PATRIOTISM A VITAL FORCE
BY FRANCIS GRIERSON

Editors note-Franci5 Grierson holds an cE-
certionaI place in the intellectual world. His
literary and political works are now in all the
leading libraries in Europe ard America. He
writes about the present world crisis with far
seeing vision, bringing into service his aclnaint-
Nnce with European statesmen, his experience
at the courts OF RUssia Germany and Austria
and his wide knowledge Of literature and art VI
the leading capitals of the worid)
One consists in fine words. the other
in fine deeds. one is orderly, the
other is disorderlY
The cheap kind is always ready for
hurried explanations and Hurried
rhetoric. the thing called spread.ea-
gleism. the thing that is on the lips
but not in the heart.
To possess backbone patriotism
should be founded on reason as well
as on feeling and sentiment. Mere
feeling is often blind as well as weak.
and impulsiveness in times of trou-
BE only adds fuel to the universal
conflaEration.
Without being able to tell the Diff
ference between true and false pa
triotism it would be idle to expect
any progress in national ideals. The
AnCients put patriotism along with re-
liEion.
In order to place our national aspi-
rattOns on a sound basis the people
must first be made to realize to the
full what their country stands for.
Americans who do not believe that
America is the best country for fu-
ture achievement are not good pa
tTiots.
As a man thinks so Is he.
As a nation thinks so it will be with
that nation. There is no separating
individuals from the national inten-
ton. individuals either go forward
or backward, and nations do the
same.
Until We begin to study the psy-
chology OF national greatness we do
not begin to advance toward solid
achievement.
A man who puts his own interests
first only succeeds in hampering the
general trend Of progress and gives
an example to the egoist to go and
do likewise.
We cannot be moral on Sunday and
immoral on week days, patriots while

optimists abroad. without courting
defeat at the time of crisis.
The meaning Of Americanism is
clear, and America should be the
home of leaders in the forward move
ment Of great world interests found
ed on great ideals.
It is not enough to think our coun-
try the best 1t is not enough to
vote for the best man, for the best
man. If he gets elected. would prove
powerless to deal with sectional diff
ferences, clashing opinions and the
self-interests Of individuals.
Patriotism should be taught in our
interest and the clashing OF small
groups and parties. Until this is done

sible
1t is not enough to be a weIl-meanfng

Without a fundamental knowledge
of American history the word patriot

We do not stand alone in ignorance
