Matters.
The meeting OF the State directors OF
the Texas division held on the Dist at
Waco was one Of the best in the history
of the association. The interest eyinced
in association affairs was shown by the
large attendance ana also by the fact that
almost every officer not present sent his
reasons for being unable 10 attend and
provided proxy so that mis- local post
might be represented.
When one considers the time and eX-
pense that I. =. A. officers donate to
these meetings, by going TO them from
diaerent sections for no other compensa-
tion than their consideration for the good
OF the order, too much can not be said
by the balance of the members TO show
their appreciation for such sacrifice.
The following telegram from San Antonio
council, L. C. t. shows a cordially be-
tween that organization and the T. p AS.
worthy OF consideration by every local
council and post in America, It reads
