The Benevolent Protective Order of Elks maintains a successful "Lodge" in Lynchburg. This order was founded in 1869 by members of the theatrical profession in New York, but now admits men of other vocations. In addition to the Grand Lodge, there are 820 sublodges, with a membership in 1903 of 130,000. Thus far, about $1,250,000, or an annual average of $25,000, have been disbursed in charity
