The Supreme Council, Knights and

have issued orders notifying all mem

bers who joined the order prior to

July, 1S94, would have the rate on

their insurance policies raised the order going into effect on and after

August 1, 1906. The order effected nearly every member, fifty in num

ber, in the local Council in Lowell

A number of the policy holders were

raised to double the rate they had

been paying and feel in a very fren

zied state of mind over the new order

of things and expressed themselves

in no mild way in fact there was a real tempest in the tea-pot. Sister Phena Brown really stamped her

foot. On Saturday night a special

meeting was called to discuss ways

and means as to what was best to

do or not to do. About forty re

sponded. Mr. Roberts, one of the supreme officers was present. He gave a short talk which seemed to

sooth the wounded feelings of the

members. About two years ago the

rate was raised on all new members,

and it was thought the old ones

could be carried without the raise,

but actuarrics showed very plainly

that these old members could not be

carried at the low rate and create a

fund for the future when the mortu

ary record would naturally increase

All other fraternal insurance companies have raised or are going to. They are obliged to. Mr. Roberts

proved some facts along fraternal insurance, and since his talk to the members, a great many of them have

concluded that they are getting a

very cheap rate of insurance and

that the Knights and Ladies of Co

lumbia, is a very reliable company. A

few may withdraw their policies, but

the great majority will stay.

Why Thunder Sours Mlllr

milk in a thunderstorm is a mysterious
