This is scanned from the original 8 x 10 Cabinet photo.  It is a posed group photo of the Shriner's of Corinth.  The members who portray clowns are in various states of costume and are not wearing a fez.  Other members are in regular business dress. They are wearing their ceremonial fez attire. I am told that they played in the Shriner's band.    I think this photo was taken between 1920 and 1926 when my grandfather, John Benny, (back row, 6th from left with arms crossed) died.

Additional Comments: If anyone can help identify the other members of the group, I'd greatly appreciate it.
