We extend to the visiting Knights, a sincere welcome and to the memhers of Kekionga congratulations for having reached the half century mile stone. Today is important for your organization and we sincerely hope the weather will not interfeie with your plans to make it the biggest day in your history. Fifty years seem a long time looking forward but those who are old enough to glance backward a half century find that it has passed quickly and that the achievements which seem almost like a dream, have come because of the splendid foundation of the order and the loyalty of those who have builded. The Knights of Pythias stand for progress, (for helping one another, for assisting the community in which v they live, for distributing kindness and optimism and for the lessons of brotherly love, so well told in the story of “Damon and Pythias.’’ The original charter of tbu lodge contains the names of men who were then leading citizens here. Os these but three are living, namely. Frederit k Schafer and Alex R. 801 l of this city and C. T. Dorwiu of Lafayette. The local order has grown continuous ly and now numbers more than three hundred. One of their achievement? was the building of the lodge home on Third street a decade ago and that home has become a community center of which we have all been proud. Your work has but begun Knights and we hope you go on in (he splendid task which is yours, that you continue to thus collectively aid your city and county and state and the citizens of the commonwealth. We bid you all welcome today,— Senator Watosn, state officers of the order and visiting members and friends. The city is yours and we only ask that you feel at home and that you return as frequently as you can and remain as long as you will. 11 11 ' - * I SENATOR WATSON:— One of the speakers for today's Knights of Py'thitis ( celebratjcvt '3James E.

Victor F. Lawson, of the Chicago Daily News, recognized as one of the world's leading editors died last night following a two day illness with heart trouble. For fifty years he has been connected with the wonderful newspaper which he nd Melvin E. Stone established. He lias been an incessant worker, a wise and generous business man who

built well. Brilliant, fearless, a natural leader, an organizer and a loyal American business man of the school of his time, he did much for the people of his city anil his nation. His work will live. The travel bureau of the Hoosier State Auto Association is making a great effort to sell Indiana to tourists and are succeeding. Cards bearing the invitation —“Come to Indiana —All Hoosierdom invites you" have been posted in public places in every nook and corner of the United States. The cards tell of the beauty of Indiana with her lakes aud hills and rivers and shady woods and make thousands hunger for a trip 'to this state made famous by the “Banks of the Wabash' and the poems of James Whitcomb Riley and others.’ This is a funny country with a lot of queer people. We commit more crimes and we are gentler ’ with criminals than any other country, we are harder in business yet wo give more to charity, wo specialize on jungle muijU: and weird dancing and wo go into Jlysterics when jungle origin is mentioned. Gosh, no wonder folks in other countries can't understand us, we cau't figure it out ourselves.

Lad in your 'teens, ami the whole world before you. With numberless pleasures awaiting your touch. And somewhere a maiden, who'll meet to adore you. Hark to your father who loves yon so much: Go to that futur.-. prepare to enjoy But know that you carry the power to destroy it. Go with the hope to be happy, but knowing That not at the moment is Happiness made: That never is reaping before tbere is sowing, And never stays faith where a trust is betrayed; CMit there for your future you may go to a duel. And the rules are Iml few, but my boy. they arc cruel!

Your future shall try you. siia’l tempt you. shall burn you With fires of mad fury, but be you serene * And never let-fortune or fair woman turn you From ways that arc open, and honest and clean; Take all the delights'-which the right will afford you, And life to the end will uphold and reward you.
