B. P. @. Elks Called
Greatest Fraternal
Order in America
Its Origin and Purpose

At the institution of the Order.
which was in the year 1868, it was
composed of a few gentlemen of the
theatrical profession, drawn together
for the purpose Of social intercourse.
For some time this small band OF
brothers met and enjoyed the rela-
tons of fellowship ana close friend
ship engendered by their profess
slsnai associations, and this was the
foundation of Elkdom. From the
small coterie of men thus linked to-
gether sprang into being the now
widespread and powerful Order of
Beneyolence and Charity, with lodges
in over thirteen hundred cities in the
United States.
Born of brotherly love and aiming
to promote the brotherhood Of man.
it IS designed 70 offer to its mem
bers the certainty of warm hearts
and welcome hearths in the various
cities to which business or pleasure
may call them. Well can we realize
the satisfaction of finding in every
city circle of kindred minds kind,
appreciative and Intelligent friends.
social spirits. who. linked together
by the mystic tie. extend to you the
right hand of fellowship and greet
you with the kindly smile Of brother
hood.
An idea. TO some extent, IL preva-
I lent that none but members OF the
theatrical profession are eligible for
membership in the Order. Thus it
is that the reputable portion of the
nrofesS,op are nearly all members
! but on the rolls Of the lodges will
j, be found the names Of statesmen,
journalists. bankers. merchants.
. state and city officials. Judges. iaw-
yers. and members of the medical
profession and hundreds of the
brightest lights in the world Of art.
literature and music.
The social relation. the oppor-
tunity to bring the brothers together
and thereby gain closer conception
of the true claims for consideration
at their hands IS only one object of
the Order OF Elks. Brotherly love
and Justice are not the brightest
jewels in the crown of worthy
member: Charity shines forth prom
inentIy in all their actions, the bea-
con light Of prudence guiding them
from the shoals of reckless liberal
ity and the quicksands of prodigal-
ity. To refer to the generous char
ity of the Order IS almost needless.
Scarcely does the cry of distress
echo on the air. the vail of mis-
fortune or the moan of despair sum-
mon assistance. ere the Elks tender
