that they should foresee. Modern life
Is both complex and intense, and the
tremendous changes wrought by the
extra ordinary Industrial Development
Of the last half centure are felt IN
every fibre of our social and political
being. Never before have men tried
so vast ard formidable an experiment
as that of administering the affairs OF
a continent under the forms OF
democratic republic. The conditions
which have told for our marvellous ma
terial wellbeing, which have developed
to very high degree our energy, self
reliance and individual initiative, have
also brought the care and anxiety In
separable from the accumulation OF
great wealth in industrial centers.
No Reason To Fear the Future.
upon the success of our experiment
much depends, not only as regards our
own welfare, but rs regards the well
fare of mankind. If we fail the cause
of free selfgovernment throughout the
world Will rock 10 its foundations, and
therefore our responsibility is heavy
10 ourselves, to the world as 1T is to-
day, and to the generations yet un-
born. There is mo good reason why
we should fear the future, but there is
every reason why we should face II
seriously. neither hiding from our
selves the gravity of the problems be-
fore us, nor fearing TO approach these
problems with the unbending, unfiinch-
ing purpose to solve them Alright.
'Yet. after all, though the problems
are new, though the tasks set before
us differ from the tasks set before
our fathers who founded and pre-
served this republic, the spirit in which
these tasks must be undertaken and
these problems faced, if cur duty is
to be well done, remains essentially
unchanged We know that self-gov-
eminent is difficult

eve know that no people needs
such high traits Of character as
that people which seeks to gov
ern its affairs Alright through the
freely EXPRESSED will of the free
men who compose it. But we have
faith that we shall not prove false to
the memories Of the men of the mighty
past. They did their work, they left
us the splendid heritage we now en-
joy We I'M our turn have an assured
confidence that we shall be able to
leave this heritage unwasted and en-
larged to orr children and our chill
dren's children.
ITO do SO we must show, not merely
in great crises, but in the everyday
affairs of life, the qualities Of prac-
teal intelligence, of coura &c, of hardi-
hood and endurance. and above all the
power Of devotion to n lofty ideal,
which made great the men who found
