Who is James J Davis?
The Loyal Order of Moose fraternity was created in April of 1888. Did you know only a few short
years later, the fraternity was on the verge of fading away? In October of 1906, a man with a
vision was introduced to the struggling fraternity. That man was James J Davis, and he brought
with him a purpose for the Moose. His dream of a “happy city of children” brought hundreds of
thousands of new members to the fraternity with the promise the Moose, as a whole, would
continue to care for his family if the member should parish. James J Davis is a name every
Moose member should know. The children of Mooseheart are reminded of the man who gave
them second chances at life as they pass the monument of James J Davis, on the Mooseheart
campus. Remind your members who saved our great fraternity and gave it purpose to thrive.
Proudly display in your lodge a replica of the same monument the children look up to. Each
replica stands 8”, features James J Davis standing with 2 Mooseheart students, and is available
for purchase from Catalog Sales for only $8.95 each‐ plus shipping and handling. Call to order
your James J Davis Statue today. 630.966.2250 or order online
