Attention Is called 10 the fact by Col. Hurlbut
that Camps are not prompt IN sending Ia their
quarterly reports and per capita taK. There Is alb
solutely no excuse for this, and IL caused by the
carelessness or wiful neglect OF Captains. Any
oneer OF Camp who will not perform his duties
violates his obligations and Is not A. to hold n
commission. The law In regard TO the suspension
OF such officers will hereafter be rgidly enforced
All Captains who fail ia having their reports sent
In promptly at the close Of the quarter will DO
suspended from Office. Reports for the last quar-
having their reports ut Headquarters by Nov 10
Will be suspended from their Office, which may re-
suit la the loss OF past rank.
There are number OF Camps In this Division
that are now suspended for failure TO make quar-
terly reports, aud in some cases they are nearly
one year ia arrears. Notice has been given that IL
IL tho intention OF the Colonel Commanding to
revoke The charters OF all Camps that are one year
In arrears on Jan l. Brothers, Il is not to the credit
OF this Division, nor Of the Colonel Commanding.
that we should have a long list Of Camps on our
roster, with n large number Of them practically
dead Camps. 1t will be far better for ourselves,
and the Order at large. TO weed out ali such mate
rial, and have only live, working Camps. The
Colonel realizes the fact that such action will give
the Division poor showing At the present time,
but he 10 confident that IL will be for It's welfare in
the end.
