| | Intl Order of Foresters |
 | | In the Order, as a whole, each Court must work in harmony with every other Court in spreading the beneficent works of Forestry to the uttermost ends of the earth, so that all mankind, irrespective of creed, color or nationality, may finally be embraced in its membership, and call their fellows brothers. |
 | | The three colors, Scarlet, Gold and Lincoln Green, typify the virtues inherent in Forestry, namely, Unity, Benevolence, and Concord, and the letter stands for the word of a Forester, which is the corner stone on which the whole structure is reared. |
 | | Though centuries have passed since their time, their deeds of bravery, their skill in Forestry, and their acts of charity are still the theme of many a song and story. |
