Suppose we had the entire mem
bership aroused, we would have added
a thousand members during this drive.
If SO presidents and local lodges can
add PIC before the drive terminates,
&c local presidents could have doubled

presidents would have added 864.

members, we find that the following
presidents have deceased members to

remember, they will be there trying

blame them for that, however, these
