OF WARDEN lyman
Musical Program Pleases
Large Crowd Present at
the Exercises.

The motto Of the order of. Elks,
CHARITY. Justice. B%rotherly Love. and
Fidelity" was the text on which
Tracy II. Bangs delivered the address
at the annual memorial services held
Sunday afternoon by the Grand Forks
lodge Of the order.
In this connection Mr.. Bangs de-
clared that n of the finest exempli-
ficatiOns Of. the application of this
motto was being given by Warden
lyman of the Missouri state prison, at
Kansas City. Mo.
Warden lyman is an Elk and has
been endeavoring to conduct the pri-
son along the lines laid down in the
motto of the order. The convicts are
treated like human beings. instead of
like wild animals; they are allowed
unusual privileges, and the. honor
system prevails Throughout the prt-
son.
The success Of this plan. according
to Mr.. Bangs shows how we'll the mot
to will work when applied to real life,
and he urged his hearers always to
apply it to their every day dealings.
The musical program Of the exer-
rises included "Tennyson's Crossing
the Bar" sung by. N. b. Black, AMI
the Berceuse from Jocelyn played on
The cello by Alfred Howe. The in
vocation and benediction were pro-
llounced by Rev. F. NJ. Mccoy.
\ large audience or members Of
the order and others were present at
the exercises.
The services were beautiful, the
rltualistic memorial exercises being
carried. out by the officers. a large
number Of friends Of the order, and
of the members. attended, the services
being held III the main lodge room of
the Elk building.
