Royal Archers Have Big Time.

The members of the Royal Arch Chapter of Masons had a big tmt in their hall Friday night. It was by way of celebrating a very prosperous season, during which toe newly instituted chapter has taken in many new and very de sirable members and has still many more on the waiting list. The most recent of these new members, of whom two were taken in last night, were Frank Leek, Ray D. Thompson, Gurney Jessen, B. N. Fendig, H. P. Kiplinger, Tom Burns, and W. F. Smith. After the work of the chapter was finished, all present, 26 in number, sat down to what was un doubtedly the finest banquet ever served.at a lodge function in Rensselaer. They remained at the table two hours, and during that time 20 of the 26 members present responded to toasts in h >rt but interesting speeches. After the next regular meeting next month, the chapter will close until September. -■
