The American Equity.

Just why it is necessary for the
American Equity to be consolidated
with any other insurance order is not
clear to the majority of the mem
bers in this city. It's affairs so far as
any statement made to the member
ship shows are in good shape, Its
death losses have been met prompt
ly and there is in the mortuary FUND
approximately $4,000. Apparently
all that is needed to keep the order
growing is little push on the par'
of the management. Better stop the
talk of consolidation and go to work
to boom the Equity.
