Janléd Twelve Courts RepmM With View to a Twelve of the courts of Koresters in this part of the state were repre- sented by their officers as delegates at a meeting held in this city in Pyth- ian hall on Sunday afternoon, at which Grand Chief Ranger James Roach of Waterbury, Grand Financial Secretary Thomas O'Loughlin and State Organ- izer Walter R, Canfield of Bridgeport were present. The delegates attend- ing numbered about fifty. Upon_their arrival at 2.30 the vis- iting officers were met at the train by a reception committee from the three local courts, F. J, Murtha, A. G. Cro- well and Edward P. Pratt, and escort- ed to the Wauregan house, where they had dinner in the grill room. The meeting iu the hall opened at 8.20, with Grand Chief Ranger Roach presiding. He introduced the subject of membership gain, which was the purpose in calling the conference, stat- ing that there had been some districts in the state which had shown marked gains, but the state as a whole had shown a loss in the past year, due to the financlal depression., Waterbury was the banner city for new members, 400 having been added there in a class initlation, and Bridgeport had had a class initiation with 150. He recom- mended that plans be put on foot to have a class initiation in this terri- tory, Another suggestion was that this might be heiped along by reducing the Class Initiation. initiation fee, which it is in the power of each subordinate court to do, if it be so inclined. This suggestion did not meet with favor among the dele- gates, The recording secretaries of the sub- ordinate courts reported what had been done by their members, the following being heard from: <Courts City of Nerwich, Nathan Hale of New Lon- don, John Mason of Noank, Wequon- nock of Taftville. Sachem of Norwich, ‘Windham of Willimantic, Lafayette of Danielson, Quinebaug of Norwich, Liberty of Voluntown, St. Mary's of Willimantic, H. B. Mallory of Sterlin~ and, City of Putnam. Losses were shown in some directions, but the three Norwich courts were able to show that they had maintained their membership in good shape. | The other grand officers also. spoke with enthusiasm of the good that could be accomplished for the order by con- certed action at this time and the conference was carried on for most of the afternoon with remarks by a num- ber of the delegates. The suggestions made will be brought up for action at the next meeting of the courts. Before the visiting grand officers de- parted on the 6.55 train, coffee and sandwiches were served by the re- freshment committee, consisting of Louis J. Lynch, Alexander Carberry, Joseph R, Portelance and W. H. Cal- lahan. GRAND LODGE, F. & A. M. Annual Session tc Be Held This Week in New Haven.
