The annual meeting of the grand lodge of Odd Fellows, which was to have been held at Union May 9 and 10, has been annuled' by the leading officials, for good and sufficient rea rriailpri to the sOIlS. ?>ULiuea uaic ..? representatives-elect, grand lodge committeemen and other delegates, re questing them not to report at Union. The notice embodies a resolution adopted by the grand master, A. B. Langley; the deputy grand master, P. 5. Strickland; the grand secretary,' 3. F. Killingsworth; the grand treas-. urer, H. Endel; the grand chaplain,1 J. K. P. Neatherry, and a a*st grana master, C. L. Blease. "The resolution rings clear with patriotism ana sound economy, and will meet with popular approval," a leader in the order said yesterday. j There is no important business to come before the convention, other; than the regular reports of grand lodge officials and the orphans' home trustees, and as those reports are printed and distributed to the mem-| ber8hip, the members of the order will be in full possession of all the transactions of the grand lodge dur ing the last year. To carry out the mandate for the officers of the grand lodge, ten in number, to report at Union at the appointed time, organize and receive the various rep'orts. No elections will be held other than for those offices a1 .

To them it is a patriotic and strictly business proposition, and while they make sacrifices they are striving for the best interests of the order, which is a true example or Odd Fellowship. THe Odd FeiiOWS ?Jrpuau uurnc at Greenville Is the pet of the order and many sacrifices are made by the mem bers in order that they may con tribute to the support of the noble in stitution. Annuling the grand lodge me-eting transfers over $2,000 fr^m the social and frolicking side of tne lodge to the reserve resources of the grand lodge and subordinate lodg93 in this State. The Resolutions. We, the officers of the Grand Lodge of South Carolina, Independent Ord<>r of Odd Fellows, having convened in the city of Columbia on the 26th day of April, 1917, to discuss matters or vital importance to the Order; upon motion of Brother F. S. Strickland, D. G. M.f adopted the following pre amble and resolutions "Whereas, our State and natiou1 are' at present facing a very serious crisis in their history; and, whereas, none of us knows at what moment we may be called upon to perform patriotic service for either or both of them; and, whereas, from circum stances which have been unadvola able, the financial condition of our Grand Lodsre throughout" this luris ; diction is not as flourishing as all ! true Odd Fellows would wish it to be; and, whereas, we are confident that the members of the order throughout the jurisdiction will be i willing to make some personal sacri j fice for the benefit of the order as a wnoie, ana especially tor tne oene I fit of our Orphan Home; and where as. our constitution, article 3. sec tion 1, provides, "There shall be one , regular communication held in eacn year," and, whereas, said constitu tion, Article 3. section 4, reads as fol lows: "The grand Lodge cannot be opened ior tne transaction or dusi ness unless there are seven Past Grands present, four of whom shall be from different ledges;" therefore, it being necessary that a meeting shall be held; be it. Resolved, That the Grand Lodge officers, excepting the members or committees, uo assemble at Union, S. C., on the second Wednesday In May, j 1917, for the purpose of complying with the constitution, and for the election and installation of officers for the ensuing year, except Grana Warden, and for the selection of a place of next meeting; and that no j other business whatever be transact ed at said meeting, as we find thai there is no matter of pressing im portance now demanding the atten tion of the Grand Lodge. Resolved, 2. That all committee men and all subordinate lodges De notified of the passage of the above resolution, and tnat tney De request ed not to attend, by representation or otherwise, the said communication. Resolved, 3. That by so doing we are satisfied that much money will be saved to the Grand Lodge and to each of the subordinate lodges, ana especially to the little children in the Orphan Home who are demanding our care and protection.
