First sentence: Annually, when members of the Native Sons of the Golden West install their statewide officers (called "grand" officers), they are reminded that "some of the most beautiful traditions are kept alive by these [parades], and they should be conducted with an imposing dignity in keeping with the widespread expectations of a people whose love tor the past is reflected in the Order of the Native Sons of the Golden West."
