The con In "consecration' means wholly
| When we consecrate ourselves 10 our
country we become wholly hers. our
bodies. minds and hearts. our time. money.
ambition, all at her service.
Does this conflict with the claims OF re-
| ligion? with christs requirement that we
serve the Lord with all our strength and
mind and heart? Not in the least. for
Gods children. In consecrat!ng ourselves
70 its service We are going far toward
obeying the second OF Christ's two iuclu-
sivc commandments, Thou shalt love thy
neighbOr as thyselt."
We shall ne-er reach the heart of true
patriotism until we cease to think Of our
country in personal terms. and begin TO
Identify ii with men and women. The
dear ones in your house. your neighhor
with 4 sick child, your grocer whose bill
you owe. yonder cabman out in the hot
sun. these are your country. The street
in front of your house, the choked-up
gutter yonder. the new town hall, these
also are your country. Garry the review
outward over as many leagues as your
country extends, but never forget that
your country begins at home.
Now, how can We consecrate ourselves
wholly devote ourselveS-to this living.

our?
First. our bodies. Every drunkard is a
traitor. playing false TO his country. de-
the labor and upbu!lding it has right 10
expect from him. And in lesser or greater
degree, every yone who weakens his body Is
injurinS his country. Firm muscles, steady
nerves, good sleep and digestion, long,
health-filled life, these are notable parts
of patriotism, as such citizens as Glad
stone of England and Roosevelt OF Amer
lea abundantly illustrate:
Second. our minds. There are many
things tho patriot should know: the his
tory OF his country. the character of Off
cials and candidates. the forms of govern
ment. the ways of parties, the laws. the
rights of citizens, relations to other lands.
Patriotism without knowledge is like
banner without staff, fiabby. fippant
thing, carried off on any wind that blows.
An ignorant man viii be firing at his own
capitol the shot he intends in its defense
Third, our conSciences. The con here
means with" knowledge is not enough:
science. the stronger your body and the
fuller your mind the worse for you and
your country. Conscience, when you
know a man is evil, will lead you to vote
against him, though he belong to your
own party. Conscience Will spur your
courage to protest against iniquity. Con-
science will lead you to stand alone, II
need be. on Gods side.
