OUCH OF THE DAY.

Peace without honor, cannot, shall not
be,
Columbus thy name is Liberty.
Grid up thy loins, o land of Washing
ton,
Behind thee dauntless stands each
loyal SON.
America, the world is in revolt,
Prepare to launch for truth Jove's
mighty bolt.
Peace without honor-slogan of the
slave,
Peace, honor, freedom, doth exalt the
brave.
Columbia, rise, extend thy gracious
hand,
To ev'ry lowly, weeping, ravished land,
Then strike with all ~puissanee, if need
be,
For right, for freedom and for liberty

THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY.

In my country and her destiny.
In the great dream Of her founders.
In her place among nations.
In her ideals.
l believe
That her democracy must be protected
Her privileges cherished.
Her freedom defended.
That humbly before the Almighty.
l believe
But proudly before all mankind,
We must satisfy her standard,
The vision of her Washington,
The martyrdom Of her Lincoln,
With the patriotic ardor
Of the minute men
And the patriotic songs.
OF her glorious past.
I believe
In loyalty to my country,
Utter, irrevocable, inviolate.
