The writer cannot let this opportunity pass to thank the officers and mem- 
bers of the society for the ready and earnest co-operation on their part which 
makes the duties of the secretary so continuously an agreeable one. 
With 
such aid and encouragement there is scant excuse for not attaining results. 
It is this heartiness with which the units of this organization take h 
gether that has given it such a reputation for strength and service 
old to- 
in our 
state and, in a measure, throughout the country. We shall continue, no 
doubt, to deserve this in the purposeful acceptance of whatever new re- 
sponsibilities the progress of our work may bring to us. In union such as 
ours lies a force certain to achieve results.
