The Sons of the American Revolu
tion and their friends celebrated the
one hundred and forty first anniver
sary of the battles of Lexington ind
Concord with a banquet last evening at
me .uarion hotel, with an attendance ot
sixty-seven. Present as their guests
were Theodore E. Burton, former sen
ator from Ohio; Governor Withycombe,
Wallace McCamant, of Portland, presi
dent of the Oregon chapter of the S. A.
R. 'ind distinguished guests represent
ing the state and city.
W'inthrop Hammond, who has been
instrumental in the organizing of a lo
cal chapter in Salem, presided as toast
master. Preceding tile buiupiet, a re
ception was held in which Senator Bur
ton was introduced.
The paper of the evening was read
by Prof. F. S. (iannet, principal of the
Washington junior high, in which
he dealt with the social and economic
causes of the Revolution, and the vari
ous acts of shortsightedness of the
Knglish government which finally
brought the American colonies into re
bellion, although at first they had no
thought of separation from the mother
country.
"I cannot tell you how hippy we are
to break into Salem, " said Wailace .Mc
Camant, president of the Oregon soci
ety. "We .ire now assured of a pros
perous chapter, through tho efforts ot'
Mr. Hammond."
Mr. McCamant explained the obicct
of the Sous of the American Revolution,
the perpetuating of the n.nnes of men
and women who fought and worked for
American independence. Also to dulv
impress those who are inade citizens by
naturalization with the responsibilities
of citizenship. Another object of the
society, said Mr. .McCamant, is to aid
in distributing literature of a patriotic
nature and to pln-e these books in the
state library where they nuiv be sent
into all parts of the state. 'Winthrop
Hammond was complimented by Mr.
MeCamunt on his address at the anni
versary banquet of the ltattle of Bunk
er Hill, delivered in Portltnd some time
ago. "The habit of hero worsliio
should be encouraged, as the greatest
story is of the men who aided am!
fought for our independence, concluded
.Mr. McCamant.
Governor Witliyeonihe welcomed Sen
ator Burton as a friend of Oregon as
he had shown himself interested in our
we. .'.ire when chairman of the rivers
and lurhor committee while in the
House of Representatives. "Hi.t
now," said the eovemor. "I want, to
emphasize the appeal for a nobler ami
nigner patriotism, like that of our fore
fathers who fought in the Revolution
ary war. There was never a time when
we needed red blooded men more than
now. We are cint routed with gre.it
problems, but I believe that America
will he able to solve them in a patriotic
wav. "
