THANKING ONE AND ALL.
At meeting of the Loyal Home Workers it
was decided that we give the Pittsburg and
Allegheny people a public vote of thanks
through The NATIONAL TRIBUNE, as a token
of our appreciation of their generosity and
kindness to us. Not only from those init
mately associated with the Grand Army of the
Republic through the Citizens Committees, but
from every inhabitant of those cities, whose
guests we were, did we receive the heartiest
welcome, the most beautiful hospitality, and
the most spontaneous surrender of not only
their public institutions, but their homes.
We left for homes regretfully, and with
hearts full Of gratitude for the royal reception
they gave Us, repeating among ourselves what
we had heard some one say, that lin this
past week of Reunion and glory and hospi-
tally, the greatest honor that could be con-
ferred upon one was TO be known as Tits
burger"
Especially do we feel grateful to Miss Mamie
G. Barclay, of 212 Allegheny Avenue, Allie
gheny City. Her house and the sweetest serv-
ice that she had to offer were ours, and we c. G.
boys and girls cannot adequately express our
gratitude toward her.
Miss Sarah E. Pence, and her kind associates
in the Young Women's Christian Association
of Pittsburg, we also wish to thank for the
pleasant luncheon hour we girls so much en-
joyed.
We voted to place Miss Barclay and Miss
Pence upon our c. c. roll-call. aud we hope
that the Young Women's Christian Associa-
ton will read and enjoy THE NATIONAL TRIB-
UNE. which they will hereafter find in their
reading room; and that we may have the honor
to enlist them all as Loyal Home Workers in
the cause of Progress and Patriotism.
We cordially invite them all to meet with US
in Louisville next year, where we will endeavor
TO return their courtesies with true Southern
hospitality. Yours. Pro Patria-
The Loyal Home Workers, per Georgia A.
Martin.
CoMRADE M'MURRAY's GREETINGS.
To THE LOYAL HOME WORKERS, GREET
ING: Allow me to declare the sincerest loyalty
to the principles and purposes of our associa-
ton. Invent to Pittsburg to the National Con-
veption and Reunion firm in the conviction
that, heretofore, should oppose any changes
which might be proposed. But after Lengthy
con inference with Brothers Seaman and Hargrove
and Sister Jansen. members of the Revision
Committee, to whom was committed year ago
the work of revising the organic law, the Con.
stitution, Rules and Regulations, and reading
the letters of Sisters Best and Dickey also
members of the aforesaid committee, but not
present, / had "a change of heart" and was
fully persuaded that a change in our modus
opcrandi had become a necessity. Let il be
noticed that every member of that Revision
Committee has been loyal worker in the
cause of Progress and Patriotism, and knew
what com APPLICATIONS were constantly
arising TO initiate against the successful work
ing of what every loyal heart has dearly loved.
The changes sought are TO simplify the work,
and bring every member, however remote, into
touch with the National Association. Not one
jet OF our indefnable fraternity is sacrificed
you to give the reorganization your loyal,
hearty support The work to be accomplished
is the important matter, the method is of less
moment.
Our beloved Mother" continues at the head
of affairs, The NATIONAL TRIBUNE is still our
forum, and our blessed fraternity is untouched,
unsullied. We are still on the road of Progress
and Loyalty to the best there is in American
life, and ! am fully persuaded that if we, indi-
vidually and collectively, do what we can we
shall see prosperity which was hardly posi-
be under the complicated machinery and red
tape of the old regime. Give the new a fair
trial and loyal support, enlarge your circles
as you may now do. being careful always To
avoid the unreliable and unworthy.
sincere, loyal heart sends you greeting,
and pledges more and better work in the future

was brought into being loyalty to the old flag
and what II represents, advancement in all
that is highest. truest and best in our social
civil and spiritual life, and charity which is
leye and justice aud truth combined shall
have q new birth and wider, grander life.
