POTENTATES
MESSAGE
Robert Turner, Potentate
The Anah Circus of 2016 is now in the
history books. There were many people
that worked very hard to make this a
success. I want to thank Denny Hill and
the Circus Committee for all the long
hours they spent planning and organizing
the 2016 circus. I also want to thank all
the volunteers for all the hours they spent
working to make this circus full of fun and
fellowship.
May 11th Anah Shriners received the Eagle
Award for Organizational Achievement
from the Greater Bangor Convention
and Visitors Bureau. We were honored
with this award for all the years we have
had the Circus and recently the Feztival
of Trees. These events have helped the
Greater Bangor community attract visitors
from all over Northern Maine.
On the 17th we had our first Stated meeting
for 2016. The delicious food was prepared
by the Clowns and our meeting was full of
information. There was a good exchange
of ideas and thoughts. I want to thank all
who attended this meeting.
The Bangor Brewer Shrine Club had their
annual steak feed on the 19th. The steaks
were cooked by Duncan Brown and they
were practically perfect. On the 20th we
attended a benefit for the Springfield
Hospital put on by Waldo County Shrine
Club. Ray Young and his crew cooked
and served oysters of all types, clams
and steak tips. The meals at Young’s are
always great.
On the 21st Anah held their Pre-Screening
hospital clinics at several locations
throughout Anahland. We referred 13 new
patients to Shriners Hospital for ChildrenSpringfield. This was a wonderful day to
help children with services our hospitals
provide. I want to thank all the volunteers
that worked our pre-screening clinics that
day.
If you missed our Hospital Night on the
21th you missed listening to 6 patients
and their stories of how our Springfield
Hospital has helped them live a normal
and happy life. The Keystone Cops
cooked and served a delicious pasta meal.
The next morning on the 22nd we traveled
to the Aroostook Shrine Club to attend
the Circus appreciation dinner and had a
wonderful meal and a presentation of how
the Aroostook Circus performed. Again I
want to thank all the volunteers that spent
many hours to make our Bangor Circus
and our Presque Isle Circus a success.
On the 27th the Rainbow Girls of Maine
honored me with an invitation to attend
their 67th Annual Session at Husson
College. The evening was full of fun
seeing old Masonic friends and learning
how their year is going.
As I write this our Anah/Kora Joint
Ceremonial is June 17-19 and we are
working out the last few details so that it
will be a great weekend. I will give you
more news next month.
Until next time remember we are,
SHRINERS HAVING FUN, DOING
GOOD DEEDS THAT WILL CHANGE
THE LIFE OF A CHILD
Yours in Faith,
Robert Turner
Potentate
“FROM THE
RECORDER’S
DESK”
Larry L. Hersom
Recorder, P.P.
Welcome to summer! What a great time
of the year to get out and enjoy Maine and
what Anah Shriners and its clubs and units
have planned. Attend any number of local
town or city parades and support and see
our Anah units perform. We are all proud
of what we do, supporting our Shriners
Hospitals for Children and Anah Shriners.
For your information, the office will be
closed Friday’s, during July and August as
well as the first full week of July (4 thru the
8), as this is a slow week, with our officers
attending the Imperial Session in Tampa, so
we are taking this week to replace some of
our older computer equipment. The office
will re-open Monday, July 11.
If you have paid your dues and have not
received your new dues card, please let me
know. Your new card looks like a credit
card. If you haven’t paid them yet, you
may pay your dues by calling our office or
going to www.anahshriners.com and click
on pay my dues. Either way, they can be
paid by credit card or online by PayPal.
Anah’s new facility is available for rental,
for such things as weddings, reception,
meetings, and etc. If you are interested
please give us a call.
Have a wonderful summer enjoying Maine
at its finest and enjoy what masonry and
Shrine has to offer. Look forward to
seeing you in the fall and remember replace
yourself with a friend or relative. We need
to grow this great fraternity.

The May 10th meeting was held at
Pat’s Pizza in Ellsworth. Members in
attendance: Captain Scott Edgerly, Past
Captain Bill Sinford, Past Captain Carroll
Chandler, Past Captain Bill Geel, Runtz
Farnsworth, Ray Ellis, Doug Monson,
Scott Johnson, and Past Potentate Jesse
Thomas. Old and new business was
discussed. Parade lineup is getting well
under way. The new boat is taking shape
at Scott Edgerly’s boatyard. Meeting
adjourned at 7:00.
As of this writing the unit is headed to
the port of Orono for the Special Olympics
parade. From there we set sail to the port
of Belfast for June Ceremonial.
The unit is still looking for new
members. If interested in joining the only
boat unit in the northern hemisphere, call
Capt. Scott Edgerly at 664-0229; Past
Capt. Carroll Chandler at 497-2631; or
Past Capt. Bill Geel. Sorry if you can’t
reach me; my phone may be at the bottom
of the lake.
If you see my sternman, Forrest
DeMeyer, on the 4th, wish him a happy
birthday. Noble Runtz, I guess you must
have survived your birthday. I guess there
must have been sunshine in Jonesport.
Can’t wait to get there on the 4th, but I
suppose when I get there, the fog will be
in. Noble Runtz, have you ever had trouble
navigating on foggy days? Haven’t heard
anything from Bill Sinford-hope he’s
doing fine after his surgery. Hope to see
him and Holly somewhere on the 4th.
Those celebrating birthdays in July are
Forrest DeMeyer, Ray Ellis, and Perley
Merrick.
Honeymooners are Ray and Glenna
Ellis, Doug and Cheryle Monson, and
Forrest and Anita DeMeyer.
Well, it’s time to go. My wife is going
to buy me a new cellphone so I can keep
up with how the weather is doing in
Jonesport.

Shriners 2016 calendar you become

ORIENTAL
BAND
David Spooner,
President
Ceremonial this year was nothing less
than epic! The band had such a great time
playing with the Kora Oriental Band
during the parade, it was a lot of fun and
they are a great bunch of guys.
In addition to preparing for ceremonial,
the band has been very busy getting ready
for this year’s parade season. We have
been working to update our uniforms,
adding props to decorate the trailer for
parades, and putting on Casino Nights. In
June we did a casino night for Presque Isle
High School Project Graduation. The kids
had a lot of fun and the event was very
well attended by members. Without
question, it is shaping up to be a very busy
summer.
It was great seeing everyone at
Ceremonial, but don’t let that prevent you
from coming out to see us on tour. We
always make sure to take time out for our
fans, and remember you don’t have to
crazy to be in the band... We’ll train You!
ANAH SHRINE
DOCTOR’S CLINIC
FOR CHILDREN
The Shrine Clinic for Children was held
Friday June 3 at the Eastern Maine
Medical Center in Bangor ME. Dr. Drvaric
and Dr.Patel along with a resident doctor
Dr. Parisien and a PA with nurses and
technicians from Shriners Hospital for
Children- Springfield saw 58 patients
between 8am and 2:30 pm.
We had 6 Funsters , 8 Clowns and 4
Anah Ladies to help with greeting the
children, registration, escorting them to
x-ray and to their appointment. At the
appointment area we had 3 Anah Ladies
greeting and processing each child for
their appointment. With all the great help
we had that day everything went very
smooth.
This year we want to thank Hood Milk
for their donation for the milk and
Pepsi for the soda and water.
Thanks again to everyone for all the
great help on this important day for Anah
Shriners.

SHRINE CLUB
Noble David G. Beckett, Reporter
Greetings from Schoodic Shrine Club:
We had an excellent meeting and meal
in May at the Congregational Church
Parish Hall in Dennysville. We paid for
the dinner and the church turned around
and gave the money back to be used for
the work of the Shrine. We had a good
turnout, 18 members and guests. Our
Noble President, Jamie Gower, brought
the meeting to order and shared Thank
You letters from the Shrine Hospitals. It
was good to see Noble Buster and Carolyn
Hayward in attendance. Noble Buster
seems to be doing much better. Noble
Dennis Bryant reminded everyone about
the Shrine Clinics and passed out folders
with information on the Shriners Hospitals
for Children. Noble Frank Theriault
brought us up-to-date with what is
happening at Anah.
As we look ahead, our July meeting will
be held on Wednesday, July 27th, at
Eastern Lodge No. 7, Eastport, beginning
at 5:30 pm. This meeting is Nobles and
Blue Lodge guests only. We meet on the
fourth Wednesday in July, because the
annual Past Masters’ Night is held on the
third Wednesday at St. Croix Lodge in
Calais.
Our August meeting will be held on
Wednesday, August 17th, 5:30 pm, at
Lewy’s Island Lodge No. 138, Princeton.
This will be a Ladies Night with mystery
meal on the menu.
September will be the fish fry at the
Meddybemps Community Center on
Saturday, September 10th, at noon. This
will be the Potentate’s visitation.
Bill Gibson is still in Florida recovering
from his surgery. We wish you all the best,
Bill, and look forward to your safe return.
We hope to see you at Bingo next Thursday
night.
‘Til next time!

You have to forgive me again, I did write
an article for the June Anahagram But I
neglected to send it. I guess I had a little
miscommunication with my secretary.
This month I do have to report on the
screening clinics, hospital night and the
Doctor’s visit to EMMC. The screening
clinics referred 13 candidates for orthopedic
procedures to the Springfield Hospital for
treatment. Ellsworth and Bangor had the
most referrals and I had 1 from Western
Washington County. We would have liked
to have had more referrals but we were
happy with the number we had. Hospital
night was held the same night as the clinics.
It also was very successful. Doug Dulac
put together a very good program. Several
past patients, from Springfield told of their
experiences at the hospital and believe me,
there weren’t any dry eyes in the house.
Anah’s Keystone Kops put on a fine meal
for those in attendance. On June 3rd the
staff from the Springfield Hospital came to
Bangor for follow-up procedures on over
65 patients. This was a very impressive
sight to see. The patients were overjoyed
to see their care givers and the care givers
where just as happy to see them. Once
you witnessed any one of these events you
really understand what we are all about. We
all need to work harder to get more children
into our system.

Hello Academicians and Ladies,
The May meeting at Happy China
Buffet was great fun as usual. We
discussed several important items
including a lot about the June ceremonial.
Welcome to Ken Hanscom, our newest
member who will be joining us in the
Ritual Section. He is from Lincoln and is
a Past District Deputy Grand Master. We
look forward to having him and his Lady
Donna with us in the Academicians.
As of this writing we have not yet had
the June Ceremonial, so more on that next
time.
Donnie Copeland would like to thank
everyone for their outreach and support
during Gin’s recent illness. He is glad to
report that she has been doing much better
after her treatments and with new
medications in place.
Yours truly and family are looking
forward to a great summer. I’m taking
another UMaine course, teaching in a
summer youth writing program, spending
time with family in Bar Harbor, up at lake
camp, down in South Addison, and at Old
Orchard Beach, having company from out
of state, going to the Jimmy Buffet concert
in August on the Bangor Waterfront,
eating my share of lobster, and having lots
more fun besides that. Lauren is going to
be in her fifth play at the Penobscot
Theater in Bangor, and, in between
summer activities, Sally is selling houses
to beat the band.
Have a wonderful July everybody, and
may the force be with you. Remember,
never hesitate to contact me with any
questions, concerns, news, gossip, stories,
drama, intrigue, nonsense, or just plain
outright foolishness that you would like to
generously share with our Nobles, Ladies,
and Anah Shrinedom in general. I can be
contacted at rbilancia@roadrunner.com or
by phone at 989-2617.
Tri-County Shrine Club held their
monthly meeting on the 18th of May at the
Knights of Columbus Hall in Dexter on
the shores of Lake Wassookeag. This was
the 48th Annual Meeting of the Nobles
and Knights. The 54 Knights and Nobles
and guests enjoyed a delicious buffet meal
offered by Perley’s Catering. After the
Libation Hour, the meeting was called to
order by Grand Knight John Parola. The
invocation was given by Father Emile

Dube. Flag salute was followed.
Introductions of the head table which
included Knights and Shriners was given
by the respective heads of the two bodies,
Grand Knight Parola and President of TriCounty Arthur Watson. Special guests for
the evening was “2 Old Cops”, John Ford
and Mark Nickerson. Shriners that were
introduced were Unit Heads Scott Folsom
of the 4x4’s and Arthur Watson Head
Clown. Chief Director of Anah Shrine
Dan Costain was introduced. Ambassador
T Bob Buckland was introduced and gave
a history of this wonderful event. T Bob
was president of Tri-County in 1968 when
this event first took place at the Legion
Hall in Corinna. T Bob asked that a
moment of memory be given for Knight
Richard Bilodeau who passed away
recently. Dick was one of the founding
fathers of this event for the Knights. The
customary exchanging of checks by the
two bodies was held, each body gives a
donation to the other body, to be used at
their own choosing. Winner of the 50/50
was Noble Roger Chesley. The “ 2 Old
Cops” gave a very interesting presentation.
The audience learned of many tricks of the
trade by the former Game Warden and
State Trooper. Whether these procedures
are still used today, you can decide for
yourself. Until next year when we meet
again, both Bodies left after enjoying a
very fun evening. Always work on
MEMBERSHIP, it is the lifeline of both of
our Bodies. As the years roll by, our
numbers at this great event dwindle. It
would be a shame for this great meeting of
two fine bodies to cease because of lack of
participation. In two years, we will be
celebrating our Golden 50th Anniversary
of this event. Lets hope we are still here to
celebrate. Nobles, if you haven’t sent in
your Raffle Ticket Stubs for “COOTAS
BASKET”, please do so. This is a very
important fund raiser for Tri-County
Shrine Club.

We Wheelers celebrated Memorial Day
by parading in the towns of Prospect and
Bucksport. The American Legion and
veterans paid proper respect to our fallen
brethren in true military fashion.
Coming up next is the special Olympics
in Orono. These spectators are the most
truly appreciative.
We Wheelers still have not united for a
vehicle clinic. The number of break
downs on our first parade surely indicates
that maybe we should plan one.
Anah June Ceremonial is just around the
corner. We Wheelers are ready and will to
share a great time with our fellow Shiners
in Belfast on the 18th of June.
Judging by the anniversary list, its going
to be a very hot July. We wish Nobles and
Ladies Bill and Louise Holyoke, Sheldon
and Sandy Heath, Chuck and Nancy
Wood, Ralph and Julie Robshaw and Jerry
and Carla McLean the best of anniversaries.
We Wheelers also wish Lady Louise
Holyoke and Nobles Warren (Sugar Bear)
Calder, Jerry McLean and Cory Roberts a
very happy birth day.

boxes he can get. Past Potentate Geddes
Simpson and Carol(with an e) must be on
good behavior. Haven’t heard any news

in Quebec on a class trip. Noble Steve
Fernald also has moved to camp for a
couple of honeymoon weeks. Hope he
plans to take Lady Wanda with him. Noble
Allen Fernald is busy taking a gardening
class.
Remember, you can’t call me at the
moment; my phone is somewhere at the
bottom of the lake. I told Noble Forrest
DeMeyer, that was a profitable fishing
trip. Expect to see Noble Bruce Clark and
Lady Lois at any time.

Happy 4th of July! Hope everybody’s
got plans with family or friends. The 4x4
unit will be in Dennysville on the 3rd. On
the 4th we will be in Eastport, Machias,
and Greenville. We have to split the unit
to do all these parades. July 16 we will
be in Pittsfield, July 23 in Lincoln. In
August we will be doing Hampden and in
September 5th, we will be in Hermon. A lot
of small towns can’t afford big celebrations
anymore.
Our Golf tournament went very well. The
first place team was Greg Jorden, Kelly
Jorden, Brad Jorden, and Bill Pinkham.
The second place team was Wayne Clucky,
Dave Clucky, Kevin Sargent, and Joey
McArther. And as always, the Piscataquis
Golf course was great to work with.
THANK-YOU!
Birthday wishes this month go to that

S.M.A.R.T team
Noble Doug Dulac, Reporter
Hello everyone,
I wanted to update you on whats going
on with the S.M.A.R.T.team and
membership. First of all we had another
great hospital support night on May22nd!!.
We didn’t raise quite as much money as
last year, but it looks like we will be
sending $500.00+/- to each of the Boston
and Springfield hospitals. This is very
good. The thing I am most excited about is
that we had over 200 people attend. The
speakers did a fantastic job and I think
they helped us achieve our goal of
reminding people and making people
aware of how important our support of the
hospitals is!!! I would like to thank all the
folks who contributed to the silent auction.
Also to the Aides for serving refreshments.
A very special thank you to the Keystone
Kops for putting on a super meal. By the
way, they only charged us for the food
they bought. All the labor was free!!!
As far as membership goes, I feel we are
making great progress. Every year our
suspensions are going down. Obviously
this means we loose less members every
year. Thank you very much for your
support on that. Our other big job is
getting new candidates. The ceremonial is
in June and that is when we bring in most
of our candidates for the year. Please try to
bring someone in to this great organization.
If you are bringing some one in this
summer, please get the applications to the
office as soon as possible,so we can get
information to the candidate and his lady!
Of course we want you all to bring in as
many candidates as possible. Most of you
know that if you are a top line signer on
three applications you receive a very nice
Shrine watch. I do want to make something
clear about being a top line signer. If you
are a top line signer we, meaning the
membership committee and the office,
will help you in any way we can, but you
need to understand that it is your
responsibility to make sure the candidate
and his lady are well informed of
everything
going
on.
Including
Ceremonial and any other events through
out the year. If for any reason you feel you
can’t or don’t want this responsibility
please bring in the application anyway as
a second line signer and we will find
someone to sign the top.

The 2016 Circus is behind us and the

what seemed like endless hours during the
two weeks of the Circus. I say two weeks
because there is a lot of set up time that
most do not see. There are a few people
that we would like to recognize for there
over and above help with what goes on
behind the scenes. PP Recorder Larry
Hersom, Phyllis Watson, Janice Young
and Bonnie London. They are a big part of
making our Circus work smoothly and
help make it a success. The Circus was a
big success this year and though all the
numbers are not completely finished we
will be ahead of last years numbers. We
would like to thank Potentate Robert
Turner for his support and also holding the
snake. If we had a special recognition
award for the Shriner of the Month and I
was able to pick a such person, there is a
person I would pick. This guy will show
up for anything anybody asks and is
always there for the Circus Staff when we
call him. He helps us set up and tear down,
he helps us load and unload the circus
trailers, he makes cotton candy, he travels
to Presque Isle and helps. This guy is
always around. He is the quickest draw in
the east. If you haven’t got it yet, I am
talking about Andrew (Frenchy) St
Amand. Thanks for all your help.

Greetings Nobles, already mid-June and

you read this. Hope all had a great time,
time is flying.
Want to remind everyone our July
meeting will be a family event, bring your
children, grandchildren and spouses for a
barbeque, and lots of fun.
Our Oyster festival in May was a huge
success, over 90 people showed up and
was treated to a great meal prepared by
Raymond Young and his staff at Young’s
Lobster Pound. A lot of money was raised
for Springfield Shriners Hospital, with the
help of a lost Rollies flag, $ 1000.00 extra
was raised by matching donations from
Ryan Otis and Mike Giles. Thanks guys.
After the meal a large crowd gathered at
Rollies where another $1000.00 was raised
by generous people who wanted to see a
bucket of ice water dumped on Ryan Otis
and Steve Trimm’s heads, lots of laughs
and fun was had by all.
Our June 9th meeting had over 40 Nobles
in attendance and enjoyed a chicken
barbeque prepared by Duncan Brown,
Charlie Plourde, and Ryan Otis. Thanks to
all who helped.
Our August 11 meeting is a Divan
Visitation, featuring a golf outing and a
steak feed, prepared by Waldo County

The more people we have, the more we

new Shrine as needed.

Wow! What a month of activities we
have had. The Hospital Night Dinner and
Keystone Kops Annual Golf Tournament,
both of which were tremendous successes.
To those who have not attended a Hospital
Night Dinner, you are missing an amazing
evening. The food was great, the mood
was festive, and the atmosphere was filled
emotion as the speakers passed along their
medical and Shriner Hospital experiences.
To all Nobles, the Potentate would say, be
so very proud of doing good deeds that
will change the life of a child. To those
who have not played golf in the Keystone
Kops tournament you are missing a great
day of fun, food and camaraderie. Chief
would like to thank everyone attending
and for a job very well done.
Schedule of Events
Keystone Kops Annual Steak Feed will
be held at the Anah Shrine Temple, 1404
Broadway, Bangor, ME, August 12, 2016.
The schedule will be updated as events
are placed on the calendar.
Gun Raffle Tickets are now on sale so,
hurry… hurry… and get your tickets early.
Happy Birthday wishes during the
month of July 2016, go out to Kops Ron
Emery, Roger Linscott and Lady Brenda
Whitman. Happy Wedding Anniversary
wishes go out to Erick and Amanda Emery
and Mike and Brenda Whitman.
Congratulations to all and may you have
many more.
Now to the trivia question of the month.
Last month’s question was: The first
recorded watermelon harvest took place
where and how many years ago? Answer:
The first recorded watermelon harvest
took place about 5000 years ago in Egypt.
Pictures of the fruit have been found on
the walls of ancient buildings. The
seedless watermelon was developed in
1939, and Cordele, Georgia claims to be
the watermelon capital of the world. The
average American eats over 17 pounds of
watermelon a year. This month’s question
is about golfing quotations: Who said
“Golf is a good walk spoiled” and who
said “Excessive golfing dwarfs the
intellect”?
The time has come to close the “Blotter”
for this month and to remember “IT’S
ALL ABOUT THE KIDS.”

Here it is the first of June already.
Gardens are planted and growing and by
the time you read this, some veggies have
already been harvested. We finally got
some needed rain for the gardens.
Blueberry season is right around the
corner as well. I hope that you are
enjoying the summer so far.
WCSC member and PP Ed Pellon is
recovering from heart surgery and we
understand that he is doing well. Also,
condolences go to Helen Gooch, widow of
PP Gebo Gooch, on the recent death of her
son.
The June Ceremonial, a joint ceremonial
with Kora Temple, was held in Northport
at Point Outlook Resort. This is a beautiful
area for the event, there was a huge
attendance, and those attending had a
great time.
Plans are well underway for the
Washington County Shrine Club’s
Sportsmen’s Show which will be held
from July 29-31 at the University of Maine
at Machias at the Reynolds Center and its
outlying grounds.

I hope that everyone had a safe and happy
July 4th! Here and gone as you read this.
Already! I will have to report any 4th
gossip in the August newsletter. If there is
any that is. As several unit members are
traveling for parades, Jonesport on the 2nd
and Eastport on the 4th, I’m sure that there
will be something to open your eyes.
The Joint Anah and Kora Shriner
Ceremonial is just ahead as I write this.
Some confusion due to miss print in the
Anagrahm. To be held in Presque Isle even
though all events are being held in Belfast
and Northport. I plan to show up for the
parade Saturday in Belfast and hope that
the rest of the participants show up there
as well. Nothing like a little confusing
information to add to the confusion of an
already confused old fart.
And now for an important announcement.
Lost and not found! Seems that as we get
older, some of us are prone to be a little
more forgetful and at loose ends than

others. If anyone happened to arrive home
after the great convertible super supper in
May with an extra Shrine tie with Masonic
tie clip, please make contact with Noble
Alden Tracy or better yet, his lady Pam.
Some people bear more watching than
others. Alden, if in the future you feel the
need to undress at a public event, maybe it’s
time that you get an extra keeper to look
after you and your clothing.
One of our unit founders showed up at
our house the other night with a new ride.
A beautiful silver with blue top Corvette
convertible. When you see it, I think that
you will agree that is one smoking, sweet
looking ride. We are all happy to have
Noble John Shea in our unit and to have
such a snappy ride!
Lady Carol Miller and my wife Lady
Lorraine both share a birthday this month.
I don’t know about you Dale, but I need to
get out and do some shopping. Got to keep
‘em happy, don’t ya know. But wait, don’t
think that there has been a name change yet
has there? That means not so much pressure
for you Dale. Right? Happy birthday to
both of you Ladies and also happy day to
any other of our Shrine family celebrating
this month. No wedding anniversary
congratulations to announce. Need to up
date my list again, so if I’ve slighted you,
holler.
Has any body else besides me noticed
how much more colorful that the Anahgram
has become in the past year? Good job to all
involved in producing a truly professional
publication. Thankyou!
That’s enough for another month. Be sure
to keep all in need in your thoughts and
prayers and keep your eyes open for those
members going around topless.
It’s all about the kids!

Twenty-five Nobles of NPSC gathered
together June 1, 2016 at the home of the
Rockabema Snow Rangers, in Patten, for
our monthly meeting. A nice social time
was enjoyed with lots and lots of deviled
eggs. Followed by the snow club’s very
good baked stuffed chicken breast.
President Elwell called the meeting to
order at 7 p.m. and led the nobles in the
Pledge of Allegiance with the blessing
offered up by Noble Ken Perkins.
Cards with get well wishes were circulated
to be sent to Noble Edward “Inky”
McCafferty, Noble Raleigh Hanscom and
Noble and Mrs. Wallace Harvey. “Inky”
has recently undergone back surgery in
Florida; cards would be welcomed. His
address is: 11044 Mustang Drive, Dade
City, FL 33525. Wallace and Joy will not
be back in the Patten area until mid-July
because of surgeries each of them have had.
Their address is: 7118 Fitzpatrick Avenue,
Brooksville, FL 34613. Raleigh’s illness
is keeping him under the weather. Once
again a card or a phone call would be nice;
733 Mohawk Road, Lincoln 04457 or 794
-8929.
The 50/50 was won by guess who? Two
months in a row!! Perhaps the Club should
have him pick up a few megabucks tickets
for us. He again gave it back to the Club
except for his donation. Thank you Noble
Burt Weed.

I reported that circus ad and ticket sales
totaled out at $8,802.50 for this circus year.
There has been some discussion around
the topic of including the ladies in this June
meeting. Thus, President Elwell explained
such and called for a show of hands to
indicated approval of this idea. A majority
of the Nobles present voted favorably so
from now on our Ladies will be included in
this meeting. The president has called for a
meeting of the directors and the nominating
committee to take place on July 28 at 2 p.m.
on the shore of the Pond. President Elwell
reminded all of the Nobles about the June
joint ceremonial to take place in Rockport
at Point Look Out on June 17 and 18.
The Potentate and Divan will be visiting
NPSC in November this year rather than
our annual meeting in October. This
change is at the request of Potentate Bob
Turner. That meeting should take place at
the Lincoln Snow Hounds Club in Lincoln.
However, the meeting places will be firmed
up at the July meeting of the directors
mentioned above.
On April 29, I chaperoned the Opal
Myrick 4th grade on their bus trip to the
circus. What a great time I had with these
kids during the circus and afterward during
supper at Pizza Hut. Shortly after that trip
I received a hand written letter from each
of those 4th graders. I do hope that a few
of those letters are included in this edition
of the Anahgram.
If any Noble of NPSC would like to step
forward and take on the role of Circus
Director or the position of monthly bar
tender please give me a call. We can
discuss either position that may hold
your interest. I will offer you all kinds of
assistance. My numbers are 746 5766 and
746 9988. There is probably much more
for me to write about but this is getting long
already. So until the next time remember
to keep Masonry and Shrine Dom in your
life.

Polar bears are left handed.
I had the wonderful pleasure to meet
Mrs. Marion Perry who is the widow of
David Perry who was once the Editor
of the Anahgram and was a member
of the Second Section. Mrs. Perry is a
young “96” years of age she was born
December 28, 1919, and remembers
most of the Anah Shrine events she
and her husband attended. She loves
to do puzzles and had one on the
table she was working on. She told
me she was the Secretary at the First
Congregational Church in Brewer for
many years. She loved to type on the
old manual typewriter to do out the
church bulletins. Mrs. Perry and her
husband David did their typing in the
office they had in the basement of their
Brewer home. They each used half of
the office for their work space. David
received the Anahgram articles by
mail and then typed them out and then
they were taken to the printers. David
worked at Sears Roebuck for 35 years.
They had 2 sons that kept them busy.
They lost one son Donald Lee several
years ago. She is helped by her son
Richard Wayne Perry of Orrington with
things she needs and many exciting day
trips out with him and especially when
they go out to eat. She said she loved
July 2016
to read the quotes at the bottom of each
page in the Anahgram.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Perry attended
Brewer High School, Marion graduated
in 1936 and David graduated in 1937,
she was very proud to be a Brewer
alumni. They loved to dance at the
Shattow in Bangor and at all the Shrine
events. Two of her fondest memories
were of their Shrine trips with fellow
Shriners to Rio de Janeiro and Hawaii.
They were good friends with the family
of our next Editor Gerald Harvey.
Mrs. Perry reads our Anahgram
monthly and wishes she knew more
of the people in it. She remarked
she still sees some of the faces she
recognizes in the Anahgram with one
being Sonny Crocker. She visited us
a few weeks ago to see the new Anah
Shrine building on Broadway with her
friend Herb Hopkins of the Anah Band
bringing her here. She said she was so
impressed with our new Anah home.
Mrs. Perry is very active and said she
would like to hear from all the Shriners.
She said they could send her a card at
her address;
