ORDER OF PROTECTION.

Slater lodge, No. 509, meeting in Pythian hall on Wednesday evening, Warden Gertrude V. Shepherd presid- ed, had as a feature the finish of a contest between two teams tfter new members. Nine candidates were on hand for initiation and were led into the order, seven of them standing credited to George A. Towards team of ten and two to Mrs F. c. Lewis team of ten. According to the teams of the contest, which had been running d month, Mrs. Lewis and her team as the defeated side had to furnish a sup per, which was the concluding feature of the evening.
 Two visiting Neopians were present Junior Past Warden c. E. Cole and Treasurer Joseph Chapman of Hugue- not lodge, New London, as well as Deputy Adella B. Walden of New Lon- don, who was making her first official visit since her appointment. She was heard in some interesting remarks and the two brothers spoke in the interests of a new magazine they are to publish, the N E. o. P. It will be published in New London and will be issued monthly.
 The Slater lodge members were re- minded of the invitation from Hugue- not lodge to attend their class initia- ton on the 2Sth of March. About twenty of Slater lodge indicated their purpose to go.
  Order of Protection, organized April 22, 1S89 will hold it's session in Bridgeport on April 13, at which time there will be about 300 delegates present represent ing the 91 lodges in this state. Ida lodge of Bridgeport, organized on Dec. 13, 1887, is the oldest lodge in the state, while Edgewood lodge of New Haven, instituted on Feb. B 1910, is the young est. The combined membership of all the lodges in this state was 15,200 on Feb. 2S, but as all are working hard to increase it the grand lodge hopes to be able to report 1900 on April l, when the grand lodge year closes.
 These lodges have in their general fund an aggregate of $35,OOO, some having as high as $2,S0O. The general fund of the grand lodge amounts to $S,000.
 The grand lodge Of Connecticut was iustituted on April 22, 1889, and has had but eight grand wardens, two grand secretaries and two grand treas urers.
 ID. Grinnell of New Haven was the his death on Aug. f. 1905, when Jere- miah Wall was appointed to fill the vacancy and was elected the follow ing year, serving up to the present time.
 Like the first grand secretary. the first grand treasurer, s. A. Granger, of Winsted, died in office, his death oc- curing on Feb. 25, 1897, when F. M. bank, was appointed to fill the vacancy. At the next meeting of the grand lodge he was chosen grand treasurer and has been reelected at every session since then. There is but little doubt but that both MT. Wall and Mir. Drew will hold their respective positions as long as they want to.
 While it is not expected that much of anything except routine business will come before the grand lodge, the Bridgeport lodges are making prepara- tions to show the grand lodge that no mistake was made at the last session providing for every third session to be held in that city, this change being brought about only after hard fight at the last grand lodge session held at New Haven.
