FRIENDLY SOCIETIES.
fee^&J. - : '■?;': (So MEs'EiiTOB of the Herald.) vJ^.Sib,-— .While agreeing with you as to the jyiaso mentioned in yoar last issue being \~*~' important to Friendly Society members, •7"; I : consider the wisest course would have v" been to reserve comment or even mention ifjof the case until the appeal had been settled, the same might mislead many members |;lintp; allowing their arrears of contributions ■'/'.to exceed what their lodge rules allow, twelve or fourteen weeks' conS^tributions. Should the amount exceed fc.;thisv the; rules provide that the member |pi&airbe suspended from all benefits for I« four weeks after having paid sufficient to himself ;gqod on the books. Prom ijyyihefacb. that medical benefits commence Si'-with -. members immediately upon joining ?;S the lodge, and the surgeon's salary is «!'f; always 'paid, from the incidental or manji; .agement fond, I fail to see how ordinary can possibly be divided, as |$. considered^by His Worship Mr Hutchinwhen the lodge has already paid ilStocthe surgeon one quarter's salary on of that member.
