faithful. and this Amen pronounced be-

THE B'NAI BIRTH BUILDING.

The building committee of Denver Lodge
No. III, l. O. B. B., informs us that the pro-
iect to erect a B'nai Birth building in this
city is being very favorably received by the
members of the lodge. Subscriptions to the
fund are now rapidly coming in and the
committee feels very much encouraged and
believes that the plan adopted will prove
successful and that the object of having a
B'nai Birth home in this city within the
time proposed will certainly be attained.
The undertaking is one which the Out
look believes is entitled to success and
which has our hearty support. This building
will become a center of Jewish activities
place where the philanthropic work of the
lodge will be more effectively conducted; the
fraternal ties strengthened; the intellectual
faculties developed. 1t is also proposed to
look after the physical development of the
Jewish youth by well equipped gymnasium,
swimming pool, ETC.
We learn that the Denver plan was
heartily endorsed by the last District Grand
Lodge convention at Cincinnati and the pres
ident in his message referred to it in the
following complimentary way:
Denver lodge which seemingly is always
a little in advance of her sister lodges, has
taken practical steps looking towards the
erection of a B'nai Birth building in that
beautiful city. Knowing the energy and en-
thusiasm of our Denver brethren, have no
doubt of the success of the enterprise, and
near future of an edifce that will be credit
to the city, the lodge and it's members.
Success to you, brethren of Denver!
81 have been favored by one of our Den
yer brethren with brief outline of the plan
adopted by Denver lodge for the purpose of
raising fund for it's building, and this
places but slight burdens upon the members
individually, l present it to you so that
other cities in the district may be thereby
encouraged to follow Denver's example"
