The Order of Elks.

The order OF Elks is child OF Ameri-
ca and one OF It's noblest offsprings.
10 could not have been devised by the
mind OF man under any other condi-
tions than those that exist In our free
country and under our free institu-
tions. 1t has no ranks and titles II
is no respector of persons. All Elks are
equal, differing only as one may excel
another in loving the good and beau
tiful and In performing noble deeds In
silence and without parade. Its pri-
mary objects is TO succor those in sick
ness and distress and to help the weak
and unfortunate and cheer the des-
pondent.
Following modest in the train OF this
| grand purpose are other aims that aid
| in its fulfillment by teaching men how
to live, by frequent intercourse under
| proper restraint, that curb selfishness
and excess, and which tell man how to
| enjoy the good things OF life without
abuse. The founders OF the order had
no conception of the scope and possibili-
ties Of the present organization. They
| never dreamed of Its greatness, but they
are entitled TO and deserving OF every
credit for sowing the seeds that have
produced such magnificent and grati-
flying results. They "builded wiser
than they knew"
The first lodge Of Elks was organized
on May 81, 1868, on the second floor OF a
two-story frame building, at No. 20
Delaney street, New York city. 1t was
composed only of a few gentlemen Of
the theatrical profession, drawn to-
gether for social intercourse. 1t has
now developed into wide spread and
powerful order OF benevolence and
charity, with lodges in over 800 OF the
principal cities of the Union.
The Order of Elks has won for itself
place among the fraternities OF Ameri-
ca which is entirely unique and dis
tinctive. 1t is rich in good works,
neglecting not its living members
while caring for its dead, and its growth
has been and will be steady and solid.
Its popularity is becoming more and
more pronounced and it bids fair to be-
come in time one of the very largest as
it is now one OF the greatest, fraternal
organizations in the world.-Pennsyl-
vania Grit.
