Michael Wagner Becomes A Knight of Columbus.

Michael Wagner, court reporter, was initiated as a Knight of Columbus Sunday, taking the work at Fowler. Accompanied by ~E. P. Honan, Dan Morrissey and Lon Healy he went to Fowler in an automobile and there were almost fifty other candidates in waiting for the work. The Lafayette council conferred the first and second degrees and the IndianapolhPcouncil the third degree. A banquet was served in academy hall, about 500 being seated at the banquet board. Attorney Honan iresponded to the toast, “Moral Courage,” and convulsed the large audience with his humor. Other toasts were offered, and Rev. J. VanNeioe Dandy, pastor of the Presbyterian church, delivered a splendid eulogy on “Christianity,” and paid a glowing tribute to the women who took part in the work.
