This Centennial day brings evidence to us of the wisdom and foresight of the Fathers of this National Government.

Expressed by a Patriot. The Union, one and inseparable. Free as to all our indi vidual rights and with no encroachment upon our rights as citizens of Illinois, or of any other State Subject to the universal law of civilization, which requires restraint on the actions of individuals, in furtherance and protection of the general good of our fellow men. Long may we love, cherish and protect our United States, and love with our hearts' devotion the Flag of our Fathers, the emblem of our great and glorious nation, renowned to earth's remotest bounds.
