is 1T OWEN?

IL 1T OWEN?
owen Is one Of the many Welsh
names that Is now usual in England
and the United States and like most
Welsh surnames It Is derived from a
popular lrst name. The Walsh did
not take last names as soon as Eng
lishm did, and whea they did they
usually simply took their own or
their fathers first name as a family
name
owen is Of KeHic derivation and
probably means sheep or lamb. How
ever 1t may mean young warrior or,
on another authority, APT to serve" &"
Doubtless The first name owen gained
It's popularity in Wales partly because
OF owen or Owain, prince OF Powys,
who died In it95, a valiant flgh ter.
and partly because owen Glendower,
last OF the Welsh patriots. the de-

ELks Plan o. Great
Christmas For Riddles

Christmas, 1920 will be big event
in Joyland for the kiddies of Imperial
valley. Members of Calexico and Ell
Centro lodges plan to entertain practi-
cally all the youngsters under ten
years of age in Imperial valley and if
the plans are carried out Brawley,
Imperial, Holtville, Ell Centro and Ca
lexico will all have Christmas trees
and regular parties where real pres
ents are distributed to all young
children.
The Riddles Christmas is perhaps
the dearest event in Elkdom. An Elk
would rather see smile beam on a
kiddie's face than to win a bet on
election. When the throngs of chill
dren with happy eXpectant faces come
to an Elks Christmas event they nev-
er go away empty handed,
The Ell Centro lodge started three
years ago to entertain the children on
Christmas day. Each succeeding year
the event has doubled in size and
scope and this year promises to ex-
ceed anything ever attempted.
This year l. A. Thomas is general
chairman for the Ell Centro lodge He
is picking committee OF, real work
.ers. This committee will announce
shortly its plans to raise the money

Gr0wth of Membership
At Satisfactory Rate

Membership applications are com.
ing in to 1925 at rate that will add
800 new names to the rolls by the
first of next April the end of the
lodge year. This means that an aver
age of ten application are being pre-
sented at every weekly meeting.
This rate of growth is highly salts
factory to Exalted Ruler c. E. Pitzer
and the rest of the officers of 1926 as
well as to the membership in general
No "drive' is on but the applica-
tiOns are the natural result of the de-
sire of red blOoded Americans to join
in the magnificent work that is con-
stantly being done by this order along
patriotic and charitable lines.
When the honest-to-goodness men
of Imperial valley who are not Elks
take the trouble to note the big things
the Elks put over every year and the
channels in which the activities of the
order are always directed they can
Imperial Valley press., 1920-10-30

not help but experience desire to
have part in thence the applica-
tions.
Calexico lodge, which was organic
ed but six months ago, is experiencing
the same handsome rate of growth
and Exalted Ruler d. L. Ault with his
able corps of officers to assist him, is
doing the things that keep. up the
name and reputation of Elkdom.
Ell Centre now has over As 0active
live members. The total will likely
reach the 750 mark and possibly more
by the first of next April.
CaleXico has 125 fine members, hav-
ing increased from so since Organiza-
tion, a growth in six months of 100
per cent Calexico will have over 200
when the roll is called next April.
All of which is good for Elkdom in
Imperial valley. The good material is
here and every time good name is
added there is added new strength
to the order.

for the Kiddies' Christmas. The sale
of candy, gum and popcorn at the per-
formance of Purple Flashes by the
Yellow Dogs" will net neat sum no
doubt. The money made by the show
goes into the regular charity fund and
is not meant for the Kiddies' Christ
mas fund. A big "jinks" is on the
program that will help some"
The Elks Ladies Club has already
volunteered to cooperate in every way
possible to help raise the money and
will likely conduct doll booths, fancy
work sales and the like to help swell
the fund for the kiddies. For the en-
tire valley fund of perhaps $2500
will be needed. 1t, therefore is a big
effort. Toys and candies cos ia lot of
money but the kiddies of Imperial
valley MUST have abe best there is.

Limiting the Right to
Strike

Senator Poindexter has intro
duced an anti-strike bill which
makes felony of any attempt to
interfere. or to persuade others to
interfere. With the movement OF
commodities on public transporta-
tion routes. The punishment IS
$4,000 fine or ten years IN prison,
or both. The Cummins railroad
bill made it unlawful to strike IN
Transportation. The section was
eliminated in the conference and
the railroad law passed without It.
If it had been left in and had be-
come law, either the |. W. w.
would not have Attempted the
present strike, or if thy had, by
this time thousands OF he leaders
and others would haze been in
Jail.
The right to strike is considered
by the laboring man As -acred, and
so it seems to have bee est mated
by the majority of Congress But
The Idaho Springs siftings-news., 1920-04-30

when strike means taking ma
ton by it's throat and starving 1T
or freezing it to death, the public
right becomes more sacred than
that of the individual
In commenting on his bill,
Senator PoindeXter said: "The
outlaw unions back ing this strike
are claiming the right to dictate
the management of the railroads.
1t is Bolshevisni, pure and SIM
pie 1t is backed up by every
anarchist and revolutionist, alien
and domestic. both of the outdoor
and parlor varieties"
Senator Thomas, of Colorado,
said: Senators were warned weeks
ago that the Plumb Plan would be
made the basis of vigorous cam
paIgn This mysterious strike is
evidently the carrying out of we'll
laid plans to that end. The strike
we now face is an organized effort
to punish the representatives of
110,O00.0OO people because they
failed to provide for government
ownership of railroads. 1t is a
part Of the propaganda financed
from Russian sources"
