With the June assessment, a "double
header" like the assessments for the
three months preceding, the A. o. u.
W. leaves the old original level rate
plan, and begins July under what is
known as the classified plan. The
lowest rate per $1,000 is 90 cents and
the highest $3.50 and the brethren
age. This is based upon good bust
ness principles and will insure the
permanence and the popularity of the
order. With the inauguration of the
new system, all members must in flu
ture pay their assessments promptly
at the proper time, or their names will
be turned in as suspended. 1t is as
easy to attend to keeping up the assess
ments promptly as to be di1atory and
impose increased burdens on the fnan-
cier.
