nual Encampment of the o. and Q. will meet at
Helena Mont. Aug. 8, at 10 a. m. This is the first
time I'm the history of our Order that the far West
has been given the National Encampment, and
your Commander Is very DESTROYS of q large and
enthusiastic attendance from, Washington, not only
Of regularly accredited delegates, but of the d.
vision at large. No brother can attend n National
Encampment without feeling better for such an
attendance. May the Haichets lead in point OF
numbers and enthusiasm at the 18th annual En-
campment.
