Mr. Harter has a suit tiled in court for salary due him. ¢ After reading the contract, Mr. Baldrige explained at length to the arbitrator how energetically and faithfully Mr. Hansel had labored as general manager of the soclety. “He went far beyond what was called upon him to do by the contract and con- stitution,” sald the attorney. “He even went Into the field and personally solicited and procured men to join the Christian Fra- ternity."” Mr. Baldiige then declared that in the transfer of the riske of the Christlan Fra- {ternity to the Security Mutual Life Insur- ance company cf Lincoln, his client had been done a great wrong, “not only in the |abrogation of his contract, but In the blast- ing of his hopes and aims to make the Christian Fraternity a great organization." Mr. Baldrige also pointed out that under Mr. Hansel's management the fraternity had grown unti! it had 912 members en- rolled in all households, and had $5,000 of life insurance written and 117 sick, accl- dent and funeral certificates made out. Nelson C. Pratt then rose to speak for Dr. Henry. He charged failure upon the part of Mr. Hansel in the conduct of the institution and declared ‘“‘the facts that the | socity did not grow faster, did not attain a greater size, that It was necesary to transfer the misks, these constitute proofs positive that the management of Mr. Han- sel was not efficient.” {SHIP YOUR PRIVATE BOOZE | IN YOUR OWN GOOD NAME | refully or Unele Get You In Beginning with January 1, you must have your malt, vinous and spirituous beverages shipped to you in your own name, with the contents of the packages plainly and ac- curately marked.
