PRESIDENT WILSON ON DEFENSE

The following are sharp sentences
OF President Wilson's address in New
York on national preparedness:
Il would not feel that I was dis
charging the solemn obligation I owe
the country were I not to speak in
terms of the deepest solemnity of the
urgency and necessity of preparing
ourselves to guard and protect the
rights and privileges of our people,
our sacred heritage of the fathers
who struggled to make us an indie
pendent nation.
Here is the nation God has build
ed by our hands. What shall we do
with it? Who is there who does not
stand ready to act in her behalf?
1--WE shall work for only an army
adequate to the constant and legiti-
mate uses of times of international
peace.
Voices have been raised in Amer
lea which came from men who loved
other countries better than they
loved America and had forgotten
that their only allegiance was to- the
government under which they lived.
1.-THE mission of America in the
world is essentially a mission of
peace and good will among men.
within her borders, men should raise
the cry of church against church. -
The following sentences are from
Mr.. Bryan's statement, criticizing
President Wilson's defense program
Speak softly, but carry big stick
is delusive maxim. If a man with
soft voice is persuaded to carry a
club, his voice changes so soon as ne
begins to rely on the club.
''The spirit that makes the indi-
vidual carry a revolver leads him tc
use it on slight provocation.
1.-THE plan is not only a departure
from our traditions, but also re-
versal Of our national policy.
.,''It is not only menace to ou1
peace and safety, but also a challenge
to the spirit of Christianity.
Preparation for defense is the
ground on which all preparation fol-
war; is made.
1.-THE nation has won it's position
in the world without resorting to the
habit of toting pistol.
-. MAY we not expect all Latin-Am.
erica to be stimulated to preparation
if we enter on such an era?"

months in devising ways and means
of making next summer the most
prosperous ones in the agricultural
history of this community. There
are many ways in which we may in
crease the output to the acre
age with but little added
expense, but we will have to get to-
igether and compare notes in order to
accomplish it. Who is for expansion
and greater prosperity?
