FRATERNITY AND CITIZENSHIP TWINS
Tin* following, from the Itcd Men's offi
cial Journal, In n portion of tin Interest Inn
address delivered by Judge J. C. Metliway
oil the occasion of it meeting held In Minne
sota to pay hohor to the deceased members
of the Improved Order of lied Men:
Fraternity and cltlaenshlp are an twins,
that go hand In blind In everything that
makes up. eonntltute* mid exemplifies life;
the word fraternity, as defined by the lexi
con, means brotherhood; not the mere lie-
qiialntuiuvshlp of one with another or the
(-••tuil Interchange of passing events, but It
einbhtces within its definition higher and
nobler principles and examples; It stands,
when properly practiced, for an Intense and
nnceaslnr Interest In the welfare of an
other; mingling of Joys and sorrows, the
slisrlng of troubles and partIclpntIon In
pleasures; It means that we must aid and
uphold and, ns we pus* through this life,
surrounded by all Its disappointments and
he reaumes tils journey through life. I
We are not apt to give the proper credit
to fraternity thut It merits. It eon^H
the disheartened and discouraged «■>
the brilliant rays of sunshine at early
wheu It flashes Its golden tuns ovd
mountain top to kiss and dispel tie
mood dewdrops upon the living carpet of
green; Its sweet harmony Is musical toi
the ear and Ita visible practice Is a stim
ulant tb the algbt, whereby the umtiy good
things of this world appear brighter, and
the discouraging ones sink back Into the|
gloom of oblivion.
