Order of Elks, had it's birth. Its
earliest beginnings were NOT preten-
tious, but it spread rapidly because
of the splendid helpfulness which
was the basis of its being. One Of
the earliest teachings Of this order
was the beautiful practice of ,rernem-
bering the absent brother Out Of
this inspiring sentiment there arose
the practice of remembering also
those who are 'eternally absent
Patriotism Is Cornerstone
"'The order of Elks is distinctly
American order. An Elks' lodge
cannot be organized where the Amer
lean flag is not the recognized en-
! blem of sovereignty. No one can be-
come an Elk who is not an American
| citizen; nor one who does not be-
lieve in the existence of a Supreme
Being. Patriotism is it's cornerstone,
but patriotism is quality of citizen
ship which cannot be made the ex-
elusive possession of any class or
creed. Recognizing this. vital fact
of patriotic brotherhood, we ask
neither creed nor political affilia-
lions of those who would become
members of our order. To one and
all the common test of supreme
Americanism is applied, and any de-
cent citizen who meets the test and
is imbued with the high principles
and ideals of our order is admitted.
In these unsettled days, my
brothers, no higher claim to useful
service or distinction could be made
than to assert that our order is typi-
cally American and that the preser-
walton of our free institutions and
the defense of law and order is the
fundamental doctrine of our creed.
Happily, the cloud of war which for
SO long threatened to engulf the
world has passed.; but for the man
who loves his American citizenship,
whose spine thrills at the sound of
our national anthem, and whose
pulse quickens at the sight of the
American flag floating unchallenged
in the air of freedom, there is still
a work to perform whose solemnity
and importance are as great as the
fateful tasks of war itself.
Must Defeat Disloyalty
r 1.-The lurid flames Of war had
scarcely faded from the eastern sky
ere we became painfully conscious of
the fact that the hydra-headed de-
non of disloyalty had taken advan-
tage of the disturbed conditions
which the war had wrought to plant
itself in our midst, and that it was
mated by the thinly-veiled hope
that, in the confusion incident to
the period Of readjustment following
le war, it would be able to create
a condition Of chaos in which the
wrecking of our governmental insti-
tutions could be accomplished. The
realization of this fact came as an |
electric shock to loyal Americans
everywhere, but, for members Of our
order, it has served as call to duty
20 less insistent than the call which
came when the earth was rocked |
with war and liberty seemed totter-
ing to it's death.

ground of our noblest thought. For
members of our order this ideal man,
whatever other qualities he may or
may not possess, must always have
within him the abiding soul of real
American.
No Divided Allegiance
with head erect and with unfal-
tering eye, he must stand first, last
nd always for the United States OF
lmercia. For him there can be no
divided allegiance. In his country
he idler and the social Stacker have
o recognized place, rank does not
de in wealth, in birth or in posi-
ton, and. lasting public honor is
never won except through unselfish
public service. Here government Is
CT and by and for the people.
"For him who would amend the
constitution by overturning it, and
who would invoke class conscious
ness and class hatreds, bloodshed
and riot, and revolution, to accom-
plish his destructive purposes, this
ideal American this exemplar of our
order, has neither sympathy nor toll
erance. AS against him and his
kind, the true Elk feels instinctively
that great challenge which calls men
to the defense of home and country
and loving dindred.
Called to Battle for Right
Between them there is and must
be implacable war, war which can
end only in the acknowledged su-
premacy Of that high order Of pat
riotism for which an Elk contends.
This is a battlefield whereon the
right must prevail, for with this evil
there can be no compromise and to
it there can be no surrender. But
your true American is not content
with merely believing in his country
and its constitution or in defending
them against assaults by their. enc
mics.
"He rightly insists that it is the
duty of our public schools, our col
leges and universities, to teach how
great thing it is to love and de-
fend this land of freedom, to teach
the meaning and purpose, the in
spiration and the hope, of it's con-
stitution, that great instrument es-
tablished by the divinely guided ar
chitects of freedom on this CONT
nent, the instrument which Gladstone
called the most wonderful work
ever struck off at a given time by
the brain and purpose of man.

NIT of another year and look in
retrospect upon the events which the
passing cycle of time has brought
within the narrow focus of our
vision. Since last this lodge met in
honor of its departed dead the Grim

river and to the bosom of their God.

shall know them no more. We call
them and they do not respond. At
