A master's job is
never done, it lives on through the ages.
The Annual Installation of Officer's was held on January 14th and a quartet of young men from Clovis High School sang several songs during the installation, along with Judy Joe Reyburn, who performed jazz dancing and her acrobatic expertise. The hearty applause attested to the fact that all of the talent was enjoyed by all. Refreshments were served in the dining hall.
In April it was hoped that the Lodge could afford a new organ fro the Lodge room, but upon a show of the hands it was displayed that they were evenly divided on the idea. In May the idea was tabled indefinitely.
In June it was decided to have the cooling system looked at to see if there was any way possible to cool the dining hall. On June 15th there was another PG&E Degree. In July the annual picnic was enjoyed by all of those who attended but attendance wasn't al that good. It was suggested that Tollhouse Grade still scared most people and that maybe they might want to reconsider where they had it.
In August the Lodge was informed that they had once again made the "Honor Roll" for their contributions to the Masonic Homes Fund through the Grand Lodge of California, with contributions of almost $3.00 per person. They also decided to have the wiring of the Lodge looked into to see if it could be modernized.
In September there was another yearly trek to Big Creek to confer the third degree on a Southern California Edison employee. Several brethren were present for the degree along with approximately 75 Southern California Edison employee's.
November brought the 50 year pin of Bro. George S. Croyle, Past Master of Clovis Lodge, and he responded with some very amusing stories of the early days of Clovis Lodge.
At the Roll Call dinner in December, there were about 190 people in attendance, and it is written in the minutes, "thus passed into history another Clovis Lodge homecoming carrying out well the purpose for which it was originated and exemplifying the friendly spirit of Clovis Lodge."
