BULLETIN No. 5.— Supplement. 



It is with great pleasure that we are able to publish this Bulletin, 

 reporting the results of the investigations by the committee under Mr. F. 

 L. Burns. Any comments upon the merits of the report would be super- 

 fluous here. It speaks for itself. 



An amendment has been properly presented to Article XV. of the 

 Constitution, which proposes to relieve the Secretary of the handling of 

 dues and assessments, and puts this duty into the hands of the Treasurer. 

 Adverse votes upon the amendment must be sent to the Secretary, Mr. J. 

 E. Dickinson, Rockford, 111., before April loth. Ballots favoring the 

 amendment are unnecessary. 



The following new names have been proposed as candidates for active 

 membership : T. B. TuUock, Rockford, 111. and Mrs. Agnes Chase, 

 Chicago, 111. Adverse votes should be sent to the Secretary. 



The Treasurer's report in this Bulletin shows a healthy condition of 

 our finances. The early resignation of the former Secretary, makes a 

 report of that officer impossible. 



R. M. Strong, President.
