I.O.O.F, AT CAVEN CHURCH (Continued From Page One) the limit of their acocmplishment. Lodge members are united to each other by the ties of brotherhood, but' they are united to each other against the rest of the world. Brother will do much for brother, help him in his difficulties but none of this 'benevo­ lence is shown to such as have not the password. The speaker would not say how jusf were such criticisms, or whether it applies more to certain orders than to others, but he did say that it aught not to apply to any, And it would not apply if in addition to the lesson that David and Jonathan teach is added the lesson that is of­ fered in the parable of the Good Samaritan. Then the members of the lodge will not be content to simply help each other hut will feel impelled to take an interest in the welfare of those who have never been initiated in the lodge room, and to support and connect themselves with all movements that seek to amelior­ ate the conditions which make life hard for so many people. A worthy lodge is a lodge that lives up to the light of Christian revelation and which stands for the highest stan­ dards of Christian morality. On the return of the brethren to the lodge room a vote of thanks was tendered the .minister for his very excellent sermon and to the man­ agers of the church and the choir.
