 Assembling on the lawn in front of the portico of the National Home, the visitors listened to the memorial oration and witnessed the impressive ceremonies in honor of the departed Brthers.
 After the prelude by the Bedford orchestra and the opening services by officers and members of the Elks, the Rev II. C. Smith offered the in- vocation.
 Dr, E. s. Hart, Exalted Ruler of the Home Lodge, introduced Grand Exalted Ruler Wm. NJ. Abbott, of San Francisco, who presented Senator Harding in short but very ap- propriate address.
 The oratlon was delivered in the open beneath the mild sun of an In- dian summer day, from the portco of the Elk's National Home, while 5000 Elks and friends from all parts of the United States gathered on the lawn to take part in the exercises of

TWO HOUSING NIGHTS, OPENING THURSDAY NIGHT
Production Directed by Clint Draper Teens with Latest and Best in Song, Dance and Sparkling Comedy
 Given by Cast of scntillating Stars.

Uttered to the lid with mirth and

 lc will regale the admiring and gasp ing multitudes which will jam the White Grand Theatre two nights this week, beginning Thursday, with a mel ange of mIstrelsy and musical comedy which IS a riot from the tilting of the curtain to the final clang of the gong. Sparkling with catchy music, snappy dancing and all cluttered up with screaming and roaring jukes which make Ring Lardner and Joe Miller sound like the advance agencies of calamity instead of humorists, it's continuous roar which will drive the dazzled natives limp with hysteria and laugh them pink, purple and paralyzed
 Teeming with the latest song hits fresh from Broadway pastures, which the jaded Gotham theatregoers are still humming, with the most com plete and beautiful gang of costumes which have ever appeared here on the human frame, and crammed with up- to-the-split-second sketches and mono logs, the show will surpass even the previous star performances which the Bills have staged here, and they were far from the slouch brand. The first performance of this gaudy dish will be passed out Thursday night, and the anguish will be continued on Fri day night.

 Brother Harding's address, in fn}!, follows;
 'The greatest gift in Gods master bestoWal upon man IS memory" said MT. Harding in opening his mem- ofial oration. Ut IS the storehouse of everything in the life worth while.
 It fashions character and inspires oll hope. It takes all the impressions of
 human existence and by slime al chemy of love removes the dross anI makes the golden cross of faith which ,ls the rosary to every human prayer One cannot fancy life fit to live without the memory's reveal ments in fellowship and friendships; without love and attachments; with | out encouragements and endearments:
 without inspirations and the con- sclousness of achievements.

 ory's supreme place in life. Only a few years ago singular accident was reported in one of the western
 states to illustrate my statement.
 Very suddenly a prominent mining superintendent became violently in sane. To a professional conference
 1t was revealed that the patient had
 sustained an accident to his head ir his youth, and a surgical operation
 was decided upon. With great skill
 and dellcacy surgical operation was performed, relieving skull pressure upon the brain, and the person was restored to sanity, but the currents tot the brain were wholly changed, and the normal mind restored was that of the youth injured by accident. l Science had triumphed but somehow science destroyed every recollection of seventeen years, and the patient re- stored knew none of his companions. did not recognize the devoted wife who had watched at his bedside and had shared his trials and triumphs, was bereft of all his experience of his chosen work. He was human be- ing restored, but was bereft of every
 memory save that acquired prior to

 triumph of surgery, but it wiped out
 all the treasure of mind accumulated
 in the active years of a successful life,
 which had to be begun anew.
