"Only Burlington-Northern Pacific serves three of Yellowstone's famous gateways Gardiner Cody and Red Lodge and only Burlington - Northern Pacific offers a choice of three scenic routes to or from the Park. The most direct service to Yellowstone is via the Route of the North Coast Limited through St. Paul-Minneapolis Minnesota wooded farmlands the Bad Lands of North Dakota and the ranch country of Montana." - p.5. The Northern Pacific Railway was not only the first railroad to build a branch line to the park boundary to the North Entrance at Gardiner but it also provided service to the last entrance which was opened to the park the Northeast Entrance In addition the Northern Pacific was heavily involved in the development of the hotel facilities in the park. The involvement of the Northern Pacific with the park dates back to 1870 with the exploration of the park by the Washburn Expedition. According to legend the party concluded that the natural wonders should be preserved as a national park. Nathaniel Pitt Langsford who was on the expedition publicized the wonders he had seen in the park on his return to the East Coast and Jay Cooke financier for the Northern Pacific Railroad hired him as a publicist to obtain financial support for his railroad and to promote the park.

1957réf. 351059Honolulu: Supreme Council of EFB Students 1957. 4p. 8.5x11 inch newsletter toned along edges splitting along the spinefold. Hilario Camino Moncado established the Filipino Federation of America in 1925 in Los Angeles California. It was also known at various times as the Filipino World Federation and the Filipino Crusaders World Army. As one of the fraternal organizations appealing to the small but growing Filipino immigrant community the FFA distinguished itself from competitors by accentuating "clean living" and rules of moral conduct. Moncado earned a law degree and sought to portray the immigrant community as responsible and healthy in contrast to the then-prevalent depictions of uneducated gamblers. Much less publicly the FFA developed a set of religious teachings that held Moncado to be the reincarnation of Jesus Christ by way of José Rizal the Filipino patriot executed in the waning days of Spanish rule. Moncado's birthday was changed to make him appear to have been born after Rizal's death so that his identity as Rizal's reincarnation would be more plausible. After the achievement of Philippine independence and limitations on immigration the FFA turned almost entirely to spiritual rather than political objectives and even sent missionaries back to the Philippines where there is still an active sect venerating Moncado as a religious figure. This newsletter was issued after his death summarizing the tenets of his faith. Supreme Council of EFB Students unknown books
