did herself proud, and has
for tho time being dissipated the charge
that Denver is cald. It. was an ovation
which expressed the appreciation Of loyal
people for the men who upheld the
States honor on the battlehelds Of a
foreign foe. 1t was a new event to this
generation. When the Spanish Ameri-
can war came upon the country after
thirtydve years Of profound peace we
knew little Of the sensation Of seeing our
loved ones march away to foreign land,
OF scanning the reports for names OF
those We feared to fnd, and then to
crown tho boys with laurel leaves and
spread their pathway with roses. But
we have learned great deal and taught
the world more. We have again taught
Europe that the American volunteer is a
model soldier and invincibls force, We
welcome the boys home and ut is our
hope each may score success in pursuits
OF psacs - brilliant as those which made
them fspoas in war.
