won by dummy's ten. After cashing
the clubs, Louis led the queen OF

thus set up ninth trick.
Had he taken the first heart, he

BMC Not To

The Committee of Manage
ment of Grand United Order
Odd Fellows at its January
meeting, decided to postpone
the Biennial Convention known
as the B. M. c., and the cele-
bration Of the orders centen-
airy, scheduled to be held in
New York, N. Y, in August.
AS reason for postponement it
stated that as United States is
now at war, in the opinion of
the Committee of Management,
it would be futile to undertake
to hold the meeting and cen
tenary celebration at the cited
time. No specific date was set
for the postponement. The res
olution states that it is for the
duration Of the war or until
such time as conditions Incl
dent upon war shall warrant
the holding of the B. M. C.

conforming with the Govern
ment in the Civilian Defense
Programme by the conserva-
ton of food. Due to the fact
that foods of all kinds will be
scarce, it was voted that no

would purchase a house. None
was more enthusiastic than
Mrs. Lewis. There are many
to remember her and her first
lieutenant, Mrs. Martha Rob

eS, inspecting houses, etc. UNI
til a house that satisfied them
was found. The elegant man
sion at 558 Mass. Ave. was Of
feredt his pennileSs group, and
the offer was accepted.
This was faith. And the
men of Boston justified this
faith. From the first they
stood behind Mrs. Lewis. The
records should show the names
of men of the fraternal groups
who pledged definite monthly
sums for the support of the
work. When the crucial hour
came when the first thousand
dollar deposit was imminent,
the husbands of the Board
members came to the rescue
with a hundred dollars each,
ten of them at hundred
dollars each, and for good
measure, two or three outside
the Board family.
1t was Mrs Lewis who came
down to Camp Upton to ask
me to do publicity work for her
sewing and knitting group. 1t
was she who so enCnuSeo JIG
that I declined the govern
ment's offer as Camp Hostess.
Then after the big beautiful
housew as purchased and
cleaned and the women had
lavishly contributed furnish
ings from their own stores OF
linen and dishes and lamps and
cooking utensils, Mrs. Lewis
startled the group by offering
herresignation of the presi-
dency andsu ggeSting that MISS
Maria Baldwin be urged 10

then she had premonitions Of
