There is one more officer that the order
OF the knights of Pythias requires for the
good of the order, and that one is q grand
instructor, an officer who would be held
responsible for the proper interpretation
OF the ritual and one to whom the ID. D.
c. C.s could go for instructions in the IN
written work of the order. He shouid be
required to visit each and every lodge in
the jurisdiction, and to exemplify the
work in each. making such corrections in
the work Of subordinate lodges as he
might deem necessary to conform TO the
ritual The good results of this scheme

We can only advance one idea why the
majority OF the members of the order do
not fully understand the workings of the
order. What it is, how controlled,
wherein the benefits and pleasures lie,
and that reason is because they never en-
ter the portals of any lodge but their
own. Such members. who never visit.
certainly can know nothing whatever of
the doings of the order. What they do
know they learn from some visiting bro

then you will become well posted knights
and have some knowledge as 10 what is
