DUTY Of INDIVIDUAL
DEFINED BY VARDAMAN
Senator Delivers Advance Memorial
Day Address at Govern
ment Printery.

In an address of mingled humor and
seriousness Senator James K. vardaman
OF Mississippi speaking at the Decora-
ton day exercises held in the govern
ment printing office at noon, made a plea
1or individual responsibility in life and
government.
The greatest thing beneath the stars
is human being declared Senator
Vardaman, ''and this is the greatest gov
ernment the world has ever known. You
are living in a grand and an awful time.
1t was Walt Whitman, the greatest
Of American philosophers, who once said
that the whole theory of government
should go back to one single individual
namely, you.
Responsibility of the People.
Are these United States what they
ought to be? Does the government give
an equal chance to all? Coming nearer
home to you, is the atmosphere of the
churches what it ought to be? If they
are not, it Is because you are not what
you ought to be. This flag is only what
you are. The government has only that
which you impart to 1t. The govern
ment itself is pauper-it has nothing
but what you give 1t.
Speaking of Decoration day, Senator
Vardaman said that no people who fail
to recognize the achievements of their
ancestors will ever have posterity who
will remember them
You do not add anything to the dead.
You benefit Yourself. You build a monu-
ment that will last as long as love of
home and country animates this land
