hot cauldron OF war the relation OF the
African to the Caucasian race was
settled here, so in Europe Will the
many social problems be settled, and
the survivors viii be summoned to
large citizenship, better humanity
and new spirit.
The people engaged in this war are
white and patriotic. They Will re-

the South did theirs.
When our great President, as he
will, gets the full recognition OF our
right to the seas, then will come an
era of trade and an expansion OF com
merce for this country the like OF
which we have never dreamed.
1t is with nations as with indlVld-
uals. They must be perfect through
sorrow and suffering if perfect at all.
Success inervates, disaster streng-
thens. Joy is evinescent as a dream.
Sorrow is abiding as a fate. The or
ange wreath of the bridal may fade II
a day; the cypress wreath OF the
death couch endures through a LIE
time. The laugh is lost on the wave
of the air; the tear is preserved amid
the Jewels of the sky. The careless
ness of mirth rings the JOY bells OF
an hour; the prayer Of sorrow rings
the bell of the eternal heaven.
Get in love with your government
and let us make Arkansas the equal
of the best in this blessed Union.
