Mayor TRUTHS Address.
Mayor Truitt in his address of well
come, speaking for all the people of
Moscow, dwelt on the foundation prin-
ciples of the order-Friendship, Love
and Truth. He analyzed these very
eloquently illustrating the meaning of
friendship from the story of the Good
Samaritan. This. is the principle,
Mayor Truitt said, that is leading Odd
Fellows to help the unfortunate in all
the war-devastated countries of
Europe and Asia.
What Friendship Means.
ut is the same principle of friend
ship" he said; which your order
teaches that is burying the dead and
caring for the wounded on every battle
front in the great war that is now
raging which such namelesS horror

ing and clothing the destitute women
and starving children of Belgium, Po-
land. Serbia. Rumania and other suf-
fering people wherever found Ameri-
ca, actuated by this principle, is stand
ing forth in this hour when the very
souls of men are being sorely tried,
as the Good Samaritan among the ma
tions of the earth.
Love and Truth.
OF the love that exists among the
members of the order Mayor Truitt
said it. was not the love that exists
among relatives, but that divine spirit
taught in the sermon on the mount. 1t
eminates from God, the source of all
and spiritual love. In the
tribune of virtues represented by your
beautiful emblem, truth comes next
and completes the golden chain. Truth
is more than a word, it is a principle,

sented by the third link in your EN-
blem is that divine principle expressed
by Christ when He said: He that |
loeth truth cometh to the light.

SONS TO OBSERVE

BRATlON OF PASSAGE OF ACT
CREATING TERRITORY.
PIONEERS CALLED G0PHERS
Name Is OutgroWth of Indian Custom
ALI Native Sons Invited to Ban
quet-Oryanization Promotes
Better Citizenship.

Minneapolis. - On March 3rd, the
Native Sons Of Minnesota will cele-
brate the 68th anniversary Of the
birthday of their state. For on that
date 1S49, the act creating the terri
tory of Minnesota passed Congress,
and from that time Minnesota appear
ed as separate political division on
the map of the United States. Pre-
vious to that time all of the country
between Michigan and the Missouri
river belonged to Wisconsin territory.
In 1916 Wisconsin was ready to enter
statehood, but the people along the
St. Croix valley and round about Fort
Smelling wished to form government
all their own, and after several unsuc-
cessful attempts, finally persuaded the
National Government to create a new
territory called Minnesota, taking it's
name from the largest river wholly
within it's borders, and at that time
the principal center of population.
Some ten years later the territory was
considered large enough to become a
state, and while the 3rd of March is
not statehood day, it is the day that
the state was named in it's infancy.
Minnesota, as most everyone knows,
means Sky Colored in the Sioux Ian
guage. This name was given to the
river known by that name, but at one
time called the St. Peter.
Settlers Called Gophers.
2'he early settlers of Minnesota
were called Gophers, following no
doubt, the Indian custom of adopting
sorae animal as mascot or totem for
a clan.
For number of years the older
Natives of Minnesota, resident in Min
neapolis, have made it custom to
gather round the banquet table once
a year, to renew old friendship, re-
hearse old adventures and to extol the
many advantages of Minnesota as a
Mace of birth. The Association of the
Native Sons of Minnesota is an incor-
porated body with headquarters in
Minneapolis.
Such an organization can be useful
to the state by intoxicating a high
ideal of citizenship, and to the indi-
vidual in maintaining the friendship
of a previous generation. The officers
for the present year are: w. L. Bas-
sett, president; E. H. Cobb, list vice
president; Dr. A. M. Eastman, End
vice president; P. M. Holl, secretary;
F. L. Gowen, treasurer.
A cordial invitation is extended to
all of the Native Sons of the state,
wherever located, to attend the annual
banquet at the West hotel, at p. M,
on March 3rd.
