ORDER OF PROTECTION.

Members of the lodges of the New
England Order of Protection in the
eastern part of the state are expected
to be vending their ways towards the
Golden Spur on the East Lyme trolley
road this Saturday for the picnic to
be given under the direction of the
grand lodge. Last Saturday the West
ern Connecticut lodges had their pic
mic, but it is the fasteners turn to-
day ard it is believed that there will
be a large attendance.
The general programme for the day
is for a picnic on the basket lunch
plan, to be followed by programme
of sports in the afternoon, and a gen
eral participation in the entertainment
which the Golden Spur affords, includ-
ing dancing.
Grand Secretary Jeremiah Wall was
here from New Haven on Tuesday
evening to attend meeting of Thames
lodge. No. 1885, in Foresters hau, where
he spoke encouragingly of the pros
poets for the n. E. o. p
+ In the current issue of the n. E. Q. P.
paper, Past Supreme Warden F. T.
Peabody takes up the consideration of
the conditions which led the supreme
lodge to institute extra assessment
plan, and summarizes the matter, stat
ing first the three general provisions of
the new Massachusetts law, as fol-
lows:
s 1. Not later than April 80, 1913,
valuation of our society shall be fur
nished to the Insurance Commissioner
of Massachusetts. The standard of
valuation shall be the National F'rater-
nal Congress table of mortality, or any
higher table. or upon our own expert
ence of over twenty years, covering one
hundred thousand ives, and we can
qualify under the last clause.
2. 1t is further provided that such
report Oh valuation shall not be re-
garded as test of the financial solv-
ency of any society, but society shall
she held to be legally solvent SO long as
the funds in its possession are equal
to Or in excess of it's matured 1iabili-
ties.
8. Beginning with the year 1914,
report of such valuation and an ex-
PLANTATION of the facts concerning the
condition of the society thereby dis
CLOSED shall be sent to each member of
the governing body of the society not
later than June of each year; or pub
lished in the official paper and mailed
to each benefit member of the society.
Z II the first report submitted to the
state Insurance department at the close
of 1917 discloses an actuarial deficiency
tending to prove that the future in
come of the society from present mem
bers. plus any present accumulated
funds improved at interest will not
meet the future insurance losses, occa-
seemed by deaths in the future of pres
ent members, then the society is re-
quired to show betterment in it's act
uarial condition of five per cent every
three years. This provision of the bill
gives us a full sixty years to correct
any deficiency.
If there is a defect in our Orders in
come provision, full sixty years is
given US to correct such defect, the
memh ers in the meantime being adj
.vised each year as to the Orders exact
condition. What more can be desired
in the way of reasonable and fair leg
islation?
, In view of the above it would seem
to me that the Supreme Lodge in an
.nual session showed wisdom in taking
the advanced step that it did, and that
