Organizing a Nest ef OwlsJ !
J. E. Hill, assisted by D. W. Kesler,
Is spending several days In Ityrth
Platto organizing a nest of Owls, n
modern fraternal order of world-wide
prominence which during the past few
years, becausu of its many excellent
features, has been attaining n phenom
enal growth. Mr. Hill Is meeting with
grntl tying success hero .and will soon
have a nourishing lodge established.
Owl lodges have been instituted in nil
the leading towns and cities of tho
United States bh well as in mariy for
eign countries. To show the growth of
this splendid order It is only necessary
to state that soventy-flve ncstW woro
Instituted during the month of April,
At Atlanta, Gn., tho nast was Instituted
with 0 chartor membership of'J,t)fl8,
making a world's record.
In audition" to tho mnny bonofita it
providos members. It Is seeking nt this
lime to establish three splendid benevo
lent Institutions, ono to be a homo for
tho orphans of deceased members,
whore they will bo provided for nnd
educated until they nro of an ago en
abling them to care for themselves.
Another homo will bo created for aged
and infirm members, where they may
spend their declining years in comfort.
A third Institution will bo a genoral
hospital for members, planned on tho
most modern and scientific basis, where
tho best of medical and surgical treat
ment will bo extended and tho most
difficult of casus given attention.
A striklrig feature about tho Owls Is
that each local nest has almost entire
authority in the conduct of its nflairs.
It possesses tho greatest posslblo do-
?rco of homo rule, among other things
or instnnco, establishing tho ago nt
which members may be roccivod or
rejected. It is comparatively freo from
Interference of Bupromo officers or other
nests. All members who become
officers, do so, with tho understanding
that thoy shall recelvo no financial
reward.
Tho order of Owls is a four-degree
secret society of pood fellows who be
lieve In lovo and laughter nnd tho
"Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. It
does not believe In postponing end's, on
joymont until nftor doath. It teaches
and distributes good cheer now. It
considers It Its duty and pleasuro to caro
for tho needy and suffering. It pays $7
per week In caso of sickness or accident
and $100 in caso of doath. It possesses
as beautiful ritual but no rellgjous
observance.
Therd is nothing to offend the roll
glon or Irreligion of any man. Jly
