Philadelphia Lodge No. 2, was chart- cred. In 1874 there were but two lodges, with a combined membership of 200; in 1882 there were fourteen lodges, with a membership of ,806; in 1892 the order was composed of P lodges with a membership of 18,- 424. Now in 1920 the fraternal chain has more than 400 links, each re- presenting a city or town from the Atlantic to the Pacific Coast, and from the Great Lakes to the Cuff of Mexico. The total membership is about 100000.
 Prior to the year 1890, all of the sessions of the Grand Lodge were held in the city of New York. For several years immediately prior to that time, a vigorous contest was waged to make the Grand Lodge migratory, so that it's meetings might be held in different places. One thing that materially assisted in bring ing about the reformation that made the Grand Lodge migratory was the annual reunions of the member ship of the Order held during the four or five years preceding 1890. These meetings were held in Cincin- ati, 1886; Detroit, 1887; Cincinnati. 1888, and Pittsburg, 1898, and then the first session of the Grand LAoge under the amendment of the consti- tuition making the Grand Lodge mi gratory, was held in the city of Gle veland in 1S90 and at the same time and place the annual reunion of the Order was held. Since that time it has always been customary to nave the annual reunion of the Order held at the same time and place as the Grand Lodge session.

 Charity, Justice, Brotherly Love and Fidelity are the watchwords of the Order and Humanity the keynote.

ORDER OF ELKS
 IS NOW FIFTY
 FOUR YEARS OLD

On February 10, 1921, the Benevo- lent and Protective Order of Elks of the United States of America was tlfty-four years existent. In honor of the occasion many lodges held special social and anniversary ses- slons, and the memory will long lin- ger in Elkdom because of notable achievements of the order during re- cent years.
 The B. P. o. Elks, organized by a small group of actors, has grown and developed into one of the largest and most influential fraternal organi7a- tions in the world, enjoying a mem bership of 100000 of the most vide awake men in the country.
 The cardinal principles are Chari- ty, Justice, Fidelity and Brotherly Love, and in spirit it is democratic recognizing no particular class or creed. It has no ranks and title it is no respector of persons. All EIks are equal within the portals of an Elk Lodge-the rich and poor, the proud and the humble, the learned and the unlearned, the distinguished and the obscure, are all exactly equal and alike, differing only as one may excel another in loving the good and beautiful and in performing no-

ENTHUSIASM.

Enthusiasm is contagious. When you meet Q man who is genuinely op- timistic, overflowinq with confidence you absorb something of this aspect whether wittingly or not, and, in turn, when you meet your friends with the same spirit of good will cheerfulness and enthusiasm you in- spire similar emotions, to the degree that the sentiment expressed by you are the reflection of your own fe l. ings. It is worth while to cultivate enthusiasm. It is an influence that may not be overestimated. It IS possession that contributes appreei- ably to your enjoyment of good health and the things which are worth while in life. It lightens the perform ance of labor immeasurably, and in the accomplishment of results is stimulant that has no equall-Ex- change.

articles and twenty-one rules and re- gulations. The committee which pre- pared the document was composed of George F. Mcdonald, chairman; Will liam Sheppard, Charles Vivian, E. x. Platt and Thomas G. Riggs.
 The able manner in which these gentlemen performed the duties as signed to them will be best realized when it is remembered that although the growth of the order has render ed necessary number of changes and additions, the constitution as adopted in 1868 is substantially the basis of Elk Jurisprudence today
 In 1870 the first movemen: to start "a second or branch lodge of this order was started amongst certain professionals in Philadelphia, and in order that this might be done in New York Lodge. on January l, 1871. adopted resolution providing for the formation of a Grand Lodge, and thereafter a charter was obtained from the State of New York. March 10, 1871, incorporating the Grand Lodge of the Benevolent and Pr3tec- tive Order of Elks of New York. and on the same day the Grand Lodge legally incorporated, issued a charter ta New Work Lodge No. 1, B. P. 0. F., thus converting the original or ganization and lodge into the first subordinate lodge of the Grand Lodge. March 10, 1871, therefore is the le- gal commencement of the Grand Lodge, and also the beginning of New York Lodge No. 1, as existing by that distinctive title under charter of the Grand Lodge.

 The new organization was very popular from it's inception and soon the parlor of the boarding house was too small to accommodate the mem bers, who met every Sunday after noon. New quarters were secured at No. F Delacy street The Jolly Corks' grew in numbers rapidly, and 1t was here that reorganization was effected, and the name changed to that of Benevolent and Protective Order of the Elks This important event took place on Sunday, February 10, 1868.
 A committee was selected to give an appropriate name to the organiLa- tion.
 Some of the membks thereof hap pening to meet at "Barnum's Old Museum,' were favorably struck by the appearance of a fine elk's head which was suspended in a consoicu- out place. In looking up the history of the elk, the chairman became deeply impressed by the description l of the animal in Goldsmith's Ami mated Nature" and Buffin's Natural History where it is described as I"Fleet of foot and timorous of doing wrong, avoiding all combat. except Tn fighting for the female, and in defense of the young and heir. .ees and weak His researches and re- III silence, to the proud spirit that suffers ln secret, fearing more the blush of shame that comes of ask Ing than the bangs of hunger, may l feel that never will it's sore need. nor the manner of it's alleviatfon, be pub llshed to the world, and that the faults, the frailties, the necessities and the help extended will remain a sacred confidence, never to be di- vulged. And this fully explains the reason, namely, that the name of a brother who, overtaken by advers ty or misfortune, having received ail or relief. shall never be divulged.
 In the year 1867, Charles Algernon, ! ' clergyman, arrived in New York City He was a ballad singer" and two port confirmed the committee in their choice of the name of "Elks" for the organization.
 The elective officers titles in the new order were as follows: Right Honorable Primo. First Second and Third Deputy Primo; Honorary Sec retary Treasurer, Tiler.
 The first constitution Of the "Grand Lodge of the Benevolent and Pro- tective Order of Elks," organized Feb ruary 10, 1868, gives Charles Viy- ian's name as presiding officer. The list of officers for the year 1868, given therein, was Right Honorable Primo, Charles Vivian; First Deputy Primo, R. S. Steirly; Honorable Sec retary, William Carleton; Treasurer, H. Nandermark; Tiler, William Shep- pard.

 The founders of the Order had nc conception of the scope and nossi. bilities of the present organization They never dreamed of it's greatness but they are entitled to and deserv. ing of every credit for sowing the seeds that have produced such mag. nlficent and gratifying results. They "builded wiser than they knew
 Born of Brotherly Love, and aim ing to promote the brotherhood of man, the Order is designed to offer its members the certainty of warm hearts and welcome hearts in the various cities to which business or pleasure may summon them. One can well realize the satisfaction of finding in every city little circle of kindred minds; kind. appreciative and intelligent friends; social spirit who, linked together by mystic tie extend the right hand of fellowship and greet you with the kindly smile of brotherhood.
 1t is needless to refer to the we'll known generous charity of this Or der whenever occasion demands its aid. Scarcely can the cry of distres echo in the air, the wall of misfortune, or the moan of despair summon as- slstance, the Elks tender the best eff forts to aid and relieve, questioning neither country nor creed, doctrine nor belief

At the same house were numbec of actors and musicians, and in the win er of 1867G8 the male boarders of the place met Sunday afternoon and spent the time in social intercou ,se.
 At one of these convivial gather- ings Vivian proposed that a perma : nent social organization be formed. The suggestion was favorably acted upon and early in the winter of the same year the organization was formed and called the Jolly Corks. Vivian was the first Imperial Cork as the presiding officer was officqil- ly designated. The organization was patterned after the "Buffaloes," so- cial order popular in England, to which Vivian belonged The original members of the Jolly Corks' were Charles A. S. Vivian, Richard E.
