 After drawing the attention of his hear
 CTS to the circumstances in connection
 with the utterance of the words of the text, regarding the meaning of the feast of the passover, he said sThe applica- tion of the text to the present service IS to be found in the fact that we are stand- ipg at the end of the old and the begin- hing of the new republic. By this ser vice. we are reminded of the obligations which belong to citizenship in the new republic. The Connecticut National Guard has a work to perform, now in time of peace, as well as in time of war. In this republic there is always work for all. The civil war did not necessarily end the work of preserving the republic; there is still a special line of work for those who profess faithful citizenship This beautiful land of ours is now in greatest danger from two threats or per- ills First, the great menace to American life. liberty and thought through the non- assimilated mass of ignorant, unrestriet- ed foreign immigration the class which comes here because of restlessness or crime at home, the members of which do not and will not become natural ized American citizens and maintain and uphold the national life and constitution.

perhaps the more deplorable of the two. So many men sit at ease in their studies or their libraries and, because of slight
 extra effort required, do not go forth and
 cast their ballots boldly for those princi-
 pies which are for the support and main
 tenance of the healthful life of civil insti-
 tutions. The dangers from trucking
 politicians, petty schemers and those who
 seek office for spells alone are far too
 great to be lightly regarded, or set aside
 as unworthy serious consideration. They
 were no small menace and opened up
 another avenue along which the inf1u-
 ence of the national guard could and
 should be extended for the good of the
 entire community. The nature of the
 conflict the veterans had won would
 stand forever as a monument to them.
