About sixty members of the M. W. A. fraternity met at the lodge rooms Thursday evening, and witnessed the adotpion of six candidates into the camp of woodchoppers. The new ritualistic work was by the local members, and although a team was not used, the work was beautiful and interesting to say ti e least, several new parts and positions having been added to flie old form, and the work was enjoyed immensely by all present. There were several “choppers” from Remington and* other neighboring camps in attendance. After the ceremonies of adoption had been discharged, light refreshments of sandwiches, pickles, ice cream, cake and coffee were served, and at about 12 o’clock all departed for their homes. There is another class of six or eight candidates to be taken in shortly and it is hoped to have out another large attendance at that time also^

BUYING FACTORIES.

Montjcello seems to be getting it in the neck in having factory enterprises. Its big electric auto truck company 'has failed to materialize, we understand, after the building was erected for them, and now the courts at Indianapolis have appointed a receiver for the Pratt Printing Co., an enterprise lately moved to Monticello from the Capital City at an expense of $15,000 to the Monticello booster club. An Indianapolis paper company caused the receivership proceedings, alleging that the company owed SBO,000 to different firms. Rensselaeris commercial club hasn’t succeeded in buying a factory yet, but still has her money salted down ready to bite when opportunity offers. ,
