the Society's Actuary, to
prepare a new dismember-
ment and surgical plan, for
which a bit more would be
paid in dues, but the men,
bers would receive opera
ton benefits for every OPP
Grafton, regardless of its
type or nature.
New members were able to
be insured under the new plan
beginning January 1, 1852.
All old members who were at
that time insured under the
old plan, and were paying Is
cents dues per month, but re-
ceived benefits for only a lin
tied number of operations and
disabilities, were given the
privilege to transfer, without
medical examination, to the
new plan, which would en-
title them to operation bene-
fits for every possible kind of
operation.
Under the new plan, all
members age 35 years pay
40 cents per month, and those
over age 35 pay 60 cents per
month. However, all members
who were previously insured
for double indemnity, were
required to submit to a med
ical examination, if they de-
sired double indemnity under
the new plan.
Many Shift To New Plan
At first, a relatively small
number of members applied
for transfer to the new plan.
The period during which
transfers to the new plan
were permitted without med
ical examination for members
insured under the old plan,
was extended several times,
before the members became
convinced Of the true value
Of the new plan from obser-
vation of actual experiences
and cases of fellow members
Within a year or two of the
adoption of the new plan, ev'
cry lodge had at least one
and larger lodges a number
of cases, which most clearly
pointed out to our members
| the difference between the
old and the new plan.
At lodge meetings, the
lodge secretary was frequent
ly required to read a letter
from the Supreme Office, ad'
vising that such-and-such
member, being insured under
the old plan which did not
cover his type of operation
was entitled to receive moth
ing by reason of his opera
ton.
Such a communication in
variably added that, had the
member been insured under
the new plan, the CFU woule
have paid him a certain
amount of operation benefits
as the new plan covers every
operation.
OF close to $4,000 men,
bers who were insured un-
der the old plan before JAN
uary 1, 1852, as above sta
ted, close to 10000 are now
remaining insured under

he couldn't stand the way the horse was eettin'

fierce but in the end it cost him good money.

Sometimes, on special occasions, Mr.. Swanson
would let me take down from the wall framed

This caption captured my eye
and had my attention in its grip
for, time. double time and half
time" 1t started me to reminiscing
and taking into account other items
of profound interest to me which
took place by action of Garrett
COuntians. | thought of a bill that
was to have been presented to the
House of Delegates which, if it had
passed, would have legalized lot
terieS and gambling of all sorts,
but because of interested citizens
and conforming representatives it
was not presented. | do know that
Garrett County citizens have much
to endure because of West Nir-
ginia's and Preston COuntys legal
iZation of liquors and its diSpen-
sary program. But the endurance
of its stencil is preferable to shar-
ing in its crime, so far as Garrett
County citizens are concerned. 1t
is a wonderful county indeed which
takes its citizens into account and
promotes for good government and
social decency In my judgment il
will stand aspirants to office in
Garrett County in good hand to
take this matter into account and

opinion he thought they were wise
in choosing Farm Bureau-"the

the Maryland Farm Bureau, urged
strong support for the rural de-

IF farmers can hold on for a few
more years. if they will cconomize

Mrs. August F. Neil, Friendsville
