COMMITTEE IS
ENTHUSIASTIC
Cash Prizes Offered BY Local EIks For
Best Suggestion For Badge and
Costume to Be Worm mt Grand
Lodge Meeting at Dallas,
Texas, in June.

The committee named by the local
Elks some weeks ago to make ar
rangements for the attendance OF the
Pine Bluff delegation of ELS, who eX~
pect to visit Dallas, Texas, in June
and attend the annual convention or
the Elks' grand lodge, met last night
at the parlors Of the Elks Home. II
was the first meeting of the commit
tee, which is composed of e. c. Ar
mold, chairman; F. c, Furth, n. J:
Can't, j. O. Harrison, w. J parkes
and d. W. Dean, and the committee
displayed no little enthusiasm in their
work.
To add to the interest that has al
ready reached an interesting point,
the committee authorized two cash
prizes Of SO each to the. person sug-
costing the best design for a badge,
to be worn by the Elks, and the most
original or attractive costume for the
Pine Bluff Elks at the convention, the
costume to be worn in the parade,
which is annually one of the biggest
features of the grand lodge gathering.
The object OF the local Elks is to
make a most c.editable showing at
the coming meeting. They hope to be
able to make it interesting for their
brothers from other cities and towns
in competing for the valuable prizes
to be offered at Dallas. It is also
desired to incidentally advertise Pine
Bluff as much as possible. Sugges-
tons for the badge and costume are
to be written and handed in to E. c.
Arnold, the chairman OF the commit
tee, prior to o'clock on the evening
of February 10. Elks and non-Elks

as follows: On hotel arrangement
and transportation, E. C. Arnold, D.
w. Dean and e. j. CAN'T. To en-
ploy band, E. G.. Arnold, W. J.
Parkes and J. O. Harrison.
A special train will carry the Elks
to Dallas from this city. 1t is pre-
dicted that more than one hundred
members of the local lodge and their
ladies will take advantage OF the con-
veniences to be offered by the Pine
Bluff lodge on it's special train.
