vicinity:
wish to urge the fact that no one
VINO can pass an examination. be-
tween the ages OF Is ami As years Las
a moral right to 20 uninsured 10 this
country, when such chance exists
Ior projection as IS given by the
Modern Woodmen of America, the
largest, strongest and best protection
10 the world. This is the best and
most simple plan to make restitution
Tor the loss OF the bread winner and
protector, that man has ever been
able to devise.
This society Is 20 years old and Ia
S54 months has collected only c86
assessments. which has given the
members the benefit OF the % assess
ments skipped. No other society can
boast OF such a reasonable cost,
As an evidence OF how the AmerI.
can people appreciate this soclety,
need only say we now have nearly
l,250,O0O members, or, In other
words, every 18th n,an IN the United
States. While not hrasting of being
reserve order, YET We l,lxe the third
largest reserve oi m, rraternal order
Ia the world. lsuL, VI a. We do boast
OF Is that we have the gteitest re-.
serve Ia the world, Ia solid patriotism
aud everlasting brotherhood and fra
ternal love, and every member ap.
preciates the fact ur success aud
economical management IN the past.
and that we have paid in fun, In 20
years, $4,000 death claims and an
amount the largest ever paid In the
same number OF years by any society:
500, 100000 or thes. events aud
deeds done, we feel proud. Our
jurisdiction all the United States aud
Canada; our aims. peace, love aud
brotherhood.
AS a potent factor fr good, no
agency on earth surpas,es the fra
ternal influence Of the Modern Wood
men OF America. or over 10000
who belong to 200 fra'crnal orders In
America, we, the Nj. w. uf A., have
over oDe-elghth We have sanI-
torium at Colorado Springs, which Is
such success that several other
orders are beginning 10 consider
starting similar ones. The NJ. w. Of
A. was the first To make IL practical
and pay, both from u Humanitarian
and financial standpoint: the first for
saving the members and restoring
them to home aud families and saw
Ing the order the pay for loss IS that
could be deferred for years. This
Sauitorlum is free to all members Of
the society, who are Ia the grasp of
the white plague. which destroys such
a large percentage OF mankind. Sure
" this is worth much to the members.
And up to date we are the arst ard
only institution that has ever gone SO
far Ia doing good for lis members.
Others may now follow, but we lead.
Perhaps l may say that no society
can boast Of greater deeds of aid to
It's members when stricken with I'D l.
versity and trials. The nation,
has witnessed our assis-
tance given. not charity but aid
which Is innate In the philosophy Of
our society. We teach sobriety, In
1ustry and brotherhood as a maxim
Of truth and Fundamental principle.
In this age OF such graspinE greed,
and cold commercialisnI,
we'll 1t Is that a society Of over OLe
million sturdy men are teaching the
world a lesson Df peace, not war;
and love versus conflict of
arms.
Our society can boast that last yea,
n 1870, it took in 1863, 900 new nIem-
)ers, average age only ~ years. This
Vas more members than any one ~
700 orders Ia the United States has
secured in all Of It's time. except nve.
W ny should not eveNy lnsuI fDle lnau

n the reach Of all. This Is the
,riginal Woodman. aud IL stands to-
lay the marvel and wonder of the
world, the Giant of Fiatcrnals: rates
