In this year of 1950 Minnesota enters its second centennial, and we are the heirs of a past that stretches through the three ages of fur trader, pioneer, and maturity to a new era of accomp- lishment.

We can hitch our wagons to our stars, follow them diligently, and let them guide us to success, to a new century of greatness, of peace for our state and for our country.
