by the council for the manner in which
he represented the class Of $50 at the class

Council expects large attendances at its
has promised to give a series of lectures
on social hygiene and eugenics.
The attendance Of the membership is
directed TO the action Of the executive
committee of the Senate by which, upon
recommendation of the superintendent
of the field department. the California
trip is nov offered to any member Of the
order who will. between January l, 1914
and February q, 1915, procure and have
initiated thirty-eight new members. who
must, it is true, be in good standing on
June 80, 1915 An examination of the pre-
vious offers of the privileges of this trip
will disclose the fact that this propo-
stion is distinctly a more favorable one
than the first offer. and one almost any
member may avail himself of with
little work and determination. The
change was made possible by the publi-
cation of railroad rates more favorable
than expected, and the trip itself will in
no way be cut down. 1t includes, as II
did originally. trip going out over the
Canadian Rockies, down the coast to San
Francisco, a week at the exposition. and
then Los Angeles, San Diego and South
ern California. Salt Lake City. the Royal
Gorge, Denver. and return TO Washing
ION. In all. twenty-three days will be
consumed, all railroad fare, Pullman on
special train. baggage. hotel. and meals
paid for. and II every day is not more
delightful and better filled with novel
sights and sensations than the preced-
ing one. it will be no fault Of the super
intendent of the field department
The exposition at San Francisco is
rapidly assuming such shape as assures
the most magnificent groups of build
inGs ever conceived. and the eager de-
of certain foreign countries
to be represented among the exhibitors,
in spite Of the decision Of their gov
ernments against such representation, in
dicates an interest in the exposition. in
addition to our own very natural one,
which makes the unqualified success of
the project certain. San Diego has fur
thermore. an exposition of its own. which
yields only in size to San Francisco, but
even were this attraction lacking. Cali
fornia and the remainder of the trip. in |
special Pullman trains and with a con-
genial party, would furnish entertain
ment and experience that could not be |
duplicated.
For further particulars relative to this |
trip see the general deputy. who would !
be delighted to give any information, as |
he is anxious to have many Washington |
friends apply for this trip to accompany /
