The most important thing done by the national board of directors of the Knights of Columbus at their quarter- Iy meeting in New Haven this week was the removal of the ban that has Leen on members of the order in the southern states from participation the insurance benefits of the order. The national order has refused mem. bers of the order in several southern states for insurance, because of the risk that it was assumed would be tak- en. The fear of yellow fever and other diseases in these parts caused the na- lonal Knights of Columbus directors not to let those members living ‘in southern states into the insurance class, but now all this has been re- moved. The national order has been making investigations on its own ac- count of the climatic and health condi- tions in the states of Florida, Arkan- sas, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Tex- as and Tennesses, and the directors have concluded that the health condi- tions in those states have so much im- directors ported that there hasn’t been yellow fever in the south in 30 years, reports to the con notwithstanding. As the order has 160,000 members of the uninsured class against 80,000 insured members, the national board of di- rectors anticipate a big increase in the ranks of the insured membership. The directors are to begin-at once a Ppropaganda of insurance, and much literature on the subject is to be sen! The national secretary reported that the assets of the order now amount te $3.269,000, 'and that there are now a total of 1,478 councils. The next quarterly meeting of the national board ,-of directors will ba held in Washi; D. C., on April 24. In response to an invitation from San Jose council, No. 14, of Williman- tic to attend the exemplification of the third degree Sunday afternoon, Janu- ary 22, at 2 o'clock, a number of the members of White Cross council, No. 13, will journey to Willimantic tomor- row by the 12.45 trolley. On the following Sunday, White Cross council will have a class in the third degree numbering about 25, in- cluding men from Taftville and Mont- ville councils. State Deputy William J. Mulligan of Thompsonville has no- tifled the council that he will be pres- ent then, which will be an added at- traction for the meeting, ag it is his first visit to this section. With the well known reputation of White Cross council for working the third and the visit of the state deputy, a big at- tendance of visiting sir knights from the nearby councils is expected. FORESTERS. Court Sachem, No. 94, gave one of its successful evenimgs of whist on Thursday in Foresters’ hall from 8 to 10.26 p. m., with twenty-five tables playing.

Burns for- feited his policy of $3,000 by enter- ing th& liquor ‘business while he was @ member of the Ancient Order of United Workmen, was upheld this week by Judge William H. Williams, who handed down a decision in the superior court at New Haven giving back to his widow the sum of $122 paid to the Grand lodge from the time he had entered the liquor business un- til- his death occurred. Burns was a resident of Waterbury and was well known there. He was a member of America lodge, . No. 44, while this branch was part of the grand lodge of ‘Massachusetts. ‘hen this lodge be- came a part of the Connecticut Grand lodge when the state body and the Massachusetts organization separated, he remained a member, and had been one up to the time of his death. 'hat no member should become con- nected with the liquor business was one of the rules of the order, and by entering the trade Burns, the officérs claimed, forfeited all his rights 2s a ‘beneficiary. He became a saloon pro- prietor in September, 1907, but contin- ued to pay assessments until October 2, 1910. The officers of the grand lodge received his payments and claim that they did not know of his connection with the liquor business. The pay- ments amounted to $122. These were remitted to the widow, Mrs. Mary E. Burns, but the policy was forfeited. The case may be appealed to the supreme court. DEGREE OF POCAHONTAS.

The mnext whist of the club will follow the regu- lar meeting of Sebequonash ‘council in Foresters’ hall on Mondey evening next, and they will have another home whist in two weeks. The council meet- ing on Monday evening will be as short as possible, to make way for the whist that is to follow. SONS OF HERMAN.
