No Risk
in joining the LOYAL ORDER OF MOOSE OF THE WORLD on the
charter of Valdez Lodge No. 1427, because you can transfer to any other
lodge at any time, can take out a withdrawal card or a Supreme Lodge
card in case No. 1427 becomes defun ct. But as long as ten members
desire to retain the charter it cannot be forfeited. So once a Moose,
always a Moose. The Supreme Lodge, with a fat treasury, stands back
of every subordinate lodge, and in cases of fatal disasters or epidemics
extends unlimited relief the afflicted lodges immediately without the un
winding of any red tape or assessment of the membership. The minute
you take the oath of a Loyal Moose one million members stand ready to
protect the honor of your home, aid you In sickness and distress, give
your children a free vocational training and yourself and wife care in
old age. A correspondence course will soon be available to the member
ship and a period at each meeting devoted to study. Competent instruct
ors will visit each lodge frequently to better aid the Loyal Moose along
the paths of progress.
The Mooseheart governors are searching Arizona for the best avail
able site for a sanitarium, where all members stricken with the white
plague will be taken and cured. .And the cost of all this Is only $13.00
per year. You cannot afford to overlook the advantage of being one of
a million members in the LOYAL ORDER OF MOOSE OF THE WORLD,
an order that now ranks only second among beneficial fraternities, and
in less than two years will be the largest and greatest in the world.
“Get the password, get the rap;”
“Join the Moose and be a PAP!”
