Hopkins Complimented
By Georgia Odd
Eellows.
In a recent issue of the Geor
gia Odd Fellow, under the head
of; “What the Right Kind of
Work will Accomplish,’’ was the
following:
Douglasville Lodge No. 1G2
has witl in the past three months
reinstated more than FIFTY
memcers. This splendid result
is largely due to the efforts of
their efficient, wide-aw ke Sec
retary, Dmther E. L. Hopkins.
TR6 value of a man like this to a
lodge and to a community is in
estimable. Common sense and
energy, reinforced with the prin
ciples of our Order, make a well
nigh irresistible force. This is
what Brother Hopkins uses in
his work. He sent us a few days
ago a list of sixteen subscribers
for The Georgia Odd Feilow.
