Ancient Order Of Forssters.

This order has multiplied within the Pacific
Coast Jurisdiction since November 6, 1889,
over tenfold, there being at that time but fif-
teen courts. Now, there are Isl good healthy
courts. Eighty of that number have been Or
gained during the past two years. Tho man
agement of the order is unique among fra
ternal societies. Each subsidiary high court
has full control of the order within its juris-
diction. No per capita TAX is paid to the high
court OF the order by any subsidiary high
court; all that is required OF each is that pass
words and d1spensations shall emanate from
the supreme head of the order and that each
jurisdiction will observe the cardinal princi-
pies of the order in its workings. Thus the
universal thread is preserved throughout the
civilized world, and members while travelling
enjoy privileges which cannot be over
estimated.
