hetwoen the lodges In putting r.n the
degree work in contents and the in
fnstruct n large aifd iufluential per
the district deputies and the various
representatives returning from the
Grand Lodge served to thoroughly
intuct n lago and influential per
centage of the membership of each
lodge, to the manifest advantage of
Oregon ledges in geno::.l
Bo close was the decree content
1. ctween Med ford and Portland that
there was about one per cvnt in
favor "f Poitland, and this was due
to the superiority oT the work of the
third and fourth officers from Port
land. Report's from the Grand Lodge
showed a wonderful gain In member
ship throughout the country. Ln
Grande Lodge was one of the stib
crdjnate lodges showing the larg"st
gain in membership, considering the
population of its jurisdiction.
The fact that the Grand Lodp! of
tho order of Klks furnished several
million dollars to the Salvation Army
In additon to .the ff.O.OOO gift an
atinounced lar.t year. w:Jt made public
for the fir.it time at the Grand Lwh:e.
Shangefi in the work and proced
ure of lo.-al lodges are minor in char
ftcter. the principal one being that
house committees of lodges operating
upon the pl;;n of La Grande lodce arr

f.bjects of mu h praise from the

they ext-'iided hospitality and tool;

None of the numerous Elks who
attended from Valo, Bakor, Canyon
City, liurns, La Grande, Hcppner and
l'cndlutim lost their cars In the gar
age fire which consumed tho largest
giiraiTe in the city, a two-story brick

and concrete affair. To cars of about
thirty-five visitors were totally des
troyed and nB many moro injured.
The most reliable information showed
the tire was started by a viator light
ing a mutch lit the rear of his car,
tho fire starting ell her from ras aris
irg from his opened tank or from
grouse and ofl on tho floor. '
Bend lodge, recently organized, is
given credit by tho local delegation
as being the livest bunch at the con
vention. Medfoid and Ashland lodges
wore much in evidence, while Eu
gene, Salem, Mc.Mlnnvllle and Port
laud had very large delegation. Ev
ery lodge in the Stuto belongs to the
association and -was represented by
throe or moro delegates. llupiMiur
lodge,,one of tho smallest, had a flno
representation.
I,n (irando (lOinK to Salem.
La Grande lodge will certainly be
largely represented at Salem next
year," said Exalted Huler Eberhrrd
yesterday. "Tho fact that Salem iB on
the railroad and Is near to Portland
makes it more convenient for all of
the Elks throughout Oregon to ut
tend the State Convention. Commit
tees will soou bo unpointed and plans
begun for a record delegation from
hero to Sr.lem. Our membership now
exceeds pine hundred, and we have
sufficient talent to put up a wonder
ful ontortalnmont as La Grande's
part of the big show next year. No
effort will be spared to maintain tho
position of La Grande Lodge us one
of the largost and best In Oregon. I
appeal to all Elks and their families
to plan to mnko the trip to Salem
with us noxt year."

.If a sound mind and rntlnual hablls
do so muclt to keep the boifc' sound,
and If nature unaided can eyre iiiom
of our curable Ills, life Is a fairer ileal
for all of us than It hus suinetiAii's
seemed. Of course. It Is not so easy
as It sounds to put fear and worry,
harrowing lovo affuffTi and destructive
emotions hutrftl and envy out of
mind. But If this Is done' we must do
It ounelves. Doctors cannot do It for
us, and realisation that tho omtter of
health is largely In our own hands
mnst contribute to the wiser ordering
of life. Chicago Dally News.

When oh) Philadelphia was laid
