extra good.
All the different Masonic organiza-
tions are growing steadily in mem-
bership, taking in some of the best
men in the community. A few nights

accession in membership, and at the
meeting of Lion Chapter, No. 24, R.

nine made Past Masters and twenty-
two Most Excellent Masters. The
new officers of the Chapter are: L.

King; Floyd L. Swank, Scribe; S. W.
Reaves, C. of H.; John W. Barbour,
treasurer, and J. L. Rader, .secretary.

The Masonic organizations oi Nor-
man are certainly prospering and
more and more interest being taken
from year to year. They have one
of the most pleasant "homes" in Ok-
lahoma—a "Masonic Temple," that :s
a credit to the city and the order.

You are considering what to give
your wife or other loved ones as a
Christmas present. Has it occurred
to you that in this era of high prices
and cheap money the most practical
and worth while thing you could do
would be to provide for the comfort,
welfare and happiness of those yon
love during those many Christmase*
you will not be with them?
One of the greatest tolens of love
for tlio.se who love you would be a
policy of insurance upon your life.
Buy such a policy now; it might mean
"Happy Christmas" many, many times
over.
Think, then act! Don't procras-
tinate! it's dangerous! See H. L.
Muldrow or W. J. Hess and let the
great Minnesota Mutual Life pro

More than $750,000.00 represented
by some 200 policy holders in Nor-
man alone. An you one r.f tn? Ii
not, whv not? Fix it with Muldrow or
Hess, then it's up to your doctor.
You don't know whether you can
;c: insurance or not until you try.
Many cannot: you may be one of
them. It costs nothing to find out
and tn find out might prolong \our
life.
See Muldrow or Hess. Become one
