ganization that reaches over the whole
union, embracing many lodges in every
state, and that has dispensed mill
sons of dollars for the aid of man
kind; an order that gathers in gentle
charity to dispense it, as the silent
charity, but not aims.
They taught charity without osten-
tatlon, the one great secret of the
order being to dispense charity with
out publicity; and to keep sacred the
name of brother receiving aid from
the order. They taught the members
to write the faults OF their brothers
on the sand, and to engrave their
virtues on tablets of love and memory.
They taught that not only for the
living must they manifest regard
and fraternal care, but for those
who have solved the mysteries of life
and death, and each year solemn
services are held to do honor to their
memory.
In 1871 it was decided to extend the
order to other cities, and charter was
obtained from the state of New York
for grand lodge to grant charters
to lodges elsewhere. This plan con-
tinued to exist until 1889, when the
subordinate lodges proposed that the
grand lodge be the creation of the
combined lodges, and the order since
that date has advanced in the benevo-
lent field as no other fraternity eveJ
dreamed possible.

ambiguous name of the Jolly Corks.
Whether the title was adopted because
OF the ligntness of spirit that was 8
prime characteristic of the little party,
or on account of the connections of
corks with the theatrical profession,
has never been fully explained. At
first only few were banded together.
Each week a purse was raised by
small contributions from the members
which was used to pay for the meeting
room and buy refreshments and lunch
for the company.
It was at the boarding house of Mrs.
Giesman, at 1873 Elm street, New York,
that the first meetings Of the Corks
were held. Mrs. Giesman IS house was
at that time famous resort for a
number OF choice spirits, among whom
were several musicians and others
connected with the theatrical profess
sion. These, with a few congenial
associates, were in the habit of as
sembling in her parlor Sunday after
Moons and spending the time in social
intercourse. It was at one of these
meetings the association was given
permanent form, and the first officers

most desirable residential section
of Bemidji, although other sections
as well, possess numerous fine
dwellings. Lake Irving skirts the
southern boundary Of the city and
is about one mile in diameter, pre-
senting an almost complete circle.
Fish Of various kinds are plentiful
in both lakes.
Bcmidji has outgrown its ele-
nentary stage and advanced to a
position Of prominence that places
It in the category Of the leading
and most progressive cities of the
state. The true refinement that
permeates the home and social

people in plenty.

to find name to substitute for Jolly
Corks were thorough Americans, and
naturally wanted a distinctive Ameri-
can name. Buffaloes had been sug-
.gested, but although the animal was
a native of the country the knowledge
that an English order had usurped
the name caused the suggestion to be
discarded. The minds of the committee
seemed to run to animals. Bears
were thought of, but as those ami
mails had few inviting traits, being
coarse, brutal and morose, the
thought of adoption was cast aside;
beavers, Industrious enough, but too
destructive; foxes, too cunning and
crafty, and so on through the list. In
choosing the elk the founders were
inspired with poesy. In natural his
tory there is 40 animal more beauti-
full. Majestic of mien, swift of foot,
timid and shy, an eye as soft as child
hoods, an elk is, nevertheless, reso-
lutte in the defense of its rights. The
prey Of many, it brings no grief to
any child of the forest. 1t is neither
rapacious nor revengeful. Its home
is sylvan, and its ways are ways of
pleasantness.
The constitution and bylaws were
adopted February l6, 1868, and tenn

tive Order of Elks, Charles A. Vivian

The City Of Bennidji.

Bemidji, the county seat of Bel
traml county, is city of $500
inhabitants.
The city is midway between
Duluth and Crookston and is the
central city of the north half Of the
state.
Bemidji is charmingly situated
on the shores of two beautiful and
picturesque bodies of water, the
larger, Lake Bemidji, being some
thing over six miles long and from
two to three miles wide; it borders
the east edge of the city extending
north and south. On its beautiful
wooded banks, which rise abruptly
some fifty feet from the waters
edge is the lakeshore boulevard,
which follows the shore line for
some miles, forming a most
delightful drive IN summer. Ada
cent to the boulevard are situated
some Of the most substantial
homes in the city, and the immedi-
ate vicinity IS regarded as the

put an end to all the old places of

For a while the actors were at loss
what to do. Their meetings had be-
come SO regular, although they had no
organization, and they had become
so cemented together in the bonds of
goodfellowship that the depriv alton

need of a social organization. How

bers Of the order, but in my opinion

bers Of the order, but in my opinion
the association was organized for the /
purpose of cementtng more firmly the
ties which bind us together in one OF
the greatest fraternal organizations
known to man. To be Identified with
this great brotherhood is OF itself
an honor, and therefore it must of
necessity be a pleasure for US to meet
annually with good fellows from all
parts of the state. The state associa-
ton is to Minnesota what the Grand
Lodge is to the parent organization,
and to many of us it is the. annual
home coming when we again meet
socially with Elks from all parts of
the state, who are enlisted with US in
carrying out the great principles Of
our order, namely Charity, Justice,
Brotherly Love and Fidelity.
AS we are proud Of our organize
ton and the good it accomplishes, SO
should we all be proud of the State
Association, and we should indicate
our loyalty to the principles Of the
order by attending every recurring
reunion, where we can meet and
exchange ideas and thoughts with the
the thousands of good Elks who are
continually scattering roses in the
pathway of their less fortunate
brothers, and by word or deed are
doing something to make the name Of
Elk a lasting and pleasant remem-
brance to him that does and to him
that receives.
I have frequently heard the remark,
''sHe's an Elk and a good felloW!" Is
it any wonder that the expression is q
synonym? To be a 'sgood fellow" from
my standpoint, means to be a good
loyal, libe:ty-loving citizen. A man
who looks upon the brightest side of
life, whose face is enlivened with a
smile, who belives in doing unto others
as he would have others do
unto him, who always finds time to
visit the sick and hereaved, and is
never SO poor in pocket shat he can
not find someone little bit poorer
with whom he is willing to share his
last crust. OF course, the Elks are
5agood fellows, and the expression is
one in which we should find the
greatest comfort and take the creates
pride.
. The annual reunion to be held at
.Bemidji on June 1s, 10 and 20 will I
hope be the grandest reunion of the
association ever held in Minnesota,
and hope that by our actions as men
and Elks we will co nt1nue to merit the
high standard of esteem in which our.
order is held, not only by Elks, but by
the public generally. We, at a dis
tance, havs heard many good things
about the Elks of Bemidji, and it will
afford us much pleasure to join with
them in the fourth annual reunion and
a Grand, Good Time, which we know
is in store.
