Though the Masons of Flint Creek Lodge #11 had met as early as 1867, they apparently had no lodge building of their own until this one was built in 1911. This 147 year old (as of 2014) lodge still meets on the upper floor of the temple

This clock was obviously placed by the Masons as it has a sign advertising their presence. It is a two faced clock, mounted on a corner building over the sidewalk.

Unless there is a 4 1/2 hour time difference between the two faces, which is unlikely, we would have to say that the clock no longer keeps accurate time.

Meetings in Philipsburg of Flint Creek Lodge No. 11 date back to 1867. This structure, built in 1911, provided a permanent home for the community-oriented fraternal organization. Chambers for lodge meetings occupy the entire top floor. The ground floor originally housed the Philipsburg State Bank, and the outside entry to the bank’s old vault still remains intact. A chamfered corner complemented by visual emphasis on horizontal lines of banded masonry reflect the period.
