Phillips Jr. is not only tho goat of the lodge to which he lends dignity, but he is a real goat of the bucking variety, and made his advent into Payson riding on the running board of an automobile, accompanied by several members of the Springville lodge. It was not with dignity, however, that Phillips, Jr., paraded up Main street, in tho wake of the band, but in extremely undignified manner, tie made strenuous efforts to escape from the leashes held by his keepers, the reason for such undignified action being te fact that an Odd Fclkw had poured a few drops of irritating solution on his back in close proximity to his wagging appendage.
