Five Masonic bodies, one Monday
1953
Notices for a single Monday in February 1953 list five different Masonic organizations meeting at the Reagan Temple: lodge, chapter, council, Eastern Star, and the teenage boys of DeMolay. Eighteen years after the foreclosure, the building’s Masonic calendar was as full as some purpose-built temples ever managed.
