ON LAND AND WATER
FUN WILL PREVAIL

A thousand North Dakota Elks will
attend the annual meeting of the
North Dakota Elks association which
will be held in Grand Forks June 81
and 90 That is the idea held by the
members of the Grand Forks lodge,
No. 255, and they are now making
preparations with a view to providing
entertainment for that number.
Some new entertainment features
will be introduced at this. the first
annual meeting of the association
The state lodge of Elks was only
launched about a year ago, and it was
at that time decided that No. 255, the
mother lodge of Elkdom in this state
should have the privilege Of provid-
ing the first entertainment for the
lodges in the state. There now are
nine Elk lodges in the state and each
of them is expected to send delega-
lions of from IS to $50, and these Wis
itors, together with the members Of
the Grand Forks lodge, will swell the
total number to 1900 or 1900.
Both on land and on the water the
fun festival promises to be right
good at every stage. There will be,
to use the parlance of the proclama-
ticn that has been issued over the
signature Of w. H. McGraw, exalted
ruler of No. 255, "diddings" and do
ings." The "diddings." as detailed,
include a grand Elks parade, an au-
tomobile parade, a water pageant,
cracking of the ice (palace), field
sports and picnic, together with a
grand ball-perhaps.
The Elk picnic will take place at
the Town and Country club, or Lin
coin park, as it is now known, and
the committee announces that there
will be prizes for wives, daughters
and sweethearts of Elks who partici-
pate in the sporting contests. Then
there will be naval engagement be-
tween two boats on the Red river, and
the cid Hudson Bay post, Fort Ell
ton" near the site of the Country
club house, will again be stormed
and taken by the Red river fleet.
Fargo, Bismarck, jamestown, VAL
ley City, Dickinson, Minot, Devils
Lake, and Williston are the cities of
the state outside of Grand Forks in
which Elks lodges have been organ
lied, and from each of those cities
delegations are expected.
The officers of the State Elk asso-
citation are the following:
President, James A. Dinnie. Grand
