Following the selection of “Our Native Land,” by the quartet, Exalter Ruler Foster presented Attor. ney James G. Connolly of Pawtucket. R. I, esteemed lecturing knight of lodge 920, who delivered the principal address of the evening. Mr. Connolly, in opening, remarked that it was very fitting and appropri- ate that the great order of Elks so universally and so generally celebrates v, and it was likewise fitling and proper that the order should join hands with the Grand Army veterans in commemorating the birth of national emblem. He went on to give a short history of the adoption of the flag, and the changes in it before tie readoption of the original thirteen stripes and the declsion to have a star for each state. “Yet the mind does not dwell on the flag,” the speaker pointed out, ‘“not on the inexpen: piece of bunting nor on the priceless piece of silk. but rather on the nation itself. The flag represents the nation. When we gaze upon the Italian flag we see a united Italy; when we behold the German emblem we see Imperial Germany: when the French tricolor is unfurled Wwe see France; when the green and gold of Erin rolls out to the hreeze, we see a nation which waged a ceaseless fight for liberty; when we see the crosses of St. George and St. Andrew, we see the great monarchy of England. And when we sea the Stars and Stripes, we see America,— America, the foe of despotism and | oppression, the friend of hope and !progr the land of liberty and op- | portunity. The flag is the symbol of | our national life. Tt is the sign of | our hopes and fears, our smiles and | tears, our endeavors and aspirations, | our association and reward. Tt means | what Lexington and Concord, Bunker | Hill and Valley Forge, Saratoga and | Yorktown meant. It is the fAag of | Barry and Jones, of Peary and Mc- | Donough, of Farragut and Dewey.

Connolly said that ~al and Ssuspicious one urged that there was need of fearless, irreproachable leaders in walks of life. And in this connection he pointed out that neither the ar nor the layman has a of responsibiilty. ~ We should not be of the east or south or west, we should not be of one creed or party, we should respect and revere our for fathers and our fatherlands, to be sure, but if there was a message need- ed today it was that which Patrick Henry sent from Virginia to Massa- chusetts when he heard of Lexington and Concord, “I am not I am an American.” If it that wrong appears to be winning victory, the speaker reminded his au- dience that though right and justice may lose a battle, they never lost war, and if they are not in place they are in power and must make their influsia. the is appears the Continuing said: “t he necessarily and the is not the blustering who are patriots; it is not merely soldier and sailor. Often, the work, the creating of a the moulding of an enthusiasm, the casting of a conviction, done by the quietly and unobservedly power- ful. Calm but confident, patient but firm, they go about adjusting, con- trolling, elevating, perpetually prov- ing that the unscen is everlasting. So we should realize there is all of us to do and that every trifle helps. We should pledge ourselves to do our part in lifting America above the pit of pride and indepen- dence, above the mire of doubt and distrust, steadily upward to those heights which its builde foresaw it should reach and attain. The new organ at the Elks home contributed its part last evening to- ward making the affair a success, and in the capable hands of Professor Bishop, its sweet strains added greatly to the program.
