Please remember that the <strong>Supreme</strong> <strong>Council</strong> <strong>of</strong>fice cannot<br />

possibly know or guess to exactly what use material will be<br />

put, how many copies are needed, or how it will be distributed.<br />

A simple statement such as, “Please send me 25<br />

copies <strong>of</strong> the folder, (title)’’ will bring you what you want<br />

and as many as you need.<br />

Pamphlets, folders, booklets and releases should always<br />

be ordered by their full and correct titles and appropriate<br />

numbers. It takes little extra time for you to ascertain the<br />

correct title and number, and much time can be saved in<br />

getting the material to you when this information is supplied<br />

in all orders.<br />

Items will be shipped the least expensive way, unless<br />

requested otherwise, and charged to council. Shipping<br />

costs for all items, except membership recruitment supplies,<br />

will be billed to the council. All supply requisitions<br />

(#1) should be signed by the grand knight or financial secretary<br />

before they are submitted to the <strong>Supreme</strong> <strong>Council</strong><br />

Supply Department.<br />

All shipments into Canada are subject to GST. This applies<br />

to both cost <strong>of</strong> goods and shipping cost. This will be<br />

charged through normal billing procedures.<br />

PROPER PROTOCOL<br />

Protocol is basic common courtesy. Special rules have<br />

been established pertaining to proper conduct in handling<br />

certain situations. Where there is no specific rule governing<br />

a situation, you will not go wrong by employing common<br />

courtesy.<br />

A guest at your council should be treated with great<br />

respect. Anticipate and attend to the needs <strong>of</strong> your special<br />

guest and always show thanks and appreciation for their<br />

presence.<br />

INVITATIONS — Guests should be sent proper invitations in<br />

writing well in advance but at least six weeks before the<br />
