world, and this greaf country difiC'" into hostile camps, fighting eacn other for brief personal gaing
 It would be blasphemy to assent to such a view lt would be the most wanion and trihine idea Of the purpose of mans crcation. and | there exist human traits which ap- pear to combat the true conception of life. it is our ever present duty as citizens to join in overcoming the obstacle, and this duty rests upon rich and poor alike. The single trait of selfishness causes more woe. more hostility between men and interests more scheming and striving for ad- vantage at the expense of others. than any failing which mortals nurse to their bosoms.
 Gift Of Our Fcrefathers
 And 1t is so useless in the end, as we face the last hour and disap- pear in the great sea of the here af- ter. which engulfs us all, without re- spect for wealth or poverty.
 ''Thither the mighty torrents stray,
 Thither the brook pusues it's way.
 And tinkling Till
 There ali are equal: side by side
 The poor man and the son of pride
 Lie calm and still."
 But why walt for that sort Of equality the dead. worm-eaten equality of the grave? IL gives sat isfaction neither to the millionaire nor the pauDer But what q world of satisfaction and happiness both could have in life. which is now lack ing. if we accord more reverence to the purpose of Providence The pur- pose ought to show itself not only in the common walks Of life. but in our states and national government To-day, on the anniversary of the nations birth, We are to remember that not only has the means been placed in our hands to bring about nobler ideals and broad justice, but that true progress can tolerate noth- ing else in our government, and it is so easy of accomplishment. if we but take the right view and are hum ble in the face of our common fail. ings.
 Duty Of Americans
 Our citizenship will be glorified and our country made greater through peaceful changes that result rom an aroused sense of personal responsibility. which shall appeal to the citizen of wealth as it does 10 the man who depends upon him for his daily wage. We must come to- gether on the basis of progress toward better things. and this agree. ment 10 be lasting, must have as it's its foundation peace. good will and mutual respect
 Violence in either speech or action never gained anything worth while and nothing is so vain as hostility between men in working cut the problems connectsd with the princi. ples upon which our government is founded.
 The fathers of the republic long since performed the greaies work ever conceived in the direction of giving man the power to define the true purpose of selfgovernnient, and it is for those who are living today to cease strife over little things, tenn. prorary things tTif1es that crumble as the grave yawns, and give a great CT degree of thought to justice and equality, Nothing else will endure. nothing else will ever bring happk ness or q clear conscience to the present generation. It is emphati. cally an American duty. impressed upon us once more today, to see that We have popular government in inc best meaning of the term--govarD. ment in which all shall have q voice and that voice to express the squara deal for the powerful aud the weak alike.
 Appeal of Pasriotism
 Patriotism could ask nothing greater. and it certainly shoalj ask nothing less. The appeal Of patriot ism goes straight home today to the cottage and the corporation office. It IS an appeal from commercialism drunk to commereIalism sober. IL is an appeal to men in all walks of life who are hurling themselves head flcng. care burdened, disturbed of mind and ambition for nothjneness 10 awaken to the real meaning of citizenship. and to realization of how much our government could as. sist In making life easier. The an- peal of patriotism on this birthday Of the nation is also an appesl against the narrowness Of partisan ship.
 Parties are made for men. not men Tor parties, and should be the means of expressing the will of the masori. ". To the independent citizen nothing but the underlying principle Is sacred. Doctrines should have no eh@ins to stop progress toward popn- lar rule
 Coming of Character
 independence Day gives birth not only to an independent nation. but guaranteed independence 10 all citi-. zens. It is theirs to use as their Judgment dictates. If they dictate line of action which promotes the brotherhood Of man and tends to equality before the law. they win best serve the purpose of the little band that made Valley Forge. Mon. mouth and Yorktown immortal in history. Today We give them rev.
