Pittsburgh, Pa. - March

two and a half weeks remain
during which our Junior Term
members may yet exchange
those graded Term certifi-
Gates for the new CSC con-
tracts which guarantee the
full $500 mortuary benefit.
We've written about this
subject on many occasions
and described both the ad-
vantages of the new Term
contracts and the proce-
dure for exchange.
Further lengthy writing is
needless, for we feel that our
Nest Managers have also ad-
equately acquainted everyone
concerned with all the par
ticulars.
Scale Tells The Story
This will serve as the final
reminder of the deadline for
the exchange, which is the
end of this month.

Ha milton, Ont. - The
Mothers Club was organized
for all the mothers of Nest
397 members and the mar
ried female members Of
Lodge GA.
The club held it's first
meeting in December, 1855,
but only a small percentage
of members has been attend
ing the monthly meetings.
The clubs president, Mary
Eleyanich, has gone about
for the club by donating the
use of her house for meetings
and performing many other
deeds for which she is not
seeking credit or praise. Her
only interest is to see that
the club is successful.
Mother OF Six Praised
Another woman and club
member worthy of praise is
Mrs. Muzak.
She could, if she wanted,
find more excuses for not at
tending meetings than any
other member. Mrs. Muzak
has six children and lives in
another town.
She has, however, attended
every meeting and, together
with her husband, has helped
at the dances we have spon-
sored.
Next Meeting March 16
The next club meeting will
be held Friday, March 16, in
the Y. w. c. A., Ottawa ST.,

We would like to see every
member present at this meet

to come.

All those whose old Term
contracts are not now provid-

coverage would do well to
seek the exchange.
To emphasize this point we
want to cite an example. The
Junior Order Department re.
ceived it's first death report
for the current year in the
first days of January.
The member had had q
Term certificate for Just
over 5 years. The depart

Campaign Spotlite
Canadian Vaults
Into Second Place

Through last Friday,
March 8, adult protection
written amounted to $685.
900 and juvenile insurance
to $3.50, 800 or $1,0S4,3O0
In all.
Surprising has been the
amount Of permanent type
business written by the Jun
ior Order Department, which
is expanding by leaps and
bounds and is an odds-on bet
to smash all previous juvenile
membership and insurance
records before the Campaign
ends.

seeing the wisdom of taking

ton on their children and
thus making more secure the
future of the youngsters.

head the parade in this re-

was being challenged for the

heard of in this Campaign
only two weeks ago.
The challenger is Joseph
Secen, Secretary of Val

Society's most active and
productive members in the

1O4 Points to his credit as of

the interim to account for POI
) more Points by March 9 to

Points to date and second spot
in the rapidly changing Cam
paign standings.
To put it another way, bros
Buktenica, former member of
the CFU Children's Home
Board, and Secen are now
"half way across" the At

both will make the grade in
the end is a foregone con-
clusion.
