We are constantly speaking of the great war of which we think to say as a war which saved the Union, and it did indeed save the Union. but it did great deal more than that. It ere ated in this country what had never existed before, a. national conscious ness. It was not the salvation of the Union; it was the rebirth of the Union. It was the time when America for the first time realized it's unity and saw the vision of it's united des- tiny.
 The solemn lesson of these me mories for us is not that we must be ready to save the union again, for there are none among us who threaten it's life. but that we must see to it that the unity then realized, the vision then seen, to be eXemplified in us. and things that we do. Because there is no stimulation in any lesson unless it be stimulation to duty
