his babies never cry at night, and
his wife never scolds, and he has

Elks Will Have q Fire.

The Elks are preparing to do a few
things at the next two meetings of the
lodge. Next Monday night a class of
fifteen will be initiated, to be follow
ed on the night of the 18th, a week lat,
er. with a class of twenty. and if there
be any absent members of the lodge
on those two nights, it will be because
the Lord prevents or some other un-
foreseen accident occurs.
On Monday night, June 10, the lodge
will pay the last installment OF the debt
on the home at the coTne of Second
and University avenue and the mort
gage will be burned to ashes in the
presence of the lodge, with Exalted
Ruler w. w. Bower in the chair. 1t
is suggested that the cigars of the
members be lighted from the burning
bond, n this will probably be done.
The lodge thus in two or three years
clears up a debt of several thousand
dollars and becomes the owner, free of
lncumbrance, of one of the handsom-
est lodge rooms in the west.
