2 ,7 n I on his work in the Legion of the
state.
Mr. Curtiss in his address opened
with an appreciation of the spirit of
I friendship among men ami commun-
fricndly
purchase
I and which was real and lasting and
! not a thing lightly to be passed by.
It was this spirit of friendly co-op-eration
that struck home a real mean
ing and made communities great or
little as the personal effort of the
individual was exerted. The thought
jwas that of the old j'ungle law that
the pack was as strong as the wolf
and the wolf as strong as the pack
land so with the communities, they
were strong if the individual efforts
were great and the community weak
i if the individual was lacking in their
'spirit of work and co-operation. The
(speaker gave a very wonderful trib-
ute to the pioneers of the west and
: particularly of Nebraska where th
: sacrifices of the early residents here
had made the state as great as It
is today. Those who had come here
in the pioneer day had none of the
luxuries that we enjoy today but I
, their great spirit of sacrifie-e war
what had made the state as great as
it was. The speaker recited a niim
other resources that made the state
one o? the greatest in the Union of
states. Mr. Curtiss urged his hearers
to believe Nebraska, talk Nebraska
boost Nebraska and take a real pride
in the state where there was oppor
tunity to gain life and wealth in the
products of the soil and where the
people were the finest in the world.
It was co-operation, everlasting boost
ing and effort that made the work of
selling the state to the world and
which was one of the things the Ne
braska people should do. The fine
cities of the state were inducements
for home3 and right living and
among whom the speaker gave Platts
mouth a notable place.
In his closing Mr. Curtiss touch
ed on the matter of the agitation to
stop military training in the state
university and defended the proposi
tion on the grounds that it was not
an attempt to create a military spirit
but to make a more thoroughly equip
ped force of men with "knowledge of
defense in case of warfare rather
than to foster a war spirit. The
speaker pointed out the fact that
thousands of American lives had been
lost in the world war because of lack
of real training .which was demand
ed in time of stress. With danger
threatening it was time to keep a
spirit of civic preparedness in the na
tion and the small measure that the
university had given in the military
drill was not a step toward war but
for being prepared with the proper
knowledge in time of national stress.
Mr. Curtiss also briefly touched on
