ELkS LODGE
''''' Of Of SORROW
Calls Out Large Gathering on
Sunday Afternoon
IMPRESSIVE CEREMONIES
AND ELOQUENT ADDRESS
Virtues of Departed Brothers Were
Inscribed Upon the Tables of
Love and Memories

Once again the great fraternal
body of Elks has paid its annual
tribute of love and memory to its
departed brothers, indelibly i'm
pressed upon the tablet of life the
virtues of those who have gone
before, and with their devotion
carried to tie world again the
powerful lesson of loving kindness
and charitableness.
On Sunday afternoon the men,
bers of Rocky Ford Lodge No.
1147, b. p. o. E., with large
number of friends gathered in the
Grand opera house to observe the
lesson which the Benevolent Pro-
tective Order. of Elks teaches
the lesson of brotherly love. the
lesson above all others that makes
the whole world better.
The Elks assembled at their
lodge room and marched to the
opera house, which was tastefully
decorated for the occasion-a lodge
of sorrows-and as they filed into
the building the concluding num-
ber of splendid musical program
by the Stangl orchestra filled the
auditorium with sweet strains Of
music.
The officers of the lodge, in
charge Of Exalted Ruler Robert
son, exemplified the memorial rit-
ual of the order in very impress
sive manner and were touching
features of the program.
The eulogy was delivered by Il.
G. Glenn, and as he spoke of the
departed brothersl- + to whom
Frank Nesbitt, L. V. Murphy, w.
A. Burd and J. l.. Potter were
added during the past year-a
flood of memories rushed to the
minds of those who had known
them in life and he most truly ex-
emplitied that noble thought en-
grained III the heart of every Elk.
The faults of our brothers we
write upon the sands, their virtues
upon the tablets of love and men,
ory."

was delivered by Hon. Harvey E.
Garman of Denver.

SERIES OF FIRES
Keeps the Department Busy During
the Past Week


Since Thanksgiving night when the
fire department was called out to quell
a blaze that had originated in some
straw in an outbuilding at the Al Farris
home on South Fourth street.-the fire
boys have been kept quite busy answer
ing the calls for their services.
The second alarm was about II O'Clock
on Sunday morning, when an old ware
house near the ice plant belonging to
w. r. Bish was so badly damaged by
fire that no attempt will be made to re-
pair it. The building was partly filed
with baled hay and also contained Mr..
Bish's jitney. With the exception OF
the seat cushion the latter is Just as
good as new," but the hay was SO badly
scorched that Mr.. Bish took S. for what
was left. No insurance.
The next alarm was about 3 O'Clock
on Monday morning, when the depart
ment was called to the Pat Tuohey res
idence on West Chestnut avenue. This
fire occurred in the home that recently
suffered from the fire fiend and it was
unoccupied while being repaired. The
last fire damage is estimated at $500.
During the high wind on Wednesday
afternoon still alarm called the fire
department to South Thirteenth street
where they quelled blaze of unknown
origin in the dry weeds and leaves upon
some vacant lots.

BARB WIRE FENCE
Causes Serious Damage to Little
Daughter of Lafayette Farmer

Daughter of Lafayette Farmer
One Of the strangest accidents that
The Enterprise has recently heard Of
was that which befell Mari an Smith,
the little daughter of Robert Smith,
the well-known Lafayette farmer, on
Monday evening.
During the day Mr.. Smith had erect
ed barb wire fence about portion of
the farm yard without the knowledge
of his little daughter, and while at play
in the dusk she ran into the fencing
and had her face badly torn.
At first it was feared that one of the
little girls eyes had been pierced by a
barb, but carful examination by a
physician who was hurriedly summoned
showed that the sight had not been in
jured, and latest reports convey the
good news that the little girl will not
be disfigured and will soon be about
again.

but when you're sure you've done your
best and know that you deserve a

and you will find out very soon. that

to shake the blues will be a pud but
when at work forget your play, and
put your fiddle right away. Apply
yourself with all your soul. Aim high
and strive to reach your goal. Work

when all in and tired outn don't sit
around and whine and doubt Just
get your fiddle by the gills and fill
your carcass full of thrills. II you
can't fiddle, you can walk. or read

not all have strings; they're hobbies
