"What an object lesson of peace is shown today by our two countries to all the world. No grim-faced fortifications mark our frontiers, no huge battleships patrol our dividing waters, no stealthy spies lurk in our tranquil border hamlets. Only a scrap of paper, recording hardly more than a simple understanding, safe-guards lives and properties on the Great Lakes, and only humble mile posts mark the inviolable boundary line for thousands of miles through farm and forest."
"Our protection is in our fraternity, our amour is our faith; the tie that binds more firmly year by year is ever-increasing acquaintance and comradeship through interchange of citizens; and the compact is not of perishable parchment, but of fair and honorable dealing, which, God grant, shall continue for all time."
Erected by Kiwanis International in the memory of a great occasion in the life of two sister nations. Here on July 26, 1923, Warren Gamaliel Harding, twenty-ninth President of the United States of America, and first President to visit Canada, Charter Member of the Kiwanis Club of Marion, Ohio, spoke words that are worthy of record in lasting granite dedicated September 16, 1925.

  • Love this tune!

    Cool shot of you at the end..

    Keep up the great work!

  • Thank you.  This was part of a University project to document one local memorial. I chose this memorial because practically nobody had ever heard of it or knew where it was, so it was like discovering a forgotten part of history.

  • Thank you again for your comment. Alas, they have taken away my sound on another old video. This time, instead of taking the video away and asking me to delete the sound they just went ahead and deleted the audio track :(

see all
