Richland has always paid spoch i attention to the educational and ri ligious Influences of her clti/.enshi| She looks upon the linnie, tho selim and the church as the very bos foundations of our government. bot national and Slate. Leave lindon any ono of these, and tin* vow foin dations of our nation will begin t decay. The influence of tho home of this community has been distinc ly that of a Christian home. The pe? pie here have attended church we as far back as we can remember, an (he ministers of tho Cospel have a ways boon welcome visitors in tiles homes.

If we wished to fire tl blood of Richland and raise a slur Ol' indignation wo would attempt pul up a bar-room in your midst. \\ would be pul out ol' your mids! short order. As long as you keep ? wicked Influences ont of this coi munity, and plant and cultivate tl seeds of truth and rightooiisnc?

Another thing wo do nol Ll)11 you fully appreciate. There is purer Anglo-Saxon blood in i world (han we lind in our bolov Southland, and especially In tl community. This rice seems to Cod's ?hosen peopb lo OVRngcl! tho world. As long as we keep ll race pure our Southland will prr per, and wo think lt has the brigl est prospect of any pari of these U\ ted Stiites. The present generali of the South cannot appreciate the struggle of tho one that is now pass ing from tho stage of action. Thou sands of Southern soldiers carno home from the Civil War In 18G5 and found their families with not enough bread to keep them alive for two months, and tho widows and or phans of those who shed their blood on the Hold of honor added to this awful picture. That struggle for ex. istonce has passed, we hope, for ever. This community is rich-not so much lu money, but in natural re sources, In the morality"of its peo ple, in native intellect, in energy and will power. Use these intelligently and prosperity will continue to dwell in your midst. We feel sure Rich land has given our country more ed ucated men and women than any other town or community in Oconeo county. This shows what bas been her stand In regard to education. Now it is tip to you as citizens of Richland to keep up Ibis most excel lent record on this vital question. in thinking ovor the citizenship ot Richland as far back as we eau re member WO cannot recall a single Instance of a native of this commu nity who bas been convicted ol* crime or even accused of crime. Every cit izen herc to-day should feel proud of this very remarkable record and look well to tho reason for this record. The reason is this: You have re moved the temptations from the youth and cultivated those things that stand tor truth and righteous ness. We know not tho possibil il les of tl boy Ol' girl, so let us keep their minds and souls away from wicked influences and direct them to higher and nobler things. Temperate, god I) lives aro conducive to long pros perous and happy life. School interests in our country are advancing. The youth of to-day have many advantages (hat were not available to the youth that attended the old academy that stood near thc? church, lt was the effort of Richland to gel the best teachers available Ilten and women who were educated and refined. May it ever be so with tlneu- entrusted with Ibis very im portant duty here at Richland. Do not let ;i few dollars si >nd in tin1 way in ibis great work, but show the world that Richland Academy in tends to keep up ber high record on this g rea I question of education. There are others here to-day who will address you. so we shall now give place lo them; bul before we close we shall ask you to look well to your homes, your school and the religious influences of your continu nlty, and we feel sure, ir you will do this, all will be well willi the citi zenship of Richland.
