past few years and will do even better in
tine future than he has done in the past,
for he is now where he can do the most
good. He served during the present year
as advisor and made good officer in that
capacity He has had aspiration to go up
TO the chair of consul and the boys
thought they would reward him for
honesty and give him a show.
DR. C. W. Allen, who retires the first of
the year as consul, taking his seat as the
honorable past consul, has made most
excellent officer and leaves the chair with
the good VIII of the members. He has
been a regular attendant at all meetings
and has given the camp the best he had
in him. He has acted toward all the
members in impartial manner, and
his rulings have been found to be about
right in most instances.
J. /. Taylor, who was elected to succeed
himself. has made a most excellent officer
a man in the future. There is not more
worthy man in the ranks of the Modern
Woodmen than Mr. Taylor. He is always
ready to do the very best that he can for
the camp and has the good will of the
entire membership of the camp. He would
go down into his own pocket at any time
to help neighbor in distress Such men
are always needed in any secret order
John Myers, who was elected as ad
visor, has been a faitfu man in the camp
for years He has brought in many good
members and is always ready to write up
a candidate wherever he meets good tim
Der upon which to work. If John is not
a good Woodman there are no good ones
in the world. He will make good officer
in the future as he has in the past Hur-
1ah for Myers!
Ray Carrothers, the six-foot-four escort,
will still be at the head of the procession
each week when the candidates go through
the secret work. Ray has been escort for
year and has been good one He has
never missed meeting, except ON prize
