EXTRAVAGANZA OFFICERS
So the Grand Officers of

The action of Court Hoboken of the
Ancient Order of Eoresters Of America.
in refusing to pay an assessment
levied by the Grand Court in vic
lation OF the rules Of the Order.
as is contended, was the sole topic of con-
versation in Forestry circles yesterday.
and the charge of ex-travagance
against the Grand Officers seems to
be general In all the courts. Court Ho.

several other courts are backing her up
in this fight. The matter has long

per capita tax of 80 per cent. the income
from this source ought to be $2,25O.

In the above figuring the cost OF sta

the reason that the ten per cent. allowed
on all goods sold, such as cards, rituals.
etc., is sufficient for this item.
From the fact that eight per cent. as.
