Men Of all parties and creeds, repre-
senting the commerce, the education,
the morals, the family life. the art and
the religion of community. should
together form a plan of what the COM
munity- shall eventually be and work
toward that plan themselves and teach
1t to the. young and enlist them in the
campaign. The citizens should know
what the city is receiving from its pub
lie franchises, whether the schools are
teaching the patriotism of democracy.
and whether the proper moral ideas
and ideals of private character and
citizenship are being given the future
citizens. The leaders in community
should have in mind city beautiful.
and in every way give their vision to
the people and impart to them their
enthusiasm for its realization.
ITO realize the possibilities of de.
mocracy requires the highest type Of
citizen. If the people are to rule. then
the people must be at to rule. Where
there is no vision the people perish.
Washington as Type Of Citizen.
Washington is the type of citizen
essential to the success of democracy:
He had the moral qualities to risk all
for the interests of the colonies. We
need today the courage that will stand
for the highest ideals. that will sacri-
fce private interests for the public
good and that. il necessary, will stand
alone. But we need the courage to
unite with true men of other political
and religious creeds in planning and
carrying out the undertakings for the
common welfare and to risk our own
shibboleths in the larger responsible
ties and efforts of humanity. Wash
ington championed what seemed then
the hopeless cause of the jealous colo
MES because it was a great principle;
American democracy needs today men
of this nationwide and daring cour-
age.
washington held firmly to the pub
lfc-spirited course which he had cour-
ageously chosen. The colonies failed
often to furnish men and supplies, his
officers became discouraged and some of
them were traitors. but held on with
what Holmes calls the bulldog grip
The efforts of good citizenship in the
United States have been too spasmodic
Before election we wake up and after
election we go to sleep. Our record for
reform reads too much like the record
of the lad. Monday hired, Tuesday
tired, Wednesday fred The encourage
ing fact of the present is that the at
tempts for the public welfare are now
organized and move forward steadily
and persistently. Having clearly in
mind what the District of Columbia
should be, let us work steadily toward
that ideal.

influence of Religion.

THE source of Washington's IDEAL
ism, courage and patience was in his
religion. He was nominally a worship
er in an Episcopal church, but his con-
victions and sympathies were univer-
sal. He believed in the moral order of
the universe. Human personality and
everyday duties were sacred. He caught
from the Master the spirit of service.
These broad and fundamental conyic-
tions alone will give the citizens of to-
day the vision. the courage. the pa
thence and the unity necessary for the
tasks of the nation"

United States Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge of Massachusetts, in a speech
delivered here today before the WASH

popular government, which Washing
ton founded and which. he asserted.
has been lost.
Senator Lodge said that when the
opinions of Washington and Lincoln
on government by the people were
quoted I'VE were told that Lincoln
lived fifty years ago, and Washington
in period of great antiquity. and al
though they were undoubtedly remark
able men in their day. they could

and. moreover, that everything had al
tered since they flourished.

venture to say again. that while am
far from thinking that all the wisdom
died with our forefathers, 1 am per-
fectly certain that all the wisdom was
not born yesterday.
"Reverenced by All Nations
Every thinking man." he continued.
"of any age is disposed IL not eager to
welcome new ideas, but the condition
of his doing so is that the idea shall
be really new as well as beneficial"
He issued warning to the 'peace-at-
any-price" advocates, and in conclusion
said: The men of 'Washington's day
who were for peace at any price frank
ly, because they were afraid and cared
more for money than aught else. are
forgotten. but the name of Washington
is enshrined and reverenced by all ma
tions. Let us not depart from his
teachings or from his high conception
of mans duty. Let us apply that con-
ception now and put it into action
without fear or favor"
