them until IA years old

AN orphans home would be establish
ed, and plans also for the building of
a free tuberculosis hospital for the
treatment of members suffering from

So unostentatious have been the
preparations for the establishment of

the executive committee and the Off
GERS, directly engaged i'm the every
day business of the order have the
slightest conception of the movement.
