Brothers, Sisters and Friends:
Yesterday I held the elections at the Woodrow Ayers District No. 9's Annual Convention.
It makes me very proud that the brothers out numbered the sisters in their Joint Session.
District No. 9 was the first district convention of the year as they have set the tone with a souvenir journal, a good opening and a good memorial ceremony.
My hats off to District Master Shirden, City Council President David Bowens and the brothers of this fine district.
Fraternally,
Ill. Raymond L. Smith, 33°
