will do the same thing with the
societies to which we now refer, and
it can be but a short time until
those now most successful will feel
the pressure of the same circum-
stances that have effected their pre-
decessors. They may change, it is
true, but what that change may be
is very uncertain. But few of the
societies which have made changes
have made snch as placed them on
substantial foundation, and the
changes which these societies may
make are very liable to land them
in the meshes of confusion and un-
certainty, which will cost them the
loss of the most desirable class of
members If they do not change
to some safer and better method
than those employed the middle
aged men OF to-day, who are find

1t is time the National Fraternal
Congress took some action to bring
about requisite reforms in these

within the bodies of the fraternities
themselves, it is very plain that a
few years will see such action taken
by the legislatures and the courts
which subjects all fraternities to
the hazard arising from the lack Of
discrimination on the part OF these
functionaries.

of Missouri, applies equally well to
other Jurisdictions wherein cheap
Orders are doing business:
There are operating in Missouri
number of fraternal societies
which seem to be making very good
progress, whose methods are not
calculated in the end to benefit
themselves, their members or the
public. They make their assess
ment rates according to some table
OF mortality, and proportion the
amount according to the age, as
the table indicates. The assess
ment rates thus made are not in
creased as the mem bers grow older,
but remain the same through life.
If the cost of mortality at all ages
was uniform, like the cost of fire
or accident insurance, this would
be the proper method, but such is
not the case. Every year the cost
of risks increase. If, therefor, the
rate is not increased and the assess
ments are Il fixed number, such
that the payment in the course of a
year will equal the mortality
liability during the year OF admis-
sion, the payment is insufficient
every year thereafter, and the
difference between the payment
made and the cost of the risk grows
greater and greater, as it advances.
1t is perfectly plain that an instl-
tuition doing business on this basis
would run a rapid course to bank
ruptcy.
The institutions referred to, how
ever, do not fix the number of as
sessments, and in that case the
mum Der increases to all alike, ac-
cording as the aggregate mortality
of the institution increases, This
they assume to be a safe method,
| inasmuch as the increase of mortal
ity can be covered by increasing
the number of assessments. One
of the first effects of this method is
to load the mortality of the earlier
members on to the later, by increas-
ing the number of assessments, as
the earlier members pay just enough
to meet their mortality the first
year. A little later on the increas-
ing mortality among them will re-
quire more, and the members then
coming in must share that increase
with them, which burdens such
new members with a portion of the
mortality of the older ones in addi-
ton to their own. A further effect,
however, is that it soon reaches a
situation in which young men, are
paying absolutely more than the
old men, Notwithstanding the much
greater cost of the older men.
Those who enter at the earlier ages,
after adding ten or fifteen years Of
life, are still paying the rate of the
earlier ages. All members then
coming in at ages between those at
which they entered and those which
they have attained pay higher
rate of assessment, and pay the
same number, hence pay a larger
amount of money for the same
thing. That such system can en-
dure for any length of time is not
to be expected. The older societies
have already demonstrated in their
experience that whenever the rate
becomes inequitable to the young
man thay leave the society. Thew
