Elks Lodges bring so much more to their communities than just a building, golf course or pool. They are places where neighbors come together, families share meals, and children grow up.

Welfare Committee of San Francisco, Calif, Lodge Active
San Francisco, Calif., Lodge No. 3, has awarded for the second time its annual scholarship which assures a full term at either Stanford University or the University of California for the young man selected by the Lodge's Social and Community Welfare Committee. The Committee cooperated with the principals and faculty of every accredited High School in the city, and made its selection from a list of candidates submitted by them. The first requisites for these scholarships arc that the young man selected must be one whose parents or guardians are not in financial position to aid him through college, that he must be ambitious to obtain higher education, and have a scholastic record which will justify the expenditure. The Social and Community Welfare Committee is also cooperating with the three transbay Lodges in furnishing a lounging-room in the Letterman Hospital for tubercular patients. Another piece of excellent work planned by the committee working with Lodges in San Mateo, Palo Alto and San Jose, is the construction of a new tennis court for the use of the patients at Palo Alto Base Hospital.
