MEMORIAL DAY SERVICES

About five years ago Brother Charles Bailey asked the Department Council to have a group of Chevaliers and Ladies make up an Honor Guard to help with the Memorial Day Services at the Odd Felshylow Cemetery in Tamaqua

Since that day this has become a yearly affair for the Dept Council Each year we ask for volunteers to participate in this service - all YOll need is a class A or B uniform to take part For the last three years after we are finished with this sershyvice the Chevaliers amp Ladies travel from Tamaqua to Dauberville to Bellemans Church and form an Honor Guard to do a service at the old cemetery then march to the new cemetery and do another sershyvice

At the service in the new cemetery we have the Noble G rands of Leesport 141 amp Lady Colfax 182 place Odd Fellow and Rebekah flags in honor of departed Brothers and Sisters This year Mother Nature was not cooperating with us so the service in Tamaqua was held in the Leshygion Home and the same was true at Bellemans Church

Noble G rand Laudine Stamm from Lady Colfax Rebekah 182 and Noble Grand Gerald Yerger from Leesport Lodge 141 placed Odd Fellow amp Rebekah flags at the memorial at Bellemans Church

The following Chevaliers and Lady took part in the programs - Lady Myra Fay Adams PDA Maj Gen reg Maynard] Ernst PDC Brig Gen Nevin W Adams DC Col Leon S Stamm VPDC Col Donald T rulick CS Col reg Arthur Moyer Col Harold Re iss EO Chev Donald Serfass

We thank all the Brothers amp Sisters that braved the weather and came out to support us and a very special thanks to the Chevaliers amp Ladies in uniform for help shying again this year

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Finish each day and be done with it You have done what you could some blunders and absurdities have crept in forget them as soon as you can T omorshyrow is a new day you shall begin it seshyrenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense Ralph Waldo Emerson

Delaware County Times Tuesday March 25 2003

Jo Ann Merkle Savage 16 daughter of Mr and Mrs Thomas Savage 411 Elmwood Ave Glenolden won an essay contest sponsored by Odd Fellows and Rebekah Association Her essay was entitled Why I Should Like toSee the United Nations in Action As a prize she gets a free trip to the UN this summer

I would ilike to take this opportunity to thank the Odd Fellow and Rebekah organizations for the scholarship of$500 I would also like to thank the selection committee from the Education Fund for choosing me This money will help tremendously with expenses during my second year of college especially with the cost of books

I would also like to thank Odd Fellow Lodge 699 and Rebekah Lodge 74 for their support they have shown to my family and me in my journey to further my education

It is wonderful that there are organizations like the Odd Fellows and Rebekahs that are willing to reach out and help people in need This scholarship money (only one of the ways that Odd FellowsRebekahs give help) means a lot to students who have to count every penny to meet college expenses

Once again my thanks to all concerned

Sincerely Scott D Lees

MY CUP HAS OVERFLOWED Ive never made a fortune and its probably too late now But I dont worry about that much Im happy anyhow

And as I go along lifes way Im reaping better than I sowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

Havent got a lot of riches and sometimes the goings tough But Ive got loving ones all around me and that makes me rich enough

I thank God for his blessings and the mercies Hes bestowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

I remember times when things went wrong My faith wore somewhat thin But all at once the dark clouds broke and the sun peeped through again

So Lord help me not to grips about the tough rows I have hoed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cups has overflowed

If God gives me strength and courage When the way grows steep and rough Ill not ask for other blessings Im already blessed enough

And may I never be too busy to help others bear their loads Then Ill keep drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed Author unknown

MEMORIAL DAY SERVICES

About five years ago Brother Charles Bailey asked the Department Council to have a group of Chevaliers and Ladies make up an Honor Guard to help with the Memorial Day Services at the Odd Felshylow Cemetery in Tamaqua

Since that day this has become a yearly affair for the Dept Council Each year we ask for volunteers to participate in this service - all YOll need is a class A or B uniform to take part For the last three years after we are finished with this sershyvice the Chevaliers amp Ladies travel from Tamaqua to Dauberville to Bellemans Church and form an Honor Guard to do a service at the old cemetery then march to the new cemetery and do another sershyvice

At the service in the new cemetery we have the Noble G rands of Leesport 141 amp Lady Colfax 182 place Odd Fellow and Rebekah flags in honor of departed Brothers and Sisters This year Mother Nature was not cooperating with us so the service in Tamaqua was held in the Leshygion Home and the same was true at Bellemans Church

Noble G rand Laudine Stamm from Lady Colfax Rebekah 182 and Noble Grand Gerald Yerger from Leesport Lodge 141 placed Odd Fellow amp Rebekah flags at the memorial at Bellemans Church

The following Chevaliers and Lady took part in the programs - Lady Myra Fay Adams PDA Maj Gen reg Maynard] Ernst PDC Brig Gen Nevin W Adams DC Col Leon S Stamm VPDC Col Donald T rulick CS Col reg Arthur Moyer Col Harold Re iss EO Chev Donald Serfass

We thank all the Brothers amp Sisters that braved the weather and came out to support us and a very special thanks to the Chevaliers amp Ladies in uniform for help shying again this year

Jo Ann Merkle Savage 16 daughter of Mr and Mrs Thomas Savage 411 Elmwood Ave Glenolden won an essay contest sponsored by Odd Fellows and Rebekah Association Her essay was entitled Why I Should Like toSee the United Nations in Action As a prize she gets a free trip to the UN this summer

I would ilike to take this opportunity to thank the Odd Fellow and Rebekah organizations for the scholarship of$500 I would also like to thank the selection committee from the Education Fund for choosing me This money will help tremendously with expenses during my second year of college especially with the cost of books

I would also like to thank Odd Fellow Lodge 699 and Rebekah Lodge 74 for their support they have shown to my family and me in my journey to further my education

It is wonderful that there are organizations like the Odd Fellows and Rebekahs that are willing to reach out and help people in need This scholarship money (only one of the ways that Odd FellowsRebekahs give help) means a lot to students who have to count every penny to meet college expenses

Once again my thanks to all concerned

Sincerely Scott D Lees

8 THE PENNSYLVANIA ODD FELLOW August 2003

MY CUP HAS OVERFLOWED Ive never made a fortune and its probably too late now But I dont worry about that much Im happy anyhow

And as I go along lifes way Im reaping better than I sowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

Havent got a lot of riches and sometimes the goings tough But Ive got loving ones all around me and that makes me rich enough

I thank God for his blessings and the mercies Hes bestowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

I remember times when things went wrong My faith wore somewhat thin But all at once the dark clouds broke and the sun peeped through again

So Lord help me not to grips about the tough rows I have hoed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cups has overflowed

If God gives me strength and courage When the way grows steep and rough Ill not ask for other blessings Im already blessed enough

And may I never be too busy to help others bear their loads Then Ill keep drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed Author unknown

MEMORIAL DAY SERVICES

About five years ago Brother Charles Bailey asked the Department Council to have a group of Chevaliers and Ladies make up an Honor Guard to help with the Memorial Day Services at the Odd Felshylow Cemetery in Tamaqua

Since that day this has become a yearly affair for the Dept Council Each year we ask for volunteers to participate in this service - all YOll need is a class A or B uniform to take part For the last three years after we are finished with this sershyvice the Chevaliers amp Ladies travel from Tamaqua to Dauberville to Bellemans Church and form an Honor Guard to do a service at the old cemetery then march to the new cemetery and do another sershyvice

At the service in the new cemetery we have the Noble G rands of Leesport 141 amp Lady Colfax 182 place Odd Fellow and Rebekah flags in honor of departed Brothers and Sisters This year Mother Nature was not cooperating with us so the service in Tamaqua was held in the Leshygion Home and the same was true at Bellemans Church

Noble G rand Laudine Stamm from Lady Colfax Rebekah 182 and Noble Grand Gerald Yerger from Leesport Lodge 141 placed Odd Fellow amp Rebekah flags at the memorial at Bellemans Church

The following Chevaliers and Lady took part in the programs - Lady Myra Fay Adams PDA Maj Gen reg Maynard] Ernst PDC Brig Gen Nevin W Adams DC Col Leon S Stamm VPDC Col Donald T rulick CS Col reg Arthur Moyer Col Harold Re iss EO Chev Donald Serfass

We thank all the Brothers amp Sisters that braved the weather and came out to support us and a very special thanks to the Chevaliers amp Ladies in uniform for help shying again this year

Jo Ann Merkle Savage 16 daughter of Mr and Mrs Thomas Savage 411 Elmwood Ave Glenolden won an essay contest sponsored by Odd Fellows and Rebekah Association Her essay was entitled Why I Should Like toSee the United Nations in Action As a prize she gets a free trip to the UN this summer

I would ilike to take this opportunity to thank the Odd Fellow and Rebekah organizations for the scholarship of$500 I would also like to thank the selection committee from the Education Fund for choosing me This money will help tremendously with expenses during my second year of college especially with the cost of books

I would also like to thank Odd Fellow Lodge 699 and Rebekah Lodge 74 for their support they have shown to my family and me in my journey to further my education

It is wonderful that there are organizations like the Odd Fellows and Rebekahs that are willing to reach out and help people in need This scholarship money (only one of the ways that Odd FellowsRebekahs give help) means a lot to students who have to count every penny to meet college expenses

Once again my thanks to all concerned

Sincerely Scott D Lees

MY CUP HAS OVERFLOWED Ive never made a fortune and its probably too late now But I dont worry about that much Im happy anyhow

And as I go along lifes way Im reaping better than I sowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

Havent got a lot of riches and sometimes the goings tough But Ive got loving ones all around me and that makes me rich enough

I thank God for his blessings and the mercies Hes bestowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

I remember times when things went wrong My faith wore somewhat thin But all at once the dark clouds broke and the sun peeped through again

So Lord help me not to grips about the tough rows I have hoed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cups has overflowed

If God gives me strength and courage When the way grows steep and rough Ill not ask for other blessings Im already blessed enough

And may I never be too busy to help others bear their loads Then Ill keep drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed Author unknown

Jo Ann Merkle Savage 16 daughter of Mr and Mrs Thomas Savage 411 Elmwood Ave Glenolden won an essay contest sponsored by Odd Fellows and Rebekah Association Her essay was entitled Why I Should Like toSee the United Nations in Action As a prize she gets a free trip to the UN this summer

I would ilike to take this opportunity to thank the Odd Fellow and Rebekah organizations for the scholarship of$500 I would also like to thank the selection committee from the Education Fund for choosing me This money will help tremendously with expenses during my second year of college especially with the cost of books

I would also like to thank Odd Fellow Lodge 699 and Rebekah Lodge 74 for their support they have shown to my family and me in my journey to further my education

It is wonderful that there are organizations like the Odd Fellows and Rebekahs that are willing to reach out and help people in need This scholarship money (only one of the ways that Odd FellowsRebekahs give help) means a lot to students who have to count every penny to meet college expenses

Once again my thanks to all concerned

Sincerely Scott D Lees

8 THE PENNSYLVANIA ODD FELLOW August 2003

MY CUP HAS OVERFLOWED Ive never made a fortune and its probably too late now But I dont worry about that much Im happy anyhow

And as I go along lifes way Im reaping better than I sowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

Havent got a lot of riches and sometimes the goings tough But Ive got loving ones all around me and that makes me rich enough

I thank God for his blessings and the mercies Hes bestowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

I remember times when things went wrong My faith wore somewhat thin But all at once the dark clouds broke and the sun peeped through again

So Lord help me not to grips about the tough rows I have hoed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cups has overflowed

If God gives me strength and courage When the way grows steep and rough Ill not ask for other blessings Im already blessed enough

And may I never be too busy to help others bear their loads Then Ill keep drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed Author unknown

Jo Ann Merkle Savage 16 daughter of Mr and Mrs Thomas Savage 411 Elmwood Ave Glenolden won an essay contest sponsored by Odd Fellows and Rebekah Association Her essay was entitled Why I Should Like toSee the United Nations in Action As a prize she gets a free trip to the UN this summer

I would ilike to take this opportunity to thank the Odd Fellow and Rebekah organizations for the scholarship of$500 I would also like to thank the selection committee from the Education Fund for choosing me This money will help tremendously with expenses during my second year of college especially with the cost of books

I would also like to thank Odd Fellow Lodge 699 and Rebekah Lodge 74 for their support they have shown to my family and me in my journey to further my education

It is wonderful that there are organizations like the Odd Fellows and Rebekahs that are willing to reach out and help people in need This scholarship money (only one of the ways that Odd FellowsRebekahs give help) means a lot to students who have to count every penny to meet college expenses

Once again my thanks to all concerned

Sincerely Scott D Lees

8 THE PENNSYLVANIA ODD FELLOW August 2003

MY CUP HAS OVERFLOWED Ive never made a fortune and its probably too late now But I dont worry about that much Im happy anyhow

And as I go along lifes way Im reaping better than I sowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

Havent got a lot of riches and sometimes the goings tough But Ive got loving ones all around me and that makes me rich enough

I thank God for his blessings and the mercies Hes bestowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

I remember times when things went wrong My faith wore somewhat thin But all at once the dark clouds broke and the sun peeped through again

So Lord help me not to grips about the tough rows I have hoed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cups has overflowed

If God gives me strength and courage When the way grows steep and rough Ill not ask for other blessings Im already blessed enough

And may I never be too busy to help others bear their loads Then Ill keep drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed Author unknown

8 THE PENNSYLVANIA ODD FELLOW August 2003

MY CUP HAS OVERFLOWED Ive never made a fortune and its probably too late now But I dont worry about that much Im happy anyhow

And as I go along lifes way Im reaping better than I sowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

Havent got a lot of riches and sometimes the goings tough But Ive got loving ones all around me and that makes me rich enough

I thank God for his blessings and the mercies Hes bestowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

I remember times when things went wrong My faith wore somewhat thin But all at once the dark clouds broke and the sun peeped through again

So Lord help me not to grips about the tough rows I have hoed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cups has overflowed

If God gives me strength and courage When the way grows steep and rough Ill not ask for other blessings Im already blessed enough

And may I never be too busy to help others bear their loads Then Ill keep drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed Author unknown

Well indeed our Noble Grand did not let us down with her clever and crafty ideas for a special treat Although she did not have the Easter Bunny hopping around the room she did have a very attractive refreshment table decorated with two Easter Bunny coconut cakes and lots of other goodies to beautify the table

She presented each one present with a plastic Easter egg filled with homemade candy eggs made by members of the Senior Citizen Center in town

Our entertainment committee also did an excellent job of providing readings and poems about Easter and the customs of other Countries on how they celebrate Easter

8 THE PENNSYLVANIA ODD FELLOW August 2003

MY CUP HAS OVERFLOWED Ive never made a fortune and its probably too late now But I dont worry about that much Im happy anyhow

And as I go along lifes way Im reaping better than I sowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

Havent got a lot of riches and sometimes the goings tough But Ive got loving ones all around me and that makes me rich enough

I thank God for his blessings and the mercies Hes bestowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

I remember times when things went wrong My faith wore somewhat thin But all at once the dark clouds broke and the sun peeped through again

So Lord help me not to grips about the tough rows I have hoed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cups has overflowed

If God gives me strength and courage When the way grows steep and rough Ill not ask for other blessings Im already blessed enough

And may I never be too busy to help others bear their loads Then Ill keep drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed Author unknown

8 THE PENNSYLVANIA ODD FELLOW August 2003

MY CUP HAS OVERFLOWED Ive never made a fortune and its probably too late now But I dont worry about that much Im happy anyhow

And as I go along lifes way Im reaping better than I sowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

Havent got a lot of riches and sometimes the goings tough But Ive got loving ones all around me and that makes me rich enough

I thank God for his blessings and the mercies Hes bestowed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed

I remember times when things went wrong My faith wore somewhat thin But all at once the dark clouds broke and the sun peeped through again

So Lord help me not to grips about the tough rows I have hoed Im drinking from my saucer Cause my cups has overflowed

If God gives me strength and courage When the way grows steep and rough Ill not ask for other blessings Im already blessed enough

And may I never be too busy to help others bear their loads Then Ill keep drinking from my saucer Cause my cup has overflowed Author unknown
