Roosevelt said:
'On behalf of the American people
wish to thsL,t our ancient ally. the
great French nation, that proud and
gallant nation, 20 whose help we once
owed 1t that John Paul Jones was able
TO win for the Stars and Stripes the
victory that has given him deathless
fame, and 10 whose courtesy we now
owe 1t that the body Of the long dead
hero has been sent hither. and that to
commemorate the reception of the illus
trious dead q squadron of French war
ships has come &c our shores.
The annals Of the French navy are
filled with the names of brave and able
seamen. each Of whom counted death as
a mistress when the honor Of his flag
was at stake: and among the figures OF
these brave men there loom the larger
shapes Of those who, like Tourville,

high renown as feet admirals. inferior

At the Opera House.

When the parade disbanded 1t took
but a few minutes to fill the Grand
Opera house, which, when all were
seated, presented magnificent spec
tacle and most inspiring one to
those who took part in the exercises.
In behalf of the city, ex-Mayor Reed
er made the welcoming address, and
in his usual CHEEKY and hearty man
ner gave all to feel they were welcome
in Tulsa by Tulsa people. Few men
can talk better on organization mat
ters than Doctor Reeder, because he
is himself an active member of sew
elal orders and appreciates and values

fraternity brings with it. His talk
was for the good of the order" and
made fine impression.
George w. Mowbray, ST., also made
very effective speech, but probably
our citizens enpoyed hearing Grand
Master Lafayette better than all 9TH
ers. The Grand Master impressed
himself on his audience as being a
man to whose heart closely lay the
best interests of the !. o. o. F. lie

The most interesting feature was
the exercises by the little ones OF the
Odd Fellows Orphans Home at Che
cotah. Without fathers and mothers,
these wards of the order show in ev-
ery movement, in their appearance
and in their happiness that the or
zauization IL which their parents
belonged has taken the place OF the
parent and is performing a parent s
duty towards them. - ):
It is this last feature of well dl-
reeted charity that makes the L. v.

organizations on earth.
