S'I’iLL ON THE HUNT ‘FOR

DOROTHY ARNOLD.

NEW YORK, April 22.- Detec

tives visited West Point yesterday and investigated the story told by Octave Charles Glennorls, a convict In a Rhode Island prison, that he aided ln the burial there of _a young woman resembling in description the missing Dorothy Amold, of .New York. Inspector Faurot, in charge of the detectives, who returned at a late hour last night, was reticent as to _the result of the trip. “We have furthered our investigation and are satisfied with the result," was all he would say.

From others lt was learned that

the ,inspector and the detectives after a talk with thc West Point authorities, went to a deserted house several miles Gam the town. It cor- responded with the description of a house which Glennoris gave to the Rhode Island ohicials and the detec- tives went at once to the cellar. They found that the concrete bottom 'in a.

duty, but the sacrifice they are making is the greatest that is possible on earth, there is none more brave or more noble than. "he who gives his life _for his friend." We are under an immense debt of gratitude to those boys who are ready and willing to lay down their lives in defense of the British freedom and Justice that has always been ours. We must use every edort to protect and assist the loved ones they leave behind, and to provide- as l’ar\a.s possible for their happiness and comfort.

in gathering together for n fitting

celebration of our Anniversary Day, we always look forward to the general suming up of our conditions. so as to ascertain the position of our Order and the prosperity we have enjoyed during`the past year. We are pleased to note, that notwithstanding the un- settled state of business in all spheres of life, our Order has had almost its usual amount of prosperity, and has been up to other years in furnishing relief to the unfortunate of its mem- bers who were in line for same. This is true of all the branches wherewith it midertakes to be of assistance i.o humanity. Its receipts have been up to expectation and the usual invest- ments made with li profitable dealing. The number of brothers applying for relief has not been excessive nor does the number show any marked ln- crease over other years. Generous provision has been made for widows, orphans, and the indigent members. The Homes erected and maintained for their benefit are in a. very satisfac- tory condltlon. and reflect much cre- dit on the Rebekah Branch, for their loving forethought and untiring de- votion to this part of the work. lt has been plainly evident for some time, that the success of the Homes is en- tirely due to the ability and manage- ment of the Rebekah Sisters. To care lor the widow and orphan and to be a protector to the fatherless is a work oi' the most noble character, and will elicit the best wishes of our Order in general as well as the general public.

Let us glance at some of the figures

relative to the strength of the Order, both as to its finances and member~ ship. The total receipts for the year 1915 were $18,850,250 of this amount $4,150,000 was paid out for the relief of 8,250 wldo'wed families and 142,011 brothers. The total amount of invest- ed funds is $68,284,512. The member- ship was 2.519.176 made up as follows. Subordinate Lodge members, 1,775,- 000; Rebekah Sisters 744,176. There were 18.179 Subordinate lodges, 3,604 Encampments, 9,740 Rebekah Lodges,

759 Cantons. There are ‘§4 Homes purchased at $3,490,215, va ned today at $5,291,776. The annual cost of maintenance is $845,652. The number of residents at present under care is 3.678. and the number admitted since date of opening is 7.803. In the More time Provinces the inemilership is about 17,000 marie up of 11,500 oroth ers and 5.500 sisters of the Rebekah Iiranch. This is a very fine showing and was brought about as a result of n great amount of work by t he officers as well as for the amount ci assist- occe by the mexnlscrs.

'i‘he principles of Friendslilp, Love,

and Truth have remained from the be- g.lnnll_1E, the corner stones. 'l‘l\ey have withstood the battering of adversity for the past 97 years, and have emerg- ed from the struggle as impraguahle, and have received the imprimatur of time. In Oddfellowship, the strength of those has been augmented by tho additional virtues of Faith, Hope. and Charity. which make a stro_'n¢~.tounds- tion for the structure of a fratemal society to rest upon. To perform what Oddfellowship claims to do for the in- terest ot humanity it is none too strong. Our claim is, to lead to the highest cultivation it is possible for

BELGIANS IN NEED OF INSTANT RELIEF.

Present conditions in Bekium are

vividly described by a member of the commission for relief in Belgium, who stutes,- ' v

“One cannot conceive of s whole na-

tion, outwardly so tranquil, living with so many superficial indications of their old prosperity, and yet all the time threatened by hunger. Every day it is truer that this population of 7,000,000 is absolutely dependent upon the commission for its sustenance. Do not let the wave of enthusiasm which has passed over Canada spend itself. Start another wave. Keep starting them. Belgium cannot shout to you in return. but she knows what you are doing. She is dependent, grlmly de- pendent, upon us in order to sustain life. lt is we in the Provinces of Bel- gium who really know how easily. how suddenly Belgium would meet starvation if the supplies from Canada and America ceased coming for even o short time.”

Thai. the commission is aware of lilo

fact that Belglnm's' supplies can hold out i`_or only a short while is evidenced by the chartering of new ships and the hnstening of cargoes oi’ food to Rotter- dam. ,
