The year of 1910 saw the inaugura- tion of new rates in the Improved Or- der of Hetpasophs and it must be said to their credit that they were met with eling on the part of the great ma- jority of the wisdom and justice of the change, and the lapses from dissat- isfaction in regard to them are hard- Iy more than one per cent. of the mem- bership. Norwich conclave has not had any lapse from that cause alone, and has several candidates to be ini- tiated at an early meeting. Tle order has gained very largely during the past year, many new conclaves being insti- tuted throughout the west and middle Past Archon Henry Grodotzke s from Portland, Ore. that he is doing finely and is much pleased with |the place and the prospects and ex- pects to organize a large conclave in that city at an_early date. | The death of Supreme Secretary Tat— | tersall was a severe loss to the order, |coming at a time when the change in rates was just being made, and retard- ed the work temporarily, but the ap- pointment of Frank E. Pleetner to that office will keep the order on the road to the attainment of a membership of 100,000 before it is very much older.

Because of a recent ruling of the postal department, by which frater- 2l papers like the Royal Arcanum Guide, which is the official publication of the order. cannot carry advertise- ing in their columns, the supreme of the order is asking that subordinate councils memorialize senators and congressmen for a all the change in the law. The effect of the ruling is to make a_ change in the postage rates for the fraternal papers. At the meetings of the two local councils, the matter was presented and memorials passed to be sent to Senators Brandegee and Bulkeley and to Representative Higgins. _ At/ the meeting of Thames council, No. 1851, on Wednesday evening, ~When the councils of “group seven” had repre- sentatives present, Orator W. T. Cur- ry of Thames council, who lives at Leonard’s Bridge, was accorded the spceial honors of the evening for the pleasing way in which he conducted the good of the order and also for his perfect record of attendance in his present term, although he has to drive 11 miles to attend a meeting.

EASTERN STAR. meéeting of Sachem No. 57, was held on Wednes- evening at the Buckingham Mem- the rgeular business being sacted with Worthy Matron An- nie L. Rawson presiding. For the ben- efit of those who were not able to at- d the anniversary celebration of elity chapter in New London on riday, the 18th, there were reports om 'a number of those who went. These showed a delightful time carried out by the Fidelitv Stars, who have annually invited Sachem chapter to their celebrations for the last few vears. This year there were eighteen of the Sachem mmbers who attended. WOMAN’S RELIEF CORPS.

Dnrwner, the oldest member of the cqrps. She was 82 and in recognition of her birth- day a beautiful Easter lily was pre- nted through the president, Mrs. Eva Caulkins. In acknowledging the gift with much gratitude Mrs. Downer con- trasted the beautiful summerlike weather of Friday with the day she was born, when she sald thers was such a terrible snowstorm that it was ith great difficulty that the Tnedical attendants could be secared It seemed to her, she said, that it seemed as if the days had been grow- ing brighter ever 3 Another pleasant feature» of the meeting was a paper read by the corps Ppatriotic instructor, Mrs. Annie E.

PATRONS OF HUSBANDRY. Norwich grange, No. 172, met in in Pythian hall, Worthy Master An- drew B. Davies in the chair, and aft- er the business had been disposed of there were several talks given which afforded instruction on_the subjects they treated. Charles W. Lillibridge spoke on Melon Raising, Past Worthy Master Woodbury O. Rogers on How to Set a Hen, and Amos Wheeler on housekeeping from a masculine stand- point. ELKS, More excitement was caused Friday | morning in Jewett City than the state police made the night before, when Hans and Fritz, the goats of the Nor- | wich lodge of Elks, were loaded into thelr especially prepared car in which they will be brought to Norwich Mon- day, March 28. They will be seen on | the 'streets every day almost, now, and will also be placed in one of the Main | street store windows. MODERN WOODMEN.* Tonic camp, No. 7694, held its regular meeting_last Monday evening in For- esters’ hall, presided over by Consul Allen C. Matthews, and there was a good attendance. Néw names for mem- bership were received and the work promises to keep on steadily. A re- port of the recent observance of the camp’s anniversary was received from the committee in charge, which re- ceived a vote of thanks for their effi- clent services on that occasion. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS. C. C. Sumner W. Armstrong pre- sided on Friday evening in Pythian hall at_the regular meeting of Gard- ner lodge. No. 46, which had some special items of business to transact. Preliminary information has been re- ceived by the lodge of the supreme lodge session, which is to be held in August in Milwaukee. It is likely that Some of the Gardner lodge men will attend. HIBERNIANS. Division No. 2 held its regular meaS ing last Tuesday evening in Hibernian hall, President E. J. Murtha in the chair, Outside of usual business, the members were all urged to be present at the next meeting, which is to be a social -evening on which Dr. D. J. Shahan is to speak. The Rockfeller Foundation. The Rockefeller foundation will be a good thing to those who handle the funds—that much is certain. There will be life positions, easy work. and big pay. The imagination runs for- ward and sees a swarm of faddists, innovators, reformers, grafters, and visionaries buzzing about this pile of money, eager to aid in disbursing it to humanity, including themselves. It wiH be a miracle if some of these up- lifters do not get in their work, there- by dissipating the funds in pursulng impracticable schemes. Surely this country is not in need of a hotbed for <he propagation of more harebrained reformers than are already at large. The foundation will not benefit the country nor hasten the millennium by encouraging such persons, It is a | question, indeed, whether it will not do more harm than good by training | professional almoners. The American people as a nation are not in need of charity from Mr. Rockefeller. There is still a spirit of self-reliance and independence. It has been weakened here and there by mil- lionaires who bestowed their millions unwisely, but the mass of the people perceive that something gotten for nothing is not worth having. They prefer to earn their own way, and will not eat the bread of idleness. If the Rockefeller foundation should tend to undermine the self-reliance and self- respect of voung Americans, it will prove to be a curse, instead of a bless- ing, so far as its influence extends.— ‘Washington Post. When the foundations are all estab- lished. the schools and !losplta{s en- dowed, and, the libraries all built, a other and perhaps graver problem wi arise. The public, following its natu- | ral bent, is not likely to be satisfied. It will be recalled that piety and su- | perstition. acting on the minds of rich men of the middle ages, led to trans- erence of a third of all property to the church and to ecclesiastical in- stitutions. Then arose the troubles | over mortmain. A mighty revolution | was effected and the wealth was wrest- ed from the guardians to whom it was confided. Casting the mind ahead we can foresee the time when per- haps there will arise in this country a similar demand for the breaking up of the foundations whose creation now causes general rejoicing. It will be asserted that those who live a life of ease out of the income of bonds and securities set aside by the Rock- | efellers and the Carnegies are para- | sites and cumberers of rather than | promoters of the common good.—New York Life. The monopoly of charity would prob- to society poly of sugar and oil Imagine the moral and intellectual condition of a people who had fallen into the way of having all its humane impulses attended to by a charity trust capable of relieveing everybody from the pressure of a personal sense of re- sponsibility for the crueltles and ca- lamities of the world. Mr. Rockefeller’s representative for this project has asured us that the victims of earthguakes, tornados, pest- ilence, fire and flood—and presumably also the victims of commercial ex- ploitation and unjust laws—will ail be cared for by the Rockefeller founda- tion. Nobody outside the trust need bother his head or heart any more about anything excent the saving of his own skin—and the support of this wonderfui chartered providence. The people will think not only twice. but thrice also, before investing the national hopes in so dazzlitg a prop- lon. The profits offered b the pro- moter are too large.—New Yorw Amer- Women and Stage Morals.
