Mercer Plan Is Approved.

District Deputy James A. Patterson
Of Marquette, is in the copper country
eyplaining to the members of the vari-
ous local tents of the knights of the
Tented Modern Maccabees, the details
Of the proposed merger of this order
with the KNIGHTS OF the Maccabees of
the World.
This merger plan, which was given
the sanction Of the great camp of the
X. O. T. NJ, NJ. at its recent Bay City
meeting, was approved by the SUI
preme council of the Maccabees of the
World now in progress in Detroit.
At the 1907 quadrennial convention
Of the Maccabees of the World the
trustees were instructed to begin ne
gotiations for the amalgamation, and
an agreement was reached this year
which was satisfactory to both orders.
State Insurance Commissioner Win
ship demanded that the convention be
called for the purpose. though the
trustees consider that they were en-
powered in 1907 To take whatever
Steps seemed advisable, without re-
fering the matter to the organiza-
ton as a whole.
Secretary l.. f.. Sister, of the Macca-
bees Of the World, said that the ANAL
gamation will be OF great benefit to
both societies. His order has a MEM
bership of 26l,0O0, and the Modern
Maccabecs have $4,000 members, two
thirds of whom are in Michigan. BY
combining forces the expenses OF adj
mnstration will he greatly reduced
and there will he saving in other di-
rections. In Ohio, for instance, there
are 10000 Maccabees of the World and
$500 Modern Maccabees. One state
Office and one set OF officials will here
after take care Of the interests of both.
Port Huron will be the state headquar-
lers for Michigan. while Detroit will
he the world headquarters. The com
blned societies will form one of the
largest fraternal bodies in America.
