In seeking to symbolic the tale which
this exposition tells. And among
these figures | have sought for one
which would represent to me the
significance Of this great enterprise.
Prophets. priests and kings are
here. conquerers and mystical figures
Of ancient legend but these do not
speak the word bear. My eye is
drawn to the least conspicuous figure
Of all-the modest figure of man
standing beside two oxen who look
down upon the Court of the Nations,
when East and West come face TO
face.
The Man With the OK Team.
Without him we could not be here
without him banners would not fly nor
bands play Without him San Fran
cisco would not be today the gayest
city Of the globe. Shall | tell you who
he is-this key figure in the arch Of
our enterprise?
That slender, dauntless. Flooding.
modest figure is the American pioneer.
To me he is far more. He is the adj
senturesome spirit of our restless race.
The long journey Of this slight
modest figure that stands beside the
oxen is at an end. The waste places
Of the earth have been found But
adventure is not to end. Here will be
,aught the gospel of an advancing
democracy valiant. confident,
nQuering-upborne and typitied by
the independent spirit of the American
pioneer"
Forty-one foreign nations and iS
States and Territories of the Ameri
can Union are participating in the EX
position.
This is the world in epltome." said
Dr.. Frederick j. V. Skin, the director
in-chief. in a brief dedicatory address.
Within the Enclosure of these eXposi-
ton grounds there are no foreigners.
All may stand and stop upon this soil
as if it were their native land"
All In Gigantic Parade.
Salvos of artillery salutes, shrieking
and sirens. pealing bells. roll
ing drums and piercing flies had
the city at dawn. The day
had been declared a legal holiday and
nearly all the business houses and fac
tories were closed to permit their EN-
ployes to march in the gigantic par
ade, which early took possession OF
the grounds.
In the parade were Secretary Lane
of the Department of the Interior
Governor Johnson. the Senate and As.
sembly OF California, the Governor
and entire Legislature of Nevada,
Mayor Rolph of San Francisco. Mayor
Rose of Los Angeles and the Mayors
OF many other California cities.
The formal aspect of the dedication
was made as short and simple as pos
sible
United States soldiers and marines
escorted Secretary Lane. Governor
Johnson and the other officials to. a
stand facing the main entrance to the
Exposition. where they overwhelmed
by President Charles c. Moore and the
other executive officers.

WHEN THE CURSE
IS ROLLED AWAY
(Rev 22;3)
JAMES ". HEATHERLY

When the curse is rolled forever.
From the valleys and the hills;
From the desert TO the river.
From the oceans and the hills.
Then the halleluiah chorus
VIII sing for endless day,
In praises TO God above us,
When the curse is rolled away.
Soon the millions who are sleeping
All the just ard unjust:
Back to life will be leaping.
From the prison house of dust
Messiah's reign will soon recover.
Millions from the oceans spray
When the reign of sin is over.
And the curse is rolled away.
Therell be no more dying.
The universe rejoice:
Therell be no more crying.
Songs arise from cvery voice.
The earth become as Eden,
Bright as morn in May.
This earth be part Of heaven.

Courage In Face of Death Brings
Victoria Cross 10 Lieut.. Smyfh

tenant Smyth and Sepoy Lal Singh.
OF the remainder of the band Of
heroes, two of the Sepoys had been
killed and three wounded.
The second box of bombs had to
be abandoned, and to haul even one
box along in face of such difficulty
appeared an impossible task.
Still pulling and hauling. Smyth
and Lal Singh emerged wriggling
painfully along into the open where
they were met with an increased
blast of fire.
Miraculously surviving this. they
crawled on. only to be confronted
suddenly by a small stream which
was too deep to wade. Across il lay
the direct line to safety. The ordi-
nary man. under such circumstances
would have probably stopped. but
these crawled on and on in full view
of the enemy, now at close quarters,
until they came to a point in the
stream which was just fordable.
Across this they struggled with
their valuable burden and in a few
yards they were amongst their
friends in our trench, both untouch-
ed, although their clothes we're per-
forated with bullet holes.
For his bravery Lieutenant Smyth
was awarded the Victoria Cross and
each of the brave men win him the
Indian Distinguished Service Medal
The men in the regiment believe
that Lieutenant Smyth bears a charm
ed life for he has had his cap blown
of by shells five times. has had bull
lets through his clothes and lately
while lighting cigarette. the mattel
was taken out of his fingers by a bull
let.
