The Anaconda standard., 1897-12-06


not he who slays one. Wealth and pres
stige are yet esteemed. but worth ana
principle are lauded. Evil exists, but
the tendency is toward humanity, free
dom and enlightenment.
Our order is a product of this latter
age. 1t was born with mankind's de-
sire for enobiement. 1t was nurtured
at the fountain of human good Will
Like unto its basic principle, charity,
Ii gains strength by giving strength
1t broadens its purpose with the IN
crease of mans abilities. III will al
tain perfection and the end only when
man himself is perfect, and his fur
ther improvement impossible. Brother
Elks. all men are brothers in the com
munity of fraternal love The true Elk
is altruistic. an idealist, an optimist.
Ours is an order of all creeds and Of
none. We must believe in the all-seeing.
omnipotent God. We must love our
brother man, for in this we'll done is
God well served. You recall the couplet
of Leigh Hunts:
"Abou Ben Adhem. may his tribe In
crease,
Awoke one night from dream of
peace,
And saw within the moonlight in his
room,
Making it rich. and like lily in
bloom,
An anger Wiieihs IN a poon -. .,,.
