THERE’S A REASON
WHY THE MOOSE LODGES
ARE GROWING SO FAST
The Loyal Order ol Moose of the World was first organ
ized at Louisville, Kentucky, on April 12, 1888. For a short
time its membership was confined to the mother lodge, but
soon it began to spread. Today there are 2,000 lqdges with a
membership of more than cne million. The Moose are grow
ing faster than any other fraternal order. There is a reason.
The Moose pays its members a benefit of $10 per week when
misfortune overtakes them and they fall sick. The Moose
provides for the burial of its deceased members and cares for
their loved ones left behind. Their children are educated
and given a chance to win in the battle of life without handi
cap. The order provides for the declining days of Moose,
both men and women. The charter initiation fee is only $10
and dues $3.25 quarterly.
There is no better way to provide for the future of your
family than by becoming a member of the Moose. For fur- j
ther particulars see National Director J. Frederick Johnson.
