Ouir Qjand, Secretary, left on Thurs

for th purpose of visiting the lodges
and encouraging them in.4heir work.
He. expects to be away about ten days
and we hope he may do much good
while, among the brethren and that his
stay among them may be a pleasant
one.
At the suggestion, of the Times-Visitor's
"Dickey Bird'.' a special depart

"Daughters of Rebecca," "Daughters
of the Revolution," etc., will be organ
ized at once to "hold down" the Odd

be held September 1st, when , the de

earnestly requested to be present. . :
If your lodge,, seems dead and noth-i
ing you,pan .do, will bring it to life, try
a little, crankiness on .if.. We knew of
a lodge once that, could hardly muster
a quorum at its. meetings for aYlong
yme; tieji-e was nothing said or done
when, they had a quorum except to call
the different heads of business and quit.
All present, and they , were, very few,
would wish something wold .tum,;up
to get a . better . af tendance, pr some
thing could bedone.yio arouse new lif
in the f-hing; but cqbodjr, suggested or
could think, pf anything.
At last two members agreed to play
ranks for a while. They, agreed tq
