dry I am to How sore I am He then concluded his clever and al ways enjoyable post prandial remarks with a particularly apropos Health Heres to thee and thy folks From me and my folks Surely there never were folks Since folks were folks Ever loved any folks Half as much As me and my folks Love thee and thy folks Novice Wolff of our city uncorked his supply of facetiae in giving utterance to his emotions while crossing the burn ing sands and put an oratorical period to his toast by a glowing tribute to the Masonic order and the shrine in particu lar The toastmaster wanted Noble Wil letts to tell the boys how he managed to finance a 860000 temple out of his sti pend as a conductor for your uncle Jim Hill but George declined and subsided with a hearty expression of apprecia tion of the notble visit of Sesostris and their great ceremonial session here The resident Shriners are mindful of the courtesy of the business men of the city in decorating their stores in honor of the visiting Shriners and they use this means of communicating their thanks therefor THE TEMPLE THEATRE OPENED McCooks 60000 Structure Is Formally Opened Before an Admiring PubicA Girl at the Helm Witnessed by an
