TO THE CITIZENS dF ORANGE £ ORANGE COUNTY:
Take Advantage

lod weather to shop.
The trusteed of the Orange Community Chest at the eitd-of their week’s
endeavor have secured $27,896.25 in pledges and want to thank the citizens
of Orange and Orange county their very liberal support thus far.
The Community Chest is a business organization, attempting to take care
of the entire chafitable work within its jurisdiction. It says to those who are
loyally backing the movement tl^Athroughou tthe condng year, to tho best of
their ability and in the most busiml^l^f^wyypili^^thev will shield the
subscribers from additional requestsnWfonauons or contributions.
We are far short of the amount thee community as a whol#-equires, there-
fore we will use Monday and Tuesday to secure the quota. We want to im-
press on all those who have not subscribed the importance of helping us
reach the budget figures of $37,500. It is not money the trustees are looking
for, but monthly pledges to run throughout the coming year. *The amount has
been carefully worked out and the trustees are confident that with’the funds
on a monthly collection basis, it will be possible for them to take care of the
charitable needs of this community. To that end, we are laying before the
good people of our city a final plea to let us represent you in the charity work
you want to do with the full assurance that one hundred cents of every dollar
paid out will be accounted for.
It wohld not be amiss to say that any member of the board wanted the
job, but having been drafted hy the advisory board through a special nominat-
ing committee, there was nothing to do but accept. They are therefore going
into the matter wholeheartedly, pledging themselves to carry out the trust
imposed on them throughout the coming year.

ings In order to wive the nation from
serious financial emlmrruSHibent. A

Rntiirdny, December 19, 1925, will
ever be on Important event in the
history of Masonry In Orange, mark-
ing the laying of the corner stone
of the Masonic temple with the Im-
pressive ritualistic ceremonies of the
ancient order.
Notwithstanding the fad that
weather conditions were unfavor-
able and that the occasion was pre-
pared in a limited time, the affair
was regarded as a complete suc-
cess In every sense of the word.
There was a large audience pres-
ent. Including n lorgc representation
of various Masonic lodges and dis-
tinguished Masons of the state.
H. A. Beck, district grand mnster
of the twenty-fifth district, served
ns personal representative of Grand
Master Ed B. Bryan of Midland,
Texas, who was unable to nttend.
Those nerving ns officers of the
grand lodge In carrying out the
corner stone ceremonies were:
H. A. Beck, grand master: ,T, M.
Fomhs. district grand master: .1.
Gilmer Relf (Austin), grntld senior
____________ |warden; N. B. Powers (Beaumont).

secretary; J. O. Rims, grand senior
deacon; George L. Gibson, Junior
grand deacon; J. IT. Griffin, grand
fyler; Rev. K. T. Drake, grand cbnp-
lsdn; AT G. Davies, grand marshal.
The rorner stLne, manufactured
from gray Texas granite. In Ran

ner facing the' east the inscription,
“Masbnlc Lodge No. 12(5, A. F. nnd

son prepared hy the choir of the
I’reshyterlnn church will he ren-
dered tonight at and will take
the place of the regular preuihlng
service. A cantata entitled "Chrlst-
uyiH" about thirty minutes In length
will be the chief part of the pro-
gram.
The cantata closes with) a carol
entitled “O -Have You Heard the
Tidings." followed by the finale. The
carol calls upon the listener to hear
the tidings, find him and fall down

taken from a Norwegian folk song,
is a fitting close, with very ap-
propriately arranged music, the main
strain of which again Is “fence on
Earth.”

ning nre: Mrs. J. W. Hart, direc-
