ELKs.

At the conclusion of the pitch tour nament which the New London lodge of Elks held during the winter menths it was found that the sum of money realized amounted to sFS.S9. The teams met on every Tuesday evening in the card room at the Elks home on Washington street, and a great deal
 of friendly rivalry existed between the opposing teams.
 It has been the custom to collect .fcrfeits from the members of the
 teams during tlle progress Of the games. Every time q man or his partner failed to make his bid he was forced to "ante- up' a small amount of change. The money thtis acquired went toward the banquet with which
 the tournament has been wound lsp
 The players lock forward to the ba-1-
 quet as being the. cFowning idea of g
 general good time. The banquet, ir past years, has been held in the hal at the local lodge rooms, and an at tractive entertainment programme has always been arranged. But this year is a year of war-s year of sacrifice. The Elks have al- ready turned over a part of theil building to the naval authorities, an6 have put all their kitchen utensils al the disposal of the navy men,
 When the subject of holding the annual pitch banquet came up, the members decided to ferego the wholc
 affair. Despite the fact that the ban. quet and the awarding Of the prizes
 has always furnished one of the years jolliest affairs, t was decided to droI the plan ard give the money for some other more worthy cause. The ides of using the money for smokes fol | the boys in. the trenches was brough up, and it was unanimously adopted.
