E[KS MEMORIAL SERVICES
Bryan Lodge Honors Memory Of De
parted Brothers with Exercises
at First Baptist Church.

In accordance with the most beautj.
full sentiment in all Elksdom, Bryan
Lodge No. $50, Benevolent and Pro
tective Order of Elks, in common with
their brothers throughout the land.
assembled at 1870 o'clock last night
at the First Baptist church as a lodge
OF sorrow to pay tribute to the mem.
DRY of their departed brethren. This
is indeed a beautiful service. there
being none more beautiful in all the
fraternal world.
The church was appropriately deco
rated for the occasion with the colors
and official insignia of the order. The
officers of the lodge occupied the pull
pit with the members sitting imme-
d!ately in front, the remainder of the
church being filed with the families
and friends of the order
The most impressive feature of the
exercises was the calling of the roll
of the honored dead. When the score
tary arose at his station and called
i'll distinct voice each loved name,
there was no response; and the SOL
emn stiffness, and train of reflections
awakened by the service brought tears
to many eyes.
Hon. Louis ]. Workman of Fort
Worth was the orator Of the occasion
and his address was one of the best
ever heard here upon similar occa-
sions. He reviewed the history of the
order, and portrayed in beautiful word
painting its objects and high and no
BILE principles. He also paid beauti-
full tribute to the memory of the de-
parted brothers whose faults were
written in the sand, and whose good
deeds upon the tablets of love and
memory"
The other speaker, Mr.. d. o. Lively,
was prevented from being present by
serious illness in his family.
An appropriate musical program was
carried out under the direction of Mrs.
H. o. Boatwright.
