who, still living, are unable TO be with
us. / digress therefore for few
moments to call to memory those
brave brethren If this lodge who re-
spending to tfe call of patriotism have
gone forth to uphold the honor and
dignity of our country upon the blood
tained soil of Europe. From this
odge thirty eight members, our BRAY
est and best ars absent with the colors.
1t is natural that they should be there.
An unpatriotic Elk would be as much
cut of place in the order as an Atheist
in a church. 1t is an exclusive Am
erican order. One of its cardinal
tenets is Patriotism; one of the invari-
able ornaments of the lodge room, the
flag of our country.
Moreover its teachings incElcate a
broad sympathy with all humanity
and this, in itself is a world patrio-
tism. The true Elk prays with the
poet;
wherever man oppresses man
Beneath the liberal sun,
Q God be there,
Thy right arm bare.
Thy gracious win be done
1T was in this spirit that when
their country called them aud bleed
ing France and outraged Belgium ap-
pealed for aid our brothers went
forth to smite the opprcssnr. and
thanks be to God that giveth us the
victory he has been sIhtten, let US
hope, to the death.

brave absent soldier boys. God lless

No "cyele mes" on Land.

to call every violent storm a ICY

cyclone never occurs except on the
ocean, asserts weather observer. be-
cause cyclone Is q violent. whirling
storm Of great area, and no such storm
could occur on land. The s0-called
cyclones" of the West are ''torna-
does" which are whirling storms Of
great violence, but contracted In ARIA.
Tornadoes have been known whose
greatest width did not exceed 9 few
rods, and those which exceed several
miles In width are very unusual.
