evening was unusually interesting and

The newly elected members will be

big time is expected.
The Secretary, R. NJ. Johnson and
Treasurer, J. @. Adams made their
semi-annual reports.
The lodge did a charitable act in
unanimously voting to purchase a ton
of hard coal for Crispus Attacks Home
and the coal was delivered at the

Esquire.
The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1917-12-15
Mr.. NATHAN sTRAUs is RIGHT.

Mr.. NATHAN STRAUS is RIGHT.
Mr.. Nathan Straus, a we'll known
multi-millionaire of New York City,
who is campaigning to raise $1,000,00O
for welfare work among the Jews in
the national service, exhibited the
spirit that should burn in the breast
of every man, in inviting fifty colored
soldiers OF the national army at Camp
Upton to his home for a Thanksgiving
dinner. 1t is stated that he did this
as one way of showing impartiality in
welfare work which he had empha-
sized ought not be confined to aiding
men of only one race, .one nationality
or one color. 1t is claimed on all sides
that this great world war is being
waged to firmly establish world
wide democracy, which is only another
name for the brotherhood of man. It
cannot be claimed that this is a white
mans war, as white men constitute
only one-eighth of the cosmopolitan
peoples that are actively engaged in
it. And this democracy or brother
hood of man will never be established
until it is established right. So long
as any man, or, any set of men are
denied equal and exact participation in
all obligations and benefits that fall to
the lot of mankind, the grand principle
of democracy will not be established.
There is no half way ground, it must
be as the new national slogan says:
"FREEDOM FOR ALL FOREVER"
