organizations of the Royal Arcanum is the
Hospital Association, which in modest
but practical way has been doing a gem

movement Is distinctive and original, and
while peculiar to the Royal Arcanum, is
well worthy of imitation by less progress
sive sister fraternties.
Much good has been accomplished and
a wider field of laudable achievement is
projected for the future.
The movement has the cordial support
of the councils, and it's merit is generally
appreciated.
