Home and Flag.
"The United States is good enough
for men. Under the flag any good
American can find a home and be at
home and content None of you but
feel a spirit of satisfaction when you
know and feel the mission of that
FLAG. We all know what IT has done
for YOU and yours, what it has done
for ME and mine. From foreign
shores came my ancestors. driven by
the tyrannical rule and unjust perse-
cution Of unjust rulers. And it was
my ancestors and yours who helped
fashion the laws and constitution OF
the United States.
1T Is for the L1tter-day Saints to
sustain and honor the laws of the
United States Our faith tells ms
that we must not vIoIate any law
which has been declared constitution
al and that the constitution OF the
state and nation must be held invio-
late And we recognize obedience to
these laws. And when any member
of the church steps aside from laws
of this state and nation he accepts
personal responsibility for that act
I'VE rejoice in the blessings we
have received under this flag, more
generous than in any other country.
Homes Of Plenty.
East or rs we find one Of the
finest sections in the world which

homes of plenty, homes Of love.
: homes of devotion. homes OF honor
homes OF integrity. Ii Is for the build
ing of these homes that the Latter
day Saints should strive, that they
should work increasingly. BE true
