{ ——— e —————————————————— ECHOES FROM THE LODGE ROOM Palmyra Encampment Elects Officers—Christmas Observed at Odd Fellows Home—Organizer Duncan to Return to Norwich in Interest of Heptasophs. - E MODERN WOODMEN, An officlal circular has been lssued + from the Head Offices of the Modern ‘Woodmen of America explaining why there can be no referendum by the members, for 4 time at least, on the ! question of accepting or rejecting the : yeadjustment of rates adopted at Chl- cago In January, 1912, by the supreme legislative body of the soclety. The explanation is that Judge Mc- Kinley at Chicago, recently, on appli- { ; ¢ation by Addison Jones, an old mem- A ber, Issued an injunction prohibiting - the referendum on the ground that it | was unconstitutional. The ecircular ! notes the failure of the Modern Wood- men dissatisfied with the new rates to appeal from this decision, although they weze allowed to intervene in the | case and present an argument against the granting of the injunction. It ai- %0 notes that an application for a simllar injunction was made some months ago in an equity action filed at Galesburg, Ill, by M. H. Cleary of Galena, representing the dissenting Woodmen. It states that the society issued blanks for the referendum on July 1, the day the law took effect, and © had the plans ready for submission to | the state board when the Chicago in- Junction was issued. ‘The Modern Woodmen society, who!e readjustment rates as to new mem- | . bers went into effect last May, is es- tablishing new camps and holding class | adopticns and membership campaigns in various parts of the country.

REVENGE “Take him, if you want him, then revenge will be mine. you while I will have his money." “But Jack,” the girl protested. “Don’t try to plead with me. I tell if the old duffer gets you, you will have to take him with- out his money, for I will take it all.” “Oh, you can't mean it; remember your promise, Jack." “Yes, and 1 have kept that promise. have done nothing crooked, and I have lived a straight life for five years for the one girl in the world, and now she rewards me by giving herself to | another. Well, if the money dazzles | you it also tempts me. You have my | warning; and now I suppose you wiil tell him all” he flung at the girl crouching at his side. “Oh, please, please don’t talk that way. You want me to be happy, and money will make me happy. Oh, Jack, I have it. Suppose you do take this she found him hastily packing his be- ening at the thought of losing her lover. “Take you! After you have thrown over! The money is what you are you would take him with it or me with it; the man does not matter, so long as you get that you would be satisfied. No, I will not take you." Scorning the pleading eyes of the girl, he walked quickly from room. In a short while a robbery was com.

The rumor had it that the old man would be ruined by the loss. Lucllle Long heard the facts from her employer, and had heard of them from her lover, Jack Day, who she knew was guilty of the break. She was torn between love and duty, but her love won, with her thoughts of Jack's safety. As soon as possible that morning she sought his rooms, where she found hiw hastily packing his be- longings, preparing for a quick retrea: from the scene of his previous night's work. “You did it; I can tell by your face. No, I haven't told him,” this las! as she saw his face search hers in a vain attempt to know her errand there at that time of day. “What do you want of me?™ he de- |manded hurriedly, lest she interfere with his getting away. All the courage of the girl was gone as she humbly said: “Jack, I love you and not that mon- ey. Send it back and we will begin life anew.” “You mean this, vou would give up the money rather than lose me? grip- ping her arm. “Yes, that's it,” came faintly from the girl's lips. “Dmm / s open apms received her. Th! little /clock on the shelf ticked away for gsiong time unnoticed by the lovers before they began to make their plans for the future. A speclél messenger was summoned to carry bBack the money, accompanied by a letter telling all the facts. They made no attempt to go away and were surprised to see the messen- ger return with an answer which Jack hastily tore open.

Why, Luellle, money s nothing, Jack, for now I know you are honest.” She saw him tear the check In small pieces, then he turned to meet her with out- strerched arms. Their eyes met in mutual consent, and the torn pleces fell to the floor forgotien in their new-found happi- ness.—Boston Record.
