No. 588. F. 0. E. hefl at Eagle's home in Mott avenue, Judge Thomas 0' Donnell at Kansas Stupid-1. Isl} night urged rumor tion of the “Old Age Pension Fund. ” a scheme which would abolish poorhouses and homes for the aged The old age pension plan. as Judge O'Donnell explained it, would provide a stated monthly pension for persons unable to support them- selves and who could prove that they were citizens. "Don't allow them to throw the old'inflrmed people — people who gave their best for the country—into a. poor-house, there to exist for the remainder of their days." said Judge O'Donnell. “Less than eight per cent. or money appropriated tor the upkeep of a. poorhouse ,actually reaches the inmates: the rest is con— sumed by salaries of ofi‘lciale, etc. Provided with enough money so that they could live with a. private family, the infirm and aged would certainly live a more comfortable lite." Judge O'Donnell also described the workings of the Eagles from the time it was organized in Seattle un- til the present time. Grand Aiglitor Behle 0!

The session opened with the singing of the “Star Spangled Banner" and closed' with the singing 01 “America." The session. officers of the lodge announced. «as the beginning or a. drive ‘ior members.

Thomas Benedict, the firm who originally owned the mill. was born in Norwalk February 25. 1725. He OWned the mill at the time or the Revolutionary war. and it was dur- ing‘thls' period that the British sol- diers. under General Tyron.
