If It Is a good thing for you It will be Just as good for them. The development of the fraternal orders during the past decade haa been most remarkable, and the untold good they have done has been a blessing to mankind. Many golden opportunities are lost because we put off until tomorrow what we could have clone today. If It takes the greater portion of a man's Income to provide for his loved ones, In the name of common sense what are they going to do If he is suddenly called to meet his Maker? The breadwinner of a family may become sick or die at any time, but those dependent upon him will require bread every day Just the same. The thoughtful man that has the best Interests of his loved ones at heart always makes proper provision for those who are depending upon Membership In a good fraternal order very often Is worth many times what you pay for It. There are some courtesies, privileges and honors re ceived at times that money cannot buy. "M. D. GLEASON." Barnes Lodgs No. 55, I. O. O. F.
