Cornerstone Laid for New Home of Mount Vernon, Ohio, Lodge

Shielded by umbrellas, a large body of members of Mount Vernon, Ohio, Lodge No. 140 marched through the rain from their present Home to the site of their new building where Grand Exalted Ruler John G. Price laid the cornerstone for a $100,000 structure. Because of the weather, the greater part of the exercises were conducted in the Lodge room of the present Home instead of at the building site as . had been planned. Mr. Price delivered an impressive address before the members, praising the development and energy of Mount Vernon Lodge. Work is now going ahead rapidly on the new Home and it is expected that the building will be ready for occupancy some time next March.
