Suicides.

Our attention has been called to
the fact that Assessment No. 2o4 of
the National Union, covering deaths
Nos. 2546 to 25o2, inclusive (SI46,ooo),
contains nine suicides (S32,ooo), or 2I.e
per cent. of the whole. 1t is certain
ly evident from such a record that
the unquestioned payment by fra
ternal societies of suicide claims
virtually puts premium upon self
destruction. 1t must be evident that
such a proportion of suicides would
not occur unless there was a tangible
reason therefor. That reason is to
found when men meet with inistor-
tune, and become disheartened and
Respondent. The thought that their
families will be provided fer in case
of their death goes a long way
towards prompting selt-destruction.
Whereas, on the other hand, if these
same men knew that in case they
took their own lives, their families
"Obi0 SCl iiotiiAiiSt VI JuSl lhS sum
of money they had paid in, there
would be an element of restraint
that would take away from self-de-
struction the factor of financial ben.
eft to the family. We believe that
the fraternal societies are not called
upon to do more in cases of suicide
than to pay the amount to the sui
cide's family which he has paid in,
with interest. The Columbian
League is the first of the Fraternal
Societies to incorporate such a pro-
vision in its laws. 1t forms part of
the application and certificate, and
it does this in order to protect itself
from financial loss, and to restrain
the suicides hand. There is more
true fraternity in such a provision
than there IS in aging suicide claims
in full.-Thc Columbian Herald.

a Contrast.

well known to the writer and gives
his experience with both. The one
who was member of the A. Q. U.
w. was carpenter by trade, jo-
vial fellow, well met, could go out
with the boys and have good time
and keep his end up. He was also
well thought of and had lots of
friends and best of all had a good
wife and three children. He did not
slave himself nor deprive himself of
all the pleasures which there are in
the world because he loved his fami-
ly. He did not try to save all for
them but on the contrary provided
for them well and enjoyed this world
as he went along.
All this time he was member of
the A. Q. U. W., and found time to
attend the Lodge and when the as
sessments came due he always paid
them and found no fault. Death came
to him as it must to us all and he
passed to another world. What a
comfort it must have been to him in
his last hours to know that while
living he had done his duty to his
family and now that in leaving them
he could do so with the assurance
that the a. Q. U. w. would provide
the means with which the mother
could keep the little ones together,
educate them, and bring them up to
become am honor to him and them
selves, which they are today.
The other man was a merchant, a
man who had family, a wife and
two children. He was good fellow,
in fact too good, as he would work
all day, go out in the evening, play
cards with the boys, see that they
were treated and enjoy himself to
his own satisfaction. Many time
have | tried to have him join the
Order and his excuse was that it
cost too much and he could not afford
it. tried to explain to him that if
he would only leave out treating two
men every day and put away ten
cents that it would more than pay
his assessments. But it was of no
use he would not join. He provided
for his family but never thought Of
what would become of his family
after he had passed away. Well the
time came at last but too late. He
died without providing for those
who were near and dear to him.
His neighbors paid for his burial and
his family was left in pitiful state.
What scene that household was,
upon the return from the grave.
The poor wife left with two small
children without means to even buy
them food. The poor woman had to
do something what could she do?
She went to work doing what she
could, but in short time she broke
down and was taken to the hospital,
finally died and was buried by the
city, and the children Were put in
an asylum. deprived OF mothers
care. And why2 Simply because
the father failed to take advantage
OF the very thing within his grasp.

that have come under the observa-
ton of one who has been member

bers who arrive late. If the presid-
ing officer delays opening the Lodge,
so as to wait for them, he not only
encourages them in the bad habit,
but others will say, "there is no need
to go 50 early, because Lodge never
opens until half an hour or an hour
after time" And soon it becomes
impossible to open on time, because
so many of the members are educa-
ted to coming late. But there are
other members who object to staying
late, and they will stay away.
When asked why they have quit

late hours that l can not. l have to
