SEPTEMBER I7. '908. . On Saturday, the 15th, the first delegates began to arrive, and from that time until Monday evening the cry ‘was “and still they come” until about 300 had aSSemhled at the Grand Trunk station, and were met by the committees appointed to see that :they were proyerly cared for and "conducted to the different ‘places ar- ‘ranged for their comfort. i On Sunday evening the «local Court Meaford, with visiting brethren to ,the number of over one hundred, :forlnedi in front of the 1. 0. 1“.

Tuesday, the. 18th at two o‘clock, sharp, ll. C. It. Bro. Alex. Cowan, of Barrie brought down the ‘CIJlblL'tlll of authority, the gaVel, and the lligh Court of Central Ontario was duly and legally opened for the. trainsâ€" action of business. First was I the reading and disposing of the lligh Chief Ranger's Report which was very explicit and dealt in dttail with the diliercnt items. I. O. F. HIGH COURT MEETING Nearly every Court of the 262 in the jurisdiction was represented. All the officers of the High Court were preSunt. From the report of the High (Chief Ranger. it appears there are 4506 Courts, and a membership on the 3lst of December last of two hundred and fifty-seven thousand. Central ‘Cntario has 18,000. while the whole province has 55,000. During" the year. the Order paid cum to the widows and orphans and disabled brethren $2,757,000 and the ac cumulated fund at the present time $i12,20,000. The growth of the |Or- deq as a whole has been quite satis- factory, 2942 applications having been received in Central Ontario. 151 have joined the Great Beyond and their beneficiaries reveived $168,665 in benefits. 115 members in Central Ontario reached the 70 year limit and are now receiving their *annuity ben- efit. The finances of the lligh Court are in good condition, but not as good as last year, owing to the High Standing Committee paying more out for bonuses in Mission Work to Imen-ers who assisted organizers in securing new members. Supreme Chief Ranger, Bro. Elliott ‘G. Stevenson is, we believe. well qualified to fill the !exalted- position he: now holds and the Order is safe while he is at its head. A lengthy address was tendered the mambers of the High Court by the Mayor. of the town which was well received. Take it altogether it was the best reception as dele'gates we have ever witnessed in our experi- ence. We were also presented with an ad- dress by the local Court which num- bers about 125 members in good standing. The High Court, headed by the town band marched to the public square when the High Chief Ranger laid the corner stone of the new town hall after which Bro. Cowan, H. C. R. was presented with a beautiful silver atrowel, suitably inscribed. An Open air. concert was then given to the delight of all present. On Wednesday morning at 9 o ’clock‘ business was resumed and after the Finance Committee was disposed of the report of the special committee dealing with re-adjustment of rates of the old members who joined the Order prior to 1889 was submitted Rev. Alexander McGillivray who fully explained the change made and why it had to be made. It was plainly shown that there was paid to the beneficiaries of old members $500,000 more than was paid in by the so- called old members for the year 1907. The election 01: officers being in or- den that part of the work was pro- ceeded with followed by ithe installa- lation after which the High Court at Central Ontario wu closed amid ringing cheers.
