LIBERTY TREE OF THE JUNIOR ORDER
By John T. Boifeuillet

Dalton, Ga, will be the of an inspiring pa
trioc event during the annual state convention of
the Junior Order Of United American Mechanics on
August II and 13 next
This special incident of patriotism will be the
planting Of a liberty tree accompanied by high
ly interesting exercises and impressive ceremonies.
Loyalty to the country and the flag are as dstinc-
tive principles of the Junior Order as are the read
ing of the Bible and the support of the common
schools With the members of this organization re
Igion and education go hand in hand with love of
the republic and devotion TO the Stars and Stripes.
The Junior Order believes that patriotism is not
wild and gttering passion, but glorious rea-
ty." The patriotism which builded this nation so
great and high that it stands today before the eyes
of the world a spectacle of national grandeur and
happiness burns brightly and purely in the heart of
every member of the Junior Order
An Atlanta Citizens Loyalty
As example of the lofty spirit of patriotism
breathed by the Junior Order, will mention that
resolution by Atlanta S loyal citizen, w H. Johnson,
that the national flag fly from the municipal build
years ago by the city council 1t is also interesting
to note that Mr.. johnson, as chairman of the flag
committee of the Junior Order, has assisted in pre-
sentng flags to many of the public schools of Allan
ta and he has helped in raising these embems of
American liberty the school buildings The
Junior Order rightfully believes that the gorgeous
ensign of our country freedom should float over
every school building in this land while the schools
are in session. as an object lesson in patriotism to
our children and as ga symbol of the world that
we consider these structures ''the fortress of our
strength from which to 60 forth the forces that are
the best protectors of our free Institutions
Chairman Johnson and all of his fraternal col
leagues are strong and firm in their conviction that
the blood must flow sluggishly indeed in the veins
Of that Georgian who can look upon the Stars and
Stripes huttering out brisky the breeze over the
municipal and school buildings, without love OF
country and pride of his state.

at Dalton to flourish around the United States for

An oath-Bound Organization

The bound political organization, Sons of
10 or the ''Order of the Star Spanged Banner,
came into existence in 1852 Later into this society
were merged the Order of United American Mechan-
les the Sons of America the Brotherhood of the I'm
ion, the Junior Order of United American Mechan-
les and other societies. The combined organization
was practically the American party, whose members
protesting to outsiders not to know anything about
it, were generally called the Know NOthngs' and
hence the Know Nothing party, which was quite
popular for while at the north and in the south as
wen, there being a number of very prominent Geor
gians enrolled.
The Order of the Star Spangled Banner" com
menced to decline in 1856 and was entirely obitera-
led with the commencement of the War Between the
States Following the close of that memorable con-
fic the Order of United American Mechanics, the
Junior Order of United American Mechanics, the
Sons of America and the Brotherhood of the Union
were resuscitated. These orders became known as
the "Bg -Four" and in the race for popularity the
Junior Order took the lead.
The state councillor is Mr.. j. P Marchant high
ly esteemed citizen of Columbus and the vice-coun-
cilor is that popular Savannahian Mr.. w. S. Blan-
ton. The other state officers and permanent com
mitteemen are loyal Georgians

understand that the planting Of the tree will be
attended by spectacular features not the least
striking of which will be procession of beautiful
girls attred in the national colors of red white and
blue This striking parade will be headed by Co

senting the original thirteen American colonies,
prominent among whom will be our own Georgia
A Parade of Beauty
Following this contingent will come forty eight
lovely girls representing the states of the union,
each carrying flag, and handful of the soil from
the state which she represents and marching to the
inspiring strains of some national air, will pass
to the liberty tree and deposit the earth at the roots
Surely, moving picture should be taken of this
impressive and beautiful display of national patri-
otism.
The womans auxiliary, Daughters of America,
will meet at Dalton at the time of the state conven-
ton of the Junior Order The local chapter and
council of the organization will entertain the visit
ing delegates. All present will participate in the
planting Of the liberty tree
| am informed that the membership of the Junior
Order is increasing throughout the state and the
public There are said to be more than four thou
sand members in Atlanta. During the life of the
organization in the United States it has paid out
around thirteen million dollars in sick and funeral
benefits to members and their benefciaries
When the Order Was Organized
The Junior Order of United American Mechanics
came into existence in 1858 AT Germantown, Pa 1t
is the child of the mother body, known as the Order
of United American Mechanics, which was formed
in 1915, at Philadelphia as patriotic political be
nevoent secret society. Eight years later, what is
now called the Junior Order of United American
ization and, according to my information, the child
has greatly outgrown the parent far exceeding it in
members influence, prosperity and popularity.
The word Junior" was given to distinguish the
order from the senior organization. The child is
thus distinctively designated from the mother The
branch was separated from the tree.
The name Mechanics, so | have read, was used

some that only mechanics workngmen-are eligi

Something to
Think 4b0uf
SCALING HEIGHTS

UOU may often be filled with Won
4 der at the apparent ease with
which some of your friends, Of no
pronounced ability, climb steadily and
unerringIy to the heights.
To your mind they are deficient In
mentality and power Of endurance,
yet, in spite of your doubts, they keep
mounting surely day by day. brushing
aside difficulties with no observable
effort and holding fast to their places.
Opposing forces do not daunt or
discourage them.
They plan and execute. They re-
frain from boosting, yet within their
hearts there is an ironlfke resolution
to stay in the fight until they meet
victory.
Often they are footsore, exhausted
lin body and spirit. but never are they
in mood to admit defeat. They
know quite as well as you that their
talents are limited and their faults
many. 1t is this conscious knowledge
Of their frailties that makes them per-
sist without pause in their commend
able effort.
While you are having jolly times at
night among the bright lights, they
are seeking in the solitude Of their
room the precious nuggets of wisdom,
digging deep below the surface.
They have become students Of BIZ
ography, following seriously the
bazed trails Of the noble men and
women who only a few years ago
passed over the highway to fame and
left their signboards at the fatal cross
roads, where all later travellers may
stop, read and gather new courage
1t must be shallow sort of human
being indeed who cannot see the value
Of such observation and study.
But whatever 1t may be with regard
to the frivolous and fun-loving, this
idea of following step by step the
rugged paths of the great, striving to
comprehend their emotions and to
emulate their examples, is not only
profitable to the earnest student but
extraordinarily inspiring.
What dullard seeking Improvement
fails to find encouragement in reading
of such men as Washington and Lin
coin?
Who does not glow with inspiration
when he beholds blind Milton cropping
his way to the heights sublime2
Those who cry impossible" are
those who need most to familiarize
themselves with the trials Of the i'm
mortals who overcame and won i'm
perishable crowns.
