inV sons, the select men ol tne repuo
11c. going 'over there." They are "bone of
our bone, flesh of our flesh, blood of our
blood.' We may - ell be proud of them
these men chosen because of their
superior fitness to beat serve the re
public. "All our great camp fires of the past
year have been two-wars' war meeting.
Their purpo.se has not been more to
honor the men who have fought the bat
tles of the past, than to inspire men who
are to fight the battles of the present.
"Glowing tributes haye been paid to
the great men of the Civil war: to
Abraham Lincoln, America's greaiest
president ; to Kdwin M. Stanton, the
great iron-hearted secretary -of war. ana
to Ulysses S. Grant, the peerless leader
of men, and ever the favor of heaven
has been evoked ihat wc may have theii
hl-eness in a Woodrow Wilson, a New
ton D. Baker and a John J. Pershing." j
The commander-in-chief reviewed the ;
achievements of the legislative committee :
in obtaining a one-cent rate per mile to
attend the encampment, in securing for
nearly all pensioners a substantial in
crease under the age and service act, and ;
expressed his deep obligation to the sen-
ators and representatives as well a-? G. j
A. R. members who made possible the j
enactment of the law.
"Army of the Grand Republic"
He paid tribute to the1 army nurses of
the Civil war. the members or the
Woman's Relief Corps, the Ladies of
the Grand Army of the Republic. Daugh
ters of Veterans and Sons of Veterans :
In conclusion he declared :
"When Prusslanism shall have been
crushed, our sons 'and our sons' sons
will return to us from over the sea with
th- untarnished banners Of the republic.
It will be then that the survivors of the
world's greatest war will organize, not
the Sons of Veterans, and not a new
Grand Army of the Republic, but the
'Army of the Grand Republic' the re
public their fathers saved the republic
their eons have glorified. Then, and not
until then, will our sons come to their
own."
i Reports of the different committees
were made. The statement of Quarter
master General D. R. Stowltz showed
that on January 1, 1918. there w&s ' a

the work done by the G. A. R. in the
organization of Red Cross work, adop
tion of. French orphans, decoration of
churches and headquarters with Old
ilory and service flags and the singing
'of patriotic songs! j
"From the various department reports j
I find that the veterans of the Civil wa-r i
and their wives have bought nearlv j
