cause with her patriotism. set her to
tho task of this magnificent philan-

leave others to do tho work; she
planned aud led in the execution. The
whole of that brave and loyal army

seemed eXpcdicnt to place all hospitals

A letter from the Los Angeles
Nest of Owls No. 1886 was re-
ceived by ] S Dye, financial sec
retary Of the Navajo Nest inform
ing him that one of their men,
bers, w. T Palmer, was IN the
Santa Fe hospital at that place
in a critical condition and that
little or no hope of his recovery
remained, and asking what the
Navajo Nest wished to do re-
garding the sick benefit which is
$40 per week. Mr. Dye immedl
ately telegraphed them to render
every possible assistance to the
sick brother and to the family,
and send the bill to this Nest.
An owl as rule is not looked
upon as much good to the coun-
try but when it comes to the Or
der of Owls they are always on
the lob and in cases of this kind
are ever alert to any assistance
that they can render to an attilct-
ed brother.
