THE PLEA OF
THE FUTURE
By HENRY ARMITT BROWN

My countrymen, the moments are
quickly passing, and we stand like
some traveller upon lofty crag that
separates two boundless seas. "The
past said your great statesman, "is
secure" 1t is finished and beyond our
reach. The hand Of detraction cannot
dim its glories nor the tears of re-
pentance wipe away its stains. Its
good and evil, its joy and sorrow, It's
truth and falsehood, its honor and its
shame we cannot touch. Sigh for them,
blush for them, weep for them IL we
will; we cannot change them now.
The years that are before us are a
virgin page. We can inscribe them as
we will. The future Of our country
rests upon us. The happiness OF pos
terity depends upon us. The fate Of
humanity may be in our hands. That
pleading voice, choked with the sobs
Of ages, which has so often spoken to
deaf ears Is lifted up to us. 1t asks us
to be brave, benevolent, consistent,
true to the teachings of our history
proving divine descent by worth di-
vine" 1t asks us to be virtuous, build
ing public virtue upon private worth
seeking that righteousness that exalt'
eth nations. II asks us to be patriotic
loving our country before all Other
things, making her happiness our hap
piness, her honors ours, her fame oul
own. 1t asks US In the name of char
lty in the name of freedom, in th'
name Of God,
