REPORT OF ovERsEER.

Worthy Master. Sisters and Brothers..
As we look back over the year, we
see many things that give US pleasure.
We have received new members and
show decided gain in grange senti-
ment and interest in the community.
We have not attended meetings as
regularly as we ought, but have nc
dissensions or factions in our order.
Many of our members are unable to be
at the meetings, for their work in the
interests of their family has demanded
their entire time, and they cannot dc
as they would like. Others again,
through indifference, have failed to at
tend the meetings. They have not
been with us long enough to really
know what the grange stands for.
There are those among US who can t
see what good the grange can. do for
them or anyone else. Who, because
in the short time we have been organ
lied, we have not done great things,
righted every wrong, and been success
full in putting dollars in the grangers'
pockets, believe we have done nothing.
Our order is what we make it, We
must not expect to receive something
for nothing, and if we are not willing
to give, we Should not expect to re-
ceive. We must not expect it to grow
and do great things if we do not give
freely of our time, influence and sup
port. A dozen faithful ones can not
do the work of over eighty.
five expect our grange to grow we
must make united effort with COM
mon aim. Our crops will not grow
without work, and so it is with our Or
der.
Let us make greater efforts during
the coming year to attend the meet
ings, and by your presence encourage
your officers to do their best.
1t will be my faithful endeavor to
carry out the orders of the master and
in his absence to take his place.
While have no message to bring to
you, ask your hearty cooperation to
make 1913 better in attendance and
greater in efforts for the success of
the grange.
Yours fraternally,
WM. H. TURNER.

REPORT OF LECTURER.

Worthy Master, Sisters and Brothers.
1t is impossib to measure in definite
terms all the grange has done for the
American farmer, because its greatest
achievements have been wrought not
in halls of leg gislation, or in the eyes of
the public press, but in the grange
halls and farm homes of our land.
The silent vet irresistible forces of
education exerted through the grange
have wrought for it its most signal vic
tories. The lecturer of the subordi-
nate grange, as the medium through
which this education has come in the
past and must come in the future, has
been prime factor in writing grange
history and in securing farm better
ment.
1t is idle to discuss which is the most
important officer in the grange, for all
have their particular work to do, but
I'll is fact remains, had there been no
lecture or educational work attempted
or accomplished there would have been
n) grange today.
History teaches that all progress and
development must come through educa-
tion-a desire must be created, de-
mand made. before conditions can be
improved or legislation enacted.
Lecturers must be leaders in thought
and action; they must incite, enthuse
and inspire the members of the order.
We should discuss and study not only
great public questions, but those per-
tanning to the farm. the school and the
home. This results in better methods
and improved appliances in the home
and upon the farm.
Opportunities for service for agri-
culture and humanity are open to lee
turers today as never before.
The grange spells Opportunity
for the officers and each and every one
of the members in the Order. 1t is in
our own grange hall we can receive our
training. develop latent abilities, over
come shyness and diffidence, help to
gain confidence IN ourselves, thereby
fitting ourselves for better citizenship,
for our life work and for leadership.
No grange can be a success that does
not contribute to tie education and
self improvement of'its members. The
degree of success of our grange will be
measured largely by what we shall be
able to accomplish along these lines.
To accomplish what we should, it is
not only necessary that the lecturer
plan wisely but that each one of the
members do their part in carrying out
these plans. Please remember that
when you have failed to take part in
any program when called upon, you
have not only disappointed your lectur-
er, hut disappointed and injured your
grange. and missed an opportunity for
selk improvement.
Your lecturer knows just how busy
