70 GRANGE THE RATES
Woodmen OF America Confronted
With Problem All Insurance
Societies Meet.
Plans Being Made for an In
crease in the Assessments
Of the Many Members.
Graduated Age Scale to Be
Recommended..Of Interest
to Secret Societies.

The Modern Woodmen of America Is
one Of the largest fraternal organlza-
tons in Marshalltown and Marshall
county, numbering in the neighborhood
of 700 members in this city alone. 1t
also has a large membership thruout
the state. The order has reached that
age and condition where its leading
members recognize that change must
be made in its system of assessment
and that its rates for insurance must
be increased to afford adequate protec-
ton. All the great fraternal insurance
orders have learned or are learning in
the school of experience that the orig
inal plan upon which their insurance
textures are founded will not work out.
It has been found necessary to base the
payments not upon the age of the mem
Der when admitted but upon his age
when payment is made.
A committee from the head camp of
the Modern Woodmen. composed of
George w. Clark. OF Topeka, Kas.; w.
III. Thompson, of Grand Island, Neb.:
ii. S. Oliver, of Lisbon, N. D.; j. j..
Thompson. of Bloomington, H.; F. H.
Cunningham, of Grand Rapids, Mich,
has recently reported TO the head camp
q plan for the REIMBURSEMENT of the as
sessment method of the Modern Wood
men order and the perpetuity of the
same. The plan of the committee, which
will be of interest not only to the
Woodmen, but to all members of fra
ternal insurance orders and will find
opposition among the order affected, is
rs follows:
"Basing our rates upon the natural
premium plan. we have found the fol-
lowing notifications desirable:
"First--A reserve accumulation to
provide for the level rate after 20 years
of age at sS.75 each assessment per
$1,000 of insurance.
Second A Encouragement of the nat
ura, rates between the ages OF 60 and
40.
"Third-An equal levy upon the en-
tire memberships so that the monthly
contributions to the reserve fund will
be the same for all ages from As to 20.

To learn as many OF the fashionable

to be the ambition Of the girl Of the

the case that considerations Of physi-
cal health are entirely overlooked and
that the fashionable girl finds herself
worn out and old in appearance and
disposition before she has reached the
age Of %. The Ladies Home Journal
~characterizes this folly properly when
it says: There are parents who. not
content with the studies which their
daughters have TO grapple with at
school, load them down with a few
special studies in the finer arts. I
have in mind now several young girls
between the precariOus ages of II and
Il, who, after they return from school,
have an extra dose of painting. music
or languages. But my daughter must
know something Of these things is the
protest Of the fond mother. She must
be able to hold her own with other
girls of her set. OF course, the girl at
this tender age, wkh such a mental
load, soon goes to pieces. She be-
comes anaemic. listless and nervous,

this custom which seems likely and
