The Exposition building was erected
in 80 days and has stood for more than
80 years as an eloquent testimonial
to the enterprise and spirit of the men
who helped make the great northwest
what it is. This month it will be re-
dedicated to the cause of reunited
and prosperous northwest after the
horror of war.
The building stands on hallowed
ground, in the opinion of the older
generation, for it was the site of the
old Winslow House. This famous
hostelry was the social and business
center of old st. Anthony town, and
many of the nations famous people
were entertained there SO years ago.

You served on that front for no days.
You were the first American division

in patrols, in the heat of hand tc

soldiers spirit, you bore yourselves
in manner worthy Of the traditions
of our country.
"You were withdrawn from Lor-

critical days from July 14th to July
18th, you had the honor of being the
only American division to fight in
