ECHOES FROM THE LODGE ROOMS
Changers Anticipate Neighbors' Nightk..o F. Supreme Lodge Representatives Report-Norwich Aerie Invites Mayor and Common Counci-Th names Lodge N E. O. P. Will Observe Anniversary

The value of lodge attendance IS ] vigorously set forth in 8 pamphlet issued by the state officials of one i of the large orders in the city. The lidea originated several years ago Ill Edaine and has been found to be a strong factor in the campaign to get lodge members to attend their lodge lbusiness meetings. The circular says;
 A member who does not attend the ledge meetings does not and cannot keep in touch with the order. and sucn one is more easily led to become in different about the value of his or ner protection and to neglect paying the Assessments and dues in season to keep in good standing, Because Of lack of knowledge of facts some members are led to believe that the protection furnished by fraternal associations IS uncertain as to cost, and as protec- ton and there is little wonder that they allow themselves to be suspend ed and thus greatly imperil their pro lection and later lose all they have paid into the order.
 You are needed in your lodge room to help carry the responsibility that only a. few have to carry for you. but who have as good right to refuse to go there and attend to it as you have, if you live in the vicinity of your own lodge.

Dear Editor:-I was so glad when read The Corner to find was @ real Yellow Ribbon Cornerite. l wonder ii all the Sisters experienced those lit tie thrills of joy to see their first let ter printed, I did?

SOCIAL CORNER.
TWO WAYS OF BEING WAsTEFUI

The old saving, "Wilful waste makes woeful want is responsible for a part of the high cost of living.
 Mrs. Brown has a dress that IS of because it may be in fashion again. It would make pretty dress for her little daughter and one for her little niece, but she buys Bessie a new one and the moths fuin the old dress.
 Mrs. c has a coat saved for com mon wear" but never wears it and her sister has to buy new one and go without many needed articles be- cause 8 coat costs all she can spare. As she lives in a distant state no one would have known the coat.
 Miss A has a box of ribbons that will never be used and her neighbor has hard work to provide hair ribbons for family of little girls.
 Mrs. D sells old rugs to the rag man for almost nothing that her country cousin would be glad to pay more than she received beside the eX-
 press.
 Sheets and table linen are put In the rags that would be a help in a family where there is sickness, or It, tie children.
 Mrs H would say she could not af- ford to give away the food she cooked because of the visitors who did not come, but she afforded to put it in the garbage can after it was spoiled. There IS fruit ana VegetaDleS enousn that rot in every town to supply every family if they were used; but those who have them cannot use them all, and do not feel able to give them away for fear of coming to want, and those
 who need them most cannot afford to pay for them.
 And in every New England town there is suffering every winter because some families cannot pay for fuel, and | in every town hundreds of cords of | wood are rotting on the ground. The 1 owners can't afford to give it to the poor.
 Christ said He would appreciate every kindness to the least of His | brethen, especially the little children and many cases of want and trouble | can be traced to selfishness and cruel | ty in the past. We waste what we can't use ourself and will not let any ! one else. We. are afraid of bringing want on ourselves, or our family, by | being too generous to others, and the | things we are saving do no good tc | anyone.
 | Can't we Sisters plan to help some
 one less fortunate during the coming hard winter.
