Rev. Frederick Tonge.
After another selection by the Silver
Bow Glee club the Grafton was delivered
by Rev. Frederick TOnge, orator of the
day. 1t was an ornate dignified and
masterful effort. From the exordium to
the peroratiOn the reverend gentleman
was followed closely by his audience and
at times was interrupted by spontaneous
outbursts of applause. He spoke on the
origin of the order. it's aims and the
work it has accomplished, the advant-
ages gained by membership and the out
look for it's future.
This order does not concern itself
with the religious or political beliefs OF
its MEMBERS he said, nor does it allow
English or American politics to be intro
Guced into it's meetings. 1t enjoins all
its members to become good citizens OF
thesland of their adoption and is no way
antagOnistic to this country or it's peo-
pie, seeking only the unification of Eng
lishmen for good and wholesome pur-
poses. 1t is an order conducive to the
welfare of it's members. the general good
OF society and the prosperity of the land
which affords it's members better home
than the land of their birth can give
them.
The order warns it's members that no
Englishman will be a traitor to the land
of his adoption and will always obey the
laws of the country where he makes his
home. The interests of it's members are
wrapped up in the prosperity of this
country rather than in that of the lani
of their birth"
The orator was loudly applauded at
the conclusion Of his eloquent effort and

history of the order, the significance of

was listened to with the closest attention
and every eloquent and telling point
heartily applauded. At the conclusion
the speaker was given an ovation. Pro-

Christian Civilization.
Great Britain is not alone in advanc
ing this great cause. The United States,
the land of our adoption, whose faithful
citizens we all Of us should be, stands
pledged to advance Christian civiliza-
ton. The proudest principle of the Sons
of st. George is not that they love their
mother country less but that they owe
more to the land of our adoption. In
all Of our parades there has been but
one flag carried, and that the Stars and
Stripes. In England today at this ve:y
moment the Stars and Stripes and Union
Jack are flying entwined on many of tht.
public buildings. And it is my fervent
prayer, and l believe the heartfelt wish
of every Son of st. George, that for all
time these two flags shall stand together
for all that is good all that is true and
all that will advance Christian civiliza-
ton. America and England-not one,
but bOth-must and shall be the factors
to benefit humanity. These few words
/ have spoken in all joyousness Of heart.
But throughout the length and breadth
of the world cloud Of sorrow has been
cast over our people. The foremost
character of the nineteenth century, the
noblest mother, the most devoted wife.
the most majestic queen, the grandest
woman, has passed away. l feel that in
our most joyous moments today re
should pause and think with love of the
late Queen Victoria of glorious memory.
The mother of her people has been called
away. Time will not permit Of further
eulogy. To have been a good woman is
in the sight of God as noble as to have
been a good queen. She was both, and
we can only hope that the example Of
THEM mother, both as a woman and a
monarch, will ever enable her successors
King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra.

sorrow that I address you here this
afternoon. I am afraid that it is an old,
old story for me to make a speech in
this grand hall Of yours, but if not a
pleasure to you, l can assure you that
1t Is great pleasure to me to look into
the old familiar faces and to feel once
more that we are all united in a common
effort to show to the world, and more
particularly to the community in which
we live, that we are sturdy, stalwart
Britishers, who are not ashamed of the
land of our birth and who are still
prouder of our reputation as good Amer
lean citizens and loyal Sons of ST.
George. Each year as l stand before
you and sturdily proclaim my loyalty
to the Sons of st. George, as being an
order that fosters all that is conducive
to good American citizenship, I feel that
still there are few in our midst who
either wilfully or from ignorance assert
that this grand and noble order is Grip
pied by being in politics. AS long as
there are miscreants who will make
these false assertions there will be peo-
pie who believe it.

st. George, it is my duty, in common
with all other good members Of this
order. to make the most emphatic denial
of such charges, both in public ana in
private. l feel full of gladness when
contemplate the great prosperity thar
has attended this order, both in this
community and all over the world, ana
I feel that st. Georges day means more
to us this year than it has ever meant
before. You all know that Great Britain
has been engaged in a most unfortunate
war in South Africa, a war that I be-
lieve from the bottom of my hears is
just one, and one that was thrust upon
the empire, but one that has watered
the virgin soil of the dark continent with
the bravest blood that was ever shed In

other day, when the sound of music is
stilled and the feet of the dancers cease
to move ryhthmically to the bars of mel
ody which will keep them in remem-
brance of the land of their fathers will
the Sons and Daughters of st. George
rest satisfied that they have done due
honor to the memory of their patron
saint who sirded his lions with the grid
Of justice; armed himself with the sword
of patriotism and sallying forth slew the
dragon that menaced the lives and peace
o. mind of his people.
All things combined to make the day
of festivity a success. Even the ele-
ments We're propitious; Apollo never
smiled down more sweetly from his gold
en- chariot On it's daily trip across tho
blue vault of heaven, while old Aeolus
never held his fierce winds in firmer con-
troll nor sent out more gentle breezes to
wander playfully up and down the Mon
tana valley. In the hearts of the cele-
orators We're reflected these softer and
bflehter forces of ma lure and all was
merry from morn to dewey eve.'
The celebration began with pro-
gramme of musical and literary exercises
at ST. Georges hall in Centerville. The
SPACIOUS and beautiful hall was tas;e-
fully decorated for the occasion with
flags bunting and flowers. The Union
Jack and ''Old Glory" were entwined be-
hind the speakers desk, symbolic of the
veneration in which the mother country
is held by all true sons and daughters and
of the love felt for the country of their
adoption.
The exercises opened with the singing
of an ode by an audience which packed
