1t is unnecessary to speak Of the
generally we'll known work that the
order of Knights of Pythias is doing
wherever the altar Of Friendship,
Charity and B~enevOlence has been ded-
icated. The care of the sick, aiding
the widow and orphan, relieving mis-
fortune sending sunshine into dark
ened homes and hearts-these are the
we'll known purposes of the order |
would call yOur attention to another
mission which, while not one of It's
cardinal principles. is wonderfully alive
progressive in the order to-day l
refer to the upbuilding and strength
ening of independent, patriotic char
acter in its members.
This order is strictly and solely AM
erican and has already followed the
flag into Alaska. Cuba and the Philip
pines. To maintain her proud position
as the foremost nation of the world,
our country needs above all else men
of clear and rugged character: men
who place conscience before eXpedien-
cy, who place principle o DOpu-
larity; men who scOrn a personal gain
that StabS the general welfare: men
who are guided in their conduct by a
solemn sense of duty rather than by
self interest. The general average of
the individual character of it's citizen
ship establishes the stability of a COM
mOnWealth. \ we'll equipped a V and
strong army We must have, but the flu
ture peace, dignity and welfare of the
nation rest upon the morals Of the
people. When morality weakeTs. pa
Jtional decay begins. This law, T u
of nations. is equally true of races
and individuals. History records the
meteoric career of ancient republics
and kingdoms blighted and destroyed
by moral rot. The power of gOil, the
skill of the arts and sciences were I'M
potent to save them when individual
character became weakened ~ de-
graded. The weakest nations OF this
present g are those of smallest
calibre.
Racial history has been along the
same lines. The American Indian.

has practically passed from the face
of the earth. Without doing injustice
to q race which 1 shall always be glad
to see prosper along the right lines,
it can be truly said that lack of char
acter more than all else has retarded
the advancement of the negro lnce his
exit from slavery. Since that time the
south OF its own generous volitiOn has
spent upon his education more than
S150lO00, 900. a generosity under such
circumstances that it has won the
applause of the world, and yet 10 a
great extent a kindly meant but mis-

directed and unappreciated benevo-
lence. The attempted mental super
structure has proven too Welghty for
the frail moral foundation. Racial adj
Vancement neceSSitateS the cultivation
of the heart rather than of the head.
Until the Golden Rule and the Ten
Commandments find deeper Judgement
in that untutored heart, until moral
obligation more strongly influences that
life. just SO long will the mania fo
elaborate mental training be produ'
tive OF ambitions utterly impossible Of
fulfllment. and of a discomfort NOR
dangerous than ignorance. Educatloi
alone is as powerless to produce man
