There are but few persons any OF whom
Is entitled to credit for devotion to the
order OF the Eastern Star and its prin-
ciples in a greater degree than is Mrs.
Maria Akers Pierce, wife Of William
Frank Pierce OF Oakland. a gentleman
who stands very high in the Masonic or
der. Mrs. Pierce, as a plain everyday
member OF Oak Leaf Chapter No. s. was
most earnest worker and TO her infiu-
ence is due much Of the success Of that
chapter. AS an officer, whatever station
she filled. she performed her duties with
a conscientiousness that won for her the
highest admiration OF all. But in her
capacity OF worthy grand matron OF the
State OF California she demonstrated
what devotion TO an order is and what
one woman can do when she takes an
interest in a work which has for its
chief aim the gloriication OF her sex and
the placing OF woman on the highest
plane. 10 say nothing of the maintaining
of fraternal love and of unostentatiously
extending relief to those who are in need,
as does this order. In that capacity she
gave her time. her energy, at no small
sacrifice Of home comforts and personal
is a remarkably intelligent woman, to
the end that the order OF the Eastern
Star, OF which she is a most ardent ad-
vocate. should become the leader of all
organizations in which women are a
component part and which have frater-
nifty for the foundation stone. By voice
and action she did all that any one could
do 10 eXemplify the true meaning OF
fraternity and she did IL in so affable a
manner that wherever she went she won
every one over 10 her way of thinking
During her term she visited seventy
three OF the chapters and established a
large number OF schools OF instruction
FOR the purpose Of having the beautiful
work Of the order performed with uni
formity in every chapter room. She held
twenty-four of these schools during her
term as grand matron and was the in
structor in each. Only those who fully
understand what such instruction means
as TO the time and the watchfulness of the
instructor TO see that every point is faith
fully brought out can appreciate the
amount OF work she did. IL must be a
qualification 10 her TO know that her work
was appreciated and that she is looked
upon everywhere as one of the grandest
and most amiable women who ever devot-
ed herself 10 the advancement of the or
der OF the Eastern Star in California.
