vadlng effects will be felt merely by
those engaged in the struggle. The
results must be potent, even to the
remotest part Of the earth and give
direction to the activities and
thoughts of all peoples which will
profoundly affect the worlds future
for better or for worse. II is a time
TO pause and turn aside from the many
bulletins of war-like operations, from
the horrors of combat and OF slaugh-
ter and consider soberly and patrioti-
cally the effect upon our country and
upon the whole human race. We had
hoped for an early termination OF the
struggle. but peace seems far away.
Indeed we have come to believe that
questions of supreme Importance must
be decisively settled in this war, or
else the years to come will be shroud-
ed In dark clouds Of bitterness and
hatred; great problems which require
solution will be still undetermined and
furnish sure provocation for future
wars, may be on a more colossal scale
than the present.
There is no denying that conflict
ing interests and deeply seated an
tagonisms which were slumbering for
a time have been aroused by this
struggle. The political map of Europe
has not corresponded with the ethical
map. Although splendid progress
seemed to have been made for a SOL
idarity of commercial interests and
for closer social association. there
were long existing grounds for repul-
sion which would allow no peace.
Differences of race and religion, rival
ries in trade, and the conflicting
claims Of many nations relating to ter
ritory and spheres of influence, have
furnished the basis for war in which
multitude Of pent-up animosities
have been let loose. There are many
indications that this combat must end
in a draw, and II SO, 1t means an era
OF armed preparedness which win
give bent to the worlds civilization

to prevail before the fatsfal days OF

unfinished year by year with startling
rapidly; like the leaves of the forest
in autumn, they are rapidly falling;
few remain who have not reached the
allotted period of three-score and ten,
and all are coming nearer and nearer
to the twilight hour. 1t is fitting that
we should recall their splendid deeds
and place myriads Of flowers upon the
graves of the dead and look also with
admiration and honor upon those Of
the living. When Napoleon was lead
ing his armies in the north OF Italy,
he inspired them to combat by saying
that in their later years the young and
strong would point to them and say,
there goes one who served in the
army Of Italy, but with how much
more Of appropriateness and with how
much more OF enthusiasm may the
youth and beauty Of today point to
these surviving veterans and say,
there goes one who served in the
army Of the union
Time, the great Judge of the ac-
tion of mortals, which smooths away
asperities and burles animosities in
the grave, has caused us to look with
respect and tolerance and now with

admiration even upon those who
served on the other side. We recog-
nize that those who wore the gray
were fighting for cause which in
spired their efforts and that their en-
orgies were supremely enlisted for
that which they thought to be right.
There has been no more encouraging
sight than the commingling of the sur
vlvors Of the two armies in these later
years with kindred spirit OF patriot
ism and common confidence in the
assured future of our country. 1t is
their universal desire to pass down to
posterity living fire of patriotism
and remembrance of deeds of hero
ism which will furnish a needed inspi-
ration for all the generations which
are to come after. The years are
swiftly gliding by; the time will be not
far distant when the last veteran who
listened TO the bugle-call will have
passed into the great beyond. When
the countless multitude shall all have
been laid away, some unmarked
graves upon the battlefelds, some in
the peaceful cemeteries where the sur
Vtvors have dwelt, will this celebra-
ton Of Decoration day continue? /
verify believe that 1t will. However
much we are occupied with the whirl
of the present and with looking for
ward to the future, that people which
fails to retain an abiding sense of
gratitude for those who persisted on
the field Of battle, and for those who
barred the breasts to the foe, will have
failed in patriotic ideals and manifest
ed the decoy OF a fitting national
spirit. Thus, we may believe that in
the years to come, all over this broad
land on this national holiday, ceme-
teries where soldiers are buried will
be made beautiful with the flowers of
spring. and the deeds of those who
fought for their country will be held
in everlasting remembrance.
