The friends of the Odd Fellows Home
are doing some tall work in winning con-
verts. IL is splendid institution, but
there are some laws That are not regarded

be u ward of the Grand Lodge,
despite the opinions to the con-
trary. AS it is now 1t is practically
q foreign concern, one of many State
charities and has assumed the name of
the order. No institution should be al
lowed to use the name of Old Fellow
that is not under the jurisdiction Of the
Grand Lodge. Should any trouble arise,
it undou ubtedly will not, the stigma will
fall improperly ON the order and 1t will
suffer The Grand Lodge should have
control, suitable laws be enacted, and
every subordinate lodge should pay it's
share based on membership for the sup
port of the home. Allowances, of course.
should be made for these lodges, which
have so gallantly organized and main
tanned the home. The encampments
should be reimbursed for these contribu-
tions, but their grand work should not be
forgotten.
