RITUAL OF 'BEN-HUR" IS FOUNDED ON LIFE

that is its major business. 1t en-
forces morals because its story is
powerful.
Effects Of Story Tremendous
One pauses in the tremendous eff
fects Of the story itself, to analyze
the reasons for the grip that 'Ben-
Hur''takes on the human heart. One
forgets the literary quality and even
the dramatic quality. One remem-
bers only the totally of the i'm
preston. Here, in the reading Of
"Ben-Hur", or in the seeing Of the
play, is a great story admirably
portrayed. The individuality is COM
pletely enveloped ~ play and story.
The men who made the Tribe Of
Ben-Hur one of the great orders Of
the country have absorbed the at
mosphere and color Of Ben-Hur.
The man who joins Ben-Hur, after
reading the book and seeing the
play realizes, in subconscious way,
that. he is living what he has seen.
He feels that subtle grasp of the
books morals-he lives amidst the
historic environment that made the
Christian religion.
And yet the Tribe of Ben-Hur is.
only indirectly religious. It. appeals
to persons Of all denominations and
cults. It has vivified basic facts in a
moral philosophy in such, way IS
to make its creed attractive to all
ipersons. The teachings Of the lodge
are not a cold formal process. They
ARE q living entity. They grip the
souls Of men and women and give
direction to the impulses Of their
hearts.
The growth Of the Tribe of Ben
hur, therefore, IS due more to hui
man impulses than to Journalism.
Many lodges depend for their ritual
istic appeal upon immobile and un-
inspiring moral tenets-as, for ex-~
ample that it is best to do right.
The story of Ben-Hur enforces' this
lesson, not a. an abstract PROPOSE
tion, but as very concrete thing.
The members Of the Ben-Hur live
in actua1ity. not in Journalism. d

The supreme officers Of Ben-Hur
are enthusiastic about the close as
sociatiqn between the Wallace story
and their order It il not perfume

and women who dwell in the order
of Ben Hur dwell also in the spirit
that gave the Wallace story its won
derful human appeal. The member

The Morgan City daily review. (Morgan City, La.) 1916-1920, 1917-01-18

Indiana ranks highest among all
the states having benevolent organi-
cations because Of the distinctive
position occupied by the Supreme
Tribe Of Ben-Hur. Ben-Hur is more
than a lodge. It is more than a be-
nevolent organization. It is more
than an insurance association. 1t
is a broad, concrete social influence.
One of the significant facts about
Ben-Hur is that it has been able to
survive all of the changes and evo-
lutions of benevolent organizations
in the state. Today it is the only
fraternal order doing business in
Indiana. It has grown, in the state
and outside, because it has appealed
to the fundamental inspiration OF
individuals--it has become an instr
tutional influence because OF the
character of it's organization.
Ben-Hdr is one Of the most I'M
portant insurance social organiza-
lions Of the country. In dozens OF
other states in the Union it is one
Of the large fraternar Ind insurance
societies because it has appealed to
basic principles.
Few other organizations in the
United States can boast Of the same
component elements. Ben-Hur de.
ponds for its attraction on literary
masterpiece, Gen Lew Wallace's
"Ben-Hur." The effects of that
book has been widespread. Few
modern stories have been as widely
translated as "Ben-Hur." Few
stories have had the same moral
effect. Gen Wallace wrote not
merely q story but an epic. He
wrote. in terms -of. everyday life, g
creed Of conduct. He vizualized and
vivified. the things that make the
fact Of modern life. He gave the
Christian religion. the great COM
polling fact ON modern life. He gave
it dramatic force and moral direc-
ton. He interpreted history and the
Bible itself in terms Of everyday
understanding. That fact accounts
for the popularity Of the book
"Ben-Hur" in many languages.
The originators of the order Ben
Hur have taken all that is best and
most lasting in the story written by
Cen. Lew Wallace. Their ritual j.
