Although the weather was very unfavorable Wednesday, The Half Century Celebration of the Rushville Masonic Lodge was largely attended and appropriately ooserved. This oc casion, honored as it was with the gifted and talented speakers and mu sicians, was a credit to the village, an honor to the order, and instructive to the public. The forenoon was occupied by the members at their lodge room in con ferring the Third Degree on full class The afternoon session held at Mem orial Hall was not only entertaining but impressive to the large, apprecia i tive audience which attended. After a beautiful selection from Williams’ orchestra the session was opened by prayer, offered by Rev. E. A. Hazeltine. W.: M. Ira E. Farnsworth, in a very graceful manner, introduced the speak- ^ ers of the day. R.: W. E. G. Chapman, in his “Greeting” and address “ To The East ern Star,” eloquently pictured the Masonic Fraternity as a practical and elevating brotherhood, dispelling the idea, if such existed, that it is a mys terious body needlessly consuming the members’ time which should be spent at home. R.: W. H. S. Hutchins, of Canandai gua, in his “Response” congratulated the lodge on their successful 50 years, giving them his best wishes for the future. He referred to several occas- sions on which he had visited the Rushville lodge and mentioned the progress which he had observed at each succeeding visit. The Lodge History was only taken up in short as time would not allow a detailed account of the 50 years. The following briefly describes the history as disclosed The Rushville Lodge, No. 377, F. and A. M., was organized in 1855 with a membership of eight. Only two men are living today who were among the first initiates: James Hunt and Andrew Cadmus. James Hunt was Worshipful Master for 12 years. The following men in public life were members of the Rushville lodge: W. A. Carson, Member of Assembly, Maj. Frank O. Chamberlin, Member of Assembly; Charles S. Hoyt, who was for 30 years superintendent of State Board of Charities, was a mem ber of the Rushville lodge until his death. During the 50 years the lpdge has held on an average 20 communica tions per year. At the present time the membership is 90. The corner stone of Memorial Hall was laid by the ‘ Grand Lodge of the State of New York, November 11, 1897, Most Worshipful Wm. A. South erland, presiding. R.: W. Clarence A. Barbour, D. D., pastor Lake Avenue Baptist church, of Rochester, won the hearts of all as he presented the Character of a “True” Mason He said that if a man is to become a Mason he must believe something, and if true to Masonic teachings, he will be a good man and spend himself in its cause. The Masons who listened to Mr. Barbour must have experienced one^of two feelings: Pride, if they were true and loyal; chagrin, if they have been false to the noble teachings of this high order. Many remarked as Mr. Barbour closed his worthy ad dress: “I would like to hear him preach,” J. C. Davis, D. D. G. M., Seneca Falls, spoke on “Symbolic Masonry.” Mr. Davis very fittingly described the symbols existing in Masonry. Rev. C. E. Fry spoke on “ How Masonry Ap peals to a Minister.” Nelson H. Walbridge spoke on “ The Value of Fraternity.” A. S. Durston made many friends as he gave exhortations to “Young Men.” Of the excellent music rendered during the afternoon we would make special mention of the following: Williams’ Orchestra; solo by Mrs. Guy Kinner; solo by Miss Margaret Wil liams; solo by Miss Marion Williams. B a n q u e t. At 8:30 p. m. the members of the lodge, the visiting brethren, together with their friends, to the number of 225, gathered at Memorial Hall to the banquet. Miss Rhoda Abbott, the caterer, had spared no expense or labor in making this the most elaborate banquet in the history of Rushville. The following was the menu- Soup W a fers Pickles t _ Creamed Salmon in Shells Pressed Meat Saratoga Chips Fruit Gelatine Bread Butter Vegetable Salad Ice Cream Cake Brown Bread Coffee (Private Bankers.) i Rushville, N.

Border, After the guests had done ample justice to the several courses the following toasts were given and inter- « * spersed with musical selections; The first number was a solo by Mrs. Guy Kinner. Rev. C- E. Fry was first to respond to a toast He was not on the program but gave a very good impromptu speech. Chapin Church, of Canandaigua, res ponded to the toast on “Rushville Lodge.” He complimented the mem bers on their hospitality. Solo by Miss Margaret Williams. Dr. A. T. Halstead spoke on “Some Characteristics of a Mason. ’ He pre sented a beautiful type of man, es pecially mentioning the good deeds and qualities which do emanate from a true Masonic character. “One of the Secrets” was discussed by Peter Leighton. He likened the secret unto a lily. We pluck the flower and may destroy it in trying to fathom its origin but the secrets of its exis tence lie in the roots of the plant. So in Masonry we judge * from the deeds of Masonry, but the secret of it all is in the Lodge! Room. Duet by Mr. and Mrs. Guy Kinner. Nelson H. Walbridge in discussing the “Duty of a Mason as a Citizen,” said that a Mason ought to be a good citizen, the vows which he takes upon himself should be carefully kept. Solo by Miss Marion Williams. Mr. C. W. Williams in speaking on “Reminiscences” mentioned Washing ton and McKinley as men who were Masons loyal to their order. He said that Masonry embraces the leading citizens and master minds of the nation. He declared Masonry to be a means of reformation. In D. S. Brown’s toast on the “Ladies” he roasted the toast master, E. G. Chapman, He said that the evolution of woman was of vital im portance, both to woman herself and to the wofrld at large. In a joking way he advised the Rushville lodge to organize “An Eastern Star” if thtyy, had any trouble with their wives when / they came home late. R.: W. H. S. Hutchins, of Canandai gua, was a jolly speaker as he present ed the subject “Grand Lodges.” He said there were 132,000 Masons in New York State, and that they would compare favorably with any other organization. He exhorted the members to be particular in their selection of new members.

Lyon on “Uni versality” said that Masonry has an interesting history. Further he said “Masonry should make our lives ex amples for others so that th.e glorious principles of the order should become the rule and guide of the people of the earth.” A. S. Durston, of Syracuse, was called upon and he was certainly very witty in his remarks. He said the three Beacon Lights of Masonry were The Bible, The Square and The Compass, The concluding toast was responded to by Rev. E. A. Hazeltine. In pro phesying on the topic “Fifty Years Hence,” he remarked that he had the best subject of all as no one cduld dispute him in his remarks as the coming 50 years were in darkness. He said that if the lodge kept up its pres ent growth a temple would necessarily be erected to accomodate the guests at the next occasion which would be the Century Anniversary. Program concluded by a solo by Wm. Henry. i i
