SThe action of the Sovereign Grand b-odge at its last session in appointing fi
l committee to consider and report at thetext session 011 the subject of buildingm Odd Fellows' Temple that will be theermancnt home of the order and of the c'
sovereign Grand Lodge is being much:alked of. Many are in favor of urging ahe committee to consider this city as the uiroper place for building tla temple, it is v
laid, and steps nniy be taken before long e
;o bring the matter to the attention of j|he committee by submitting plans for t]aising a fund sufficient for such a proj- s;
.ct. It is believed by many that Wash- xt
ngton is the proper place for the temple,xotli on account of its location and theTact that it is the Capital city, whichdiould, from a patriotic Odd Fellowshipstandpoint, awaken the order at large to.'aver it above other cities.
