BEAUTIFUL
MEMORIAL
SERVICE
Conducted at the Grand Opera
House Sunday in Honor
of Departed ElkS.

One day in the year the order that
is usually devoted to good cheer and
a jolly career generally gives up to
a memorial service in honor of the
members who have passed on. The
service Sunday at the opera house
was avery successful lodge occasion.
AS the secretary read the names
of the departed, each one was flashed
in letters lighted on an electric tab
let. The stage was handsomely dec
Grated with flags, flowers and the rit-
ulistic emblems of the order The
memorial service was conducted by
Exalted Ruler B. o. Schucking.
Rev. Bandy, chaplain of the Sa-
lem lodge, invoked the divine bles-
sing on the order. He prayed that
another IL months might roll around
without a death in the ranks. p. II.
Darcy delivered the first eulogy. He
handled the subject with great feel
ing and his customary eloquenoe and
elegance of manner,
The formal address was delivered
by Prof. E. ID. Ressler, of the State
Agricultural College. 1t was
scholarly and philosophical review of
the development of the higher social
organism, and the ideal citizen under
free institutions.
He beautifully sketched the Elks
as q fraternal society of a purely So
cial nature, and brotherhood where
class and rank and wealth and polit-
ical distinction gave no advantage to
the chance holder of these advant-
ages. His address was rosary of
beautiful sentiments suitable to the
occasion.
Mrs. Sara Brown-Savage recited
'Thanatop'sis," by William Cullen
Bryant in a manner that left moth
ing TO be desired.
The program closed with the rit-
ualistic service OF the lodge, bene-
diction and doXology Joined in by the
large audience
Tha vocal numbers consisted Of
a very brilliant solo by Mrs. Jennie
Snyder Warren, and n very impress
siye solo by Miss Lucille Ragsdale.
The orchestra of the order, directed
by G, j. Kurth, played music espe-
cially prepared for the occasion.
The services were held in memory
OF the following brothers:

What's a Governor For.

Charities and Commons: 1t is said
that Pennsylvania has a governor who
not only evinces the ordinary inter
est that every good citizen takes in
the welfare of the wards of the state
but actually appreciates his duty as
chief executive to the extent of max
inquiries about the insane and other
detectives and paying personal Wis
it's to the hospitals. We are not SUI
prised when the governor Of a little
state like Nebraska or Indiana, OF
South Dakota, does this sort of a
thing. The simple farmers or country
lawyers who are made governors in
the wild and woody west, come from
the common people and feel the
common burdens. But when a gov
ernor of Pennsylvania or New York
does as Governors Stuart and Hughes
have done in this respect, the news.
papers praise their actions as Won
derful. The Harrisburg Patriot says
Governor Stuart is the first Pennsyl-
vania executive to take this kind o.
active interest in such affairs. Ger

know of any other city or any actor
in America with anything like this
record, and the result is entirely due
to Mr.. Robertson's courage" Strong
words these from such a distinguish
ed source, but they are but similar to
countless other laudatory express
ions from those high in the world of
art, letters. and the stage. Mr.. Rob
ertson makes his appearance here in
"A Curious Mishap" and his en-
gagement will be for one night, Sat-

President of the Dakota Wesleyan
University preached the morning ser
mon. 1t was strong and thoughtful
and commanded the close attention
OF all the people. AT the close of
the sermon the annual Offering in
behalf of the university was taken.
1t amounted to about $1,000 the
largest Sunday Offering for the same
purpose in the history of the church.
DR.. Hoagland the pastor preached
the sermon at s p. IN. The subject
thought was suggested by the text,
lie took with him a band of men
whose hearts God had touched"
The pastor drew some analogies from
the athletic and military field and
made the address practical and
pointed.
One of the items of the Sunday
with the services is of interest. 1t
contained the list of those who had
Joined the church during the month
of April. 1t aggregated Is in addition
to 2 who had been baptised. 1t was
announced that next Sunday morning
would be observed as Mothers
Day" in accordance with the procla-
nation of the Governor and that in
the evening Labor Sunday" would
be observed in accordance with the
request of the labor unions of the
country. The pastor will speak in

service. Prof. Hobson's number in
the evening was much appreciated.

fine style and finish by the ITALIAN
Octette. The second number the
Overture from Tannhauser arranged
as a piano duet, was given by Misses
Mabel Dickey and Grace Cooper and

Race meetings in the past in Mich
ell have depended to a great extent
upon the initiative solely of the men
most interested in it, who did not
derive any particular benefit in it,
aside from the personal satisfaction
they obtained from having an event
of that sort in the city. 1t is hoped
that this meeting in July may be a
success and one in which all may
feel some responsibility.
