FRATERNITY
The Semi-Annual election of
officers for the ensuing t erm in
the Arctic Brotherhoo 1 next
Monday evening brings it very
forcibly to our minds what a
spirit of Fraternity has been
shown by the members in the
past six months in all mitters
connected with man’s welfare
not only in their own affairs
but in others.
The Farewell parties given by
thorn to the boys who were
drafted from this section were
certainly appreciated, and last
but not least, the co-operatian
of the ladies who are always
ready to assist in their Enter
tainments, for which the Arctic
Brotherhood is truly grateful.
This is a small Lodge, but it
deserves all the support that the
members and non-menbers can
give to the new Officers who
are to be elected next week.
