Puyallup, Wash,, Lodge Now Has Handsome New Home

An elaborate program of festivities marked the formal dedication of the new Home of Puyallup, Wash., Lodge No. 1450. A banquet, a special entertainment at the civic auditorium and a ball for the Elks and ladies, and the initiation of a large class of candidates were some of the outstanding features of the celebration. The event was attended by many distinguished members of the Order and representatives from a number of surrounding Lodges. The new Home is an exceedingly attractive one. Occupying a frontage of 109 feet on the main street of the city, the old English type of club-house has an appropriate setting. The architecture is of the Tudor period, of brick construction, terra-cotta trim and tile roof. Along the entire front of the building is an open terrace with a tiled floor, from which entrance is had to both the ladies' parlor and main lobby. The Lodge room is so designed that it can be converted into a gymnasium, and space is also provided in the building for a swimming-pool and a larger Lodge room when necessary. Puyallup Lodge has enjoyed a tine growth in prosperity since its institution three years ago. Beginning with a charter list of 63 it now has close to 700 members in good standing.
