MEMBERSHIP
CAMPAIGN. AMONG
MEMBERS

The Office is asking every local
president in the Association to send
the names and addresses of all their
members to the office in order that
we might have them before us.
We are planning to launch a<Mem-
bership Campaign among the -
members and this promises to be
one Of the greatest that we have
launched.
So often the membership leaves
the growth Of the local lodge up to
the local president and as a result,
we have not done too much. 1t is
going to take all of the members and
local presidents working together
comparatively and harmoniously to
put things over. The presidents
cannot do it by themselves and the
members c nm o t do it by them
selves, however, if the presidents and
members get together, big things can
and will be done.

Report Blanks To Be

If the secretary of the lodge will
make out the report blank with ink
it will be much better to read in the
Office. So often the secretary or
president uses a light pencil and it
Is hard to read when we begin
checking the report.
If the reports are written in ink
or indelible pencil it will assist in
eKpediting the business in that par
