Annual Christmas Party for
the members of Junior Nest
60 will take place on Sunday,

The days festivities will
begin promptly at 200 PM
with the showing of two mo-
vies which have a running
time of some forty-five min
utes.
From past and sad expert
ences we found that our little
tots do not have the patience
to sit through long and drawn
out movies, so we decided to
bring them two short reels of
high interest.
Immediately following the
films refreshments of all
sorts will be served by the
ladies of the Benwood LODI
ges. There will be plenty of
everything as in previous
years, and the ladies are 60
ing to see to it that no one
goes home disappointed.
AS always old st. Nick has
promised to be on hand with
bells on and make certain
that each member of Junior
Nest 60 receives his gift of
fine mixed Christmas candy.
We urge the parents of our
Junior Nest youngsters to
make sure that their kiddies
are in attendance at the par
ty on December 5th and re-
ceive their treats and gifts.
We old timers will enjoy the
festivities if we just loosen
up and leave our troubles at
home for the day.
Let us acquaint our chill
dren with our wonderful or
ganization, a Society which
will eventually look to them
for survival, by bringing
them to their exclusive party
being prepared on Sunday,
December 5th.

increase the amount of the
LIEN, and eventually the a
mount of the LIEN equals
the amount of the RESERVE
and when this happens, the
certificate automatically be-
comes worthless.
Must Pay Dues Until So
The other false impression
which our members seem to
have is that they are no long
er required to pay their
monthly dues if they have
been members over so years,
or if they have passed the age
OF 65.
In order to correct this
false thinking, l might state
briefly that all members who
are insured on the Whole Life
Plan are required to pay their
dues until their Goth birth
day, after which time they
are no longer required to pay
any dues, and are then con-
sidered as members with ma
tured paid-up certificates.
All the rates for the Whole
Life certificate are figured by
the actuaries based on the
age of 96 as the age of ma
turity, which is the reason
why the Whole Life rates are
the lowest Of any other GER
tificate.

Calumet Ledge viii
Can Annual Meet With
Party For Youngsters

Calumet, Mich. - Once a.
gain the time has come to
issue a call to all members
of "St. Joseph" CFU Lodge
9O3 reminding them Of the
Annual Meeting and election
of Officers, which will be
held on Sunday, December 5,
at 2 o'clock in the afternoon
at st. Joseph's Church Hall
on Eighth Street.
Brothers and Sisters. Dur
ing the year usually only the
officers and a handful of
faithful regularly attend the
monthly meetings, while most
of you neglect to attend to
this duty.
1t is not right that a small
percentage of the member
ship shoulder all responsible
ties by making decisions and
approvals at meetings, while
the majority stays away. We
each have a share in this in
vestment and we are each
jointly and separately respon-
sible for its well-being and
growth.
So, put all plans away that
you may have for Sunday,
December 5th and come to
the Annual Meeting of the
Lodge. We expect a 1000
attendance, which we deserve
to partly compensate for
your negligence during the
year.
Come and help elect a good
set of officers and give them
full support in the coming
year. We also have other i'm
, portant matters to take up at
this meeting and we must
formulate plans for the year
1855.
AS usual, a social hour will
follow after the meeting. Our
good ladies of the Lodge have
promised to prepare a fine
lunch, while the men will see
that there will be plenty of
refreshments and smokes.
For many years we have
combined this hour with en-
tertainment for our Junior
Order members and we shall
follow this up again. Bring
your youngsters to the meet
ing or tell them to come la
ter, when the meeting is fin
ished. about $50 Pm. There
will be plenty of eats, candy
and pop and a good time is
assured everyone.
At this time we wish to
take this opportunity to wish
the Supreme Board of CFU,
Editorial Staff of the Zajed-
nicar, Employees in the Su-
preme Office, and all men,
bers of the CF'U a very Mer-
ry Christmas and a Happy
New Year.

BY Joseph Bella
Supreme Secretary

hCtoDuh 81, "' W ~
ceived a very interesting let
ter from one Of our lodge sec
retaries last week, the con-
tents of which requires a col
umn of comment and expla-
nation in order to curtail and
prevent the incorrect line of
thinking which evidently eX-
lists among our members at
the present time.
The first subject in ques-
tion pertains to members who
have large liens against their
certificates, and who are not
in position to pay anything
toward this indebtedness, but
are barely able to meet the
monthly dues payments on
their certificates.
The impression which our
members have on this ques-
ton is that the lien indebted
ness does not become any
larger, whether or not any
payment is made on said in
debtedness, which / must
state is very much incorrect.
Explanation Of Reserve
Before we can begin to ex-
plain this question, we must
first distinguish the differ
ence between liens, loans and
reserves on certificates,
which are the 3 types Of in
debtedness allowed by our
Organization against the GER
tificate of a member.
A RESERVE is the equity
which a member has on his
certificate, the amount of
which depends on the type of
certificate, the amount of in
surance and years of men,
bership. On a 20 Year En-
dowment Certificate, such re-
serves begin to accumulate
after 2 full years of member
ship, and after 3 full years
of membership on the other
types of certificates.
Therefore, when a member
stops paying his dues to the
lodge, the lodge automatically
places such member on re-
serve, if he has any. This
means that instead of the
member paying his dues with
cash from his own pocket,
said dues are paid from the
reserve which the member
has accumulated on his certi-
ficate.
However, the longer the
member remains on reserve,
the smaller his reserve be-
comes, and if the reserve is
exhausted completely, t h e
certificate of such member is
automatically terminated. In
other words, the reserve is
considered the same as cash,
the only difference being that
no actual cash is being used.
The Question OF Liens
Now we come to the ques-
ton of LIENS.
A lien is an indebtedness
against a certificate, the
same as a cash loan, and is
subject to the same interest
charges. The only difference
between a LIEN and a CASH
LOAN is that when a lien is
issued on a certificate, no &C
tual money is handled as with
a cash loan.
A lien is merely an indebt-
edness placed on a certificate
in one lump sum to remove a
member from reserve and to
restore such member back in
to a regular membership sta
tus. This means that the re-
serve, which was used up by
the member for non-payment
of dues, is a debt placed a.
gainst the certificate in the
form of a lien, and merely re-
places the member from re-
serve to a member with a lien.
The same amount Of debt ex-
lists on the certificate, the
only difference being that the
word LIEN replaces the word
