Four Assessments fur May.
Mr..S. M. Schultz, Financial Re-
porter of Insurance Lodge, No. 1169,
Knights of Honor, tells us that the
Supreme Secretary of the order has is-
sued forthe month of May four assess-
ments to meet the prompt payment of
death lusses to date. The past winter
showed am excessive death rate all over
the country. These four assessments
cover 199 deaths,and averaging the loss-
es at $2,000 will make $398,000 paid |
out in one month. To meet this the| 1
members, estimated at 120,000, will
pay $4 each, maxing $480.000, which
shows that the order is collecting during
the month about $82,000 more than
is needed to pay the losses. Many of
the members think such extra payment
of assessments is unnecessary.
$25.00 REWARD
Will be paid to the finder if package of
money lost Saturday eyening is re-
turned tothis office, and no questions
