On March 27, 1947 Past Masters night was enjoyed by many and all living Past Masters were there except for 2. Bro L. E. Weldon the oldest living Past Master and charter member remarked, "That Clovis Lodge has grown beyond the dreams of the organizers back in 1910."

In April all the bids for the cottage were rejected and it was listed with a real estate agent for 30 days at the price of $2000.00.

Kastner to the sublime degree of Master Mason.

In August the new safe arrived and the old one was sold for $75.00. This is the same safe we have today and measures over 6 feet in height and over 4 feet in width, and our backs hope it never needs to be moved. hehehe
