Annual Session of State Grange.

The session of the Maine State
Grange, which closed at Lewiston on
Thursday of last week, was the most
notable point of delegates in attend
ance and the interest manifested OF
any gathering ever held by that Or
der. There had been the keenest
kind of competition between the
cities of the state for the privilege of
entertaining the order at its annual
meeting. and Lewiston evidently felt
she should show her appreciation of
being honored in the final choice by
every courtesy that she could offer.
The streets were deliberately decorat-
ed and everything was done that
would tend to make the visiting dele
gates and other members feel that
they were indeed the city's honored
guests. We give below some of the
most important reports made at the
session and publish elsewhere a por-
ton of the State Masters address,
under the heading, 1.-THE Grange and
Parcel Post"
III his annual report Chairman K. d.
Leavitt of Auburn, for the Executive
Committee said:
The growth of the order in our State
for the past year has not been as
large as In the past few years, but II
has been steady and substantial.
Maine easily holds its position OF hav-
ing the largest per cent. OF grange
bers of any state, and second
only in numbers to the great Empire
state. The future Of the order Is In
your hands. We have passed the
period of danger from outside. Our
future prosperity will depend upon
the wisdom, sagacity and cohesion OF
the members.
The resources of the Maine State
Grange on Sept. 80. 1907, were as fol-
lows:-
Balance In treasury So,oZo'zZ
Stock in cooperative Store,
Portland 5,940.00
Supplies in secretary's office 445. 80
RilIs receivable 62.38
$11,97e 20
The question is frequently asked,
what are the sources of revenue for
the State Grange treasury. Tney
are as follows:
Yearly dues from subordinate
grange members, sixteen cents, hve
cents of which goes to the National
Grange Fees from subordinate ini-
tiates, % cents for women and 30
cents for men. From sixth degree
initiates, 81, so cents of which goes to
the National Grange. Profit on sale
Of grange supplies, interest on de-
posts and interest on stock invested

 What if we had a grand stock of suits and coats and every garment of outer wear for women except separate skirts?
 The store would fall fatally short of completeness. Wouldn't it? Or what if we had complete stock of all wool en dress goods, except broadcloths? The stock would be imperfect. So if we prepared ever so lavishly for wom- en and forgot the tots and misses we would be considerably under perfec- tion.
 But we try to cover completeness in every line attempted
