Aid School Children

This fund will be administered
without regard to lodge utilization,
being designed for general aid for
any one in need. The problem OF
caring for school children without
proper clothing or food especially is
acute.
The demand for help Is recog-
nized by the lodge as being urgent
d. with the approach Of winter, along
with considerable unemployment,
and the moving to suburban terri
tory of persons out of work in the
city.

The Railroads Carry
TraffiC-0nd Taxes

Every taxpayer has . direct
Interest in the preservation Of
railway transportation.
The railroads carYa substantial
part Of the general tax burden.
Loss of patronage in1Pairs their
ability to bear that burden.
The railroads pay for their own
roadways and pay taxes on them.
The roadways used by other
methods of transportation are
provided by the taxpayers and
are untaxed.
In some communities railway
taxes constitute more than half
the support of public schools. In
some others there are abandoned
railway lines which cannot be
taxed.
Taxpayers ought to think twice
before denying their patronage to
the railroads. Choosing trans
portation is equivalent to voting
on taxes.
Constructive criticism and sug-
gestions are invited.

EIkS' Fraternity Is Church
to Pop June After so
Years of Service.

1.-THE Elks fraternity is my church
and Lodge IS my child"
This is the way George w. (Pop)
June feels about lodge work after
fifty years. He founded Indianapo-
lis Elks lodge No. 10 fifty years ago,
and will help celebrate its Golden
Jubilee anniversary this year.
June, one of the few living char
ter members, went to Broadway
some years ago and became we'll
known theatrical manager. His in
terest in amusement led him into
the circus, theatrical and variety
world.
This contact had something to do
with the lodge first being comprised
mainly of men connected with the
theatrical profession. That was back
in 1880. Eighty members were pres
ent at the first meeting in Park
theater.
Lodge Has 1,4OO Members
Now Lodge 10 has 1 400 members,
and has OH its roster names of men
who have held the orders most i'm
portant national offices.
And Pop" June still is nurturing
his child. His desk is loaded with
Elks magazines and important fra
ternal papers. He is a restaurateur
by profession, but lodge worker
by choice.
If you ask present officials of
Lodge 10 about plans for the golden
jubilee anniversary, they'll probably
start in by telling you about what
Pop has done.
The lodges charity fund was
started with proceeds from benefit
performance of H srlys Ministries
in the English opera house in 1888.
Pop" helped stage it.
Later, in 1902, the first Elks or
phanS' outing was held at Fairview
park and Pop was chairman of
that committee. It was Pops in
spiration that caused the grand
lodge to adopt the Stars and Stripes
for use in ritualistic services and
made the orders emblems the flag,
the Bible and the antlers.
Honored by Grand Lodge
At Atlantic City in 1895, William
E. English, past grand exalted ruler:
Joseph T. Tanning and "Pop" June
promoted a reconciliation that saved
the Elks order. English and June
we're given honorary memberships
in the New York lodge as a result.
Another time, the grand lodge
honored Pop" by comforting the
Office Of grand tyler upon him.
Everywhere hes been, everywhere
he goes, the Elks interviewer fra
ternal influence follows him. Lodge
No. 10 always will be Pops" child.
Plans are being made for the
tiftieth anniversary celebration in
March. Other charter members of
Lodge Is still active are: Joseph
T. Tanning, manager of the Elks
magazine; John Jay Curtis, presi-
dent of Bobbs Merrill Company;
DR.. Charles Cleveland, Eugene A.
Copper and James v. Cook, treas
urer, Danville, Ind.
