Does your Lodge live or exist?
Do not cease working; make
your Lodge have continual boom.
In seeking new members always
look to quality instead of quantity.
The Royal Templars of Temper
ance have adopted natural pre-
MUM plan.
The next session of the National
Fraternal Congress will be held at
Baltimore, November 18th.
The advanced position taken by
the Orders has taken the wind out
of their adversarie's arguments.
Is your face familiar to the active
members of your Lodge, so in case
of accident YOU could he identified
by them?
Beware of the buzz-saw of criti-
cism when you are talking, as il
may touch you if you are not al
ways on your guard.
Some people have difficulty in
saying just what they mean. but
others find it almost impossible to
mean just what they say.
Are you aware that, while you
are criticising and holding back in
the harness, some one else is hust-
ling and taking the milk as well as
the cream?
Many Lodges trast their Offices
in the hands of those to whom the
neighborhood grocer would not give
a loaf OF bread upon credit Are
you acting wisely?
What unspeakable joy thrills the
soul when one arrives just i'll time
to see the train leavel And how
happy one viii he when he realizes
that he has been just little late in
procuring protection for his loved
ones! Remember that procrastina
ton is the thief of the time
Among the thirty five thousand
soldiers in camp at Chickamauga
Park are about five thousand be-
longing to the Knights OF Pythias.
Some of these members being sick
the local Lodges of that Order in
Chattanooga, Tenn, assisted by the
Order at large, have equipped Il
hospital, in which their members
will he well nursed.
Communities are kept alive by
births which generally more than
offset in number of deaths If this
were not the case such communities
in few years would become de-
serted and things of the past Or
ders are like these communities /;
new limitations must more than off
set the deaths and members who
have been dropped for different rea-
sons. The change should always
be on the side of increase.
Prompt action is followed by sue
cess, as was proven by the stars and
stripes when Cervera struck for
freedom from the harbor of Santi-
ago. A moments delay, the slight
est lack of discipline of watchful-
ness would have permitted at least
one of the Spanish ships to have re-
gained liberty. Such lessons should
be learned by all. Never relax in
the direct course of duty; and re-
member that one can act in the
present only.

Invasion OF Cuba Postponed.

WASHINGTON. May 21.-The project
for occupying the island OF Cuba with
large military force is still a matter OF
much uncertainty. The influences for ana
against the immediate carrying out Of the
