PROSPERITY IN
THE ELKs' LODGE
Grand Secretary Robinson Delivers
Report at National Conven-
ton At Baltimore.

Keokuk Elks will be interested in
the following story from Baltimore,
the scene Of the Elks' national con-
vention:
baltimore, Nd, July 13.-Fred
C.. Robinson Of Dubuque. Ia. grand
secretary of the B. P. O.. E., in the
grand lodge which opened its annual
session here this week, submitted an
annual report which showed the order
to be In q fourishing condition. He
said that thirteen years ago the grand
lodge met in this city, and that de-
spite the hoodoo of thirteen" comes
back in the best condition 1t ever has
been.
1.-THE report said:
During the past year, We find that
1890 new members Joined our ranks,
making a total membership In good
standing on April 1, 1916. Of 453.516;
fourteen new lodges were added, the
last dispensation issued being No.
1870. During that time 81 members
were suspended or expelled, 1927
were stricken from the rolls for nom
payment Of dues and 5,il4 were de-
ceased. These figures indicate con-
dition of affairs that challenges the
earnest attention of those who have
the welfare OF the order at heart and
who are endeavoring to place 1t upon
a sound foundation In the fraternal
world. Not that the figures are so
much larger than in former years,
but they go to show that lodges are
beginning to realize that t. Is useless
to carry on the roster undesirable
members.
""The total receipts Of the grand
lodge for the year were $2l3,65o.oe.
The per capita yielded sl13,2SS.z5;

Opening Up a New Continent.


Kansas City Star: The news that
the Australians are building 1000
miles of railroad to open up the In
terror Of their country doesn't even
interest the average American.
We'll, what Of it?" he is apt to say
Nine in every ten Americans know
almost nothing about Australia and
care less. But the Australians hope
to make us take more interest In
them as their export trade develops.
1t Is for the development OF this trade
as well as for the general opening up
of the country that they are building
1000 miles of railway through des-
ert
Few of us realize what mighty
continent Australia Is; that 1t is big
ger than the United States; that it is
farther from east to west across that
continent than from New York to San
Francisco, and farther from north to
south than from Duluth to New Or
leans.
But" you say, after looking at .
map, st is only settled around tho
coasts; across the whole interior Is
printed The Great Victoria desert
Yes; and there was a time, within
memory of men not yet very old,
when across the interior of America,
where Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado
and Nebraska are now. were printed
the words. 'The Great American
desert" The building OF the Union
Pacific and other railroads proved the
American desert to be no desert at
all. but a productive country.

TO Preserve Her Hair

IF women would use an Anti-Septic
Oil Shampoo instead Of tho soaps and
shampoos now SO commonly used, they
would improve rather than injure the
delicate hair plants.
Tho hair plant is an oil plant and to
wash it with soaps or shampoos con.
tanning free alkai works great injury.
It not only cuts the natural oil of the
hair but it destroys tho fatty roots Of
the hair plant causing the hair to come
out.
EVERY WEEK ANTI-sEPTIC OIL
SHAMPOO cleanses and purifies the
scalp dissolves and removes dandruff,
opens the clogged hair-cells and leaves the
scalp soft and healthy.
It leaves tho hair soft, lustrous, fluffy
and easy to handle.

Terms.

Declslcn Handed Down In Case Tried
in District Court Of

CASE FROM, SIOUX CITY

r. vs. : I Il, & = Is ID.
According to dispatch from Des
Moines. the Iowa supreme court has
held invalid the law permitting dis
trict judges to sentence men to serve
term Of not more than one year in
the penitentiary for violating.a liquor
Injunction. The court revives the law
which was in effect with regard to
handling injunction violations previ-
GUS to the law enacted by the last
general assembly.
The court holds that a liquor in
junction is a civil proceeding and vio-
lation of It can not be made punish
able by a sentence in the peniten-
tiary. However, the court may pun
ish bootlegger for contempt of court
for violating an Injunction by fine
or tmprisonm emit in the county Jail
under the former law, which the high
court holds is still in effect.
Case From Sioux City.
The decision is in the case OF Mike
Flanagan of Sioux City VS.. the dis
trict court Of Woodbury. county. Mike
was sentenced to year In the prison
for violating : an Injunction. Judge
Oliver, In defending Flanagan in an
argument before the supreme court,
claimed that the section OF the con-
stitution framed to protect the slaves
prior to the civil war also protected
Flanagan from penitentiary SEN
tence growing out Of a civil proceed
ing.
The contention that a Person can
not be sent to the penitentiary with
out trial by jury after proper in
dictment has been returned, was sus-
tanned by the high court.
Throws Out New Law.
The high court says that the prison
sentence is unjust and that Flanagan
shall be arra;gned before the Wood
bury county district court for SEN
tence for contempt Of court under the
terms Of the old law.
There were five men in the Iowa
serving terms for violat-
ing liquor injunctions. -Four Of them
were sent up from Wapello county.
They did not appeal to the supreme
court However, 1t 10 said that the
knocking out Of the law win serve to
release them from further service
under their sentence.
