Columbia and Montour counties will
soon be united in yearly conventions.

membership of 399, with a $12,000 ,

The committee on credentials re- ;
ported the following camps represent
ed : Bloomsburg, 319; Catawissa,
540 ; lola, 635 ; Millville, 336 ; Ber- ;

and Beaver Valley camps were not

On motion of I. H. Seesholtz it '
was decided to hold another joint 1
convention on Feb. 22, 1899, and 1
that date be fixed as the regular meet- ;
jng of such joint conventions. The 1
vote was 27 to 3. Bloomsburg was
selected as the place of holding the '
next convention.
At the suggestion of President
Kurtz an advisory committee of five
was appointed to take into considera- 1
tion all matters looking to the best
interests of the order in the county, ;
and advising when required. The
committee is as follows : H. A.
Myers, 635 ; H. V. Hower, 684;
U. Myers, 540 : G. T. Morehead,
105 ; H. H. Brown, 17.
Camp 672, Elk Grove, was report
ed in a peculiar position. The popu
lation there is transient, being chiefly
employees in the lumber enterprises
in that neighborhood, the membership
of the camp is mostly of the same
class, and while there are members
enough in good standing, plenty of
money in the treasury, a full outfii of
paraphernalia hnd candidates ready,
they cannot get enough of the mem
bers there at one time to hold sessions,
elect and initiate members. The
cases of Espy and Elk Grove camps
were referred to the advisory commit
tee for action. Vice Presidents to be
ex-officio members of the advisory
committee.
On motion of J. W. Perry the right
hand of fellowship was extended to
Brother W. C. Sholes, Berwick, with
the wish that he experience a speedy
recovery from his illness. Mr. Sholes
is the lather of the county convention
idea.
The committee on resolutions pre
sented their report, which with some
amendments was adopted. The reso
lutions are as follows :
