8 Day Limit on
Death Certificates

If you will read at the bottom of
our official H. B. A. death certifi-
Gates you will find the following
line: This report must be in the Of
flee of the General Secretary with

am afraid that some of our pres
idents, when they lose a member by
death, fail to read this line. We do
know where a president has a men,
Der who happens to live in a diff
ferent city that it will most likely
take more than eight days to get the
blank properly filled out by all con
cerned, but we are having some
presidents to lose membeds who live
in the same town, to take their own
time about looking after their bust
ness.
We are asking that you please CO.

We have had some complaints from
local lodges that some of our presi-

without having had the lodge to
vote on said applicants. We would
like to inform all concerned that all
application blanks for membership
in the local lodges must come
through the local lodges as our Con-
stitution provides.
Your secretary record should show
when these applications were re-

were initiated; when the certificates
were issued, etc.
Presidents, you are requested to
keep an accurate record of all ap-

If you do not have an official sec
rotary record, you should get one
and help us to keep your records.
