For the progress of civilization, of Christiani- ty since the 13th century the world owes to them a debt of gratitude. But for the pursuit ef an ideal by these noble men, the world would still be in darkness, the sacrifice of Christ upon the Cross would have become a hollow mockery, women would have been but the objects of |man’s lust and a means of perpetuat-|0f You Wyoming’s best manhood and ing the race. “Thank God they fought for that ideal, died for it, with a purpose that they had not in their minds the hope jof pillage, of reward of jewels and gold, but only the fact that Christ’s death must not have been in vain and from the hands of unbelievers. “They went merrily, they went happily, they went smilingly to meet |the foeman, confident, secure in the|emmment and take the reins in your knowledge that they were fighting for human right. “The vision of the long ago was swept away.
