S. was founded 100 years ago bv a young Englishman, Charles Algernon Sidney Vivian, who came to this country to seek fame and fortune as a singer. By the narrow vote of 8 to 7, the name Elks was chosen for the organization instead of Buf faloes by a jovial Sunday night group in New York, known as the Jolly Corks, of which Viv ian was a member. When they outgrew their attic meeting room, it was agreed they need ed more uim and wider scope than their usual festive agenda. When a member died and left his family destitute, the path was shown them and the organ ization grew to become one of America's foremost "benevolent, and protective" associations. Today there are 2,091 Elks Lodges in the United States, Puerto Rico, Guam and the Can al Zone, and as of last March the membership was a record high of 1,417,435. Although there have been many changes in the Elks organization and activities, the original guidelines still pre vail: charity, justice, brotherly love and fidelity. The Heppner Elks lodge was organized in 1897, and contin ues to carry on a full and ac tive program for its present membership of over 700.
