Opetitthan in an out-door Grange
gathering. Whore speakers are
considered necc.ssarv to complete

gest that they be selected from

Wo cow have, in alm<»t every
Grange, fit'-riier* who have made
themselves conversant with our
progress and wants, able and
Competent to tako the platform
with credit to themselves and
|>rotit to the order. They need
recognition and encouragement,
%nd uu'ess we cheerfully extend
this encouragement we shall
tjever develop the intellectual
resources that lie idle in the ranks
ot our order. Doubtless some
are not skilled in all the accom-
plishments that please in the
forum, vet 6uch speakers fre-
quently state more practical
truths in a few minutes than
wine of our polished orators will
present in an elaborate speech.
Rome of the most interesing and
Instructive meetings flint have
come to my knowledge have
been those in which there,; had
bjen but little previous prepara-
tion in regard to speakers, where
the Patrons of a neighborhood
with such ot their friends as felt
an interest came together at
some convenient point in a pic-
nic gathering and w:th amuse-
ments, refreshment and such
impromptu addre^es as were
called out by the inspirations of
the hour, made the day one ot
re.il pleasure and long to remem-
ber. Similar gatherings are
within the reach ot all and on
no account should be omitted.
Tlray are important elements in
the growth and prosperity of the
order, and the work of the
'•P
them. I hope tli
in the State will hold
one or more ot these meetings
during the coining autumn, and
that every Patron will partici-
pate. The officers of the State
Grange will render all the a.^sis'
tnnee at their command.
