Action OF Others When Possible to

Action OF Others When Possible to
Do SC and Not to Harbor Hatred.
Salt Lake City. Utah, Sept 27-In
the pulpit of the famous Mormon
tabernacle in this city, where four
years ago Theodore Roosevelt, then
president, preached a long sermon on
right living and the duties of good citi,
zenship President Taft faced an au-
dience which he said inspired him to
try to follow in the footprints of his
predecessor and deliver a preachment.
Mr. Taft did preach a sermon, text
and all. The immense audience in the
fag-draped edifice, the splendid musi-
cal program of operate and patriotic
selections, the enthusiastic cheering
as President Taft appeared and the
quick response of the audience to the
points which he endeaVOred to i'm
press upon his hearers, inspired him.
the president declared. with higher
thoughts of country and patriotism.
The presidents sermon was an ap-
peal for amity between the people for
attributing the best rather than the
worst motives to the action of others
when possible to do so and not to har-
Dor hatred or animCsty.
"A soft answer turneth away wrath,
but grieyOus words stir up anger" was
the text Mr.. Taft selected from the
Book of Proverbs. The sermon was a
homely utterance. largely made up of
a relation of stories to give emphasis
to the points.
Reviewed 10000 School Children.
From the tabernacle the president
was driven to review about 10000
school children At one point along the
line a thousand or more children had
eeen arranged in a living flag, red
white and blue caps serving to outline
the national emblem.
Thence the president proceeded tC
the Young Mems Christian Associa
ton. where he made a brief address
to men. Lastly the president attended
services especially arranged for hin
at the Unitarian church. After this
unusually busy Sunday morning he lef
Salt Lake for Ogden, where he en-
joyed an eighteen-mile ride through
Ogden Canon and made his third ad
dress Of the day at Lester park
When Senator SmoOt introduced tht
president to the audience in the Sal
Lake tabernacle the cheering was 81
great that Mr.. Taft could not begil
his address for several minutes
