NoW tney are brought mo closer
contact; the relations which bind
them rogether make them nov
seem sisters of the same household.
We as Americans, love our sister
nations, but still the patriot ex-
claims, "My native land look with
fondest love upon thy pleasant
fields, thy lofty mountains, and thy
peaceful dales." /
As the beautiful sunshine causes
the snow capped mountain and as
it makes the winding streams to
sparkle rs they glide on their way
smiling upon the waving fields of
grain and ripening them for har
vest, so it causes every human soul
to exclaim with me in fervent joy,
"This is land of beauty and Of
freedom"
In all ages and amid all nations
the patriot love for ones country
has been the inspiring theme of
poets and orators, il has made the
animated marble speak and the
breathing canvas glow, it has be-
queathed to immortal memory
names that cannot die and deeds
that consecrated the spot here lie
the sacrifices of liberty. Why do
we have such patriotic love for his
our native land? The mighty sun
that wends its way through yonder
, heavens from horizon to horizon
loOfs not upon a country more
worthy of ones love and devotion
than America.
Great is the progress Of our age
and the glory of our nation. Let us
look cut over this magnificent land
of ours so beautifully adorned by
7 the hand of art, where once all was
S rough and rugged. The splendid
y buildings and beautiful palaces
sparkling in the sunlight of to-day
have taken the place of the rudely
constructed log cabin where the
, fathers of our country dwelt.
We rejoice in this upward prog
