H. THOMAS, Dint. Manager Beaverton Council, No. 2874, Se curity .Benefit Association, has been thoroughly revived since the coming of State Deputy H. W. Smith from Portland two weeks ago. A week ago last Wednesday night a class of 14 new members was added and last night Miss Oma Emmons, Frank G. Haulenheck and Algot E. Erickson learned the mysteries of the lodge.

The Home and Hospital are located m at Topeka, the headquarters of the Association. A large farm consist ing of 375 acres is located near the city of Topeka, on which has been built the, Home and Hospital for children of deceased members. They are given a home and education by the Association. A fund is being set apart from the general funds of the Order each month for the mainten ance of the Home and Hospital. Pro vision is also made for the care of aged members who may not have comfortable homes of their own, and desire to avail themselves of the con veniences of the Home and Hospital, in their declining years. Since the opening of the Home, over 100 or phan children and aged members have been admitted to its shelter. Each year, as occasion demands, new units will be added to the building, as it is the policy of the management that no worthy orphan or age member shall be deprived of the benefits pro vided by the Home The Association has a combined membership exceeding 256,000, and has paid to the beneficiaries of de . ceased members, over twenty mil lion dollars, and to disabled members over five million. It has 8500 local councils located in every state in the Unite! States except several of the extreme southern states when the mortality rate among the 'people is . such as to make it unadvisabie to organize. In Portia; nd there are six A" j ' Security .BuHling National Offices, Topeka, Kansas, owned by the Association. local councils composing a member ship of nearly four thousand. Two pf the largest councils boast of mem berships of over twenty-five hun dred. There are also over 600 juve niles. The Order admits men and women on the same terms and has one of the most beautiful ritualistic ceremonies of any similar association. The accompanying picure illustrates the headquarters of the Order. A hotel and bank building is also own ad by the association in Topeka, Kansas. Mr. Smith Is occupying a room at the home of O. V. Hili and will be pleased to explain the several fea tures of the various policies, as well as the juvenile policy, which insures children from one to sixteen years of age at a cost of 20 cents per month and pays benefits ranging from (46 at the start up to $600.
