Loyal Order of Moose Moves Into New Home.

The-fcoygp-QTder of Moose have just moved into their new quarters n the Nowels House. They have three large rooms for their new home apd one larger room for their lodge room, making ideal quarters for the Moose home. The Hoopeston team was over and put on the degree work, taking in the following new members: William W. Lee, Ben D. McColly, Everet Marlin, Wm. M. Chappell, B. K. Zimmerman, Henry Brooks, Alec Lassiter, A. C. Lassiter, Russell Timmons, Jesse Nichols, Len Pevler, Andrew Wheeler, Sidney Peters, August Olson, Isaac Wiltshire, Sam Perkins, A. D. Hershman, J. H. Branson, John Zimmer, Charles Weiss, Paul Stoudt, Bert Hall, Charles M. Hudson, D. S. Makeever, Frank Hoover, C. M. Blue, and Frank Critser. There were over one hundred members to see this degree work and a royal good time was reported. The Loyal Order of Moose are certainly to be congratulated upon their new home and the noble work they are doing. Each member has a key and is entitled to the privileges of the home at any and all times. It 13 the object and purpose of this order to take in five hundred members at Rensselaer and from the looks of things it would appear that this number isjiot an impossibility. They expect to take in a new class in the near future as the charter is now open and new members can join for $5.00, whereas $25 is the usual fee. They will have the same team from Hoopeston come over when the next new cl ass is. formed as the — work -dtme-”by-4he~Hoepes4en—rteam—wa»— highly satisfactory.
