K. OF P. ANNIVERSARY

     The fifty-first anniversary of the order of Knights of Pythias will be celebrated in this city by Friendship Lodge No. 37, Knights of Pythias, and the Pythian Sisters, on Wednesday evening, February 17th, in the K. of P. Hall. Committees are at present at work making arrangements for the occasion, and an evening of pleasure is anticipated.
     On the occasion a number of speakers will give short addresses, among them being Frank Stimpson, of Portland, who has been a member of this lodge for many years, and who has come up on similar occasions in the past. A program of music, vocal and instrumental, will be arranged, as well as other appropriate numbers. Following the program the evening will be spent with cards and dancing. A banquet is also to be a part of the evening's celebration, which, through the aid of the Pythian Sisters, will by no means be a minor detail.
     There is to be a class of candidates for the First Rank, which will be given in the fore part of the evening. For this reason the work of the lodge will take up not later than seven o'clock, in order that the work will be completed early in the evening.
     Members of both lodges, and their families are invited to be present on the occasion, as well as a number of persons who do not belong, but are interested in the work. An invitation is being extended to members at Centerville to attend and assist in the celebration of this anniversary.
     That details of the program will be more fully arranged and worked out later. Lodges all over this land will be celebrating this anniversary and Goldendale will not be lacking in the spirit of the undertaking.
