these trying conditions. Knowing the
beautiful tenets of the order and the
many virtues it contained, together
with the necessity of a Circle to be in
every town, she proceeded at once to
organize a Circle in her home town.
After laboring in the forest for some
time daily searching for desirable tim
Der, she succeeded in building a nice
Circle within her midst, and later rep
resented that circle at the state con-
vention in Tampa, Fla. in 1909, at
which session she was elected as a
state officer of the Florida Jurisdic
ton.
The value of her work soon drew
the attention of the supreme officers
and she was asked to go to Valdosta
and plant the seed of woodcraft in
that city, which she successfully did
and organized Mitchell Grove No. IS.

necessity of her services was so bad

At the Head Camp Convention
which met in Columbus, Ca, in 1911
she was elected Grand State Guardian
and also honored by being elected Su-
preme Delegate, and in June, 1911, rep
resented the Woodmen Circle of Geor-
gia at the Supreme Convention in Ro-
chester, N. Y, with credit to herself
and the state organization.
So we'll was the state represented
by Mrs Murrah that at the next state
convention which met in Thomasville
in 1913, she was again elected as their
leader and also returned as a dele
gate to the Sovereign Head Camp in
Jacksonville, Fla. 1t was at this meet
| ing that she was appointed as one of
the five on the Supreme Law Bench.
At the coming convention here, Mrs.
Murrah can deliver the Beetle of au-
thority over to her successor with a
clean and untarnished record; and one
of which the Circle may boast.
When we look over the result of her
work we can but see why she has been
so greatly honored. Out of 445 mem
bers initiated in 1914 she secured 301
of them; IA Groves built during the
same year, and she planted IL. The
number of Groves in the state at the
beginning of 1913 was 1O2. Since then
nearly 100 member have been added
and five new Groves planted. The
growth of the Circle has been wonder
full during her administration.

was then known, located a tree in the

FRANCE ARRANGES .....
100000 LOAN

Additional evidence of the determi-
nation of France. to carry the war
against Germany to a decisive termin-
alton regardless of cost, was furnished
last evening in official announcement
of the completion of negotiations OF
by the French government with Amer
lean bankers for a new loan of $780,
100000, says the New York Herald of
Friday.
This loan is to supplement Frances
half of the $5OO,OOOO0O left last fall
by American bankers and investors to
the government of Great Britain and
France jointly. AS in that case, the
proceeds of the new accommodation
are to be expended entirely in the
Jnitd States for munitions manufac-
turd here.
In connection with the new loan
Amerisan bankers have taken a step
novel to American financing and one
which indicates the progress the
United States is making in the world
finance. Instead of lending the mon
ey direct to France or underwriting
the loan and offering it directly to in
vestors here they nave adopted a
method better known in London and
Paris, hitherto the great lenders offer
ed for the organization of corpora
money to the world, and have arrang-
ton to carry out the transaction. This
body is to be known as the American
Foreign Securities Company. 1t is to
have a capital of $1O,OOO,OOO, subscrib.
ed by the group of bankers which ar
ranged for the loan, and will have at
it's head Mr.. Robert Bacon, at one
time United States Ambassador to

Since the organization of the Wood

$5,000000 or 1868 ,111.o0 per year. 1t
has erected about 5000 monuments
over the sleeping dust of it's deceased
members at a cost of 500 each total
100000. 1t has readily met every
claim and not one of it's sacred dead
sleeps in an unmarked and unkept
grave. 1t has today a surplus and
emergency fund of about four and one
half million dollars. On January 1,
1915, its membership was as follows:
Total number of groves, 1856; total
number of members, las, 105.
In the state of Georgia we have
1000 members, and during the past
two years only, we have paid out
$13,1S3.30 and erected 81 monuments
at cost of 100000. The first grove
organized in the state is Savannah

What glorious achievement! The

of all men be barred and bowed as this

MRS. MINNIE -MURRAH.

Mrs. Minnie Vann- Murrah, the Grand
Guardian OF the Woodmen Circle OF
the jurisdiction of Georgia, bears the
distinction OF being the only lady in
the state that has been honored with
a Sovereign office.
She was born and reared in the old
historic city of Savannah, Ga, married
and moved to Valdosta, and later to
Texas where she became affiliated
with the Woodmen Circle and re-
ceived all the honors they could be-
stow upon her.
On account of her husbands health
she moved back to Madison, Fla, (his
former home), at which place the cold
icy finger of death claimed her COM
panion.
Being left in the cold world alone,
she felt the need of sympathy and
care which her woodcraft sisters
could and would render her under

Larger postal savings deposits
will now be accepted at the postof-
flee. This is made possible by an
important amendment to the postal
savings act just approved by Presi-
dent Wilson. A postal savings de-
positor may aow have an account
amounting to $1,000 upon which In
terest will be paid. Formerly $500
was the maximum amount he could
have to his credit This enlarge
ment of postal savings facilities
will be very gratifying to thousands
of depositors who have already
reached the old $500 limit and are
anxious to entrust more of their
savings to Uncle Sam. Another fea-
ture of the amendment that Will
avoid further embarrassment to the
to the public and to postal officials
Is the doing away with the limit
cepted from a depositor monthly.
Under the old law only 500 could
be deposited In a calendar month.
The amendment abolishes this re-
striction. While the postal savings
system has already proved signal
success as Is shown by the fact that
more than half million depositors
have over eighty million dollars
standing TO their credit, still it has
fallen short of meeting the full de.
mands of the public because of the
restrictions which have now been
eliminated. Postmaster General
Burleson and Third Assistant Post
master General Dockery have been
tireless in their efforts to secure a
modification of the limitations and
the new liberalizing legislation Is
particularly gratifying to them.
