! will be welcomed by no one more
gratefully than by the Great Hive Of
licers of the ladies of the Modern
Maccabees.
This is because the ordeal. which
this order of women has been passing
through for months, will not be at an
end until the dawn Of the New Year
! draws the curtain over the trials and
| trlhulations of the past. New Years
Day for them will bring truly a new
year of sunshine and happiness.
Since this intelligent organization of
women bravely faced the task last
June of readjusting its rates of in
, surance, the officers have labored day
e and night to make plain to their GS,-
1 600 members i'm Michigan, the self
D evident fact that adequate rates
! should be adopted for the future. They
had to combat the fallacious argu-
ment that "the society had grown big
and paid every dollar of its $4,000,
4 100000 obligation as it came due for
5 the past 25 years and therefore could
5 continue to do so i'm the future" 1t
was difficult to make members un-
derstand that rates of insurance i'm
? tho past were inadequate.
9 How all these conditions were final
n " Strengthened out is a matter OF
= history. The obstacles were overcome
n however. 1t is now known for GER
tainty that the l.. O. T. NJ. NJ. will be-
gin the New Year with a very large
> proportion of its old members on the
membership roll, which will insure the
. permanency of the order; with lot
4 of dead timber" removed and a large
e cash surplus on hand to guarantee the
e payment of ali obligations.
70 When the New Year comes around,
the officers and members of this So
ciety may well congratulate them
q selves on the successful accomplish
4 ment Of a task that would stagger the
S utmost efforts OF even man himself
