BENEVOLENT AND PROTECTIVE ELKs.
Jersey City Lodge is great go. Its
progress has exceeded the predictions of
the most sanguine of the enthusiasts
-Four candidates were initiated at the
communication on Monday night and
there are several applications under con-
sideration. Its prosperity is due to the
rigid adherence to business during the
business session and the social meeting
which always follows These social ses-
sions are always interesting and the
members unhesitatingly contrib
ute to make them pleasant,
They are a happy band and
the members are always eager 10 get to
the meetings. The interest is not allowed
to abate. The lodge has decided TO fit up
a room of its own and have headquarters
where the members can spend their even
ings; sort of clubroom or recruiting
station. as friends of the members will be
allowed to visit the rooms, enjoy the
hospitality of the brethren and they will
soon desire to unite with the
jolly boys Of No. 94 The rooms
will be properly managed and there
will be no chance for unpleasant
comments. A committee has been ap-
pointed to secure rooms, and the mem
bers are on still hunt for a suitable To-
cation in lower Jersey CITY.
Hoboken Lodge has NOT manifested
as much activity as it should.
The election cannot arrive too soon, as
change in officers is. sadly needed. The
District Deputy has an opportunity to
display his executive ability and tact by
etfecting a revival and restoring har-
mony. A change of meeting night would
be beneficial. The Lodge erred in drop
ping It's social sessions, for its meetings
became dull and uninteresting.
