NEW FOREST LODGE , No . 319 . rp H E Festival of the Lodge was celebrated on Tuesday , 11 th
I inst ., at the Lodge Room , Bugle Hotel , Lymmgton , when the attendance was augmented by the presence of a number of Visiting Brethren . The Lodge was close tyled at noon , and after the transaction of some regular business , the Brethren were " called off " until 3 p . m .
On re-assembling , Bro . J . W . Jollifl ' e the S . W . of the Lodge and W . M .-elect , was duly Installed as Master for the ensuing year , the impressive ceremony of Installation being performed by Bro . H . Doman P . P . G . S . D . At the conclusion of the ceremony , the new W . M . invested his Officers .
His next duty was tho presentation of a Past Master's jewel to Bro . 0 . R . Hayball , a gift from the Brethren to mark their appreciation of his able services in the chair during the past year , and Bro . Jollift ' e carried out this most pleasing duty in a happy
manner . Bro . Hayball suitably acknowledged tho compliment paid him , and trusted his successor would have an equally pleasurable term of Office . Votes of thanks were also given to the various outgoing Officers of the Lodge .
Later the Brethren sat down to a banquet provided by Bro . Dore P . M ., when a throughly Masonic evening was spent together . Both tho outgoing and incoming W . M . were the recipients of the heartiest of good feelings , Bro . Hayball being complimented on tho very successful manner in which he had filled the chair—and towards Bro . Jolliffe nothing but good wishes were expressed that during the coming year the New Forest Lodge , under his rule , would enjoy a period of much prosperity and progress .
o o o ARCHITECT LODGE , No . 1375 . rp H E regular meeting was held on Friday , the 7 th inst ., at the I Masonic Hall , Chorlton-curn-Hardy , Bro . James Morrison W . M . There were also present : —Bros . C . H . Beever I . P . M ., Alfred Pickford S . W ., Charles Rawle J . W ., Henry Nail P . M . Treasurer , Jno . G . Bromley P . M . Secretary , Thos . A . Holland S . D .,
W . T . Hesketh D . C ., J . Coupland I . G ., Wm . Rushton Organist , A . Redfearn , S . Tiller , J . M . Crone and E . W . M . Beebee Stewards . Past Masters Arthur A . Moss , W . Dyson Frver , B .

Bro . Holland received a cordial welcome upon his return from a lengthy residence abroad . The only business of importance which calls for especial mention was a proposition that the sum of five guineas be given from the Charity Fund to the Royal Masonic Institution for Girls . At the festive board which followed , tho usual Loyal and Masonic toasts were proposed and responded to .
Bro . Nail P . M . announced that the picnic held during the vacation had been a financial success . He reverted in pleasurable terms to the assistance which had been rendered by Bros . Pickford S . W ., and Chas . Rawlo J . W ., which drew from the latter the following very spirited remarks : — " I join with the S . W . in thanking you most heartily for the cordial manner in which you
have drunk our healths , and for the warm appreciation you have expressed of our services at the picnic . Speaking personally , I can only say that I feel myself competent to enter the Royal Academy , so proficient have I become in the art of drawing ( Bro . Rawle here referred to the drawing of corks , one of the duties undertaken by him ) . Although the day was wet , our picnic was a splendid
success . The rain descended from above , but beauty reigned below , and the inclemency of the weather only induced a closer inspection of , and a deeper delight in the charms of the fair ones who had accompanied us . And here I must make a protest against the conduct of some of our married Brethren at the banquet . When other single members together with myself were acknowledging the toast of the unmarried members of the Architect Lodge ,
we were rudely decried by the married portion . I ask our W . M . if our lot is not pitiful enough without being railed at ? It is all very well for you , married Brethren ; you have your bosom comforters , —we have not , and are indeed objects of your sympathy . Is there anything more sad than to make one ' s lonely pilgrimage through this weary world and be deprived of those pleasures , those
aeiignts , tnose joys wnicn tne society , tne companionship , and benevolence of the fair sex alone can bestow upon mortal man ? But I assure you , Brethren , that if our W . M . will only organise another picnic , and if he can induce those ladies to ooino again , in
