beg to correct an error in your
report in last weeks issue, relating
to membership of "The Modern
Woodmen of America" You stated
that total membership in the United
States is 97,796, where in fact, this
number of new members have Joined
since January 1st, 1916. The total
beneficial membership in good stand
ing August 1st, 1916 was 990,113.
The Society determined to add 10O,-
600 new members during the current
year, and up to October 1st, the
above 97.796 had been secured.
Death benefits exceeding one mil
liam dollars per month are being paid,
and the present reserve fund is suf-
ficient to pay all claims for the next
year, if no further assessments were
made during that time. We have
the greatest fraternal insurance soci-
ETY. in existence, and aside from the
insurance feature, an order that
stands very close to the top in the
secret society list.
Very truly yours,
