Knights of Pythias
The business of Tallassee Lodge has
progressed in a satisfactory manner dur
ing the past month. Several new mem
bers have been added to our ranks.
In our last official communication
(No. 14) from our Supreme Chancellor,
Chas. S. Davis, of Denver, Colo., he gives
us much food for thought. This com
munication was read in full in open
Lodge by the Keeper of Records and
Seal, as instructed. Extracts from it
are well worth wide publicity. Under
the head of “Past Achievements of the
Order,” he has this to say:
“Our accomplishments have made a
deep impression upon the body politic
of the people. The character of our
membership is unsurpassed. We have
covered a half-century of our existence
with seven thousand Lodges, and seven
hundred and twenty-five thousand mem
bers. Our financial resources represent
the sum of over twenty-one million dol
lars, and our contributions for relief and
other beneficent expenditures during the
fifty-four years of our fraternal journey,
in behalf of mankind, will total over
fifty million dollars. Pythianism is as
solid as the rock of Gibraltar. The
future opens up new avenues of human
progress in which the Order of Knights
of Pythias will engage its service. We
enter the new era in the world’s history
prepared to do our part in the construc
tive work before us.”
Under the head of Pythian Patriotism,
our Grand Chancellor has this to say;
“The mighty membership and over
whelming resources of the Order of
Knights of Pythias is pledged to the
Government, to render substantial aid in
the reconstruction work in which the
country is engaged. As was expected,
the closing of the world war produced
serious economic problems, that require,
in their solution, the application of
earnest patriotism, and if need be our
full measure of personal sacrifice. There
must be no surrender in spirit or word
to the unjustifiable demands of individ
uals or groups who dare to challenge
the Government and law and order.
Our fraternity stands for equality and
is unalterably opposed to class Govern
ment. Our efforts shall be directed to
perpetuate ‘Government of the people,
by the people, and for the people.’ This
declaration is the embodiment of Pythian
patriotism.”
Under the head of “Summary and
Conclusion,” he has this to say:
“The measure of service of a Pythian
is a thoro commitment to the work of
the Order, and a keen desire to serve
mankind. We must strive to increase
our fold. To this end, every member
should procure at least another member.
The greater our number, the greater our
ability to serve. A membership of at
least two million men, bound by the
