about the first of May Everyoneknows what busy months May and

commissions expired July 1st
Everything was new to our State of ¬
and it took a good while to jOUlhtLnot to be recommissioned Forreasons my state commission
not reach me until about the 1stSeptemberAn impression prevails that appli-
cants¬
must meet with some local un¬
on and his application be passedupon by the members before he canbe received This is a mistake thelocal organizer can take your mew ¬andeyou are a member at largeYou can afterward apply to the lo-
cal¬
union of your choice and be re-
ceived¬
without additional expenselocaleyou receive the paper and co¬
operate with all the thousands of fel¬
