NUMBER 72. THE GAZETTE, WINDSOR, CONSOLIDATION D. OF R. LODGES Queen City of Shelbyville Comes to -Two Grand Masters on Roll Queen City lodge Daughters of Rebekah, of Shelbyville, consolidated Monday night with Eden lodge Daughters of Rebekah, of Windsor.
The ceremonies were held in Odd Fellows hall and Mrs. Williams of Salem, state president of the order, was here ir. person to attend to the work of consolidation. Sixteen members of Queen City lodge came into Eden lodge, bringing the membership of the latter up to 96. For the last few years Queen City lodge has lost in membership, and only a few faithful members kept the lodge alive.
On the other hand, Eden lodge is alive and pushing, and is noted for the excellence of its work and its social features. So when the Shelbyville folks decided to surrender their charter it was but natural that they should turn to Windsor for a lodge home. Eden lodge now boasts on its membership roll two past grand masters, John W. Yantis and Aubrey L. Yantis.
The former was already a member of Eden lodge, while the latter came in by the consolidation. Officers of the consolidated lodge were elected as follows: Belle Sampson, N. G. Doris Hartsell, V. G.
