where and how has this generation
proved its vaior? 1t comes with very
bad grace from any old veteran to pre-
vent his son from showing that he in

Does any one still bear a grudge
against the North for what happened
in the civil war? Why Lord help us
if the Yankees had had the negroes
and the farms and the hot sun and we
had had the whites and the factories
and the cold climate, they would have
! seeded and we would have whipped
them back into the Union a sight
quicker than they did us.
How many civil wars did Rome
have, and what old Roman ever bore
an eternal grudge against some section
of his country? How many civil wars
did Palestine have? There was very
little love ,lost between the people Of
Galilee and the people Of Jerusalem,
and yet we find Jesus, the Galilean,
uttered this burst Of patriotism: 30

in the furnace of Cuba) and Welding
