TODAY IS DAY OF DAYS FOR HOME BOYS (Continued from npv 1.) WELCOME TO THE ELKS. All Medford rejoices at the installation of a lodge of Elks, not only glad to number among its lodges such a royal order of good fellows, but as also marking a step in the city 's growth as a metropolis. The Elks have ben aptly described as "the best people on earth," and to have a strong local lodge to welcome 6trangers and entertain members adds greatly to the at tractiveness of the city. The installation of lodge 1168, B. P. O. E., marks the culmination of a vigorous campaign of some duration, con ducted in the spirit that has made Medford famous. It was necessary to overcome strong opposition, to secure a census of the city, and to appeal to the national convention and secure special -dispensations, and the local members are to b congratulated upon the success of their ef forts. The characteristics of the Elks have been described as follows : "A profound belief in God ; a spirit of benef ifenee to the unfortunate: the cultivation of comradeship and hearty enjoyment of the good things of life ; a cherishing of the virility of existence and a cultivation of manly sen timent" - Founded in 1867, with a membership of thirteen, the order now numbers over 300.000. made up of men in all walks of life, among them the brightest and most attractive of men. It is solely fraternal and wholly uncommercial and practices a broad charity among the xinf ortunate. Hence Medford extends a royal welcome to the Elks and the many prominent members now visiting the city, and may the local lodge grow in membership and prosper ity as remarkably as has the national membership. PALMER PARTY RETURNS FROM CAMPING TRIP Honore Palmer and Mrs. Palmer, of Chicago, H. Carroll Brown and Mrs. Brown of- Baltimore, governess and children, W. A. Sumner and B. Conner of Medford returned Wednes day evening from a week's camping trip at Blue Canyon. Several deer were secured by the party, a bear shot at and another flushed, all the trout wanted were caught and a most enjoyable time was had by all. Mr. Palmer, who has extensive property interests here, will remain with his guests for a week or ten days looking after his orchards and de termining the future of 4Modoe" orchard. body to boost the gnuiliii'.' of n dis pensation for a lodge in Mod ford. Tlio dispensation was uniiiliMl. The local hoys then decided tluil September 15 was u good date for the institution of I ht bulge. Hut 1 )is trict Deputy Soviits was unable to come until October. So T K. Daniels wired J. I. I.anunis, grand exulted ruler of the Klks, who appointed A. Edgar Beard of Portland to visit Medford as a special deputy and in stitute this lodge. And today Mr. Beard is here to institute the new lodge. It is the close of a long, hard, uphill fight. In th plans for today it was first decided to have a very quiet insti tution of the lodge, but the progres sive element of the local boys 'won out and here the big time is. More credit is due perhaps to T. E. Daniels than any other local Elk for the institution of the new lodge, lie has been untiring in his efforts for the lodge and has devoted much of time and money to the organization. Others who have worked hard and are entitled to much credit are Clar ence L. Reames, Carl Hoilbroner. John S. Orth, W. II. Canon and W. S. Crowell and Dr. Qoble. The new lodge will start with some 40 charter members. In the list sign ed bv those who wished to become barter members are a number who have failed to receive their demits from other lodges and for this reason will not be charter members. Fully 100 Elks live in and near Medford and will at once .join the local lodge. The lodge will be organized tonight. Jor 30 days they will be unable to andle candidates.
