"The Grange is a family where the father's manhood, the mother's
devotion, the brother's affection, and the sister's love are so
cultivated and developed that they reach out beyond the preview of the
family circle, and embrace with fraternal kindness to every member of
the Order, practically obeying the injunction of our Savior when He
said: "Thou shalt love they neighbor as theyself." This is the
fellowship of the noblest character."
