RULES OF PROCEDURE
f>lay Be Made a Feature of an
Evening's Programme.
State Lecturer Lowell of New York
Submits a List of Parliamentary
Questions and Answers Which Grange
Members Will Find Instructive.
No meeting of tho grange can be
conducted .correctly without some
knowledge of parliamentary rules, and
as there is, wo believe, a very consid
erable lack of knowledge of such rules
and lu order that members may be
posted upon the more important parlia
mentary questions that arise without
having to talce the trouble to look them
up for themselves State Lecturer Low
ell of Kredonia, N. Y., .has prepared
the following parliamentary questions,
with their answers, which we suggest
cau be made an interesting feature for
an evening's programme. The lecturer
might assign these questions to mem
bers at a previous meeting or call
upon members without giving them
previous notice and ascertain how
many are capable of answering the
questions without consulting Cushing's
Manual or some other equally good
authority:
I. Is It 5,1 order to Jay an amend merit
on the table?
No; it is done sometimes to kill a ques
tion before the house, to get ■ oi.iu one to
j vote who thinks ho is setting rid of the
i amendment only. If you la an amend
j meat on iho table, tin? main question goes
with it.it is not good ] ..iliarnetilarv
form.
i*. May a member arise to a question of
privilege and speak on the question be
foro the house?
No.
5. How ma?*' times may one person
speak on a question and not i»e «- t of
order?
If lie moves the question, twice; if not. i
once.
j 4. When a question of privilege i- be
fore tho house and a motion is mr.de to !
take up the order of th< dav, what be- j
comes of the question of privilege?
It is lost.
6. When a person wishes to make re- ]
marks on a motion of his o vn should it
be done before or after statin# the mo
tion?
Always before.
G Can you tell whether the follow ire
questions are debatable or undeb.Uabh'
j or whether they require a majority or
two-third.; vote to be carried?
(a) Motion to close debate.
Requires a two-thirds vote, undebatable.
(b) Objection to tlie consideration of
question.
Requires a two-thirds vole, cannot !>e
amended, is undebatable.
(.c; Motion to limit debate.
Requires a two-thirds vote, is undebata- !
ble, can bo amended.
| nl) Motion to extend the limit of debate.
Requires a two-thirds vote, is undebata* I
ble, can he amended.
(e) Motion to take up the previous ques- }
tion. J
Requires a two-thirds vote, cannot be j
amended, is undebatable.
7. Can you tell what questions can bo
amended and what cannot?
There are nineteen questions which can- i
not be amended. Here are some of the j
ivost important ones: Motion to adjourn, j
amendment to an amendment, call tn or- !
dcr, lay on table, take from the table j
withdrawal of a motion, objection to the 1
consideration of a question.
3. How and when may a question bo re- j
considered ?
At the meeting when the motion was !
passed or the next following. Then • ;
must be one who voted on the prevailing :
side; requires a two-thirds \oie.
I'. Can all questions bo reconsidered?
No.
10. If an appeal is taken from the deci
sion of the chair and the vote is a tie,
what is the result? Why?
It is lost, be« au if ).;tlf the voters are !
with the chair he makes a majority.
11. Can a presiding oflleer vole after :
the votes have been counted?
In some eases by unanimous consent lie
can cast the deciding; vote.
12. Can you correctly dispose of an 1
amendment to an amendment?
First put the amendment to the amend- !
ir.ent. If carried, put the ai. mdmei as
amended; if carried, put the c riminal u i
tion as amended; if lost, put thequ« lions
as beginning always with the
amendments.
13. What is a point of order?
When a person is speaking and states
something wrong any one may arise an I i
say, "1 arise to a point of order." Th • ;
chairman shall say, "State the point of ;
older." The one rising shall then cit'
wherein the speaker has maa'e a wrong
statement, and if the chair sustain th
point of order the speaker shall sit d >v/
if it is not sustained and T no appeal is
taken, the speaker may continue.
J4. Question of privilege—when made?
It may be made when a speaker has the ,
floor. As soon as it is disposed ot the •
assembly resumes the consideration o: !
the question which was interrupted.
15. Objection to consideration of ques- ;
tion—-when made?
When a question comes up which any
one thinks should not be discussed he
may object to its consideration. Cannot
be amended, is undebatable, equires tv\ •
thirds vote, does not require a second
and is in order when another has the
floor.

No, it).
People generally read advertisements more than they did a few years ag-o.
: The reason is to be found in the advertisements themselves.
Advertisers are inorj careful than they ti ;ed to bj. They make the advertise
ments more readable. So:no of them even become, in a
vay, a department of the paper, and people look for them
every day with as much lest and pleasure as they turn to /T\,
any other feature.
'1 lus is true of many department stores all over _ .kl \
the country.
Iu many cities there is just one man who appro jj" 1 L j jj^~ s i (
ciates the value of such interest. ( I
lie breaks away from the old set style. He tells j ?
something interesting in his space every r-'S'JX
There are lots of interesting things in JCf Cbs • '
business. Look over the miscellany page of W—
any paper—look at its local news columns. %
and its telegraph news, for that matter, ffl i
and you'll see that tha majority of the i W%hr v
items are more or less closely r&lated to
some business fact.
Dress those facts up in a bccomir.j* .<r *.t , , , y r ..
r "Let the merchant come down ojf hit
rirb of words, and they will find readers, pedestal."
even though they be iu a " r.iere advertisement." Let the merchant come
down off his pedestal and talk in his
ads.
