knights of the Maccabees of the
World, has just completed a visitation
of the different tents in Southern Cali

all in excellent condition. Mr. Hall

bees since the summer of 1895, at which
time the membership in this state was
fewer than 1000. Under his efficient
management he has seen the member
ship increase until now the association
is one of the leading fraternal associa-
tions in this state. having tents in all
the principal cities and towns. The
supreme tent has honored him upon
two occasions by electing him as one
of its officers, and ever since the great
camp was organized in this state he
has held the position Of great com
mander, having always been unani-
mously elected. He is well liked by
the Sir knights, and 1t is a question
whether there is another person con-
nected with the order in an official
position who has more friends than
he has.
