‘‘Any impression that the Knights of Pythias is ousting
the Silver Threads Sidney organization from use of the K
of P Hall by baldly increasing the rent to $400 a month
makes the Lodge appear as villains, and that position is
resented by the members,”
Wilf. Hetman told The Review last week.

He recalled that when the
Silver Threads contracted to rent

the Hall for $5 a day

ap-

proximately two years ago, its
membership was less than one-
third the present number. Use of
the Hall included’ furnishings,
tables, seats, kitchen facilities,

etc; cupboard space

was

provided for equipment and-a
telephone was installed for their

use, said Mr. Heprnan.

‘A janitorial. service has been
provided by a K.of P. member at
a nominal fee, but now. with the.
increased membership it means...
that this ‘is not sufficient, and a

‘full-time janiter cannot be. ob-
' tained for less than $250 a month,

Mr. Hetman regretted that

He said that the $400 a. month
figure was given to the Silver
Threads organization as an in-
dication of what is required to
cover the cost of a. full-time

necessary facilities.

“No other church or com-
