What Veterans Are Doing for the
Good Of the Order.

Commander A. u. Evans. Of Iowa, in last
General Orders makes an earnest plea for an
united effort to increase the mem bershp of the
Department.. He says: "other States are now
actively at work, and Iowa should not fail to
keep step and march with the column. The

centage by death increases as the years 10 by,
and these losses are beyond recovery but
