of more lodges than could be accomplished
in any other way, unless he devoted his

the work rendered by the different degree
stalls at the meetings held the past year
staff pres ents something new to the other,
while the lodges which have heretofore been
unable to witness the work of teams. and
therefore have had but faint idea of its
beauties. go home with new ideas and de-
termination to make an effort towards i'm
proving the quality of the work which has
been rendered by them.

of the one held at Caribou, were attended

DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND MASTERS.
The District Deputy Grand Masters for
the past year. for the most part, have faith
fully performed the duties enjoined upon
them. To them should be given the credit
of the meetings held in their districts, as it
was mainly through their efforts that the
arrangements tor the same were perfected
and carried out SO successfully. / have
found them, with few exceptions, to be
quite proficient in the unwritten work, IA
milar with the general laws of the Order,
and fully competent to instruct the Subordi-
mates under their charge.
While the present District Deputy system
does not meet with the approval of all the
lodges, and perhaps ne system could be de-
vised that would, we feel that the results
are much better than those obtained in pre-
vious years under the old mode, the main
objection to it arising from the fact that the
installations are now conducted by the Noble
him for that purpose; the argument being
used that the members do not manifest that
interest in attending the meeting of the
lodge on installation night as they formerly
did, when the ceremony was conducted by
a District Deputy, and also that the work
will not be memoriZed by any officer SIM
ply for tie purpose of delivering it once.
! his may be true so far as getting out q
large attendance on installation night is
that the entertainment usually provided on
such occasions has had something to do
with bringing out of SO large number of
the members. If the Deputies were to make
their visits on installation night and per-
fom the ceremony they would nave no time

many new duties devolving upon them,

REBEKAH ASSEMBLY.
The committee authorized at the last ses-
sion of this Grand Lodge to prepare chart
er for a Rebekah Assembly, defining its
powers, performed the duty imposed upon
them, and the same has been placed in the
possession of that body. The report of the
committee will be presented at this session
which will give you full information regard
ing the result Of its labors.
APPLICATIONS FOR ASSISTANCE.
The Order in this Jurisdiction has always
responded promptly, and generously TO all
calls for assistance from other States when
the members of the Fraternity or their fam
lilies have been in distress, as the result of
some great calamity, and it is our duty as
Odd Fellows, by our obligations, and duty
which the strong owe to the weak, to extend
the arm of aid and sympathy at such times
But when applications are for funds with
which to pay off some Indebtedness, or for
the purpose of erecting building, we think
that the lodges asking such aid, are prsum-
ing too much upon the generosity of the or
ganization. Several dispensations to solicit
funds for such purposes have been asked
for, and the same were refused.
