VIRGINIA ELKS ENDORSE
UNIVERSITY or VIRGINIA
FOR MEDICAL SCHOOL site

Charlottesville, Va, Aug. 17.-Vigorous
resolutions protesting against the re-
moyal OF the medical school to Rich
mond and the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the
University OF Virginia were passed by
the Virginia State Reunion Associa.
ton Of the B. P. o. Elks. representing
some ten thousand members OF their
order and citizens Of the common
wealth, at their meeting in Chariottes-
vile last week. The resolutions were
introduced by Fred W. Harper, OF
Lynchburg, former Exalted Ruler OF
the National Order
The Elks equipped and financed
Base Hospital No. II, which was or
ganized and recruited at the Univers.
ity of Virginia, and which made q
splendid record during Its service in
France.
The resolutions follows:
Whereas the Virginia State Reunion
Association Of the B. P. o. Elks com.
prises the subordinate lodges OF the
Order of Elks n this State and rep.
resents a membership OF nearly ten
thousand loyal and patriotic Ameri-
cans and citizens of Virginia; and
Whereas. the Association and its
membership in Virginia are not only
interested in all that concerns the
welfare of the State and its institu-
tons, but feel a peculiar interest In
the Medical School of the University
of Virginia. whose splendid Base Hos.
pital Unit, No. II, which made such
magnificent record in the World War,
was equipped and financed by ths Or.
der OF Elks; and
Whereas, in the opinion Of the AS
ISOLATION it would be most unwisc to
disrupt the unity of the University
organization by removing any of its
schools from the seat OF the CniTers-
ity Itself;
Now, therefore. Be 1t Resolved by
the Virginia State Reunion Associa-
ton of, the B. P. o. Elks, in annual
session assembled:
l. That it opposes most vigorously
the proposal to remove the University
Medical School TO Richmond or to any
other city;
2. That such dismemberment OF
the University would. IN the opinion
of this Association. be disastrous to
the institution ard would impair Its
usefulness and prestige to q degree
beyond calculation;
3. That the members OF the Order
Of Elks in Virginia are urged in al
appropriate ways 10 endeavor to pre-
vent the proposed removal of the Uni
versity Medical School, as an act COM
parable with the act OF the Order in
equipping and financing its Base Hos.
pital Unit, No II, and as definite
service TO the University and the State
o, Virginia

PLENTY OF PROOF.
From People You know-From Alex

The greatest skeptic can hardly fail
to be convinced by evidence like this.
1T is impossible to produce better
proof of merit than the testimony Of
residents of Alexandria of people
who can be seen at any time. Ask
your neighbor! Read the following
case of it:
C. f. Davis, fireman, truck and
engine company No. l, Alexandria,
says: 81 have used Doan's Kidney
Pills off and on for a good many
years and they have always given me
wonderful relief Ny trouble was
