While fun and entertainment are anticipated, much serious work is planned, according to Harry G. Allen of Portland, president of the state association. The state association serves as a clearing house for the 18 Elks' lodges of 'he state and the an nual convention is the time when the problems confronting: the various lodges are discussed and if possible solved. Of interest to the delegates and Elks is the election of the next presi dent. .Three men have been men tioned for the position R. Alexander of Pendleton. Tom O. Russell of Eu gene, and Dr. J. H. Rosenberg of Prlneville and member of Bend lodge. Those who are informed Insist that Mr. Alexander will the choice of the antlered herd, contending that they have information that Mr. Russell will step aside this year and accept the honor accompanying the office of first vice-president, a position which Mr. Alexander has held from the time the state association was formed. Dr. Rosenberg's candidacy is.-not taken seriously it being said that the honor of the presidency of the association must be passed about to older lodges before Bend can expect It. At all odds,- a spirited contest is anticipated, fa E. P. Mahaffey, ex alted ruler of Bend lodge, is the cam paign manager of the Bend entrant and Mahaffey Is claiming that even though Bend lodge is the youngest lodge in the state, they will show some of the older Elks a few pointers in lodge politics. Mirahf.eld is making the fight for the 1921 convention with no opposi tion developed as yet. Although some contests may develop In other offices, no candidates for the various offices have yet been announced. A caravan of automobiles carrying the delegates of Portland lodge will leave the city Wednesday afternoon for the Capital city. A special train carrying the Portland members will leave Portland Thursday afternoon. Tickets for accommodations on this rain are on sale in the secretary's office in the Portland Elks' temple. t is probable that a large number of Elks will motor to Salem each day.
