Hnliaup 6rretings:

On behalf of the $780, 900 members
OF our fraternal brotherhood. and in
the name of the Improved Order of
Red Men, we cordially greet you and
Join your mighty millions in loyalty
to home, loved ones, and country.
We join you in scattering sunshine
and good cheer. We join you in
bringing peace on earth and good
will to the hearts and homes of all
our people.
OUR Mission
is to make men nobler and better;
to uphold and protect the charity o
women to relieve distress, help the
weak, brighten the lives Of others,
care for the sick, bury the dead, pro-
vide for culture, care and education
OF the orphans of our deceased BROTH
ers.
Our Vows
Require us to strive to bring to-
gether into one mighty fraternity,
worthy persons who appreciate the
true meaning of friendship, who are
cautious in word and act. who love
truth, who are brave in defending
right, whose honor is untarnished,
whose sense Of justice forbids a per-
sonal act or word injurious to the
worthy; whose loyalty to principle,
family, friends, our country and to
the constituted authority under which
We enjoy citizenship is undoubted.
and who at all times are under the
restraint of the Golden Rule"
Our ORDER
Is one in which advancement and
recognition Of sterling worth are not
dependent upon social position or
the possession of wealth. 1t is a So
ciety in which the artisan, the pro-
ieSsional man, the merchant, the la
boring man and the scholar meet on
common ground and on terms of abb
solute equality. 1t is devoid of caste
and cant. Its teachings faithfully in
terpreted and honestly followed will
eliminate the dross of a member in
the crucible of his own conscience,
ard make of him a better citizen,
husband, father, brother or son.
MEMBERSHIP
Under reasonable restrictions, Il
doors are open to admit persons who,
Ike ourselves, believe in the princi-
pes We strive to inculcate, and who
are sincerely willing to aid in further
ing the cause we represent. We be-
lieve in God, the Great Spirit, but
we have no oath, practice or cere-
mony that conflicts with any mans
religious faith or belief.

has left its imprint upon almost every
act of the government of the United
States, which has been for the COM
mon good Of the people of our land.
Our EFFORTS
To scatter sunshine and to make
others happy, are not restricted to
those connected with our Order.
Our charitable efforts are as broad
as Gods love. We therefore ask
the good people Of the United States
to join with US, and let us join with
you, in the noble work Of charity and

Chiefs and join actively with them in
a campaign Of kindly deeds and good
cheer.

her.
