The first number on the speaking program was that of introduction by dudge Christianson who spoke of the memories of our land, calling atten- tion to the sesquicentennial of the Declaration of Independence and ti centennial anniversary of the death of Thomas Jefferson.

He also referred to the setting forth of General Custer on his ill fated expedition in 187 almost a hundred years after the revolution. Reads Messages He read messages which were sent to him from President Coolidge, Secretary of War Davis, and Sec! tary of the Interior Hubert Wo: after which he introduced the spe representative of the war departm Major General B. A. Poore, who de seribed our heritage from Custer. “The Army has always stood as the strong arm of the Government,” declared General Poore. “In former times it was our ad- vance guard and le possible the winning of our great Western Em- pire.” Coming into more modern times, General Poore pointed out the fune- tion of the army at resent, as train school for citizenship, es furnishing instructors in time of need to the various training camps, to the militia and the reserve corp and as being the backbone of our n: tional defense. He declared that the army turns out into civil life every year, thirty or forty thousand men, who make useful citizens and who are better citizens because they have been in the army. He coneluded by observ- ing that the army has served the country well and deserves well of the both in war and in. peace. those gallant officers and men whose memory we honor toda: and like the gallant Six Hundred at Balaklava, it «« “Theiry not to rea- son why: theirs but to do and die,” he concluded. . s Indian Talks The address of General Poore was followed by a short speech delivered in Indian by “No Two Horns,” a scout and mail carrer of the’ old days who first saw “Old Glory” fiy- ing over the buttlements of Fort Abraham Lincoln. The old Indian delivered hi in the Indian language, Major A. Welch acting as inte ter. Said, “Two Hoi after some account of his youth, “I brave as you. You had to send me with the mail through places where it was dangerous to go. “When I sent my young men across the ocean to defend my country, I did a great thing. They did not have to go.
