Hear Master
Visitors from 10 neighboring
lodges were guests Monday eve
ning at Lebanon Forest Lodge,
A.F. & A.M. on the occasion of
tlie visit of the
Wor. Bro. J. F.
Tecumseh Lodge,
Wor. Master C.
ton and his officers exemplified
the work of the first degree in
a manner that drew forth much
praise from the distinguished
visitor.
One of the highlights of the
evening was the presentation of
a 5'0-year jewel to W. Bro. Fred
Kerr by the district deputy.
Mr. Adamson was introduced
to the lodge by Past D.D.G.M.
William Cann. Following the de
gree work the brethren repaired
to the rooms of the O.E.S. where
a barbeque lunch was served.
With Mr. MacNaughton as
chairman, a toast to Grand
Lodge was proposed by Past
D.D.G.M. Thomas Pryde and re
sponded to by the district deputy.

Wrong Impression
We think we should clear up
a misconception that occurred re
cently: Some bowlers are under
the impression that handicaps
will not be carried into the fin
als.
We checked with league sec
retary Alf Andrus on the matter
and he found the minutes clearly
state handicaps will be carried
through the entire season.
The final session will be a six-
game series between the winner
of each group. Points will count;
pins will count in case of a tie.
The handicaps remain constant
during the semi-finals and the
finals,* * *
We Blush In Shame
In our haste to get a column
in the paper late last Wednesday
night, we botched the 200 aver
age's report in a most confusing
and illogical manner.
Rone Francois gave us eigh
teen 200 averages; we printed
fourteen. Three members of the
Spares made the grade, not three
Butchers -aS we reported.
We omitted the names of Har
