 We can rightfully be grateful that it has fallen To happy lot to live in this most wonderful of all ages and to be citizens of this most derful of all the nations,

 Look upon your flag it streams it's bright folds wonder above your heads with proud and happy eyes. Remember how honorable is it's story, and forget not how many thousands of brave and good men died That if might wave yon- der the ensign If free people.
 Tell to your children the story of their fore bears. of those men and women who, amid the wilderness and forests that stood where stand mighty cities and stretch cultivated farms erected. with hanlships and endurance and most heroic faith and valor the noble edifce of our republican liberties.
 Speak to them of Bunker IItll and Valley Forge and Saratoga and Yorktown. and of the great DecIaraton-that most famous Charter of Hu- man Freedom
 Tell them to thank God for their fathers and mothers hardihood and courage, fer the wars they fought. for the victories they won.
 Tell them to salute their flag with high and proud hearts.
 Tell them to thank God this Thanksgiving day that they Americans
 And then do you Soberly gratefully. proudly thank God yourself that you are an American.

tnd so We firmly believe you do feel.
 We ail hear it repeated that patriotism k thing of the past;that people have become eommerealized; that the masses have no deep rooted loyalty to the country; that our rich men put dollars above the obligations of their citizen ship; that poor folk care little for the ideals of free government; that We Americans are de- eadent in the virtues and vaor which marked our fathers.
 That k not true
 If there be any power in the world which plots war against Us Americans and promises itself vic tory over uS on the assumption of cur deeadence in loyalty. that power will find how terrible was its mistake when eur country calls her sons to battle in her defense.
 We have, it fs true in our capacity as Il col- lective people. left Hndone things that should have been done and done things which should have been left andane: and there is more truth than there should be in much that K ieefingly said by those who hate us
 We acknowledge that much of our politics of fends common decency
 We see, here aud there, painful evidence of cor rnpten among lawmakers and even among the judges. who should know only justice and in- tegritH.
 We see rich men who de betray their country and foul their hands and soil their souls with most infamous dealings and most shameful profits
 We Americans who do put the dollar above every consideration of right and duty, above the claims of our common humanity.
 But while these things true. it is true also people take them as q nation are sound and sane and wholesome

Copenhagen, Feb. 26.-The Wilhelmshaven
Zeitung states that Emperor William arrived at
Wilhel1nshaven Wednesday morning and inspected
the warships there. He conferred with commanders
of the North fleet the Zeitung says and departed
the same evening.
There had been no previous intimation that the
emperor had departed from the Verdum sector to
Wilhelmshaven which is more than 200 miles distant.
There are many reports of unusual activity on the
