DIT. ELKS MAKE
FUTURE PLANS
BY DIT. EsTELLE BROWN

The Daughter Elks of Greater
Miami Temple, 769, are still jub-
flant over their anniversary cele-
bration. We are still saying,
''Thank YOU" You are wonder
full. Let us now turn our atten-
ton to the American Red Cross.
1t is very worthy of your sup
port. DIT. Ethel Gaines is much
improved and says thanks to her
temple for a nice check, cards
and beautiful flowers. We. are so
sorry that the illness of DIT.
Blanche Dean was not reported.
DIT. Dean is an active member
who always does her best to bring
the Temple up to date.
DIT. Florine Brown sent in her
registration of $12. She is a real
DIT. Elk 769. Two membership
rolls are now made up for the
Temple; list of active members
and a list of inactive. But
heard that you still have time to
get ON the active list. What does
It take to get on there? 1 guess

I saw DIT. Lorraine Sweeting.
She said she sent $1.O9 for her
lee in the dance but couldn't be
present; so did IDt. Lily Mae
lawson. DIT. Maggie Williams con-
tinues to look beautiful. What's
up?
DIT. Elizabeth Ansley knows the
score. We are sorry to learn that
DIT. Fannie Mae Motion was call
ed away because of illness. DIT.
Lee Ruth Davis was called to
Gainesville on similar incident,
but loyal to her Temple, she sent
$24.
Daughters, let us not forget
these fine things done by the
wonderful daughters but rather
keep them in your book of mem
Org. Let US discuss our future
plans.
Well, We'll all go to the church
properly regaled on the fourth
Sunday in April and listen to a
sermon by Rev. J. B. Blackwell.
Then Five Hundred Tea on
Mothers Day. There are also
other plans, such as the contest

LITIGATION committee of the Broad
wood Homemakers, and the chair
man of the committee, Mrs. Wey-
mouth Judkins, is losing no time
in getting the job started. She is,
literally, starting from tn e
ground up.
Mrs. Judkins has arranged to
have Delbert Foster, county agri-
cultural agent, and DR.. Frank L.
BentZ of the University of Mary
land come to Broadwood Manor
on Saturday morning for a lawn
management meeting. The meet
ing will be held on the grounds
of the Meredith Davidson home,
1917 Grandin Avenue, at 10 am.
DR.. Bentz will report on tests
of Broadwood soil, which have
already been taken. He will show
how soil may be tested and will
also give Information on where
to send a sample of your soil to
have it tested at no charge. On
the basis of the Broadwood soil
tests, Mr.. Foster and DR.. Bentz
will recommend the best lime and
fertilizer for our lawns. There
will be a short question and an
swer period.
We are very fortunate to have
these two experts come to us and
the Homemakers invite, in fact,
urge you to make every effort to
be there. There will be photog-
raphers and newspapermen to
cover this meeting on Saturday.
If enough OF you turn out we
will be given other demonstra-
tons and lectures on subjects
such as which trees and shrubs
are most appropriate for our lots,
how to control insects, etc. There
is also a possibility-dependin
on the amount of interest we all
show-that Broadwood Manor
will be chosen as a model commu-
nifty as a joint project for work
of the agricultural agents office
and the University of Maryland.
This is a big change for Broad

FARMERS PROBABLY will have a
larger share in the general prosperity
in the year ahead than in the past
year. Industrial activity has levelled off
in recent months and expert opinion
seems to be that minor dip will occur
in the third quarter, but the uptrend
probably will be resumed before the
year is over.
Extent of improvement in farm
prices and income will result partly
from the new farm law. A soil bank
plan and higher supports for several
farm products seems assured. Because
of expectation that the soil bank will
hold future farm production closer in
line with demand, coupled with indica-
lions of a renewed uptrend in the ma
tional economy, storage or speculative
demand for farm products probably
will give greater support in the harvest

Marketings of fed cattle are smaller

Supplies of grass cattle will increase
especially after midsummer and are
expected to run larger than last year
because of the record cattle population.
However, the number sold will depend
partly on weather and the condition
of ranges and pastures.

likely to be larger and prices lower
than last summer and fall. The record

Rev Dan McCorkle Passes Away
Grand Old Fighter For fhe Less
Fortunate Goes To His Reward

Also in 1914 he was married to
Panayiota Alexandrakis, native of
Greece who was brought to Massachu-
setts as very small girl by her par
ents.
During the early 1905 Rev. Nc
Corkle was active in politics and won
the Socialist Party of Montana's nom
ination for state superintendent of
public instruction at the convention
in Billings in 1882.
Before, during and since his six
years on the Montana Welfare Com
mission, Rev. McCorkle took great
interest in improving facilities an
care of inmates at the state institu-
tions at Warm Springs, Boulder and
Miles City. He was largely instru-
mental in securing the establishment
of a Governors Committee on Mental
Health by the then Gov. John w.
Bonner, several years ago. Almost a
decade ago he organized Montana
Walfare Association, a group COM
posed primarily of people in the "tri-
angle area" of the state, for the pur-
pose of better acquainting the public
with problems surrounding various
state custodial institutions, problems
of the aging, education, etc.
Rev. McCorkle was born March 20,
1880 in Nelson, Missouri Besides his
widow he is survived by two sons,
Antonio of Great Falls, and Hugh of
O., and four grandchildren.
Funeral services were conducted in
the Conrad Presbyterian Church, yes
