Clearances are granted at no extra charge to members. The entrance fees and rates of subscription ■will be found to compare favourably with those charged by other societies, and are as moderate as practicable, having due regard to the benefits secured, a sjnopsis of which is subjoined: — A Benefit Member receives during illness £1 per Tveek for TWENTY-SIX CONSECUTIVE WEEKS, los. for the next thirteen weeks, and 103. for a further period of thirteen weeks j on death of wife, £10 ; at his own death his relatives receive £20. He has medical attendance and medicine for himself and family immediately on joining. If a single man with a WIDOWED MOTHER, AND BROTHERS AND SISTERS (under 18 years of age), he has medi1 cal attendance and medicine for them. A member removing can have a CLEARANCE which will ADMIT him to ANY branch of the 1 Society in the locality to which he may remove. Honorary and Life Honorary Members are provided for, and may, on the payment of a \ SMALL weekly contribution, secure medical attendance. , Our fellow Catholics have no longer the excuse, heretofore too I well founded, that there is no Catholic society for them to join, offering advantages equal to those afforded by other benefit societies, • as the HIBERNIAiN AUSTRALASIAN CATHOLIC BENEFIT 1 SOCIETY is in a position to offer benefits not to be surpassed by any 1 other society in New Zeahu.d ; it is therefore confidently anticipated that in a very short time many thousands will be enrolled in its ranks throughout this Colony, forming an institution to which it will be an honor to belong, and of which the members may feel justly proud.^ As set forth in the introduction to the Rules, one of the objects of the Society is for the members to " Cherish the memory of Ireland," 1 rejoicing in the px'osperity and condoling in the sufferings of their native land, and to bind them yet closer in social chains of fraternity and friendship in this distant land. Also, to endeavor to instil into , the minda of the Celtic-New-Zealaud race a veneration for the laud of 1 their forefathers, in order that they may imitate, if not excel, the faith and virtues of that devoted nation ; and to extend the hand of fellowship to their co-religionists of every nationality, participating with them in a brotherly spirit every benefit, social and pecuniary, the Society affords.
