There were several competitors but the prize fell to the lot of Bro. 0. Austin, and Bro. Stewart presented the medal, a very handsome silver cross, on which the name of the Lodge, the name of the recipient, »nd " for zeal " was engraved thereon. The medal was from Messrs Littlejohn's factory and was procured through their Agent in this town, Mr Alf. Fraser. Bro. Stewart made a practical little speech on zealousness, and Bro. Austin replied in which he expressed bis desire to continue in the good work, and thanked the donor for his gift. One candidate was initiated, and the Lodge is in a good working state.
