Foster True Patriotism will

the August OAR Magazine.
The theme comes from the
OAR constitution in the section
enunciating major detectives of
the national society, she pointed
out.

American history, we need to
give marked study to true patri-
otism and exert every effort ]
to foster the highest type Of
patriotic effort for our Repub-
