PAGE SIX ELKS ARE CALLED TO FIGHT THREAT FACING WORLD (Continued from P'lgo One) MRS. M. HERRING, POLIO VICTIM, IS GREATLY iMPROVED Mrs. Marilyn Herring, stricken with polio Saturday and taken to| St. Ann’s hospital, is spending in- creasing periods out of the iron lung. “This polio case is not of an epi- demic nature but is a sporadic one such as might happen at any time,’ said Dr. J. W. Gibson, her attend ing doctor, “I feel that she is out of danger with the possibility of no general residual paralysis.” Mrs. Herring is greatly improved, according to Dr. Gibson. She has very little if any paralysis at the| present time as a result of the sick- | ness. | The iron lung, dedicated last Sat- urday by the Elks and given by | Peterson; Chaplain, J. Valentine; Secretary, Frank Murkowski; Treas- urer, Harry Newell; Inner Guard, Frank Shelton; Tiler, Ray Roady Organist P. DeBoer and Card Lect- urer, E. A. Vincent Eight Given Antlers Elks antlers were placed on the following: J. Peter Christensen, William R. Vernon, Albert L. Shaw, David R. Minard, William C. Rey- nolds, John W, Jutsum, James J Vuille and Arnold Johnson. Grand Exalted Ruler Kyle then gave one of the most stirring pa- triotic talks perhaps ever heard a an Elks gathering. He cited the threat of Communistic imperialisn that may require the United States to remain mobilized for the next 10 years. This is no time for business or politics as usual, he said, and de- clared that every Elk must sacrifice “to win this struggle for survival’ y Is To Sacrifice s sacrifice,” e pointed out. “We should be prepared to dc without the luxuries which we are accustomed to expect and even to curtail necessities, When the nation is fighting for its life, the hoarder and the blackmarketeer are enemies of society. “No black market can exist with- out patrons and he who buys on the black market is just as much an enemy of society as he who sells.” He called on the members of 1,580 Elks lodges to action in the cause for freedom. He urged Elks “to pre- serve the constitution, laws and in- stitutions of the nation as a reflec- tion of the will of the people, of you and me. This is the hour of our greatest danger, the Russian threat of Communistic domination of the world. Let us face it with faith, with courage and resolute determination. With God’s help we shall not fail.” PGER Anderson also made a short, characteristic talk and called on Elkdom to support the constitu- tion of its own order. There were various awards made | during the late session. Frank Mur- kowski, PER of Ketchikan was call- ed before the altar and GER Kyle presented him with a watch, a gifi from the Ketchikan lodge for serv- ices given. The gift came as a dis- tinct surprise to the receiver, Charles Garfield was given a photostatic copy of the charter of the Elks lodge. GER Kyle presented new member Albert Shaw with the pin his father wore during his life- time and Gene Vuille presented his son James with his Hawaiian pin to be worn with his pin from Juneau. . PER Kyle himself had a surprise coming and he received gifts from the Elks, one six blankets with which to keep warm. There was plenty of doings going on at the session and perhaps some of them have been missed, but any way a grand time was had by all, as they say. Following the session ladies night took place and con- tinued, with dancing until 2 o’clock. Many of the visitors were home- bound yesterday, all declaring that the Juneau lodge knew how to en- tertain. GER Kyle, and PGER And- erson left during the afternoon via PAA for Seattle after a breakfas at which GER Kyle was host to many Elks. | Before leaving GER Kyle com- missioned District’ Deputy Steven- son to attend the Territorial Elks convention to be held during this month at Kodiak. Douglas, hospital Saturday evening by local and visiting Elks from the local| lodge rooms. g ! Mrs. Herring has been employed as a store clerk. Dr. C. C. Carter, city health of-| ficer, today warned against undue| panic because of a possible polio case in Juneau. “This case has not yet been| definitely diagnosed as polio. Pre—, liminary tests given are negative a*‘ yet,” he said. “The sensible thing to do is to take precautions such as getting plenty of sleep and rest, keeping children from undue strain and excitendent, and avoiding crowds. No quarantine is planned a: it has not proven of any value. There is no known preventative for polio such as shots and vaccines. “The situation is being watched closely and if anything comes up, | the public will be notified,” Dr Carter said. KEITHAHN BACK WITH CURIOS OF E. L. Keithahn, curator of the Territorial Library and Museum, returned to Juneau Saturday after- noon after visiting Petersburg, Wrangell, Ketchikan and Hyda- burg in the interests of the mu- seum. One of the most important “finds,” which he brought back, is a very old Tlingit doll which was recovered from between the walls of a house which was razed in Ketchikan. The curio is in an ex- ceptionally good state of preser- vation both as to coloring and con- dition. The doll, its body of buckskin !wim blue trade-bead decoration, is | encased in a replica of a sack or |bag, made of dyed native grass, in which early natives carried ba- The appleblossom is the state| flower of Michigan.
