MODERN WOODMEN OF
AMERICA
S> The Modern Woodmen OF
| HS3 Ss IN America of San Bernardino
Al I1and Riverside counties will
kW\/ANhold their eighth annual
| WH<I\AV picnic at Urbita Springs,
! ~ south of San Bernardino,
June 1S Everybody is invited, espe-
cially mem bers of the order. The com
mittee in charge of this arrangement
is equal to the occasion, and from the
eatable standpoint there Will be no
cause for alarm, as they have always
on former occasions been able to meet
the emergency. There will be large
representation from all of the camps
present, and there is no reason why
this affair will not be the most sue
cessful of all the picnics that have
been held in Southern California.
The program for the open meeting or
Golden State camp is in the hands OF
A. B. Copper, which is sufficient to
insure a good entertainment and a
good time for all who will be fortunate
enough to attend. These entertain
ments are growing more popular all
the time, and that they are of great
neneit TO the camp is evident to all.
Our next open meeting will be heid
Wednesday evening. May 6. Everybody
q
assured
Neighbor ]. A. Herbelin is getting on
exceedingly we'll as deputy for the
camp and is doing the duties of his Of
fee like veteran. Twenty-elght ap-
piications in twenty-eight days would
be going some" even for an expert
enced deputy, but this is the record ne
made the first four weeks in his OF
flee.
II would seem that the little para
granh referring to the need of good
hall by the Woodmen which appeared
in these columns a couple of weeks
since is destined to bear good fruit, so
far as Golden State camp is con-
cerned at least. 1t is practically SET
tied that we will occupy the man hali
in the new fraternity building now IN
course of construction on Grand ave-
nue. between Seventh and Eighth
streets.
The sick department of Golden State
camp held its regular meeting Tues
day and transacted a great deal or nm
portant business that had accumulat-
ed since the last quarterly meeting OF
the department The department is In
a thriving condition, and affords the
very best protection in case of sick
ness and accident at very reasonable
rate.
The labor bureau of the camp con-
Quoted in connection with the clerk
office is succeeding in finding situations
for a number of the members out OF
employment, but in order to be or the
hest service to the camp should have
the active sco-operation of every MEM
ber.
Neighbor Duzenberry of Vernon
Camp visited with us last Wednesday
evening. He is a thorough parliamen-
tartan and enjoys seeing things IN the
lodge room done right. That is proba-
bly, the reason he is so often present
at our meetings
The Dromotion of Captain G. E.
Schroer to the rank of lieutenant colo
mel on the staff of General Mitchell
made his resignation as captain of the
forester team necessary, and Wednes-
day evening he placed his resignation
in the hands of the consul. In accept
ing the resignation the consul ex-
pressed regret that the camp was to
lose so efficient an officer, but said
that its compensation would be that
our past chief forester is now Lieu
tenant Colonel c. E. Schroer instead
of Captain" C. E. Schroer.
The consul appointed G. L. Gregory

Gated by Colonel Schroer Neighbor

perience as drill master and is
thoroughly qualified to take up the
work.
