C. EDGERLY, Local Secretary. the On1 the night of November 4th, Toronto Council held a public meeting in the United Brethern church, w'-ilch meeting wr.s addressed by t.he Supreme President. Toronto is a good, little city of about a thousand inhabitants. The people are very hospitable and wide awake.

The Supreme President is loud in his praises for Toronto. He was particularly pleased while there to meet Brother Will Moore, formerly of Uniontown, Kansas and a member of Union Council, and his good wife who has made application to become a member of Toronto Council. Also Brother Whitesides and wife, formerly of Redfield, Kansas. Since the new and healthful growth has started in Toronto it will be kept up. On November 2nd, the Supreme President addressed a public meeting at Pleasanton, Kansas.

Pleasanton has had a small council for a great number of years. Brother and Sister Kniveton have held the position of President and Secretary, and they have kept together their organization. Sister Fanny Hogan working in Pleasanton and of course that means results. Pleasanton is a beautiful city of 3,000, located in' the eastern part of Linn county, 25 miles north of Fort Scott on the main line of the Frisco. It should and will have, before our next Supreme Council meeting, a membership of 150.

Ther are a great many young men and women in and around Pleasanton who carry no insurance, and of course they will be interested in this safe and sane proposition offered by the T. T. B. A. Brother and Sister E.

Griffin have temporarily closed their work in Rich Hill and will go to Eldorado Springs for two or three weeks work. Brother Griffin is one of the most capable field workers in the employ of any insurance company. He writes only the best and they are lasting members. Speaking of Rich Hill, our venerable Past President A. L.

Woodford confidentially told our President that the Rich Hill crowd was the best looking and most enthusiastic bunch of people that it had ever been his pleasure to meet. The President very unthoughtedly told this to some of the old members, in one of the first councils that Brother Woodford established, and they said he made the very same remark about them. Brother Woodford was entirely consistent, their council was the best at that time. Brother O. M.

West, of Kansas City, Kansas, is still getting members. Brother West says that he is interested in the Triple Tie for three reasons. First, because our plan is safe; second, because he wants his friends to carry insurance; and third, for his great love and affection for the Supreme Secretary and President. You should know Brother West. He is the kind of man that Julius Caesar had in mind when he said, "Let me have about me men who are fat, sleek headed men and such as sleeps o'nights." Dr.

W. W. Adams, of Kansas City, Missouri, and Prof. Charles Vickrey, of Lawrence, Kansas, are going to devote a little time to the Kansas City, Missouri situation. As you all know Brother Adams is a power in the fraternal field.

He is a bunch of enthusiasm and when he breaks loose there is something doing. The Triple Tie can be congratulated upon securing the services of Professor Vickrey. Mr. Vickrey is a clean, PRICE LIST OF SUPPLIES.

It may not appear again for a long time had a very gratifying growth and at our last meeting we received six petitions and more are expected to come each meeting night. The Council is preparing a series of entertainments to be given through the winter months, so it looks as the council will have a pleasant time during the next few months. Pres. Griffith's visit has given us a new start this fall, which should be followed by the other councils. Yours in L.

F. L. L. F. VALENTINE, Pres.

Council No. 2. On the Road and In the Field With the Deputies. Brother William Barrack of Nevada, Missouri, has been with the Triple Tie for a good many years, and has. been responsible for securing many a member for our association.

He has been the means of causing many a man and woman to become provident, and provide against the evil day to come. Pie has been working in Walnut, Kansas for the last three weeks and in that length of time secured an organization with a charter list of 35, and on the 9th day of November, 1910 a new council was established in Walnut, known as Walnut Council, No. 150. This is the third entirely new council organized since the Supreme Council meeting. Brother Barrack has succeeded in securing the very best young people in and around Walnut, and the average age of the membership of this new council is about 29.

The following are the officers: Past President, R. G. Oloke. President, eJssie B. Brown.

Vice-President, Ethel Lancastre. Secretary, Boyer Frantz. Chaplain, Mrs. Boyer Frantz. Conductor, Hazel Babcock.

Treasurer, R. E. Selby. Trustees, W. R.

Lancaster, Br. Stafford, R. S. Brown. Brother Barrack will remain in Walnut for the next two or three weeks and expects to build the membership up to 100.

He is an old head at the business and when he makes up his mind to do a thing he usually succeeds. Chanute, Kansas, is one of the beautiful, progressive and substantial towns in South Eastern Kansas. Since the beginning there has been a council in Chanute. The membership is composed of some of the most influential and the very best citizens of Chanute. On election night Chanute council had a meeting.

There was a literary program carried out, composed of recitations, instrumental music and an address by the Supreme President, then a dainty spread, after which the council opened in regular form and transacted its business. There were five applications for membership. Chanute is fortunate in having with them Colonel Dan Palmer, of K. and under his management Chanute will treble its growth in the next sixty days. Dr.

Jesse Barker well remembered by those who attended the Clay Center and the Coffeyville Supreme meetings, lives in Chanute. "Dr. Barker is one of the energetic, young, professional men of his city. He will lend his enthusiasm and influence to Colonel Dan Palmer, and with the enthusiastic support promised by the local membership, Chanute Council will cause the rest of the jurisdiction to set up and take notice. About three weeks ago Sister Mabel Colaw, our Supreme Chaplain, arrived In Toronto, Kansas.

In a very short time there were applications beginning to make their appearance in the Supreme Medical and Secretary's office. In two weeks time Sister Colaw succeeded in writing 20 people, and that 20 young people. Brother C. A. Matthews, the bright eyed, young man, who with William O'Haro of Chanute, asked sensible questions of the law committee of the last Supreme Council meeting, is the secretary, and Brother A.

C. Cooper Mr. Marion Webb, Supreme Secretary, Clay Center, Kans. Dear Brother: Monday evening, October 17th, Clay Center Council No. 2, after some weeks of preparation, held its first open meeting for the season, having as its guest of honor, Supreme President Chas.

Griffith of Ft. Scott. Invitations were sent out to all the members of the council and to a large number of others, so that before eight o'clock the guests began arriving and a short time after that hour the hall was filled to overflowing with friends of the order. The early part of the evening was spent in general conversation following which the program was given. The Rev.

Mr. Head of the Episcopal church of Clay Center sang two songs and our Supreme President, Mr. Griffith, gave us his lecture on Fraternalism. This was the finest lecture on fraternalism and brotherly-love the writer ever listened to. Mr.

Griffith is an exceptionally eloquent talker. On this subject he is an enthusiast. How. one could listen to his talk and not be impressed with the spirit of the idea and 1 fall in line with the great many over 1 this country who are members of fraternal insurance is impossible to comprehend. Mr.

Griffith showed how large a part fraternalism plays in the works of the world, how necessary fraternal insurance is to the general run of men and how superior the Triple Tie is to other insurance orders in a very convincing way. Every Council should secure Mr. Griffith for a lecture as quickly as possible. Since he was here many of our Brethren have spoken to me about the fine talk and asked me when they would have the pleasure of listening to him again. As a close to the evening, light refreshments were served and then games played until a late hour.

Clay Center Council has had rather a prosperous year. Last spring we.
