Dr. Gardiner, after giving sketch
of the life of Columbus and OF his
great work. spoke on the real glory
of America. What is the glory or
the real greatness of America 2'' the
speaker inquired. 1T is not 10 be
found, let me say. in the vast extent
of our country Sometimes we boast
that our country extends from the
Atlantic 90 the Pacific-from Canada
ON the north 90 Mexico on the south.
But this is not our glory.
Nor is our glory to be found in the
fact that we have a population of
over 100000, O00. Is it then TO Ice
found I'm the fact that we are the
richest country i'm the world No.
IL is true we are rich in gold, in cop
per and in coal and in other ma
tcrial resources. but the greatness OF
any country is not in her material
things.
What then is our glory? I answer
il is 10 be found in the fact that ever
since our existence as "a nation we
have had a love for liberty From
1875 until the present hour our
watchWord has been freedom. We
count Lincoln great because ne be-
ueved and taught that in all the
realm of thought there was no grand
er cause. no loftier theme than that
of liberty
THE glory OF this nation lies too
in our growing love -or justice. We
are demanding that every cnild and
every man have a fair chance. We
build our schools for the blind and
for the deaf because we believe that
justice demands that children blind
and deaf should receive an educa-
ton. We pass our laws regulatins
capital and labor because we be-
heve that justice should be melted
out 90 both. I'm so far as we love
Justice we may glory.
"But our chief glory is in the type
OF our manhood and womanhCod
Let me say that the measure OF In,
greatness OF this or any nation is e

"The destruction Of the service IS universal have

SPIRIT OF THE
DELMARVIA PRESS
OUR GUESTS.


From The Newark Post
With the opening of the Summer
School, the State asks much of the
hospitality of Newark. With all these
teachers in our midst, we are again
placed on our best behavior. These
young women and young men are
with us for six weeks Our attitude
toward them will have much to do
with their impressions OF the spirit
of a college town. They will carry
their impressions back to their re-
spective communities. Our welcome
with the little courtesies easily in our
mower. will do much toward the
pleasure and success OF their stay
with us.
Nor think they alone are the bene-
fciaries. We can, by the cultivation
of their acquaintance. learn much
from them. Their attitude and point
of view, representative Of other sec
tions. will add to our knowledge OF
the trend OF education and life in the
State. BY this association and inter-
change OF ideas, we shall the better
understand and serve.
II is hoped our homes and churches
will give them more than passing
welcome. Upon these teachers here
rest largely of tomorrow's home and
club life of Delaware.

colonists revolted. and which today

These truths are obvious TO any
one who considers the geographical
position OF Ireland. They are obvious
to many professed patriots, who, how
ever are afraid or unwilling TO let
their followers know what they know.
The insincerity and untrustworthiness
OF those so-called leaders appear
everywhere in their public utterances,
so carefully measured and adapted to
the expectations and demands OF their
several audiences, whether in ireland.
in England, in the colonies or in this
country. The sober demands for self
government which appeal to the
democracies OF England and the col
onies would be too modest here,
where clowns who care nothing about
Ireland, but are willing enough to let
Irishmen suffer. are the accepted
leaders Of Irish opinion. And so in
this country they adapt their speeches
to the taste of the Devoys, the
Vierecks and the Victor Herberts. So.
too, their demands and promises are
Inconsistent contradictory and reek-
ing of hypocrisy.
Ireland's hope lies in the discovery
Of a strong and honest leader, not
afraid to tell his own people the
truth or TO warn them against the
fanatics and the prostitute mounte-
banks who have betrayed them.

MEN ON PENSION roll

companies OF the Pennsylvania Rail
road system retired 1926 employees

includes Sc men and women whose re-
tirement, dating from June 1st, has
just received the final approval of the
directors. OF the entire number of
employees placed on the Roll of
Honor" in the last six months, 33,
or more than 10 per cent, worked
for the railroad so years or more,
while 149. or nearly half, we're in the
active service more than 40 years
each.
The Pennsylvania Railroad system
expended in pensions during the first
half of 1916, in round figures, $750000.
Pensions are being paid at the pres
ent time at the rate of more than
$4,000 per day. Since the pension
system was established on January
1st, 1900, the total expenditure has
been almost $13.0O0,OO0. A total OF
9,464 employees have been retired

keIand's Hope
(From the New York Tribune)

One Of Sir Roger Easements ac-
quaintances. lately returned from
Berlin. reports his last conversation
with him in The New York American.
where il is made abundantly clear
that that fantastic patriot entered
upon the Irish adventure with little
or no hope of success. "The situa-
tion that existed in Napoleon's time is
unchanged today" said Sir Roger.
without Ireland England can no
longer dominate the seas. and II is the
same Irish spirit that invited Napo-
leon TO Ireland as now seeks in Ger
many a British foe capable of coming
10 Ireland's aid" But while he rea-
soned thus. he apparently suffered
under no delusion about actual con-
ditions. do not misunderstood me"
he said. Il do not believe this war
will bring the opportunity for Ireland
to win her freedom"
What does this signify but that Sir
Roger Easement is the very type Of
common Irish leader, the well-wisher
who has brought untold suffering to
his credulous countrymen by a per-
sistent refusal to face facts or to al
low his followers to see them as they
really are? None of the instigators
of the late-rebellion imagined that the
independence of Ireland could be
achieved at such a moment; none Of
the more intelligent among them
dreamed of it as a possibility as long
as the British Empire existed. For
this is a matter that concerns not
only England but all of the colonies.
AS the late Admiral Mahan put II
years ago: "The legislative suprem-
acy Of the British Parliament. against

try who have the vital interest in the
question OF war or peace. II is not
the politicians or orators, the organi-
cations of public preparationists or
public pacifists that have the most at
stake. II is the average citizen-the
citizen who earns his bread by the
sweat of his brow, the citizen who
loves his family and wants to con-
tinue giving that family his support
and protection who has the most at
stake.
Those orators who cry out for a
given course OF action in the name of
the national honor without having be-
for them all the facts that affect the
demonstrate their lack of responsible
ity and their callous selfishness.
Il speaks well for the widom of the
American people that they have never
elected a President who has been
stampeded into war by false advisers
or critics.
Great as has been the horror of the
European war. strong as is the de-
sire to preserve the strength of the
United States for the more civilized
purposes of humanity. the American
people as unit will be ready TO fight
and to die II 1t should be necessary
TO preserve the national honor.
On the one side, in the nation to-
day as in all crises Of the past. there
are those who. without knowing all
the facts on which the great deci-
sion must be made, argue for imme-
diate action against Mexico, regard
less OF the consequences. On the
other side are those who are pray
ing that peaceful means Of protecting
the nations honor shall be completely
exhausted before there is recourse TO
arms and to the sacrifice OF the blood
of American soldiers.
President Wilson. with all the facts
before him, was able to win a diplo-
matte victory in the submarine con-
troversy. satisfying this nations honor
without the frightful toll of war
The President Of the United States
alone knows the facts in the Mexican
situation. He alone can make the de-
cision that will conserve the ma
tional interests. While orators are
making their arguments in public
places, the people. by wire and letter,
are telling the President that they,
who must make the sacrifices and
who will not ask that some other
mothers son make It for them, want
peace so long as It is compatible with
the nations honor.

n the honor OF the United States can
be maintained by peaceful methods,
WHO shall say that the nation snould
go to war?
Those who want war must be will
ing themselves to sacrifice their lives
upon the altar of national devotion.
None but a poltroon and coward
would fail to make the sacrifice If the
honor of the country were at stake,
but only those who are in full possess
sion of all the facts in the Mexican
situation can decide what the national
interest demands.
What man in public life, what Off
cial or orator in the market places,
can say that he is more jealous of the
national honor than are the people
themselves? The honor OF the ma
tion is safe in the hands of the Amer
incan people.
And what are the people saying?
What are they thinking as they walk
through the streets? What are they
saying about their own supper table
after they have returned from their
daily work? In one of his speeches
President Wilson said.
I would a great deal rather
know what the men on the trains

shops and on the farms are
