THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

home fund assessment on Odd Fellows is now $1.20 a year, Bornwasser said. Decision to remodel the girls’ dormitory also was reached. Present dormitory accommodations are crowded, and the remodeling is expected to take care of present occupants. The old hospital has been taxed to capacity for the last few years, and a waiting list has been established. The old building will be used as an annex for the new structure, Bornwasser said. Building operations will begin when the fund has become large enough to meet the initial costs of construction.

Story of Organization Is One of Work by James J. Davis. (Prepared by The Publicity Department of The Loyal Order of Moose) How a fraternity grew from a small, discouraged band of men numbering 200 to an international organization with more than 700,000 members is the story of the Loyal Order of Moose. It is the story, too, of one man inspired by an ideal who had the energy and perspective to "put it over.’’ That man was James J. Davis, director of the Order and United States Secretary of Labor. In 1906 the Moose was faltering and as an organization was ready to expire. In fact, at the very meeting in which Mr. Davis joined, in Crawfordsville, Ind., there was a movement to disband and hold suitable? obsequies over the remains. But Davis was young and inspired. He became the 247th member of the order. Advocate of Home A native of Wales, an iron puddler in the iron mills of Pennsylvania, his life had been rich with experience. Often he had seen the families of workmen who died from disease or who were killed by accident, separated from one end of the country to the other, the children coming to adulthood without remembering their brothers or sisters. Speaking about it late, Davis said: “I had had a great deal of fraternal experience. Fraternities were the hobby of my life. In all of them I had been a strong advocate, of a home for orphaned children, widows and the aged. Many Early Struggles "I saw ip the Moose an opportunity to put over my views and on condition that I be allowed to reorganize the fraternity and name the Supreme Dictator, I consented to enter it.” Os course there were early struggles and disappointments. The organization had to learn as it grew. Enthusiasm flowed and ebbed. But through it all the young leader kept steadily headed toward the goal of a city for suffering childhood and a comfortable home for the aged within the fraternity. He communicated his enthusiasm to others. Aid 2,000 Orphans Aside from the influence of lodges in, the United States, Canada, England and Wales, and South Africa, with its army of members, Mooseheart, its child-city situated thirtyseven miles west of Chicago, and Moosehaven, its home for the aged near Jacksonville, Florida, testify to the labors of Davis and his associates. More than 2,000 orphans or dependent children of deceased Moose are being given the opportunity for a high school education.and a trade. And in Moosehaven elderly folk on whom life has frowned need not be separated in pitiless almshouses, but can go down into the sunset of life hand in hand.

DRILLS UNCHANGED Templars Will Retain Old Ritual at Detroit. By Times Special DETROIT, June 4.—Despite opposition to the thirty minute preparation before competitive drills by Knights Templar drill teams no change in the regulations will be made for the Triennial Conclave which will be held in this city July 15 to 19. Grand Master George W. Valiery holds that the rules, which were established by the grand encampment, will stand. Opponents to the short preparation period many more teams would enter competitions if they were given the schedule of drill at least thirty days before the time set for the lists. Those favoring the present regulations declare drill teams should be so versed in tactics that a brief rehearsal is all that is required. The drill work would become mechanical and lose its snap if teams knew a month in advance just what evolutions they would be required to perform. Several commanderies will give exhibition drills, and Englewood commandery of Chicago, will present a battalion drill.
