Big Brother Movement.

THE Benevolent and Protective
Order of EIks has IN the last few
years inaugurated the big brother move
ment, and today there are thousands
OF clean. outstanding young fellows,
we'll started along the path of decency
and prosperity as a direct result Of
this movement. At a gathering OF
serious men, when Ernest X. Coulter,
who is the founder OF the big brother
movement, told OF the sights he saw
daily in the children's court OF New
York, OF the children under 1G years
OF age who had come in conflict with
The law, he was asked: Can nothing
be dOne?' He answered, Yes, be the
neighbOr.' II IS not the law the lad
needs. but justice, the kind Of justice
which only the brother can give; the
love, the friendship for which his life
has been starving And at last we are
bestrirring ourselves TO mend the en-
vironment Is the chief claim OF our
day, 10 be better than all that went
before. a friend IS a Teller that
knows about yer and likes yer just
the same That describes the friend
ship that grew up between Mike, one
Of the most picturesque street Arabs
that ever came into the charge of the
big brothers. and the big brother,
successful business man, who became
interested IN him. saved him and
thereby made himself n bigger and a
better man. The big brother move
ment IS the practical and human work
for child victims OF bad environment,
and which has already spread through
81 a. Tgr1L
tective order Of the Elks 10 many
cities. And this wonderful work among
children is the direct result
OF brotherly love that is fostered in
the lodge room.
Morally and intellectually. man has
made magnificent developments in
this country. especially in the last 60
years. And II Is fitting. as we are
here assembled, 10 ask ourselves,
What have we done, aud what are we
