Foresters.
The meeting room of Court Ashley at
the Avenue House presented a very pretty
appearance last Monday night. Instead
of finding the room filed only with men,
I found a number of the wives, sisters and
s~weethearts of the aforesaid men enjoying
which Chief Ranger John F. Kelly was
making. Brother Kelly was telling what
he knows about the ~order-which is not
much, and what he would like to know
which is a great deal. for 1t Will
be remembered that he has only
been in the order a few months. From
what he does know, he said, he thinks it
the greatest order on earth. He laid the
advantages of joining before his hearers
and urged them to come in. An address
of a similar nature was made by FL II.
Cullen. of Court Hoboken. Through be-
ing a much older Forester his remarks
upon it's history were more lengthy than
Mr.. Kelly's. Short speeches were also
made by Chief Crissy and Deputy High
Chief McHale. The officers were then in
stalled, SO that all might get an idea Of
the working of the order. There were a
large number of representative ForeSterS
present on the occasion.
