In connection with our order we have an
insurance. which in my opinion, every
member should have, and I hope at our
next annual convention we will be able to
report majority of our members insured.
Brothers, if you will give this your atten-
ton, we can have q frst-class insurance;
as it is now, it is but little if any benefit
to our families in case of accident or
death. Use your influence to have every
member ofyou divisi oplt take our insurance
and you will find the blessings bestowed
by this insurance upon the widows and or
phans of our order is beyond the power
of man to estimate.
Brothers, our banners now wave from
the Atlantic to the Pacific, and from the
Canadas to the Gulf of Mexico. Its arms
extend to foreign lands; and the lessons
of universal benefcence2 are taught in the
far away islands of the trackless deep.
The brightest jewels which it possesses arc
the tears of the widows and orphans, and
its Imperative commands are to visit the
homes where lacerated hearts are bleeding,
to assuage the suffering of brother, bury
the dead, care for the widow and orphan,
exercise charity toward offenders, to con-
strue words and deeds in their best light,
granting honesty of purpose and good in
tentlon to others, and protect the prin-
clples of our noble order unto death. It's
intentions are peace on earth and good
will towards man. The light reflected
from the heaven-born principles lllumine
the pathway of every conductor and teach
es him to exercise these divine attributes
in the spirit Of their meaning "perpetual
friendship Offices
In conclusion, permit me to say: We
are about starting out in a new year, and
to you is committed the care of our order,
Let each one of you be actuated solely by
desire to do right, and to see that OUT
laws as laid down for our guidance, be ad-
ministered for the best interest of all. Let
our grand chief conductor find you ever
ready to do all in your power to advance
| the principles of our noble order.
And now, with heart full of gratitude
for the honor bestowed upon me by your
kind attention, trust that the future has
in store for the order many blessings; that
we will approach the highest degree of per-
lection, and rebound to the greatest good
on earth; an era of peace and good will to
ali mankind.
