LOCAL ELKS WILL HONOR
mel cory OF THEIR DEAD
SUNDAY AT ELKS HOME
Impressive Special Services, to Which All Are
Cordially limited

AS in former years.. Flagstaff Elks
lodge will have special services on
the first Sunday in December in
memory of their departed brothers.
These services are always beauti-
full and impressive. The special rit-
ual work, the solemn calling of the
roll of those who have gone before,
the special music appropriate to the
solemn occasion, the oratory-these
are distinguishing features of these
annual services.
Flagstaff Elks lodge has an envi-
able record of public spirit, benevo-
lence and downright charity. Those
of the members who have gone on
helped to build the lodge and its spir-
it of charity, justice, brotherly love
and fidelity. All of them were sin
cerely mourned here, not only by their
brother Elks, but as well by many
others. The roll is impressive and as
one reads it it cannot but sadden as
well as bring to mind pleasant rem
iniscences in connection with this OF
that particular one.
This is the roll of departed Elks:

The club winning the first game has

If Moriarty goes to st. Louis and

Washington, Chicago and Detroit all
are well able to take care Of them

The chances are that Sisler will go
to another team and help put it in
the pennant race. Cleveland would
be the most dangerous team in the
league in 1927 if Sisler joined the
Indians and could play first base as
he did. The Athletics could use him,
although they are in greater need Of
a shortstop and a second baseman.
