ELKS HONOR 27 DEPARTED (Continued From. Page Three) appropriate that the Scranton Lodge. No. 123, of the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks oondut its memorial ser vices at thia season of year when our thoughts and our feelings are inspired and moved by the great victory which our boys clad in the blue of the navy and the 'khaki of the army ao comolished in November, 1918. "The memorial services of a people mark their civilization and humanity.

The interest which people show towards such functions tells of the power and development of home and family and friendship. Since the services last year, twenty seven good American citizens: twenty ac ven good and faithful Elks; twenty seven fathers, husbands, brothers and ons, have gone to their reward. "They will be forever honored and forever mourned. Death to a good man is but passing thru a dark entry nf. one little dusky room of his Father's house Into another 'that Is fair and large, lightsome and gonous ana di vinely entertaining, Blgelow's Eloquent Memorial.

In the memorial address Hon. John H. Bigelow, of Hazleton a member of the lodge at that place, and the man who placed the name of Attorney Gen eral A. Mitchell Palmer before tne Democratic convention In June, referred to the customs of the Greeks, the Romans and the Peruviana In hon oring their dead. 'It is not then' to be marvelled at," he added, "that upon this day set apart by man date of the supreme lodge of Elks, we gather, here as friends in fraternity to do homage to our dead to those that silently slumber in the sleep that shall know no awakening till 'Time shall be no We cannot call them from afar from beyond the vale of tears.

We cannot force our vision through the shadows that separate' We can but here invoke them to relight the fires of love and with their returning spirits to hallow the solemn scene. The vaunted power of man seems here powerless. The genius of man Is here Impotent. "The genius of indeed! The power that has read tire pathway of the planets and solved the secrets of the stars; that has dominated the dominions of the heavens and the seas; that has yoked the electric terror, of the skies to human invention; that has conquered the forces of the earth and made these man's servants; that eacr year wrests from the Omnipotent some tithing of supremacy and adds to man's own mastery that genius still stands transfixed at the bier of a departed friend bowed dowrt with thoughts that lie too deep for words, whose only voice is the silent tear." Hnalo Feature of Service. "To man," eakl Mr.

Bigelow, "is not. vouchsafed the secret of the inscrutable; to him Is not given a spark of the divinity that understands. He cries out in vain against the visitation. The strong spirit so accustomed to triumph would rebel He 1 would follow the ruthless hand that pillages the fireside unto the very tomb. He would, like Hercules, burst the cerements that bind hi? beloved Alcestes, search her from the grave and breathe life anew into her fair inanimate corpse.

But 'all in va his maddening purpose. For until the) cycles of Time have passed and perished, 'until Eternity's sons' shall dawn his race must answer the inevitable summons. In that fateful hour he returns to the earth from whose dust he was made; man returns, and he leaves behind him naught but a phantom of his being leaves but a memory. But what a legacy is there! And what a rich inheritance. 'Tis the power that reaches out beyond the shoreless sea; that bridges the gulf between our Time and their Eternity; that Joins the finite and the infinite; that brings the phantom spirit to revisit the pale glimpses of the moon and scenes of their former life.

It assembles today throughout this land and at this hour the gathering hosts shall serve the soul in its nobler attributes." Music as 'n other years, was one of the features of the service. Never has it been better than last night. The Keystone quartet, made up of Harry Madden, Arthur Williams, Alfred Fillings, and G. Lewis, a mixed quartet mciuaing Keba Morgan Evans, Miss Eunice Berry, Davis and John Burnett, and several of the members of both rendered selections. Invocation and benediction were pronounced by W.
