According to our best authority
patriotism is the love which one
has for his country; the passion
which aims to serve ones county
either in defending it from inva-
sion or protecting its rights and
maintaining its laws in vigor and
purity.
Patriotism may in many respects
be likened unto christianity in that
it covers SO much ground and that
there are so few who may really be
called patriotic from all stand
points. A word of cheer and a
pleasant smile here, little deeds Of
kindness there. and a willingness
at all times to make great sacrifices
for mankind and the kingdom are
truly characteristic of the Chris
tian life whereas the patriotic citi-
zen is characterized by his motives
and his efforts to make good citi-
zens out of the bad, by training
the youth along right lines and by
being ever ready to answer his
country's call whether this call be
to arms at the sacrifice of home and
family and possibly life or whether
it bea call in some civil pursuit
with sacrifice of large income.
1t is the object of the Christian to
bring about the melinium, it is the
object of the patriot to bring to re-
ality the Utopia
There are two principal ways in
which one may show his patriot
ism. The first is by defending it
against invasion and putting down
rebellion When foreign coun-
try insults the American flag, con-
gress if not in session hastily as
sembles at the call of the president
and demands through an ultima
tum a retraction of the insult and
if this ultimatum is not complied
with, war is declared and the news
is flashed over the country like
lightning and million men
, spring up as one man and offer
their services to save their coun-
try's honor. They march to the
battlefield and freely give their
blood and life. Greater patriotism
hath no man than this that he lay
down his life for his country may
we'll be said of those who sacrifice
their lives for the flag, but that is
not all of patriotism for equally as
patriotic is the man who shows his
patriotism in the second principal
way by maintaining the constitution
and assisting in enforcing the law.
There is no country on the face
of the earth with as good and great
a constitution or with better laws
than the United States of America
and there is no country on the face
Of the earth whose constitution

For the first time in the history of

the colored nurses, Governor
Hodges gives the following words
of praise: They have made good,
the superintendent is highly pleas
ed with their services. and / feel
proud to have been able TO aid a
struggling people. The colored
people are citizens and contribute
to the tax fund and | believe that
they should be given equal oppor-

and laws are violated like they are
in America. The great trouble
with American patriotism is that
it is so one-sided that the enemy
who insults the flag is shot down
while the laws are allowed to slump
and be trampled upon without the
least emotion. If the majesty of
the is once instilled in the great
American mind, the people will
then rise enmasse to defend the
law as they do the flag and such
things as corporations rule the
lynching bee and the stake will be
things of the past.
The most striking example of
patriotism we have is the life of
Booker L. Washington who never
served his country in the capacity
of a soldier but by turning the
light of intelligence upon the ig-
norance and superstition of his be.
lated brethren he has done more
Of patriotic service than did
most of our great warriors.
The thing that should inspire
patriotism is the justice of coun.
try's laws and its fair dealing with
its common citizenship. The pc
culiar thing about America is that
the element of its citizenship, the
exact name of which has never
been determined but possibly you
will know who we mean when we
say, it is the element to whom the
flag gives the least protection but
which sings "My Country 'tis of
Thee" the most and the loudest in
its churches and convention halls
and always manage to get into the
thickest of the fight in war time
and fight the most furious.
When the squalid conditions are
viewed and the associated press
depicts in big red headlines the
heinous crimes committed by some
burly member of this element the
question is sometimes asked if the
boys of '63 who wore the blue did
not die in vain. When we look at
the onward march of prejudice,
the unfair play at the supposed
bar of justice. When we look at
the nations naval academy where
no black face can enter, and at the
military academy where few of our
people have entered and still fewer
are likely to enter, we feel like
asking if most of our blood sacri
feed ON the alter of liberty has
not been in vain.
We have built up great repu-
tation as lighting people and the
result has been far short of what
it should be. Now, don't you
think it time for us to build up
our reputation as law abiding citi-
zens and see if the result wont be
different.
