.ELkS HAD A ROYAL Time
Dubuque Entertained the Iowa Elks
in Convention Last Week in
Grand Style.
Allen Wise. Ex.COunty Recorder and
the Biggest Little Elk in De-
corah Was Featured in
Dubuque Papers :

About forty-five members of the
the DEBORAH lodge of Elks went to
Dubuque last Tuesday to attend a
state convention and they came home
singing the praises of Dubuque and
her excellent people. The boys say
they never visited a city in their
lives where they received more hos
pitality than they did in Dubuque
They say the program was one Of the
best they ever attended and was
carried out in a manner that reflect
ed great credit on the Elks and peo-
pie of Dubuque. Brotherly love was
in evidence everywhere and not a
dull moment was spent. The feed
put up for them at OMera's Garden
was the finest that skilled epicureans
could produce.
A number of the Elks who belong
to the DEBORAH lodge living at CAL
mar and North McGregor were also
in attendance. Ernie Bergman,
mentioned in an article from the
Dubuque paper as being from Decor
all is manager Of the Calmar Hotel
He weighs about 26O pounds and he
and Allen Wise were the big hits
of the convention. Others from De-
corah who were in attendance, be-
sides the drum corps, which by the
way made a big hit also. were DR..

Below is an extract from the Du-
buque Telegraph Herald:
The DEBORAH outfit brought along
vaudeville show, a drum corps, and
as Brotherly a bunch of Bills as
you'd find in a thousand years. AS
an instance of their brOtherly love,
look at Ernie Bergman and Allen
Wise. It seems Allen managed TO get
a cot at the Julien, which was, of
course, perfectly natural, as he
couldn't get anything else, Now Al
len could comfortable afford to sleep
on cot without any immediate dan
ger of tying himself in knots, as has
only about three feet long and pro-
portionately broad So every little
thing was progressing smoothly when
little Ernie Bergman rolled out of
the elevator with this: ALLEN, Is
there room for one more in your
room?"
Allen and Ernie, by the way, are
the headliners on the DEBORAH vaude-
vile bill. They offered a little sketch
entitled "Jess Willard and His Spar
ring partner" Speaking of sparring
partners, Ernie could do worse than
take trip to Toledo himself. If size
counts anything in the Willard camp,
and we are led to believe that it does.
Ernie would get away like a case of
High Life in August.
Even with their universally recog-
nized histrionic ability Allen and Err
ME were given a run for first honors
in the vaudeville league. "Cooney'

the stove-pipe lid, cerise complexion,
etc., could shake the shimmy with
any Of them, not barring Mrs. Yer
non Castle. His demonstration ;, of
classic solo dancing in front of the
Elk's building this morning was well
received. The dance, ITO the Pic
MIC" was his niftiest number.

Lecture Was Postponed.

The lecture on 1.-The Irish Cues
ton" by Rev. Father Lenihan, of
Waterloo, advertised for the Grand
last Sunday evening was postponed,

Lenihan to reach DEBORAH that even
ing. The lecture will be given on

HOME SERVICE.
OF RED CROSS
DISCUSSED

Mrs. Graham, field agent for the
Gulf Division of the Red Cross, New
Orleans Chapter, was in Covington,
yesterday, and made a talk before
the executive committee of the Red
Cross here relative to the mainte-
nance of the Home Service branch OF
the order. She will talk in Abita
Springs this afternoon at O'Clock.
The funds available for the local
branch of this department is $4,000,
enough to maintain it for a year.
After that the work would have to
be supported locally and would re-
ceive some assistance from the funds
raised by roll call solicitations. The
merit Of the service rendered in this
department is so evident that it is
thought it will be strongly support
perienced.
Hon. F. J. Heintz, juvenile officer,
strongly urges the adoption of the
service and the com bining with Its;
other work the care of dependent
juveniles that now remain uncared
for because the law has made no
provision for them. He made a
strong appeal for the care of the
Juveniles before the Executive Board
Yesterday. He has personally cared
for and found homes for quite a
mum Der of them, but it is beyond
reason to expect that he may be able
to provide for all.
