A rather unusual decision was
recently handed down at Youngs-
town, Ohio, in wlrich tiIe Brother.
hood Of Locomotive Engineers was
interested. A member had taken n
certificate for 1850, payable to
his father. He died and claim
was put in by his widow. The court
decided in her favor, saying the
case involved some very nice legal
questions. The court said that il
was a new question to him and had
he given an off-hand opinion be-
fore he looked into it he would have
said the money ought to be paid to
the fnther of the deceased, as he
had been named hv his dead son as
his beneficiary, but after hearing
the case and going into it thorough
ly he found that the intent and
purpose of the Brotherhood Of Lo-
comotive Engineers was to provide
protection to the immediate family,
or those directly dependent on its
members for support. When the
deceased became insured and made
his father his beneficiary he was
then living in his fathers home
and nobody was dependent on him
But when he married the conditions
were changed and under the laws
of the Brotherhood his wife became
his heneticiary, and the court cited
Supreme Court decisions which up
held that view OF the case.

Membe are reminded that no
system endures unless maintained
by active work. If the citizens in
this country refused to participate
in it's politics, the Government itself
would fail When the members of
the church cease to do church work
the church comes to an end. When
the members of any society or club
discontinue their efforts to maintain
it, however worthy may be its OBJ
iects or valuable its work, it ceases
to exist. How then can they ex-
pect fraternal beneficial society,
which is maintained only by the
work of the members to continue
it's existence unless they do their
share to maintain it. Those who
are putting forth no effort in that
direction should at once reform
their practices. Remember the old
command, ''If there be one among
you who will not work, let him not
eat"

following. 1t will bear reading and
thoughtful consideration by every
member of the Order: "My Brother
you are not in this Order to get
$4,000 out of it for just as little as
you can put in. Surely you have
some higher motive than insurance.
You believe that this Order is a
blessing to your city and State, and
the United States, and blessing to
mankind in general. If you do,
then give it just a little of your
time, just little more attention, do
it for your own sake; do 1t for the

do it for the bettering Of human
