The relative Importance of great
events, and of the institutions found
ed thereon, may be determined by
the progressive results and the re-
mote consequences which flow there
from. Brilliant conceptions In the
abstract thought, flexibilitiy in ex-
preston of emotions common to all
men. which inspire lofty sentiments,
and exalted enthusiasm. are to be
studied and admired: but the heroic
work of actual achievement whereby
the great affairs of the world are
regulated and adjusted to the ne
cessities. the aspirations and the hap
piness of humanity. are entitled to
the gratitude of mankind.
Viewed In this light. measured by
this standard. the Grand Army of
the Republic. through its living mem
bership. must be accepted as the
most profound exemplifcation Of ger
minal sentiment the world has yet
seen. The garter" and golden
fleece" have appealed through the
imagination to many generations Of
men. but II these. and all other OF
the magnificent order OF chivalry had
never existed the interests OF man
kind would not thereby have been
materially affected.

Everything In our national life
