Dear Sisters,
We have completed another successful Supreme Temple session. Norfolk was a beautiful place and the convention committee did an outstanding job. I would like to thank Wayne Joyner and his committee for their many courtesies.
The new laws that were passed were mailed to your Grand Secretary and they go into affect as soon as they are received.
I now have Pythian Sister pierced earrings in my inventory. They are $10 a pair.
The Journals of Proceedings for this session will be available after 12-31-08. Please let your Grand Secretary know if your temple wants to order one. A price will be determined at a later time.
I am now starting my final two year term. The office is now on computer and we use Quick Books Accounting System. Please contact me if you are interested in information about the Supreme Secretary position.

All for now,
Linda

My Pythian Brothers,
It is truly an honor and privilege to have been elected as your Supreme Secretary. My predecessor, Sir Alfred Saltzman PSC, is to be commended for his service and dedication for the last 12 years. He has offered much insight and wisdom to many Brothers, including yours truly. But also his office administrator, Tracey Albanese, is to be saluted for her efficient efforts as his assistant as well. I know I deeply appreciate them both.
Now, for a few details –
I will be traveling to Quincy, MA. shortly, to help coordinate an efficient and smooth office transition from Quincy, to Topeka, KS. The week of September 15th, the ‘physical’ move will be made, and the week of the 22nd, the Office will be unpacked and organized, so that by October 1, it will be fully operational. As I am one that likes to communicate often, I will be providing you with frequent updates until the new Supreme Lodge office is 100% ‘up and running’. There will be a new e-mail address, which I will provide in this column in the near future.
Brothers, communication is the ‘lifeblood’ of the Order – and it will be at the top of my list, to provide it with accuracy, efficiency and wherever feasible, to provide it at less expense to us all.
Thank You, and I look forward to serving our great Order in this new capacity.

Fraternally
In F. C. & B.,
Steve
