GREAT DANISH BROTHERHOOD
Omaha-BOrn Society that Has Grown
in Numbers and strength
Through the Country.


military secret society, the Danish Vet.
Grams, was founded by Colonel Mark Han
sen OF this city June II, 1881, with lodges in
Omaha, Neenah, Wis. Davenport, Ia; RIA.
cine, Wis., and Moline, Ill. The first ma
tional convention of the order was held the
following year in Omaha. 1t was then
resolved to change the name OF the society
to that of the Danish Brotherhood, and
make the membership open to all healthy
and reputable Danish men in this country,
Since then the little benevolent society
of few lodges has grown to be mighty
national Danish fraternity. with nearly S0
lodges in all the different states OF the
union and with a membership OF over
10000 Many millions of dollars have been
paid in sick benefits and life insurance to
its members and their widows; the needy
have been helped, the sick comforted, and
wherever this society has lodge its re-
filming and beneficial influence has always
been felt and appreciated by the local
Danish colony, and the Danes all over the
country are justly proud of the Danish
Brotherhood that has done so much 20
elevate the Danes In this country, to
cherish their memories from the fatherland,
TO teach them to appreciate the freedom
and liberty to be found in this new land
citizens.
The supreme secretary Of the Danish
brotherhood, ]. Michaelsen, resides In this
city, where the order has executive ofhces
In the Range building. The other MEM
bers of the supreme lodge are living in
other cities, the treasurer's ONCE being In
Chicago.
The Danish Brotherhood will hold its
twenty-fourth national convention in coun-
ell Bluffs, Ia in October. this year, and
nearly 800 delegates win flock 70 that city
from every state in the union
The order has five lodges in omaha-No.
(the original and Oldest in the whole
brotherhood). Nos. 10, "a (south omaha)'
1876 and 800. There are more than 600 able
bodied descendants Of the old Vikings In
the local lodges i'm Omaha and whenever
they are called upon to do their duty as
citizens or brothers they respond TO man,
and no one is more respected In the Danish
colony in this city than the members OF the
brotherhood.
With the present rapid increase Of mefn-
bership the Danish Brotherhood will before
many years be one OF the largest ffaternal
orders IN this country, and, as It has
large sinking fund already, also one OF the
strongest and most reliable.
The society has a women's auxiliary In
the Danish slsterhood that has a very
large membership and works in harmony
with the brotherhood. to which It holds
about the same position as the Eastern
star does TO Masonry.
At the Ak-sar-Ben festival last year the
Danish Brotherhood had one OF the finest
floats ia the electrical parade aud wherever
Il went it's herculean Vikings and symbolic
emblems were greeted with cheers and
hand elapping by the assembled crowds.
showing the great popularity and respect
In which the Danish Brotherhood always
has been held by the citizens Of Omaha.
