eve are erecting here a new physical
ediiice. The physically unfit is and
ever has been a menace to the nation.
All praise to those institutions which
give to the sick chance to recover,
the unfit to become once more ct. But
still greater praise be to that institution
which aims to keep the clean man clean,
the At man ct. This is worldwide
mission, this is work that reaches into
every home, into every walk of life.
''To keep the bodies as we'll as the
minds of men pure, that is the burden
laid upon this structure, that Is a stress
under which whole nations have gone
to their ruin. May we be able here
TO create in man clean heart, clean
body, clean mind. SO shall our found
alton stand.
Faith OF Our Fathers.
"We are in these days erecting a
new edifice of religion. The faith Of
our fathers, the creeds they joined in,
the tenets they believed essential have
changed, are changing. Hold as we
may to the ancient doctrines Of the
founders of our Christian forms and
faith, they are slipping through our
fingers one by one. And as they fall,
new forms, new faiths, must take their
place. It is a time of peculiar peril in
the religious life OF the land. Is our
foundation secureR The Christian reli-
gion, my friends, has not changed, is
not changing, the life and the words
of the lowly Son Of God who trod the
dusty paths of Galilee still remain your
guide and mine, the commands thun-
dered from Sanai yet rule the world, the
still small voice even now speaks into
your heart and mine We follow in the
footsteps of our fathers if we meet our
problems of today in the same spirit
that they met theirs of yesterday.
"Creeds may come and 60 systems
of theology wax and wane, men rear
cathedrals to a God of hate and ven.
geanee only to find them used in the
worship of a God of love; but the life
of Christ remains, mightier today than
it was a century ago. May this our
foundation then rest on the simple love
the simple life, the simple works and
words of him who went about doing
good So shall our foundation stand. Z
