 To Meet Next In Memphis. In the name of Memphis Lodge No. 35 Rabbi Samfield extended a cordial invi- tation to the grand lodge to hold its next annual session in Memphis. Dr. Samfield used a beautiful metaphor in leading up to the invitation. He said that thirty-three years ago, a young baby was born in Memphis. There it was rocked in its cradle and matured until it had grown strong. And now. after thirty-three years. it would be no more than fitting that the baby. grown to maturity, should go back 70 the scenes of it's babyhood. He invited this child of Memphis. the Grand Lodge of B'Nai B'Rith, to the great city on the Mississippi. Deafening applause fol- lowed.
 On motion of Rabbi Rosenthal. Mem phis was unanimously accepted as the meeting point for next year. The committee to which was referred the report on the Jewish Widows and Orphans Home at New Orleans. then submitted it's report through Captain Philip H. Stern. In part, the report was as follows:
 We most heartily congratulate the district and the officers of the institution that at amost trying period and under most untaNOTdDl6 COHulttViS tiiC cial affairs have been so ably arranged and that no deficit appears In order that a similar condition of doubt and unrest be impossible in the future we most heartily recommend that the del- egates assembled make special ef- fort in their respective communities to arouse them to the needs of this grand work. A heart to heart talk with the members of this order would hr{, attan nf fllllv ble of meeting the current expenses and thus relieving the directors from anxiety and fear.
 "We most heartily congratulate the officers of the Home for the excellent report on the health of the children. While sickness waged all around. our children remained strong and healthy. Surely this Is grand tribute to the care and devotion bestowed upon them and for the exceptional precautions that only loving and self-sacrifcing foster parents could provide.
 "In order to free the institution from the possibility of receiving children afflicted with disease from without, we recommend that the questions put to physicians in the application blanks be more direct and explicit and that the directors require the corGect an- swering of these questions. A report filled out incorrectly should temporari- ly debar the applicant from admission to the Home. This fact should be sta ted to all applicants"
 It was recommended in the report that the Grand Lodge ratify the amendment to article eight of the by laws, the composition of the fund known as "The Isidore Newman Man ual Training School Trust Fund"
 "In conclusion." said the last para graph of the report i've congratulate this district on the efficient manage ment of those to whom has been en- who have made the institution world tanned" -.
 The report was adopted by unani- nous vote of the convention.

 The most touching part of the re- mort was when resolutions were read commenting and thanking Grand Sec retarv Nat Strauss for his untirng work, great tribute was paid this veteran member. sixteen years grand secretary, and it was hoped that he would be spared for many years to come. Tears fell upon the cheeks of MT. Strauss as he heard this part Of the rrnort Other tributes had been paid him during the session. but none ap- nealed to him as this did. for the con- ventIon was nearing its close and Mir. Strauss was deeply moved by the oe- casion-
