with distinguished ability and marked
Detriotism and disinterestedness.
Mr.. Chas. /. Saunders of Jackson,
who has occupied the distinguished
post OF president of this great body
OF men during the past twelve months,
has made a splendid official, and has
made a record for efficiency and I'M
selfish devotion to duty which has
given great pleasure to his host of
friends. He has done much to
strengthen and cement the working

and there is not man within its
ranks who does not thoroughly esteem

qualities of head and heart.
He has been ably assisted by his
genial and talented Secretary, Mr..
