ROYAL MASONIC INSTITUTION FOR GIRLS .

ON Tuesday lasfc the prize winners of this year , and the first class girls , to the number of 50 , were very kindly entertained at Buccleugh House , Richmond , by Sir Wbittaker and Lady Ellis . They drove from the Institution , over Wimbledon Common , and through Richmond Park , reaching Richmond in time for dinner , at 1 o'clock . Sir Wbittaker had made all preparations , and intended

thafc they should have spent fche afternoon on fche river , but unfortun . ately the rain prevented this , and they had to keep indoors , where they amused themselves in closely investigating the numerous and interesting picluros and works of art possessed by thoir hosfc , whioh more than compensated for the river . Tea was partaken of afc five

o ' clock , and they reached home safely about 7 ' 30 , after having spent a most , enjoyable day , and one which will long be remembered in the annals of the Institution as a red letter day . Amongst the members of the House Committee who accepted Sir Wbittaker ' s invitation

were Bros . Thomas Penn ( Chairman of fche mouth ) , Sir John- Monckton , Frank Richardson , Charles Hammerton , Henry A . Hunt , Edward Letchworth , Peter de Lan ^ e Long , James Moon , and Hedges ( Secretary ) , who , together with Mi * s Da via and Miss Biuk , were entertained at dinner in tie evening by Sir Wbittaker and Lady Ellis .

Bro . Shelton was

elected VV . M . for the ensuing week . The Lodge meets regularly at 8 p . m . prompt , on Thursdays , in a spacious and well ventilated room , one of the suite lately erected for Masonic purpc . ies , and bids fair to bo numerously attended by brethren of fche South Eastern District of London during tho interval when many other Lodges of Instruction will be olosed .

A new Masonic Hall is proposed for Rochdale , Lancashire , a company having been formed , with a capital of £ 1000 in £ 1 shares , fco acquire the Old . Infirmary in Yorkshire Street in thab town , and adapt the building for

Masonic meetings and the purposes of a Social Masonic Club . There are three Craft Lodges and two Royal Arch Chapters in fche town itself , and these , with others in the immediate district , will doubtless provide sufficient support to . secure the success of the undertakincr .
