Have a Good Time at the Meetings.

Did you enjoy yourself at the last meeting? If not, you are to blame. It don’t matter what little malice you may entertain against certain members, when outside the Grange, you have no right to let your feelings influence you to the extent of not doing your full duty when within the gates. One of. your prime duties is to keep up to the highest standard of the social features of your meetings. You cannot do your duty in this regard unless you yourself go away from the meeting feeling really happier and better than you felt when you went there. Your effort to make others happy* will render yourself happy, Unless you feel happy you have failed to make others happy, and failed to that extent in your duty as a good Patron. Go in for fun as well as for business. He who owns the whole world and cannot find time to laugh is a poor —American Patron.
