TINS Division 20 put forth an effort TO increase
the membership of his Camp. and the best posi-
bic evidence that Aid is hustnR is m appiioa-
ton Tor charter in which he is selected by nppli-
cant us Mastering officer. This IL the time Of
year we should boom little. So throw off your
coats and go TO work. for the good of the Or
DER while. Aids should attend each meeting
OF their respective Camps and help Captains i'm
maintaining order; Also that the work is prop
cry zone, ana especially that the election is
regularly held and that reports snme are sent in
nj once. Brothers, the question Of cap mark Is
liable to come up at Salina. At the tiflh annual
Encampment the "grasshopper" was adopted
our emblem. Quite n strong vote was cast for the
suhnoWer, aud the sentiment has grown until
am oil the opinion that n large majority of the
members OF the Order in this Division now favor
the latter. IL seems To- me that n large per cent OF
The population of Kansas point with far greater
pride 10 our " sunfowcrz" than TO our prasshou-
pers.' Besides, the sunnowcr is round and will
make splendid appearance, whereas the grass
hopper Is ungninly, and must be scrutnzed closely
