lodge having the greatest number
of ladies in the line when the an
nual demonstration of the lodges
takes place on the fourth day OF the
convention and another for the
lodge which brings the largest num-
Der of ladies to the reunion.
1 Atlantic City owes much to the
interest and enthusiasm OF the fair
sex for its many ATTRACTIONS, and it
is very proper therefore that At
lanttc CITY should launch che propo-
sition for national organization
of the energetic women's auxlliarles
of the Elks. If this idea gains a
foothold at the July reunion here
the resort will feel that it has
helped the cause of Elkdom and
paid deserved tribute to the good
works Of the orders energetic aux
iliaries.
There will he prizes also for the
Hodge contingent making the best
appearance in the competitive drill,
drilling to count 80 per cent, and

the best bands, and cash awards for
the three lodges having the largest
number of men in line. There will

greatest distance to the ATLANTIC
lefty reunion. Atlantic City will Of

tractlve floats and the most Deauti-
iful banner. " -
/ To encourage decoration and IL.
Illumination on the part of citizens
Atlantic City lodge will offer prizes
falgo for the best decorated and most
brilliantly Illuminated buildings. It
is sufficient to say right now that
the avenues and the far famous
board walk will he masses of bunt-
ing in day time and literally ablaze
with electricity after nightfall
Preparations for the housing of
the thousands coming from every
Elk town in the country for the re-
union, are going forward steadily.
Hotel proprietors have discounted
the tourists agencies responsible
for so much. discomfort and dissat-
isfaction at the past conventions
and are making their bookings alto
gether through the thoroughly
equipped hotel bureau established
by the Atlantic lodge under the
competent direction of Harvey X.
Eaton, acting secretary OF the re-
union executive committee.
Through this agency, lodges, dele
cations and individual representa-
tives may make their reservations
for exactly the kind of accommoda-
lions they want, with the certainty
that they will get exactly what they
contract for and that there will be
no grasping oyercharges.
Judging from early signs the
contest for grand exalted ruler will
be one of the closest and most ex-
citing for years Up to this time

BRIDE Is BLIND DUE
TO HURTING YOUTH

Everett, Wash.-A strange sequel to
the killing of Virgil Bell recently
when Mrs. Sarah Watson fired a rifle
bullet accidently through the young
mans breast, is that Mrs. Watson has
been stricken with blindness that may
be permanent,
only a short time after the young
married woman was taken to the
home of her uncle, J. s. Moss, at 1929
Smith avenue, she complained of dis
tress in her eyes, but she was so ner-
vous at the time that little attention
was paid to her complaint.
Later it developed that Mrs. Wat
sons vision had been so seriously af-
fected by the shock of the tragedy
that her sight was deserting her. She
is unable to distinguish day from
night and has to keep her eyes band
aged tightly.
Physicians attribute the impaired
vision to the shock of seing Virgil
Bell fall at her feet and hearing his
shiek when the bullet pierced his
body.
Every effort is being made to quiet
Mrs. Watson's nerves, which have been
at high tension since the occurrence.

MINDS DIFFER AS
TO CLUB LOCATION
SUBJECT WILL BE UP
At MONTHLY LUNCHEON
Failing Site and Brownsfield-Matloc
Building Have Advocates-Commit-
tee May Submit Majority and Mi
nority Reports Upon Subject.

II appearances are worth anything
the monthly luncheon by the Com
mercial club, to be held at the Odd
Fellows banquet hall tomorrow even
ing, will not be an idle talk fest. on
the contrary, it will be a very inter-
esting session and there are indica-
tions that the gathering may prove
an exciting one.
The subject of new quarters for the
club will be the chief topic for con-
sderation and discussion. This after
noon a call went out for a meeting
of the new quarters committee for
4:S0 p. m. today and at that time the
committee will endeavor to agree up
on a report to be submitted tomor-
row evening.
At this time the committee Is di-
vided in mind as to what should be
done and there is a possibility that
majority and minority reports may
be submitted. During the past few
days the talk of new club quarters
has largely centered around the
proposition of leasing the upper floor
of the Matlock- -Brwnfield building on
Main street or of purchasing the Jesse
Failing property near the river and
the erection of club building there
on. Each scheme has its advocates
and the merits of the respective To-
cations will be presented tomorrow
evening.

best thing to do is to 60 to Washing

Cupid's Special and have the knot
tied there. The kind Of knot that Is
tied by the Washington parsons for
Cupid's Special couples Is neither
slip knot or hard knot but Just q
lovely little beau knot that Is a thing
Of beauty and JOY forever. You can't
unite this same knot with ease, neither
will 1t be found too fast and firm, but
just strikes the happy medium.
At least this IL the experience OF
those cooling doves who have been fet-
tered by the bands Of matrimony
under the guidance Of Cupid's Special.
This outpouring Of the joys OF welded
bliss flows from heresay and not ex-
perience as its source. Otherwise the
writer might change his tune and sing
a swan song rather than the jubilant
trillo of the lark.
