IB UUlUg UOIU 1U t UIWUUU. UtUCHUUIS certificates w ere not issued for gams less tbau f 1000. The certificates to bo issued to the now members after thut date will be only accordnigto the specification s of the levol rate plan that was agreed upon at the special sjhhIou last year. The action, how ever, will not affeot old policies now in force. The departure of the iusurauoe de partment of the order in loweriug the amounts of the policies was incorpor ated in a law that was adopted by the graud lodge. With reference to the official paper of the order the matter was referred to the trustees with instructions to re new the contract with the publisher at the samo rate that has prevailed. Another feature of the session was the uoaforriug of the degree of Past Grand Master upon D. David Walk er of Portlund. The elootiou of officers of the De gree of Honor, which wa to have been a special order at Wednesday morning's session was postponed till late in the afternoon. Mrs. Hattie E. McOormlo of Marshfleld, grand lady of honor, was slated to be pro moted to the position of grand chief of honor, ucoording to the custom of the order. "'At' the' morning session, Supreme Muster William Marvis of, Iowa and Past Grand Masters Werleiu, Durham and Smith of the gra-id lodge of the A. O. U. W. were introduced and ad dressed the women. The supremo master made an eloquent and com plimentary speech in appreciation of the high standard of work being done by the Dorgeo of Honor of Oregon and throughout the superior jurisdiction, liospouse was made by Past Grand Chief ot Houor Margaret Herri n, who said she had been a member for ten years aud her faith in the order has never faltered. "Whoever expresses a thought," she said, "that relieves distress or makes others happier or better has dune a mighty deed. When John Upchurch expressed the thought of fraternal pro tection he planted a seed from which spi'uug not a feeble plant, but uiauy foro.it giuuts whion have sproud their shades over the whole world. Not withstanding the troubled wators, the grout ship of our truteruity is passing through the order cannot fail, for it was born of God-given inspiration to render help to a fellow being in siokness, sorrow aud distress."
