FORESTERS' DEMONSTRATION

- -------- -
Weymouth was unuitially excited on the Bank Holiday,
Whit Monday, for besides the excursions to Bournemouth,
to Breadwey. to the Warrior, and other mirts, a good
many folks who think there is no place like home, and
that home dear old Weymouth, were delighted that the
committee of the independent little district of Foresters.
the Weymouth United, hail determined to improve their
position and enjoy their own advantaies by having their
demonstration, fete, and gala, as near home as was con-
sistent with plenty of ellow-room, and space to foot it on
the turf. The affair turned out a great success, though
not a perfect one, for there • ere not so many at the
dinner as bad been hoped for, and the popular chairman.
Mr. R. N. Howard, was not supported at the head of the
table by as many gentlemen as were expected. In conse-
quence of this there WWI some bemoaning at the after-
dinner talk, and the brethren were advised not to have
the fete on a public holiday. Well perhaps as far as the
dinner and the speeches go, we might have had more
company and more talk if it had been on • day when
people hail nothing better to do than smoke and speechify;
but at least one good twilit followed—the speeches were
fewer, though by no means too short, and the brethren
escaped from the barrootn atmosphere of the tent all the
earlier to the fresh air and sunshine, and to the gentle sex
oatAitle. While we are on this point we may observe that
a public holiday is the most convenient time for numbers
of the working men, who must lose if they had to give up
another day, and there seems no object in fulsome
speeches, praising an Order whose advantages are fully
admitted, and which needs reforms as much as any other.
While we have nothing but praise at theme dinners, the
eternal optimism is apt to weary, and gentlemen, if they
want to do real good, should touch on the reforms require
as, for instance, the great question so feebly handled by
the Government—that of reducing the sick pay and other
benetita till they are proportionate to the payments made.
When the speakers, who ought to be the leaders of public
opinion at these meetings, explain to Friendly Societies
bow ituportant it is they should submit to compulsory
Government valuation, and either raise their payments or
diminish their outgoings, when they show how much per
member of average age ought to he the reserved fund,
and when they explain to outsiders that the showy regalia
of private members is not paid for by the Court funds—
when they are pointed to higher efforts and more solid
prosperity. when self-denial is urged upon members who
are a little poorly, and care to preserve their health upon
those who are well—then, indeed, will the members gather
at the dinners, and gentlemen who have something stimu-
as well as pleasant to say, gather round the festive
boonL Then, although there may be a little pepper and
salt sprinkled in the speeches, we shall get out of the
usual self praise and " butter-all-round " style, and
the veal sandwiches and sugared honey of' post-prandial"
speeches get out of fashion. As it is, the leaders of these
movements do not ROllll to advance sufficiently with the
times; they do not seem to know that there are more and
more every year to whom the reek of tobacco smoke is not
so pleasant as fresh breezes, and the llow of wine and beer
nit so attractive as lovely views and sunshine. So much
in support of our opinion that, in spite of the few at the
dinner, the fete was a success.
