Noble Aspirations.

II we accept Balzac's statement:
Nations, like men. owe all their
strength and vitality that Is in them
to noble thoughts and aspirations"
we shall find ourselves wondering how
we ought to compare the strength and
vitality OF England, Germany and
France. Each Of these empires is
great and strong, and each owes this
strength and vitality to the noble
thoughts and aspirations OF it's people.
How shall we appraise the noble
thoughts and aspirations of Germany,
OF England, of France! No mortal
scroll could mirror forth all of lofty
good that has resulted from the
thoughts and aspirations OF these peo-
pies, peoples who are now rayening
at each others threats, forgetting all
the splendor of their constructive
years in the madness OF tho destruc-
tive present
Strong these nations are-what shall
make them stronger? Still nobler
thoughts and aspirations. II may be
that out of this inoil OF blood and tears
each may rise to a new and higher
destiny, destiny OF peace and pros.
perity which shall include no thought
OF war. Let US hope that this may be
true OF their future.--Dayton Journal.
