You have established great war charities, you have helped to fill the national treasury with your contributions to the various liberty loans and you have sent your dearest and best to bear the heat and brunt of battle. _ "Your order has ever shown its steadfast devotion to American principles and American ideals. You are Knights of Columbus, a name of great significance, representing not only a great discovery, but the eternal principles of all discovery and progress.

There is no finer Knighthood. “In it your noble order stands resisting all evil consult, supporting every patriotic cause, following the eternal principle that 'the truth shall make you free.”
