Triple Link Notes.
The California Odd Fellow. in speaking
of the work of the trustees for the Or
phans' home, pay the following compll-
ment to the sisters who constitute the
board: "These sisters are watching over
that noble institution and its little
charges with the care and solicitude of u
Christian mother over her children. One
by one they have brushed aside or over
come the difficulties that seemed almost
to bar further progress until success has
crowned their efforts and the Orphans
home is recognized as one of the perma-
nent and growing beneficent institutions
of our order, whose inmates, sheltered in
their tender years from the buiAating
blasts of adverse fortune, will in due time
go out into the world properly trained
and equipped to meet the struggles which
are inseparable from human life."
The subordinate lodge is what we make
1t. 1t must be fraternnl and social. There
are sick to be cared for, distresses to be
relieved, the dead to be given fraternal
burial.

ance. 1t is that the male members Of the
lodge do not attend its meetings.
The four commands Of the order have
been fully made known to every Odd
Fellow. They are to visit the sick, to re-
lieve the distressed, to bury the dead and
to educate the orphan.
The rejection of an application for
membership based upon the deposit of a
visiting card subjects such applicant to
the provisions OF law that forbid appli-
cants rejected to apply to any lodge for
admission within six months after such
rejection.
Not less than FIVE members entitled to
vote, one Of whom must be qualified to
preside, shall constitute quorum, but
with that number only present no appro-

by a unanimous vote.

and has attained the third degree and is
clear on the books shall have a right to
vote on any question In which he has no
