Iectured on American Citizenship
Great opportunity-Real and Lasting Peace Dspends Largely Upon Us

i It doesn't take times of stress and anxiety to show who are the good and hyphen has been in the country a long time, not made in Germany We have a deal of industrial unrest in our country. Strikes. riot and bloodshed forgetting the ideals of Americauism use people and events for their own personal gain are not true Americans. Our public schools teach that a man shall be judged by his merit and his work, that everyone can rise. that he will not be bound by race, creed or color. Yet when it comes to the crit ical test does it always work out that way? Do we not allow prejudice along those lines to warp our Judgment and our ideals? In politics are we not often governed by unworthy ideals Any influence not used for the good of our neighbors is treason. The ballot should be sacred to the advancement of the public good, never as a means of showing friendship or of personal prejudice.
 We give to the children the text but
 we do not i'll 1t with meaning. We do not wait until they are of school age to teach them politeness. We from very early age frown upon certain things.
 We should frown upon un-Ameri- canism even more than lack of polite ness. We should begin at home and |semphaeize certain things.
 The phrase We the people" is of
 unusual significance in America It really means something. Many of our peculiarly American customs and in- stitutions nhouid be given greater prominence in the cf1ild's mind and he should know what 1t means to be an
 American.
 It is not strange that it has taken
 us so long to realize this war. We
 have thought of America only in a national sense. We were free, no mat
 ter what happened to the rest of the
 world. It was none of our business. So we have allowed England, France and Belgium to do our work for us. We hate war and instinctively recoil from it. Russia has had time to gain freedom at such a great price and heroic self sacrifice. And we still sit by. We didn't realize the menace or know that when democracy is threat ened we are all endangered The dan ger of one is the danger of all. We must make common cause.
 The peace which ensues after war will depend largely upon us. We want real and lasting peace, not a truce, and only by joining the laboring na- tions of the earth shall such a peace be made possible.

SOx First TO Score.
They were first 10 score, gather
ing in their initial run in the third
when, after Schalk had been retired
at first by Zimmerman, Cicotte sin
gled through second. John Collins
followed with another TO right and
Cicotte was thrown out ~ third BY
Robertson. while Collins took sec
ond on the throw across the dia-
mond From the midway sack he
was able 10 score easily when Nc
Mullin doubled over second. The
second and deciding run OF the con
test was home run drive Of re
markable power and length by
Felsch in the fourth, when the SOX
centerfelder, caught one of Sallee'S
sweeping curves on the end Of his
bat and sent the ball soaring more
than 400 feet into the l9tt center
bleachers Tt is doubtful if lustier
home run blow has ever been deliv-
cred in modern worlds series.
The Giants lone tally came in the
following inning when Catcher Nc
Carly hammered out a three-base
hit between Felsch and J. Collins
which might have gone for a home
run also had the Giants backstop
been able 10 run faster. Recently
recovered from a broken leg. how
ever, the best McCarty could do was
20 reach third, from which point ne
