directed that In the event of the death of any

which brings him In or about an establishment
where ammunition, firearms or explosives are
manufactured, stored or handled, or as a con
sequence thereof shall receive one-tenth of the
amount of tho beneficiary certificate Sick
benefits are waived absolutely by the member.
"This action will meet the objection that
haa ben urged against the present waivers, ylz.,
that the member waived absolutely all benefits
In the event of death resulting from sen-Ice, and
will place our order on a par with commercial
Insurance companies which aro offering a llko
Inducement.
"The action Is retroactive In that It- Includes
everv member who haa signed one of the pres
ent waivers. I trust that this liberal treatment
of prospective candidates will aid you ma
terially In making up the quota required of
you by the most excellent master artisan to
be tmpplted on or before December SI."

Ini? tho work of the Philadelphia guard, the
union drill team of the Woman's Benefit
Association of tho Muccabccs of this city.
The Warron Kvcnlng Times, ono of the
home papers of !reat Commander Miss
Nellie 11 Lountbury, who Is greatly loved
by tho membership In this city, has the fol
lowing to say, after giving Miss I.ounsbury
due credit for having placed Pennsylvania
in the lead of nil tho States in tict gain In
membership:
"Thirty-five guard teams from various sec
tions of tho United States participated in tho
mammoth parade und display drills, hut the
team that won the highest honors at the dedi
cation, that captured the city of Port Huron
and Its guests, was tho Lnlform Rank No. 1,
of Philadelphia, under the dlrectlun of Miss
Minnie K. Uurgln. commandant, and Mrs. Mary
Crouch, captain, both of Philadelphia. Their
uniforms white military suits, with bluo serge
capes, red satin lined were strikingly hand
some, and the Philadelphia guard was roundly
cheered along the entire line of inarch. As the
Port Huron Times-Herald said:
" 'The Philadelphia guard was In a clasa by
Itself, and scored the lilt of the evening
with an elaborate drill, such as.lt has pre
sented at one of the leading playhouses of
the Quaker City, but evidently performed with
more Infinite care because a labor of love.
Fancy formations were nulcklv made and as
nulckly shifted to more difficult ones, so that
the performance gave one the Idea of a motion
picture, save for murmurs and ripples and
storms of applause breaking from the crowd
from time to time. Ilut the Idea of a movie
was swept away when. In massed formation,
the members saluted the colors and a pretty
miss advanced from the ranks and aang the
"Star Spangled Wanner." At the close, both
officers were presented with handsome swords
and belts- a prl which they w0n for their
Htate ami the city of Thl adelphia. Every
m.snber of the association In the. Keystone
State shares In tills honor, brought to them
through the beautiful, thy magnificent, the abso
lutely perfect work of this distinguished drill
team, now known and recognized as the cham
pion guard liim In the United Htates. Penn
sylvania also ranked first among all the Htates
In net sain for member,, for 1017. snd was so
acknowledged at the dedication.' "
Both the members in this city and the good
people, of the city of Philadelphia can feel Justly
proud for the honor brought to them by the
hard and unselfish work of tbla band of women,
who now must work even harder to retain
their bon0,""?! , " that pari of the
funds which they had to barrow that they might
win these honors. They will now begin to drill
