Steubenville (Ohio) Lodge Starts Movement for New Home

A movement toward a new Home for Steubenville (Ohio) Lodge, No. 231, was launched at an enthusiastic meeting of the members recently. The building project, delayed for many years, was approved by more than 200 members and indications are that the bulk of the membership will lend its support. Announcement was made by Exalted Ruler Earl Applegate that a committee would be named to make a canvass of the members to determine whether or not the project can be adequately financed at this time. Approximately 870,006 will have to be pledged by the members to put the building plans across, that sum being needed to complete the new home fund. Steubenville Lodge owns a suitable and valuable site at Fourth and North Streets. In the event of a favorable report from the committee, and after approval has been obtained from the Grand Lodge officers, plans will be laid for building this year.
