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.

Binghamton, N. Y., Lodge Presents American Flag to Court
An American flag, representing the principles back of the oath of allegiance and the obligations which foreign born persons assume when being admitted to citizenship in the Naturalization Court, was recently presented to the Broome County Court by Binghamton, N. Y., Lodge No. 852. Howard A. Swartwood, Exalted Ruler, made the presentation in behalf of the Lodge in the court-room, and the flag was accepted by Supreme Court Justice Leon C. Rhodes in behalf of the people. The presentation of the flag followed out the suggestion of Grand Exalted Ruler John G. Price, who spoke recently at the annual banquet of Binghamton Lodge, urging Elks to aid aliens in their efforts to become new Americans.
