appointed to supervise their work.
This council consists of William J.

The Alliance chapter was particu
larly fortunate in being instituted by
Zoro D. Clark, who was chiefly re
sponsible for making the Order of
DeMolay nationwide in its scope. The
order is but a little over two years
old, and was organized first in Kan
sas City by Frank D. Land, in charge
cf the welfare work of the Scottish
Rite bodies of that city, and the Scot
tish Rite home for crippled children.
Mr. Land had intended it only as a
local organization. In November, 1919,
Mr. Clark visited Kansas City and saw
the work put on by the boys. At that
time he suggested that the order be
made national and was given the
Erivilege of starting the ball rolling
y instituting a chapter in Omaha. He
was given permission to use the orig
inal manuscript, and May 8, 1920, the
first chapter outside of Kansas City
was organized. There were sixty-five
' charter members in Omaha, and at
that time Kansas City had over 850.
The growth of the order has been
remarkable. At the grand council
meeting, held March 8, 1921, fifty-five
charters were granted, and 115 cities
were organizing under letters tempor
ary, the membership being 25.000. A
week ago, before Mr. Clark came to
Alliance, he was informed by Mr.
Land, who is grand scribe, that a
check of members showed the 45,000
mark had been nassed.
There are nearly two thousand
member.1? in Nebraska alone. rhs ntr
being located at Omaha, Lincoln,
Hastings, 1 Hroken Bow, - Beatrice,
Grand Island and Alliance. Twelve
other cities in the state have made
application for letters temporary. The
I'lattsmouth .chapter will be instituted
next week.
The Alliance chapter is sponsored
by A'loniram lodge of Perfection No.

however, as any chapter of Royal Arch

According to Mr. Clark, there has
recently been organized in Omaha the
first chapter of Job s Daughters, a
similar organization -for girls with
Masonic relatives. It is planned to
make this a national organization, and
Mr. Clark took up with Eastern Star
officers the matter nf inutitntino- a
bethel at Alliance. The ages of the
girls eligible to membership is from
fourteen to eighteen. In the boys' or
ganization, the age limit is from six
teen to twenty-one.
Mr. Clark was enthusiastic over the
personnel of the membership of the
Alliance De Molay chapter. "I see no
reason why the membership here
should not be at least three Hundred
within a year," he said "I am ex
tremelv cratified at the interest
shown, not only by the officers of the
new cnapter, Dut by tne entire mem
bership, as well as by the Masons of
the citv. I feel that the arlvtsnrr hnnnl
has been wisely selected. The class of
uoys is certainly a nne one.
Following are the names of the first
sitv-fiv hnvs tn eio-n tho .Viorrnr

proDaDly reach seventy-nve or eighty.
Second Shipment of
Fish Planted Sunday
Out At Broncho Lake
The Alliance Anglers' club, through
its officers F. E. Holsten, president,
and Lloyd C. Thomas, secretary has
been engaged for several years ,in
planting the lakes and streams in this"
part of the country with baby fish.
Messrs. Holsten and Thomas first
started planting fish about four years
a eo and have Dlanted mobubiv 200.-
000 fish since that time in Broncho
lake, the Niobrara river, the Kil pat
riot uara lake and in the Little Rapid
river in South Dakota.
The Nebraska game and fish com
mission special car came through Alli
ance on No. 43 Sunday and while here
left eight cans of baby perch and two
cans of sunfish and a large number
of bullfrogs, which were all planted
Immediately afterwards in Broncho
lake, lhe car was in charge of
George G. Koester, chief game warden
of the state. This is the second ship
ment planted in Broncho lake, a half
carload havfhg been planted there by
the Anglers' club a year ago last fall.
Last Tuesday the Spearnsh govern
ment fisheries furnished nineteen cans
of brook trout and four cans of rain
bow trout to the Anglers' club and
they were planted for it in the Little
Rapid river near Mistic , by George
Walters of Edgemont, who is an en
thusiastic member of the club.
Another year should see some ex
cellent fishing in Broncho lake and
the nearby streams which have been
planted.

Not Much Interest
. in Trying to Secure
a State Reformatory
Members of the Alliance chamber
of commerce refused to warm up to
the idea of the organization making
aa effort to secure the state reform
atory which is to be built some time
in the near future. The state has
asked for bids from towns interested
and has intimated that a site will be
needed and possibly some other in
ducements. Secretary Carey present
ed the proposition, but the members
didn't evince much enthusiasm. The
reformatory is intended for the refor
mation of first termers and will en
able them to be segregated from the
more hardened offenders.
Charles Fuller spoke at some
length on the things he had ob served
during his recent trip to England. He
mentioned the ravages of the war;
the unemployment problem; the Irish
question and other interesting prob
lems that face the Britishers.
Secretary Carey announced thr.t he
would leave this week for Denver, to
appear before the interstate com
merce commission representing sev
eral western Nebraska cities ur.d
towns in an effort to have freight
rates on certain commodities lowered.
He mentioned the reduction in the rate
on building sand as one of the things
that had been accomplished recently.

HAY SPRINGS
FARMERS MEET
COMMISSIONERS
GO OVER PROPOSED ROAD
BOX BUTTE COUNTY
IN
No Decision Was Arrived at Concern-
ing Suggested Changes in the
Location of Route
A delegation of fifty residents of
May Springs and farmers near that
city, together with some from the
northwestern part of Box Butte ro-in-ty,
met with the Dox Butte county
commissioners Monday morning. The
delegation urged some changes in the
route of the road in this county that
has been planned to connect with the
route in the adjoining count leading
to Hay Springs.
The delegation met at the Iarple
post office and brought their lunches
with them. When Commissioners
Hashman and Duncan drove out to
meet them they were ju.t finishing
with the lunch. The party drove out
over the proposed road and inspected
it, after which certain change were
discussed. According to the commis
sioners, no decision was made. The
Box Butte commissioners hud already
designated the road -ind were ready
to go ahead with the construction, but
it is possible that changes will be
made if the sentiment is sufficiently
strong.
In a part of the county where there
are few good roads, it is impossible
to select a route that will please every
farmer, and the commissioner have
had in mind to select the onq which
would benefit the greatest number c f
residents at the smallait proportion
ate expense. ,

Pete Sauer to Meet
Zikmand of Brainard
at Roof Garden Tonight
The mat fans will have another op
portunity to yell themselves hoarse at
the roof garden tonight, when Joe Zik
mand of Brainard, who tips the beam

Sauer. Zikmand comes from Ravenna,

Pesek. and is said to have a number
of good wrestling tricks at his com
mand. He is no slouch at the game,
judging by his record. Three years

ELKS CLUB WILL
RAISE FUNDS FOR
CAMPFIRE GIRLS
TO HELP PAY FOR TRIP TO
HOT SPRINGS
Benefit Dance Planned for Jane S at
Ells Home Other OrganL
cations to' Assist
The members of Alliance lodge No.
m, B. P. O. Elks, at the meeting last
Friday evening, voted unanimously to
act as big brothers to the Campfir
Gals organization In the city and as
sist them in raising funds to pay their
expenses on the annual camping trip.
Last year forty or more girls earned
the money to take them on a ten-day
trip to Belmont, and this year they
had hoped to earn sufficient money to
take them to Spearflsh canyon, in th
Black Hills. Under the rules thev ar
supposed to earn this money, but tha
expenses of the trip loomed pretty
large for the eighty Campfire girls,
and the Elks, after discussing the
matter at two or three meetings. de
elded that it was too much to expect
of them and volunteered to come to"
their assistance.
A committee consisting of S. W.
Thompson, A. V. Gavin and Edwin M
Burr were appointed to look into ways
and means, and their report, read last
Friday, was adopted without a dis-
senting vote. The committee recom
mended a benefit dance, which will b
held at the Elks home on the evening
of June 8. In order to conform to
the Campfire regulations, the ticket
sales will be in charge of the trlrla
themselves, but several of the Elks,
a few of the T. P. A.'s and others will
assist in the work. The Woman's club,
the Rotary and Lions clubs, th
Knights of Columbus and other organ
zations of the city will be asked to
help.
The girls have been able, by means
of candy sales and a house-to-hous
canvass, selling coffee, to raise som
$200 toward defraying their expenses.
The high railroad rates hit their plans
a terrific jolt, when it was learned that
the railway fare to Spearfish - alono
would take several times the total
amount of their savings. The various
guardians nave uiscusseu me matier
of a location, and have come' to th
conclusion that this year a camp could.
be made at the Chautauqua grounds
near Hot Springs. The scenery around
Hot Springs is ideal, the distance is
not so far but what, if necessary,
automobiles can be drafted to take tho
girls, and there are a number of side
trips which can be arranged.
The Elks expect to raise ftom $500
to $750, and in the event the dance
and other plans fail to work out, it U
probable that they will sponsor a driv
similar to the one put on in the in
terests of the Boy Scouts some week
ago. With the big membership of the
Elks, and the popular interest in th
Campfire girls organization, it is un
likely that there will be any oossidiu
ity of failure. The ticket selling will
begin some day this week. The price,
will be $1, with no war tax, and very
few people will turn down the sales
girls.
