Nation dispersed, disbanded, gone to
their homes forgetful of the common
cause? Are our forces disorganized
without constituted leaders and the
might of men consciously united be-
cause we contend, not with armies, but
with princlpalities and powers and
wickedness in high places. Are we
content to lie still? Does our union
mean sympathy, our peace content
ment, our yigor right action, our ma
turity selfcomprehension and clear
confidence in choosing what we shall
do? War fitted US for action, and &C
ton never ceases.
Our Laws the Orders Of the Day.
/ have been chosen the leader Of
the Nation. cannot Justify the choice
by any qualities of my own, but 30 it
has come about, and here | stand.
Whom do commando The ghostly
hosts who fought upon these battle
fields long ago and are gone? These
gallant gentlemen stricken In years
whose fighting days are over, their
glory won? What are the orders for
them, who rallies them? have in my
mind another host, whom these set
free Of civil strife in order that they
might work out in days of peace and
settled order the life Of great ma
ton. That host is the people them
selves, the great and the small, with
out class or difference of kind or
race or origin; and undivided In inter
est, II we have but the vision to guide
and direct them and order their lives
Alright In what we do. Our constitu-
lions are their articles of enlistment
The orders Of the day are the laws
upon our statute books. What we
strive for is their freedom, their right
to lift themselves from day to day and
behold the things they have hoped
for, and 80 make way for still better
days for those whom they love who
are to come after them. The recruits
are the little children crowding in.
The quartermaster's stores are in the
mines and forests and fields, in the
shops and factories. Every day some
thing must be done to push the cam
paign forward; and it must be done
by plan and with an eye to some great
destiny.
How shall we hold such thoughts N
our hearts and not be moved? !
would not have you live even today
wholly in the past, but would wish to
stand with you in the light that
streams upon us now out of that
great day gone by. Here is the ma
ton God has builded by our hands
What shall we do with it? Who stands
ready to act again and always in the
spirit of this day of reunion and hope
and patriotic fervor? The dav of our
country's life has but broadened into
morning. Do not put uniforms by
Put the harness of the present on
Lift your eyes to the great tracts OF
life yet to be conquered in the inter
est Of righteous peace, Of that pros
perity which lies In peoples hearts
and outlasts all wars and errors of
men. Come, let us be comrades and
soldiers yet to serve our fellow men
in quiet counsel, where the blare of
trumpets is neither heard nor needed
and where the things are done which
make blessed the nations of the world
in peace and righteousness and love.

Advice tc the Innocent.

We have letter from a young wom-
an who asks:
Can / succeed as a chorus girl and
remain innocent? My friends tell me
that l am very beautiful"
We are unable to give expert advice
concerning the possibility of succeed

nocent, but we feel safe in saying that
If the young lady is provided with a
suitable supply of innocence in her
present environment 1t would be pity
not to keep it right there.-Chicago
