INITIATED LAW NO. 5
(The Autiyivisection RilD

The health. and even the very lives
| Of the people of the state Of Colorado
are menaced by this proposed law
while Colorado's great live stock in
dustry will receive serious blow il
it passes.
The proposed law is the concern of
every citizen of the state, and not the
exclusive concern of one profession or
one class, because. every man, woman
and child will be affected BY its pro-
visions if it passes.
Aimed directly, perhaps. as is
claimed. at the medical profession, its
ultimate effect will be to deprive man
kind in Colorado Of Indispensable safe
guards of life itself and of the means
es and in epidemics.
Written with the purpose of appeal
ing TO the natural sympathy for dumb
animals, it may attract the votes of
many people unless they are fully IA
malisr with its real purpose and the
extent to which its provisions will
reach out and directly affect them.
If understood by the people of the
State Of Colorado. it cannot carry.
Attempts have been made to pass
similar measures in the national con-
Eress, in California, in Massachusetts,,
in New York. in Pennsylvania. and
elsewhere. In every case the efforts
failed. Two years ago in California q
similar proposed law WAS defeated by

PEST PEOPLE ON EARTH TO-DAY
CELEBRATE 54TH ANNIVERSARY

cal district The "cork trick" was
their initiation ceremony. A proup
Of Corks would bring in a candidate.
who was assessed fifty cents. This
was taken by Charles Vivian, and
entered in pocket memorandum
book. Each "Jolly Cork" produced
La champagne cork from his pocket.
The barkeeper supplied the candi-
date with a new cork. The men lined
up IN front of the now-extinct Ameri-
can bar. Each man placed his cork
IN front of him on the bar. To the
candidate it was explained that at
the signal '"Threew of the Gone
two-three" called by the ruling
Cork, the last man to lift his cork
from the bar was "stuck for the
drinks"
The signal would be called. The
Jolly Cooks, all initiates, would sim
ply cup their hands over their corks
and leave the corks on the bar. The
candidate, with a swift swoop, al
ways would. be the first man to lift
his cork. He would also be the last
man to lift his cork. For he would
be the only man to lift his cork. He
bought the drinks.
One other law the Corks obeyed.
Any jolly Cork, meeting another Jolly
Cork, was at liberty to challenge his
brother by producing his own cork
from his pocket. If the challenged
man could not also produce a cork,
he must pay for the drinks. The
champagne cork became the insignia
of the order.
Stuart Robson, noted American &C
tor of that period, was a Jolly Cork
and the target Of deep-laid plot. It
was at Robson's wedding. AS the
actor entered the church, he found
the aisle soidly lined witHs double
rank of Jolly Corks. At the altar
awaited the minister. The organ was
playing the Wedding March. As Rob-
son started down the aisle, with the
future Mrs. Robson on his arm, every
Jolly Cork, with the precision Of an
army officer drawing sword and sa-
luting, held aloft . new and shining
champagne cork in salute,
But Stuart Robson was ready.
instantly he reached into the tail
pocket Of his dress coat, produced q
champagne cork equally new and
and marched down the aisle,
his bride on his left arm, his cork
held aloft in his right hand. History
does not tell who bought those drinkB,
But Il wasn't Stuart Robson!

upon the tablets of love and mem
ory," is Elkdom's motto.
The four cardinal principles of the
Order are "Charity-Justice- Broth
erly Love-Fidelity."

than we knew" says old "Joe" Nor
cross, only surviving charter member
And from the Great Beyond, where
those long-dead "Jolly Corks" look
down upon this earth, they probably
agree with him.
All America is familiar with the
outstanding facts of Eldom and its
insignia. Few know the identity of
the little group of men who built up
that structure point by point. The
clock face with it's hands pointing to
the hour of eleven is an integral part
of the Elk insignia. Any guest in
an Elk lodge has seen the lights flick
err out at II o'clock as the standing
toast "To Our Absent Brothers" is
drunk. How many know that George
F. Mcdonald was the man who
launched that ceremonial that has be-
come a conspicuous landmark in the
fraternity. Who knows today that
the first Elk's badge with hte noble
head of spreading antlers, the gleam-
ing star and the clock pointing to the
hour of eleven was designed by Ma
jor Burke, member of New York
lodge No. 1? Or who recalls that the
world famous Elk greeting of Hello
Bill!' was first spoken by William
Goddard of Minneapolis lodge No.

did not wish to copy the name of an
existing order.
From this trip to Barnum's Mu-
scum the committee went to the
meeting where the name of "Elks"
was chosen.
Since then the order has grown by
giant strides. 1t embraces American

In 1922, Elkdom, with gifts to
charity already totalling more than
S20,00O,O0O, stepped out of the role
of the purely fraternal organization
into the rank of one of Americas
greatest humanitarian brotherhoods.
William W. Mountain of Toledo,
Ohio, Grand Exalted Ruler of the Or

In Chicago, by Lincoln Park, over
looking Lake Michigan, the Elks are
building their $3,OOO,0OO National
Memorial to the 10000 Elks who
served the United States in the World
War, and the more than 1000 Elks
who died in that service. The build

The vote stood seven to seven, dead
locked on "Buffaloes" and "Elks."
Only a handful recall the name Of
W. L. Bowron Of New York today:
Yet it was to him that the "Elks"
owe their name. On the second bal
lot he switched his vote from "But-
falo" to elk" Vivian, in the chair,
though an ardent advocate of "Buffa-
loes," ratified the majority Of one,
and the Benevolent and Protective
Order of Elks was born.
One otoher circumstance, little
known, paved the way for the name
of "Elks." The committee charged
with selecting a name was to meet
at Broadway and Ann street, New
York. Some were tary. Others,
weary of waiting, strolled into Bar
NUNS Museum on that corner, and
wandered through the famous animal
collection.
"Bears" was suggested, but dis
carded as animals of few inviting
traits, coarse, brutal and morOse.
Beavers" were brought up as eX-
amples of industry, but cast aside as
too destructive. Foxes" suggested,
were voted down as too cunning and
crafty. A large moose head attracted
but was at last turned
down. Then an Elk's head, with
spreading antlers, met with
general approval and divided honors
with "Buffaloes," which Vivian had
strongly, but which half
the committee opposed because they
