spontaneously, local lodges of the Elks
began getting in touch with local Sal
walton Army leaders.
See here the Elks would say, in
effect: You PEOPLE are doing mighty
good work You need money. We
want to help. We can't go over there
and bake doagnnuts for the boys In
the trenches, but, by thunder. we can
help you to get the money you need!
How about it,"
Eiks Help Army.
Then the time came, in the spring
Of 1918. when the Salvation Army
needed five million dollars and simply
had to make drive to get it, By
that time the tie between the Elks
and the Salvationists was pretty well
established
Reports had been coming in to Sal
walton Army headquarters about the
help the Elks were giving. And the
leaders of the drive were nervous.
They didn't know much about raising
money on a wholesale basis. They'd
always managed to paddle their own
canoe. They didn't have a great pub
licity department They didn't have
any of the machinery the Red Cross
and the Y. M. c. A. had
So they went to the Grand Lodge of
the Elks. And the Elks, who had
been hearing from their local lodges,
greeted them with enthusiasm. In
more than fifty cities the Elks took
complete charge of that drive-nota-
bly, in Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Kan
sas City, and ST Louis
They paraded the streets; they got
up circuses. They left the Salvation
Army people, who really had enough
to do with their regular work, free,
and guaranteed the money
They saw us through" says Colonel
w. A. Mcintyre, who is at the head of
the army's New York office. Were
still lite dazed by all they did for
us. We never could have got the
money we did without them. We
couldn't ask them for anything they
didn't give us. Usually we didn't
have a chance to ask. They took hold
Of our drive magnificently. There
aren't words strong enough in praise
of the Elks."

Telephone RATES
ARE UNCHANGED
PENDING RULE.
Rate Increases Held in Abey-
ance in Indiana as Result Of
Commission Protest.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 21.-In an OF.
fetal dispatch received yesterday
from Washington the Public Service
Commission was informed that the
order of Postmaster General Burleson
fixing long distant telephone rates in
Indiana. which were to have gone into
effect at midnight last night, would be
suspended pending the outcome OF the
commissions injunction suit filed In
Federal Court here. The communica.
reads:

I'll the matters are adjudicated in In
diana"
The Indiana commission was the
first state regulatory body to bring &C
ton In the Federal Court to restrain
the telephone companies from impos-
Ing the new toll and long distance tel
ephone rates ordered by the post
master general.
AS a result of a conference OF the
chairman OF public utilities commits
sions Of several central states at Chi.
cago last week the Indiana commits
sion, through the attorney general
filed an Injunction suit in the local
Federal Court to restrain Indiana tcle-
phone companies from recognizing the
new toll rates. Judge Anderson, sit.
ting temporarily in Chicago, issued a
Temporary restraining order Satur
day, forbidding the American Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company and
the Indianapolis Telephone Company
from adopting the new rate.
Heavy Increased Delayed.
II was explained by the Indiana
commission that the proposed toll
charges of the Federal department
would mean increased charges, in
many instances, Of from 20 to 20 per
cent. The commission took the posi-
ton that 1t had been vested by statute
with the power to regulate all tolls
and charges made by public utilities

department in attempting to Ak rates

OVERRIDE the rights OF the state. In
the Injunction complaint filed it was
tointed out that the proclamation OF

cure to assist in winning the war did
not extend to the Federal government

Fail in Efforts to
Redistriict Indiana

Efforts of certain representatives In
Congress to obtain a reapportionment
of Indiana counties for congressional
districts will be shattered by the gen
eral assembly, whose Republican mem
bers oppose the scheme.
One Of the reapportionments would
have added a strong Democratic
county to the Fourth and to the Sixth
district Representative Elliott fought
the movement in Washington and serv-
ed notice that if an attempt were made
to bring about this change, he would
fight the measure in the legislature.
II seems to be the plan of the Re-
publicans to wait until 1921 when the
greater growth of population in north
ern Indiana will make fasible both
congressional and legislative reappor.

HOW ELKS HELPED SALVATION
ARMY RAISE WAR MONEY

isfy the Elks-the half million or more
indivual Elks, scattered all over the
country In their local lodges. They
knew the part their order was play.
ing. They were proud of that. But
the two base hospitals, the big recon
struction hospital in Boston, all the
other things the Grand lodge has done
and was doing, didn't give the individ
ual Elk much chance to feel that he
himself was helping. After all, what
did paying an assessment of a dollar
or so amount to! 1t amounted to a
lot in the aggregate, CT course. and the
Elks knew that, and were glad. But
they want to do more.
They did! No one knows just how
the association between the Elks and
the Salvation Army began. But il
grew into one OF the big things Of the
war
The Salvation Army went to work
quietly and without any talk, as soon
as we began mobilizing our new arm
les. The Salvation Army isn't rich
1t HASN'T any machinery for collecting
money. And still it succeeded in car
rying on it's work for year without
making an appeal to the country for
money. Haven't you wondered some
times how that was accomplished!
How it was that the Salvation Army
alone of all the big war relief bodies
that were working with the troops in
France, didn't come dunning you?
Gave Up Club Rooms.
Well, the Elks are responsible, in a
great measure. Elks seemed to hear
more about the Salvation Army and
it's work from the first than the gcner
al public did. One reason was, mag
inc, that the war crowded the Elks
out of house and home so Thoroughly
They gave up their clubhouses and
their lodge rooms to the Red Cross all
ever the country, you know.
Sometimes they kept one room in a
big building for their meetings; some.
times they just borrowed a room when
they had to have it.
The Elks are a convivial lot. They
knock around good deal. And they
are the sort wac have on tap, always,
a good deal of sympathy for the under
dog.
They couldn't help seeing a good
deal Of what was being done for war
relief. And they seem to have seen
the Salvation Army as a sort of Gin
derella. So, here and there. quite

Night School Notes

The class in Americanization still
needs more pupils, according to P. c.

says Richmond people are missing a
fine opportunity to learn something
about American citizenship. There are
also chances in this class to learn
more about the English language and
how to increase the vocabulary.
The foreign language classes seem
to be more popular than the classes
in the English language. The Span.
