Lodge of Sorrow
 By Paragould Elks
(From Mondays Daily Press)

(From Mondays Daily Press)
 What is conceded to have been the prettiest and most impressive memorial service ever held here by the Paragould lodge of Elks was rendered at the Majestic theater yesterday afternoon in the annual Lodge of Sorrow. The ritualistic work had been slightly changed by the grand lodge, the ceremony made shorter and, if possible, more solemn. During the past year only one member of the local lodge l.. J. Empfield, died, and during the entire history of the lodge the order has lost only eight members includ- ing MT. Empfield.
 The program yesterday was fea- tured by appropriate and beautiful ly rendered vocal solos by Miss Anne Stedman and MT. Finlayson, and by a most excellent memorial address by Wm. F. Kirsch, which is declared to have surpassed simi- lar addresses delivered here during the past few years. An audience that filled the seating capacity of the theatre listened to the program and joined in paying tribute to the honored dead.

The father reported their death
to the police, saying he had gone
home from business about the mid

doors locked went out and hunted
for the children In the neighborhood
for some time before entering the
house. He sent his small son into
the house then. On arrival Of the
police Fudge produced several notes
purporting to have been written by
the elder daughter saying she had
killed Ethel and was going to kill
herself. The handwriting appears

Exhibits Are Fine.
1t is real JOY and delight to
stroll down the spacious avenues of
the exhibit hall and view the many
splendid exhibits to be seen, some ar
ranged to the liking of those in
charge and others yet to be arranged
but good nevertheless. 1t is graft
flying to Ellis countians to note that
Ellis county has one of the most
striking exhibits In the hall. not first
perhaps. but splendid display of
her products a railing built of Fer
.ris and Palmer brick gives the mag
nificent display back of 1t. King
cotton is of course featured in the
exhibit since Ellis is the banner cot
ton county of the state and world.
Then there arc two cribs of corn and
various and sundry farm products
which suggest Ellis as the garden
spot of the state. Secretary Carl
Schuster of the Chamber of Com
merce is in charge and he takes a
special pride in showing the visitors
what may be grown in Ellis county.
The Girls Canning club products
form conspicuous part of the ex-
lhibit, and it is well these things are
being shown, for just across the aisle

Cross of Tarrant county. The work
has been in progress for two years

Iitable display is available.
Ellis county is likewise represent
ed in the livestock exhibits. Five of
the Boys Pig club pigs are on dis
play. Nj. d. Robinson and others al
so are competing for prizes. The
livestock show is exceptionally good
this year. This department has made
lup in growth what the agricultural
exhibits have lost during the last few
years. Only few years ago the
livestock exhibit was a small item at
the State Fair. now it takes a great
many honors.
