PAMPHLET ON ODD FELLOWSHIP.
On January 1, 1913, in compliance with legislation passed by the
last session of the Grand Lodge, I appointed John H. Sikes, Grand
Secretary; James Ewing Davis, Grand Representative; and H. M.
Blood, Chief of Examiners and Instructors, as a special committee to
prepare a pamphlet on Odd Fellowship for general distribution among
the fraternity in Illinois. Fifty thousand of the following pamphlets
prepared by this committee have been printed and distributed through-
out the State. Many incidents of special good resulting from this
pamphlet can be related by those who have had charge of its distri-
bution.
The pamphlet, as printed below, was interspersed with reduced
pictures that appear in the Picture Book of Our Homes and are
omitted here.

DO SOMETHING.
"Do something for somebody, somewhere.
While jogging along life's road,
Help somebody to carry his burden
And lighter will grow your load.
