“MOOSEHEART”
By Hon. Jonn J. Lentz, Ex-Congressman of Ohio.
Less than eight years ago there
were only 247 members 'in the Order.
Four years ago, when we elected an
Ohio man Supreme Dictator, Hon. E.
E. Tanner, of Columbus, at the Bal
timore Convention, we had a little ov
er 100,000 members. Today we num
ber our membership by a million.
We are a cosmopolitan fraternity,
but we are going to go faster than
all the fraternities put together. Two
hundred forty-seven members, the
cloud no larger than a man’s hand,
has already overspread the whole sky.
And this order has everything that
any of the older fraternities has and
it has one thing that not one of them
ever dreamed of having, and that is
Mooseheart.
We are proud of every family that
is identified with the Order and we
are the envy of every order, we are
leaving them in the distance. There
are only two orders that have a larg
er membership today, and in two
more years there will be no order
on the face of the earth that will
have as large a membership as the
Loyal Order of Moose.
The men who are making this or
der great are the men who are ask
ing: “How much can I give to the
Loyal Order of Moose for the benefit
of my neighbors and my neighbors’
children?”
Teachers will he at Mooseneari 10
train their minds and their hearts
in a better way than the average
home. With all due regard for the
average home, we shall have as good
mothers, as good teachers and as good
masters of the situation ajs there
will be found on the face of the
■ earth. The teachers will not be giv
en a place for charity, they will be
selected with the view only of se
curing the best teachers for the best
*■ children on the face of the earth—
the children of Moosedom. And it is
none too good for the children of the
Moose.
Is It Worth a Dollar?
We are going to select the best
teachers and apply to them the best
possible tests we can; but we are not
only going to teach and train these
children, hut at Providence, R. I.,
a few weeks ago our Supreme Coun
cil and Trustees, sitting in confer
ence there voted seventeen children
from North Dakota and Pennsylvania
Into Moosebeart; and among these
children were two little children, baby
girls, from Pittsburg, three months
old. Do you not think that that alone
is enough of a picture to show you
what sort of an insurance company
we are building up upon the commer
cial side for the Loyal Order of
Moose? Do you not think that the
one dollar a year that you pay into
the treasury of that institution is in
suring a good deal along the line of
when It proposes to have the chil
dren taken care of in such an insti
tution housed in a magnificent build
ing, with its thousand acres of land,
to which further additions are to be
made as needed. We shall build cot
tages through the work of these boys
and girls. These cottages will have
carpenters, stone masons, bricklayers,
plumbers, electricians, house furnish
ers and house decorators. In them
you can Jive during your superannu
ated old age together with your wives.
Mother will uo, i oo
We are big enough and broad
enough not simply to think of the
men who are broken down, superan
nuated and decrepit, but also of the
good wife, who has been a comrade
of the man for twenty or maybe fifty
years. She is not to be left at home.
She is not to be put under the care
of strangers. Both of them will fin
ish their days midst the music and
the flowers and the hum of industry.
There they will become godfathers,
reciting their traditions, and humming
their old tunes to the little fellows
and the little girls that you will be
sending there to make life worth liv
ing in their old age. No longer en
joying the associations with friends
of their youth, they will have a new
generation of friends about them,
mayhap better than any they had at
home in their younger days.
Equality At Mooteheart.
In Mooseheart we will put the boys
and girls on a basis of equality. On
one side of the great plaza will be
cottages for the girls; on the other
side, cottages for the boys. We will
build there great halls for the sci
ences, for manual training, educa
tional halls, dance halls and moving
picture balls, where there may be
shown on the screen all the lands, all
the animals, all the industries, all the
scientific beauties of this world. It
will be an Institution that will be
educational along all lines.
We expect there to develop the
beautiful girlhood and womanhood.
We expect to teach the boys and
girls how to do everything that will
fit them to properly fill their stations
in life. We expect to teach more
than theory, we expect to teach them
performance. The boy’s diploma will
mean not ionly that he knows how,
but that he has already built an au
tomobile, or that he has run a print
ing plant, 'Or that the girl knows how
to take charge of a household and
handle it us a scientific housekeeper,
learned in domestic science; or to
take charge of a tailoring establish
ment, or a ladies’ dressmaking es
tablishment on scientific lines. That
is what we puc'nlse to do.
This is a Debt.
You owe It to yourself, to your
children, and to your neighbors, to
give them an opportunity to become
tall, intellectually, morally and spir
itually. We believe that this is the
mission of Moosedom. We believe
that the Loyal Order of Moose will
enlist men and women under its
standard by the hundreds and thou
sands, and we will have two million
members, and if each one of those
members will contribute a dollar a
year to Mooseheart we will have a
university greater than any university
in the United States. There are on
ly ten states in the union that con
tribute as much as a million a year
to a university. Eight of them con
tribute more than that. But if we
succeed in doing what we expect to
do, we will have more than two mil
lion dollars a year to put into Moose
Leart, and we will make it larger
and greater than any university in
the world. Professor Hart, of Harvard,
says that Mooseheart, if constructed
on the plans now projected will be
the greatest institution on the face
of the globe.
We are going to build the grandest
institution, we are going to build the
grandest manhood and the grand
est womanhood that the world has
ever known. We will not look back
to the times of Rome and say, “He
was the noblest Roman of them all,”
but we are going to create in the
minds of the children the highest con
ceptions of human possibility of
achievement, so that we can turnout
from Mooseheart young men' and
young women who will be the noblest
Americans of them all—graduates
from Moosedom, graduates—from
Mooseheart—from the Moose Univer
sity and Home.
