It was Robert Louis Stevenson

from the hollow of His hand.
AS we stand in the bright fresh
air listening for the voices of this
great city, we feel that the beauty
of the body demands a beautiful
voice; we feel therefore that the
songs and music that arise, are, or
should be true fitting interpreta-
ton of the city by the sea. Opt
mism that is the key note of the
song; belief in self and in the ulti-

Only few short years ago / stood
looking down on San Francisco, as
it lay smoke enshrouded ruin at my
feet. To the visitor nothing could
have appeared more disheartening.
The city a mass of ruins, no certainty
when another earthquake might ap-
pear, yet then. as perhaps never be-
fore, l hearkened to the city's voice,
arising with not uncertain sound;
voice full of confidence in the flu
ture; voice full Of confidence even
in the present; voice unanimous
no dlscordant notes; every note car
ried clear the message that San Fran
cisco would be b u 1t, and that
promptly, and would go forward to
an even greater measure of prosper
ity. And as we walk down Market
or Kearney Streets at the present
time and see the new great city that
has arisen, we know that the notes
that we heard at. that time, we read
correctly, and may feel assured that
we are therefore able to read the
song that is waited to us today. It
is a fuller voice, more cords are
brought into play. more notes struck.
There is an underlying harmony Of
discords; there is yet a note of pain
from the civic and political struggles
through which she has recently pass
ed. There is the artificial merri-
ment that arises from that plague
spot-the Barbary Coast. And yet
another sound, the deep gruff note
of labor TT gu bles yet unsettled
But above all and over all, in notes
not to be mistaken, is the song, tune
or thought--describe it as you will
that is the clarion CALL Tomorrow.
Yes, as we stand here we feel that
we are on the battle ground of the
future. San Francisco represents
today all that is in the seething pop
ulation. but it seems to me that the
voice and the music take us further.
We see a new civilization timldly-
rearing it's head on the We stern
Ocean, we see it thriving in the rich
soil and under The warm California;
sun. 1t will not be long before, in
the flooded valleys of this west
ern state, wonderful flower will
bloom, flower of a more. perfect
civilization, of higher ideals, of more
universal service; a civilization like
unto the Ancient Greeks, but yet
even higher, in so much as it will be
based upon a more perfect Denoc-
racy.
The song rings brave and true,
and as we turn away to some other
city in some other land we can still
hear her proud refrain: The Land
of Tomorrow"

It is now five hundred long years
since the Turks, at the battle of
Kossovo, gave what was thought to
be the final defeat to the Slav people.
But at last the tide has turned and
a few short weeks ago we saw the
little nation. (not containing over
$50, 900 people), throw down the
gague to the mighty Turkish Empire.
And in this, which we trust will be
the final struggle, these Serbs, who
have retained their childlike faith in
the teeth of the bitterest persecution,
were the first to lift the Cross against
the Crescent.
1t is now many long year since I
have seen this country, but l carry a
very vivid recollection of its people
and its ways. A people of mag
nifcent physique; with few excep-
tons they stand over 81 x feet tall
and are built in proportion. They
have the easy grace and poise of the
mountaineer, because Montenegro is
nothing but collection of mount
aims. 1t has well been described as
the Rough rock throne of freedom. "
Living in these mountains for the
last five centuries they have wrung
ascanty living from the rocky soil
and have defended themselves from
the raids of both the Turks and the
Albanians, who. driven on by their
Turkish masters, have been a con-
slant menace to them.
Every Montenegran that you meet
you will notice is armed. A trusty
rifle in his hand and in the broad
scarf that circles his waist you will
notice a large and serviceable pistol
or revolver. These weapons are not
for ornament, they are needed, not
occasionally but continually to de-
fend their goods, their lives aud even
more important, the honor of heir
women folk.
