mo a Charter Camp Of this Order,
and is meeting with splendid sue

The Modern Woodmen is the

the World, Knights of Pythias,
Maccabees, and other Fraternal
Societies.
The United States Army and
the Department of Commerce and
Labor have adopted the mortali-
" statistics of this Order, and it
has recognized them in many
ways, principally in donating SIX
HUNDRED acres of land to the
Sanatorium, for the treatment Of
TUBERCULOSIS, which is owned
and operated by the Modern
Woodmen, near Colorado Springs,
and at the foot of Pike Peak.
Members of the Order, who de-
velop tuberculosis, are taken care
Of by them and sent to the Sana-
torium for free treatment. The
Sanatorium embraces 1888 acres
of land, and they own and oper-
ate their dairy and farm, and ALL
of the cows are tested for tuber-
culosiS before being used. The
water supply is secured from
among the mountains, and every
