ON of the mother OF us all on this
beautiful June day.
Five OF the members Of this order
have died within the year that has
passed, and we are here to do hon.
or to ourselves by doing honor to
their memory. They are D. ]. Lew
ellyn, John Scully, w. A. Cowan, H.
G.. Reuter- and II. +. McFadden. In
defeating these FIVE monuments to.
day you have selected that OF d. j.
Llewellyn as typifying them all.
This young man, in the midst Of
his employment On his engine, was
flying over the rails, full Of life and
vigor, but In q moment was hurled
to his death, whilst w. A. Cowan,
whose tomb is nea by, died after
long and painful illness. Whether in
health or decay, death is ever pres
ent and its hour Is unknown.
I have spoken Of the duty OF the
living to the dead. There is duty
which the dead owe to the living.
David Harum, I believe 1t was, said
that some Of the meanest things that
men do are done after death, where
by unwise or vicious wills they per.
petuate wrongs on the living and
perpetual reproach on themselves.
It Is every mans duty in making a
will to do right to those who sur.
vive and TO honor himself by the
wisdom of his b~enefactions.
1t Is also his duty to provide for
his wife and children as far as 1t
may lie in his power. Life insur-
ance Is not a privilege-it Is a duty.
I heard DR.. Talmage say once, In
speaking Of this duty, chat the man
who has sufficient income from his
labor, or other source, to provide
something for his family by insur'
ance and fails to do so does not die
at the end Of his life, he simply alb
seconds"
The great organization to which
you belong recognizes the duty oil
the dead to the living and makes pro
vision for the helpless when the
bread winner has passed away.
Indeed, you go one step further,
and mark the spot where your de
parted brothers sleep. The father
who joins one of these fraternal or
g%anizations makes his own life more
comfortable by so doing, for he con
stantly recognizes, in the payment Of
each assessment, that he is not only
caring for those then In need but IA
making sure that those who are de
pendant upon him shall in like man
ner be cared for when their time Of
| sorrow comes.

DEFEATED TACOMANS.
Steckle's Men Did Tie Score is So
to o-Story OF the Game.


The game of football between
OAC and Whitworth on College
field Saturday was a waterloo for |
the Tacomans. 1t surprised the
Oregon lads with the inability of
the visitors to do better stunts at
the game. Whitworth had some
strong men but along with them
were smaller lads who were pay
things III the hands of Steck1e's S |
men. 1t was all SO easy that the
Oregonians kicked to Whitw orth,
took the bail away from them in
three downs and III three form
atiouS, sent Root over Tor touch
down in only two minutes Of play.
This was followed up with touch
down by Rin4hart in a 100 yard
run from Whitworyh's kickoff, all
in 80 secondsoi play. This remark
able performance was duplicated
later in the same half by the same
player in a ruiz of exactly the same
distance. In each case Steckles
men punched in a fierce interIer-
ence about the player, forming an
assault that the Tacomans could
not stop. The third touchdown
required only seven plays, rnnning
ike this: Whitworth kicked off
and Dolan ran the ball to the AS
yard line Root got away for IS
Yards, Abraham, 10, Williams, p;
Williams, 10; Root, 7; Dolan, 8:
and Abraham went over 1or a
touchdown. About the same num-
Der of plays yielded the fourth
touchdown. It ran thus: Whit
worth kicked off and Cooper ran
the ball back to the 20 yard line.
Williams tore off 10 yards, Abra-
hom s. Griffith, who had replaced
Root, S, a tumble was recovered
Abraham bucked three, and Will
hams got away for a 70 yard run
and touchdown. Up to this time
there had been seven minutes and
ten seconds of actual play and the
score was "a to o. In the remain
ing 3 minutes of the half, with
Whituo orth kicking off, Sickle S
men made four more trips across
the Washington goal, and rolling
up a score Of 47, Kenneth Cooper

In the second half the visitor:
