Myrtle Lodge has entered into a plan
to awaken renewed interest and enthu-
siasm in its membership by appointing
committees to make special visits to all
nonattending members that can be
reached within the next two or three
weeks and urge upon them the impor-
lance of giving more attention to their
lodge meetings. From reports received
at the last meeting it is said that good
results are already being accomplished
along this line, and 1t is thought that
the scheme might be followed with ad-
vantage at this particular time by ev-
cry lodge in the domain.
The meeting of the jubilee committee
tomorrow evening will be an important
one, and 1t is especially requested that
every member be present The time is
drawing near for the celebration, and
there is much yet to be done by all the
committees, the chairmen of which, it
can be said, have their work well in
hand, but the greatest possible activity
of all should be the slogan from this
time on. II is expected that the buttons
ordered for the local membership will
be ready for distribution at this meet
ing.
