thie department for his splendid work
In instilling in tha minds of the young
people of Oregon, sentiments of patriot
ism and loyalty to the Nation and re
epect and love for the flag of our

privileges as other members enjoy.

Preparednen la Keynote
The keynote of all the sessions of the
various branches of the encampment
was preparedness. Everywhere declara
tions for a stronger Army and Navy
lor National defense were received
iwith cheers.
The thought of peace was constantly
present throughout the session. It was
embodied in the res61utions adopted by
the veterans of the Civil War. But,
more vital, than peace If it must be
without honor they urged the training
of every American boy that he may be
able to do his full share in defense of
his home and country.
In a single declaration those who
wore the blue put themselves on rec-
era: we believe in and will encour
age military drill in our schools and
some adaptation of the Swiss system
as a means of promoting physical de
velopment, obedience to authority,
courtesy and self-respect, preparing
our sons not to be soldiers necessarily,
but self-respecting citizens,' loving
their country and able and ready to
defend it when necessary."
Itanka Are Smaller.
The veterans were impressed this
year with the death rate within- their
ranks. Adjutant-General C. A. Will
lams' report revealed that 164 mem
bers of the department had died since
the last encampment at McMlnnville.
The present membership of the organ
ization in Oregon is 1842, he stated. The

present.
C. G. Deerland, 84. of Roseburg, drove

19 members of his regiment living, he
aald. Now there are 11.
