A li E>V MEJHBEK’S FLEA!
As a new member of the Holbrook
Benevolent Association, I must say
that I know of no other association
that has interested me as much as
this order.
Having an opportunity to listen to
so many people commending this
» great association and noticing the fra
> ternal love that seems to exist among
J all of the H. B. A. members, I de
> cided to investigate it. I must say
£ that I was satisfied with the results
> and I joined this association through
| local lodge No. 253, with Mr. E. F.
\ Young, Jr., as my president.
| I was thrilled to learn of its laws
I that are so reverently kept by all of
r its members.
II want to urge all of the young girls
in the city and out of the city that
possess ambition, to join the H. B. A.,
not only for her own good, but to
prove that we have unity in our own
race as well as other races. We must
remember that, “A house divided a
} gainst itself cannot stand.”
f Much praise is due Rev. R. L.
It Young, General secretary, who launch
ed a successful drive in March and in
whigh 315 members were added. The
General secretary has decided to
launch another drive in connection
with the celebration of the 75th An
niversary of Rev. E. F. Young, Gen
eral President, to add one thousand
(1000) members by June.
I am interested in making the Gen
eral president happy on his birthday,
and as a new member, I am appealing
to you to help me make him happy
by joining the H. B. A. during this
drive.
By Miss Alma E. Sudberry
this week.
God be praised.
Yours to serve,
R. L. Young, Secretary
H. B. A. BOARDS A GLOWING
SUCCESS
Our H. B. A. Boards that came to
a final close last Thursday are now
history. All of the presidents tried
themselves. A big time was had at
each board. New members added,
plenty to eat, plenty of joy, peace and
happiness.
We are so enthused and wrapped
up at present in the 75th Anniversary
of the General President that we are
losing sight, to some extent, of the
big things that we have done and we
are looking forward in the next ninety
days to do bigger things, that, we will
do. Won’t you come and go with me
to that land where we are bound. We
are bound for 1000 members. Let’s
go, children. What say, you? Who
I can beat the H. B. A.’s doing things?
They are yet to be born who can beat
us.
$150.00 PAID IN BOARDS
We are happty to state to the faith
ful workers in the H. B. A. that we
have paid $150.00 to 28 claimants in
the March Boards. We hope to beat
that in June. Give us the members
and we will do it.

This comes to let the many readers
know that Lodge No. 384 has lost one
of its members in the person of Rev.
Junius Locket. Brother Locket was
a loyal member and is missed by all
that knew him.
wmmm
STATE LINE, MISS.
In rememberance of the late presi
dent of Lodge No. 355, in the person
of Brother Roy Smith who departed
this life on February 22, 1941.
Brother Smith is dead but his good
deeds and his true leadership yet
live, his voice is hushed, his foot
steps are still, he leaves a vacant
place in our hearts that never will b(
filled.
Brother Smith was a member o'.
Lodge No. 355 for 13 years, a n <
' served as president for 6 years.

friends of the H. B. A.:
Ipieas* permit me to express to you
my deep aiid sifieere appreciation for
the fine way that you are resonding to
the 75th Anniversary of my father,
Reverend E. F. Young.
I thought and believed that aii
fort o fthih kind would meet your
hearty approval, but I did not think
that I would have had so many replies
so soon, I see now that you mean to |
put the program over, We need new
members, new lodges, now presidents.
100 MEMBERS PER WEEK
It is going to take almost an aver
| age of 100 members per week to put
over this drive, but that is no big
thing for more than four thousand
members with approximately two hun
dred active local presidents. We can
do it and will do it. Watch the H. B. >
A. Themometer. It will let you know
what we are doing.
May I say to you that as we go
to press, we have 100 members for
ATTENTION!
