Reminder that all bulletins must be reading all Klaverns, announces that Imperial klonsel Homer B. Heely is now permanently located at the Headquarters Offices, warns C. Elliott and J.H. Hawkins have partnered to "force this organization to them back into our fold", but that this won't be done.

Bulletin #22: Special Official Imperial Document

Title reads: "To All Geni, King and Major Kleagles, Kleagles, Imperial Representatives, and Citizens of the Invisible Empire". Claims they have a document signed by J.H. Hawkins who was banished from the organization in June 1924. It states that "an amalgamation has been formed between the Ku Klux Klan of Kanada and the Ku Klux Klan of the British Empire, and a meeting of the Imperial Kloncilium will be held" on march 27. Document further states that all members should lay aside all "personal ambitions" and be ready "to work in the interest of Klancraft". The bulletin responds to this by saying personal ambition was already laid aside months ago, and they see Hawkins note as a "ruse entered into for the purpose of accomplishing the early ambitions and purposes of these discredited and banished men". In general claims the Fowler's statement is false, as there has been no amalgamation, and never will be, and that they can never restore the banished people because they have already proven themselves unworthy. "This organization, the K.K.K. of K. has consistently for the sake of our great cause taken over without cost to them, such men and women as were deceived, and gotten into these spurious movements. Accordingly the Imperial Wizard, the Imperial Kligrapp, and the entire membership at Sarnia, London, and Stratford of the Hawkins group were taken into this body together with a goodly number of others in the four or five communities in which the organization operates. [...] [this] organization has been right and God sent from the beginning. It was O. Elliott who on June 24 accused J.H. Hawkins of (1) treachery [...] (2) failure to account for funds, (3) disloyalty to the organization, and (4) violation of his Oath of Allegiance [...] We are given the facts to our entire membership and we are a unit and are prepared to show up discredited and banished, personally ambitious, parties, and to see that they shall not at anytime, anywhere, further deceive the White, Gentile, Protestant people of our fair Canada. They are banished. They belong to the alien world. Let us deal with them accordingly". Signed the Invisible Empire of the Ku Klux Klan of Kanada, By order of the Imperial Wizard, C Lewis Fowler, Imperial Kligrapp.

Bulletin #21

Title reads: "To All Geni, King and Major Kleagles, Kleagles, Imperial Representatives, and Citizens of the Invisible Empire". Reads "Greeting". In general mentions there have been some reports of certain Klan groups that attempted an organization under the leadership "of those who were banished from our ranks for cause has a Charter for their organization", and that this report is false, as they have no Klan Charter and "will never have". Apparently they got a charter for a club called "The Equal Rights League" which "means absolutely nothing". Mentions the Klan movement which is worldwide and is to "compass the Globe wherever White, Gentile, Protestant people live. Nothing can stop or hinder it. The Klan movement is the hope of the white race, is the rainbow of promise for world-wide Protestantism and is the only instrument produced hitherto that does and can guarantee success to our cause". Mentions as well that their increased growth requires more donations, and where those might be sent. Also, the Imperial Klaliff is on a tour in New Brunswick, and planning visits in Winnipeg, Regina, and Vancouver. Cautions to "watch Rome and study Rome at the present. The papists are using every strategy within their reach to get political control in Canada. Their untaxed property is a real menace, their school system a tragedy, and their bi-linguicism a curse to Canada [...] We must have National Unity -we must have a great "National" army of Klan workers. Let us regard those who suggest division anywhere at any time, under any condition as enemies to our great cause". Lastly notes to practice "Klanishness in every Klan", to "stand back of Klans-people in business", to remember that the Klan is not a "Lodge" but a "Movement". Signed "I. T. S.U. B., C Lewis Fowler, Imperial Kligrapp".

Bulletin #20

Title reads: "To All Geni, King and Major Kleagles, Kleagles, Imperial Representatives, and Citizens of the Invisible Empire". Reads as "Greeting", then points following generally about enquiries made on a Gilbert of Petterboro Ont who was taken into custody recently in connection with some "unlawful transactions". Points out that this man was not accepted into the Klan when he applied last summer, but later became a member of the "K.K.K. of B.E.", and when this group rejoined their main group, he was again refused to be a member, as they are "not after numbers", and do not want "dead weight". Mentions elsewhere in the bulletin a Funeral Ceremony and buying official Klan books. Also mentions recent news in daily papers that one or two Popes have recently commented on "ugly things about the Klan movement", but that they expected this. "Each knock is a boost for us and calls the attention of thousands to the work we are doing. men think for themselves these days. One paper said we Protestants can never and will never "STICK TOGETHER". This shows they do not know the Klan. It has often been true in the past that our Protestant movements have broken up into segments, small groups, and have thus destroyed their usefulness [...] But such men are not real Klansmen, but are real enemies to the cause of Protestantism. The Klan "MOVEMENT" is primarily a world movement, and is national in each country. In "UNION" there is strength. No, the Klan will never be broken up for those who have such ideas will be put out of the movement by the local groups. It is time we protestants are learning this exceedingly important fact. Let us keep "PETTY JEALOUSIES" out of this great cause. Keep the one big thing constantly before our eyes ... IN CANADA THIS IS A NATIONAL MOVEMENT ... one big army with one objective. Victory is sure but we must keep step and forward march". Mentions how strong their cooperation has made their movement recently, and how the Klan movement is doubtless the "greatest movement of the age", the "last work in Anglo-Saxon-Protestant organization", the "last instrument of righteousness". On the back of bulletin lists the "duties of officers".
