Basketball Pictures and information regarding the first high school basketball teams could not be found. The picture at the right is of an independent team that represented Lone Tree on the hard court before a team (either girls or boys) was started in the High School. In the picture at the right are Paul Schmidt, Hugh Dunn, Donald Green, and Louis Slaughter. The other team member, Lacey Brinkmeyer, was not present when this picture was taken. Lodges and Clubs The existent lodges and clubs of Lone Tree and the dates they were organized are as follows: Abner Lodge No. 535 (Ancient, Free, and Accepted Masons), June 14, 1894; Fern Leaf Chapter (Order of Eastern Star), October 28, 1896; Amega Lodge No. 728 (Independent Order of Odd Fellows), April 24, 1909; Hukill Rebekah Lodge No. 459 (Sister Lodge of the Odd Fellows), October 18, 1912; John L. Mumm Post No. 457 (American Legion), March 15, 1920; American Legion Auxiliary, January 28, 1921; Searchlight Club (a Federated Women's Club), 1912; Lone Tree Women's Club (a Federated Women's Club), 1950; Kens- ington Club (Social Club), 1912; and the Priscilla Club (Social Club), 1910. Fires Within 10 years Lone Tree had three fires which made it necessary for her to rebuild much of her business district. The first of these fires occurred on December 3, 1940, at 7:30 a.m. This fire, which was believed to have started by an overheated stove or a defective chimney in a barber shop, swept the west side of Devoe Street from the present site of the Lone Tree Savings Bank to the alley bordering V. Smid's harness shop. All buildings were razed to the ground with the exception of three walls of the bank building, which were later torn down as a safety measure. On August 21, 1943, another fire seriously impaired Lone Tree's business section. This fire burned the buildings from what is now the Farmers and Merchant Savings Bank to V. Smid's harness shop. It is amazing that Smid's shop escaped fire damages from both fires. The origin of the fire was believed to have been a rubbish pile in the rear of Krai's Grocery Store which was situated in the same location as the present Fellner and Marner Store. The third big fire took place on November 25, 1950, on Commercial (Front) Street. The fire destroyed the Case Farm Store and damaged several adjacent buildings. Although these three fires have brought disaster to the town, it has been rebuilt with many modern improvements. 15
