WHY AND HOW? The problem of how to have a bigger, better and stronger union is a very difficult one for us to solve. It does not matter into what country or among what race or religion calamity may come they must have unity and the help of a union. The first thing to think about is, what kind of men and women our leaders are to be. They must be men and women of good common sense and sound judgement, who know the thing to foe done and do it without flinching. Able and energetic leaders they must be, since most of the responsibility of the union will foe on their shoulders. We must have leaders in whom we have the utmost confidence and whom the people respect and love. Men of good intelligence, who are loyal to the core. We can never have a strong union if our leaders are narrow minded and stubborn and unwise. We must have men of great courage, great perseverance and a great capacity for leadership. Our leaders must have great will power since will power accomplishes wonders. Our union will not be complete unless we have leaders that can understand the people and who can go ahead and do their duty. In this problem we must also think of the members or the people of the union. The people must be true and must not betray the confidence of the union. We must have members who are not timid and are not jealous schemers. We must have men and women in our union who are daring fighters of dauntless courage, and who are people of iron will. How can we have a better and stronger union if our members are not people of courage, who perservere in the task set before them ? To form a union there .must be an agreement 'between the people and the officers. We cannot have a bigger or better union unless we all join hands and cooperate. We must be very thorough and painstaking in our task of making a better union and we must go about making close observations of our work. Let our object be our union and by the blessing of God may it become bigger, better and stronger. Our work in the union must be swift and alert. We must be sincere Christians and reliable in every way. We must all labor for the common welfare of our union. If our people are to be protected and united we must strengthen our union. We must bring all those who have withdrawn from the union back as easily and quickly as possible and be ready to welcome them back. We must have more missionaries who have a lively interest in the spiritual welfare of the children of the world and who would try to teach them the principles of Christianity and unity. In order to do this they must have the support of the union. Many of the people do not know the importance of unity, therefore, we must explain the whole matter to them in a plain and simple way. We must have great men or orators to arouse the ambition of the people and to store their minds with knowledge. We should have “an army” of teachers to help in the education of the people, men of courtesy, sympathy and patience. The making of a better, bigger and stronger union is the noblest work of our lives. Our union may be better by giving the same rights to the members as to the leaders or officers. We must also reform the people and draw them into our union. The reason for our task is to have a bigger, better and stronger union for peace, prosperity and honor of our native country. May I truthfully say here, as Henry Clay the great American orator said, that “if anyone washes to know the leading object of my life, the preservation of a bigger and better union will furnish him the Key.” A union cannot be formed in a twinkling of an eye but we must woik for it. If we do not succed at first we must try and try again. It is said that those who labor on the earth for the union of the world are the chosen people of God.
