The United Artisans is a Portland and
an Oregon order. It was established
over 25 years ago by Portland business
men, and has now over 5000 members in
this city and more than 15,000 in the
state. . Its foresight in preparing for a
Tainy" day exceeded that of any of the
fraternal life protective orders, and, as
a result It has Invested surplus funds
aggregating over 11,500,000.
The business home of the United Ar
tisans is the Artisans building, at Broad
way and Oak streets, formerly known as
the Beck building, and estimated by ap
praisers to be worth 3600,000. The home
to be started Sunday is a purely frater
nal venture, and Is not by any manner of
interpretation a business investment al
though Its affairs will be conducted in
accordance with business principles. The
Beck building purchase, however, is con
sidered a good business investment, and
its entire six stories are occupied as an
office building. "

ship and its upbuilding spirit Most of
