The organization of the Supreme
Lodge Modern Samaritans of Ameri-
ca was announced in the Ardmoreite
some time ago Local lodge. No. /,
has been instituted in this city, and the
new order enters the field of fraternal-
ism with flattering prospects of a
grand success. The promoters of the
order have made very little ado, but
they have worked earnestly TO launch
an institution that will PROVE bless
ing TO generations to come. They
have labored with unselfsh zeal, not
to frame plans that would bring for
tunes to their pockets, but to set forth
principles which are plain and practi-
cal so that all persons can see at a
glance the excellencies of the plan.
The supreme lodge is Differed with
leading business and professional men
of this city. Its founder DR.. LeMay,
has devoted several years TO formulat-
ing the plans, and being in sympathy
with unfortunate people, he has COW
cred grounds as Jet unoccupied by
any fraternal soriety. The purpose is
to combine white male and female per
sons of sound bodily health and good
reputation into a fraternal body. to
provide funds so that when a member
is sick or rendered unable to use his
usual avocation by accident, he will
receive $40 per week until he recov-
ers his or her normal health, and in
case OF death a funeral benefit of 500
will be paid. The calculations are
based upon the experience of the most
successful insurance orders of the
age. Their ritual is pronounced as
beautifully impressive. Organizers
will start Immediately to institutlne
local lodges all over the Territory and
states.
The Ardmoreite wishes them much
success.
