In Britain, a Lodge is a small country home with only a few rooms, the equivalent of what would be a cabin or cottage in North America or a dacha in Russia. If you have one of these in Suffolk, it would be a Suffolk Lodge. Or, Lodge is the name of a group of Freemasons, so Suffolk Lodge could be (and in fact is) the name of one such group. Or, Lodge is often used to describe a home for the elderly or infirm, so one of these might be called Suffolk Lodge.

We went to the lodge for our family vacation. Will your father be attending the lodge meeting (?) There's duct-tape everywhere in Possum Lodge...

JFK was the senator for Massachuesetts from January 3, 1953 - December 22, 1960. Oddly enough he won the seat from Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr. who would later run as Nixon's vice president against JFK in the 1960 election.
The Masonic term "Lodge" can refer to a particular local group of Masons that has been properly chartered by a Grand Lodge, to the building they meet in, or to an "official" Masonic meeting. How you close a Masonic Lodge therefore depends on what Lodge you are referring to. In short, the answers to closing each are: A Lodge meeting (e.g. a Lodge of Master Masons) is closed in a similar manner to that by which it was opened, according to a ritual prescribed by their Grand Lodge. Although very similar, these vary somewhat between jurisdictions. To get much more detail, you really have to join and see for yourself. A local Lodge, (e.g. Freemasons Lodge No. 999) would be closed when it has surrendered its charter to, or had it removed by, the Grand Lodge which issued it. A lodge building, often called a Masonic Temple, would be closed the same ay any other building is closed -- turn out the lights and lock the doors on your way out.

Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts led the fight against the League of Nations in the United States Senate. Lodge was the ultimate politician, and Wilson was not. Lodge knew that the longer the debate over the League lasted, the less the American people would take an interest in the ratification of the League. He dragged the debate in the Senate on and on. At one point he even read the entire 264 pages of the treaty into his committee's hearings. In the end, after Wilson collapsed while on his tour of the nation to gain support for the League, the Senate rejected US membership in the League.
The treaty established a League of Nations. Lodge did not want that because The League could establish international laws that America might be opposed to. He did not want America to be forced into anything and he wanted to protect American interests.
No. This senator would be excersising his freedom of speech, if we could sue someone for this, the courts would be full of these cases.
