Portland has a new lunch club that Is making unprecedented strides toward the goal of the "most popular." It is formed of the antlered herd that wears the horns on coat lapels. The Portland lodge of Benevolent and Protective Or der of Elks, with the richest treasury, the finest club building west of the Mississippi river, and a membership of nearlv 1.200 men. has thrown down the vianoary gauntlet to .Portland b other in numerable social clubs, and is serving a noonday luncheon for members at its clubhouse, corner of Seventh and Stark streets. The taking of this fateful step was a long tlma considered, combated, advo cated, opposed and urged by various friendly factions in the Elks club, and now under the administration of Exalted Ruler Jay Upton it is being tried. Its success is unquestioned. "I opposed the idea from the time It was first proposed, but It is undoubted ly a success; we will never again get away from It,", said Secretary C. M. Bills. Exalted Ruler Upton is pleased with the results obwtined in the short time the experiment has been tried. . The luncheon was Inaugurated two months ago. Money waa lost by It the first: month, but the second month showed a clean briance sheet, and a steady gain is now being recorded by the financing committee. Mr. Upton said: "Of upward of 1,200 members who own this magnificent clubhouse and equipment, less than 25 per centcame here and made use of its conveniences and comforts. The Elks club Is one of the most attractive places that could be Imagined, and is entitled to the loyal support ana patronage or an its mem bers. The luncheon at noonday has fur nished an added attraction to bring the members together, promoting fraternity and good will, and bringing out the spirit of feaowshlp that Is in every good man." The luncheon Is thus far an experi ment. As it gains in popularity larger quarters will nave to be provided, and when this is done the equipment will be made complete and permanent. The average attendance now is ISO daily. The Elks' lunch has but one rival in point of attendance In the city the Commercial club lunch. Which has an average attendance of between 160 and 200. A reasonable measure of freedom Is permitted the Elks to bring friends to lunch. The temporary quarters pro vided for the luncheon are the banquet room and kitchen on the fourth floor.
