THE architect who plans a great cathe-
dral sees with the eye of Imagination the
majestic structure in the full grandeur of
its imposing proportions, and unless he
could thus prefigure its finished beauty he
would be unfit to lay it's foundations. The
builders of empire also see with the eye Of
imagination. 1t is the function of creative
craftsmanship TO penetrate the future and
discern its course and its needs. Our
fathers laid the foundations on which the
splendid superstructure OF the Republic has
been erected, and it is for their successors
to carry forward this work in the same
broad, president, true American spirit. This
Republic has a mission among the nations
of the earth, and pre-eminently among the
nations and peoples of the American con-
tnent. 1T should be the highest exemplar
of peace liberty humanity and civilization
It's benefcent influence should be more and
