KNIGHTS TO GET REAL BUSY AGAIN

Banquet and Smoker to Be Held Tuesday Night as Starter for Winter Membership Activities. Rensselaer Lodge, No. 82, Knights of Pythias, will hold a banquet and smoker at the lodge room next Tuesday evening, as an awakener for the fall membership campaign. Chancellor Davenport returned from the state K. of P. meeting filled with the Pythian spirit and hopes to start another membership contest by having the lodge divided with captains in charge. The friendly rivalry last year had a beneficial effect and brought in enough candidates to keep the working teams of the lodge busy until warm weather. It is also probable that the contest will conclude with a big banquet as it did last year. Chancellor Commander Davenport is especially anxious that a large number be present to enjoy the banquet ■and smoker Tuesday evening, Oct. 22.
