'derson, Tiler; A. E. Johnson, Sr.

Steward.
Every member of Constantine
Lodge is particularly interested
in this installation, for it marked
an epoch in the history of the
lodge. The new Master of the
lodge, James Anderson, is among
the very brightest Masons in
Texas. He was made a Mason
in Constantine lodge only a few
years ago, and by close applica-
tion to the work has risen step by
step in the different offices of the
lodge until he now stands as its
Worshipful Master, the highest
honor within the gift of the
lodge; a position which he richly
deserves and will most worthily
fill, and into which the members
of this ancient and honorable in-
stitution take pr^de in placing
him. * Lf.
