A true fraternal brother will always
be punctual at the opening of his
lodge, and will always act cheerfully
upon all committees upon which he
may be placed. This insures intelli-
gent action and keeps the member
close up with what is being done in
the order. Attend, work. and all will
be we'll with you and the lodge.

While some lodges are dormant, or
losing in membership, others are BOOM
ing right along. The same conditions
exist in one case as in the other. The
difference is this: In the one case the
members are wondering why somebody
don't do something, and spending their
time arguing over the shortcomings OF
others. In the other case the members
are busy doing something, to-wit; get
ting new members; and have no time
to think over the shortcomings of
others. The only way to make things
move is to move them.-A. .. u. w.

The security of fraternal orders
rests in the fact that it is composed of
the best men and women who are alive
to interests of society at home, their
general welfare and bound together
by mutual ties and mutual interests
which gives it strength that no other
organization can have.-Pathtinder.

What engenders more good brother
ly feeling than to have your neighbor-
ing lodge visit you? A simple act,
but one which can easily and should
more often be done. Neigh5 orly
rivalry as to which lodge can do the
best team work and deliver their
charges best is conducive to better
and more thorough understanding of
the work and will result in much good.

Sometimes lodge is started and
then left to take care OF itself. No
society will run itself; in fact, nothing
will run itself. Perpetual motion has
not yet been invented. The small
boy has the secret of it, but he keeps
mum. If you want your lodge to run,
you must run it, and continue to run
it, and keep on continuing to run it.
So says the Fraternal News.

MARTINS FERRY LABOR.

The Aetna-Standard is only partially
on. Most of the old Aetna mill is on,
including two tin mills, two sheet mills
and bar and rod mills, the balance is
is closed down, and like the Laughlin,
no one knows when the notice to go to
work will come. The Beaumont Glass
Company, which is not in the combine,
is working full time and have plenty
of orders. The new line they are just
putting on the market is meeting with
good success. The Spence, Baggs &
Co. stove foundry is away behind with
orders and will not be able to fill the
orders already booked before January
1st. The stove business is having the
largest trade in its history, although
there has been such an advance In
prices. Mann's foundry is working
every day, but is not so rushed as some
months ago. Hipkins' Novelty Mould
Works is working all hands and max
ing full time. The blast furnace is
closed down on account of fuel and will
start up again soon as sufficient sup
ply of coke can be had. The new
structural iron works are pushing their
Improvements on the Spence plant as
rapidly as possible. The industries OF

they have been in the past few months.
The Stanton Heater Company, which
recently built plant here, are doing
well and their new plant seems to be
a good omen for large business, as
one of their travelling men just re-
turned with six good orders. Their
outlook is very fiattering. The new
shovel works which is going to occupy
O part of the Laughlin nail mill, have
their new building we'll under way and
expect to have it finished soon. This
will be one of the best additions to our
many manufacturing concerns. The

but the trust when it will resume. This
