BROTHER TO BROTHER — Clifford W.
Frady, left, outgoing Worshipful Master of the
Dunn’s Rock Masonic lodge, is shown presenting
the charter of the lodge, which is 103 years old,
to his brother Jack M. Frady, right, the incoming
Master for 1972. This is the first time in the his
tory of the lodge that such an event has taken
place and it is doubtful that any lodge in the state
has had a brother to succeed a brother as master.
The annual installation was held recently in the
Masonic Temple on East Main Street.

where peace
and love
come naturally.
Not only because the food is
succulent (and not expensive)... not only
because the accommodations at the Inn
denote a simple luxury ... not only because
the entire atmosphere at Connestee Falls
is one of supreme tranquillity ... but also
because the beauty of the twin, cascading
falls can't help but create that certain,
warm feeling between you and your girl,
even if you've been married
for twenty years!
Don’t forget, the falls are yours
to enjoy forever. So whether you come
to Connestee for a meal, a week-end or a
week, plan to arrive early enough to revel
in the simple, natural beauty of Connestee
Falls. And, if you have the time, spend
a little of it going through our private,
recreational/residential community, now
being built according to the highest
ecological standards. You’ll find that Peace
and Love come naturally there, too!
