WESTERN FRATERNAL
ASSOCIATION

J. I. Mac Laughlin, supreme presi-
dent of the w. r. A., has just returned
from very successful trip in and
about San Francisco. He was gone
two weeks, within which time he sue
ceeded in securing the services of some
excellent organizers and the good work
is going on all along the line.
w. l.. Busk, an old time resident of
San Francisco, who has a great repu-
tation for doing things, was put in
charge of the work in the northern
part OF the state, and is already ac-
lively engaged in putting in two lodges
One of the lodges will be for men and
women Jointly, while the other one will
be a stag lodge. Thursday sixteene
applications were written in San Fran
cisco by Mr.. Buck and his deputies.
Organizers have already bee nsent to
Oakland, Stockton. Sacramento and
San Jose, and there will soon be a
cities. Another man will be sent to
San Diego in the near future.
Mr.. Mclaughlin has a reputation
throughout the state as a hustling or
ganizer in fraternal work, and, as SUI
preme president of the Western Fra
ternal association is living up to- If
not excelling, all previous records. AL
though the order is but two months old
it has 100000 insurance In effect, with
prospects bright of reaching the mil
lion dollar mark by the LIST Of January.
e. S. Perkins and F. c. Friedman,
who are organizing in Oregon, are
meeting with success, having estab-
lished a strong lodge in Salem. They
are now putting in a lodge in Portland,
and will establish lodges in other cities
in Oregon.
Companion Kinds, 225-pounder, who
was raised on pork and beans and
shows symptoms Of his raising, is at
Redondo putting in a lodge which will
soon be going full blast. He sent word
up to the head office that he is meet
ing with success and asked McLaugh-
lin to pray for him; as Macs prayers
are always answered sooner or later,
Kinds will probably be as successful
in putting on new members as the
Lord was feeding the multitude on
bread and fishes. We expect to hear
great things from Redondo in the near
future.
Home lodge No. held its usual meet
ing Friday night of this week A
number of candidate were initiated and
quite a lot of applications read and
balloted on. Last week w. H. Tag
gart resigned as treasurer Of Home
lodge and Miss Bon Durant was elected
