Citizens OF the various States living

more than a fonrth of q century. but
II is only In the past five years that
these state societies have leaped f"r-

they admittedly form an lnfiuenual

make the pleaSan;eat part OF theit

these now powerful ana commanding
bodies originated mOdeStly and quite
logically from the desire Of home
sick sons and daughters Ot the Varl-
Gus commonwealth to get together
and proclaim the Gl"rIss OF one bright
particular star in tn constellation
which makes the Union. From these
informal meetings TO prate OF our
