Locdl Eugles Lodge
Pluns Membership
Drive or Meeting

At a meeting attended by apz
proXimately go members, Bic
Horn Aerie No. 2749, F. o. E.
discussed the matter of a meet
ing place and planned a mem
berShip drive.
It was decided to retain the
present meeting place, back OF
the Horseshoe bar, temporarily
until other more satisfactory
arrangements can be made.
In launching the membership
drive, the lodge was divided into
four teams, which will compete
in bringing in members. The
local Eagles have issued a chal-
lenge to the Laurel lodge Gas
yet unanswered) in connection
with the membership drive, the
result to be judged by the per
cent of quota reached.
The Fraternal Order of Eagles
is the basis Of a four-page fea-
ture story in the February II
issue of Look magazine, Worthy
President Logan K. GrubbS has
been informed.
The story is concerned with
the Milwaukee Aerie of Eagles
and has numerous pictures OF
Eagles home and activities. II
stresses two important aims of
the fraternity, service to the
nation and fun for the mem
berS.
The story is particularly i'm
portant, GrubbS said, since the
F. o. E. celebrates its golden
anniversary on February 6 and
at present is engaged in the
Gold Rush" membership cam
paign communicating the be-
ginning of the order in Seattle,
Wash, February z, 1893, in the
heiOht of the Gold Rush days.
The feature in Look, which
viii appear on neWsstandS on
February 8, is the third such
article concerning the Eagles to
be printed in magazines of ma
tion-wide circulation in recent
months. The first was in Life
and the second was in a Janu-
ary issue of Golfers.
Big Horn Aerie No. 2749 Is
newly organized, Grubbs point
ed out, but nlans to take an
active part in civic affairs as
soon as possible.

us any good, though, unless
they feel THAT Hardin is tneir

permanent and valuable resi-

We've been fortunate enough
to meet several of them in our

quest for living quarters, and
every one seems to us to be
just the kind of new citizen
our town needs. 8
