patriotism from the housetop'
they are necessarily not in gym

no greater mistake 10 judgmen
was ever made
The American people as maze
have regretted the o. cessity f'l
going t. war. We had hoped
against hope that it could be
avoided. Even at this day there
il an undercurrent of hop that in
some way, consistent with honor,
the dire consequences of war as
felt by the European nations may
be avoided,
But while this hope is in the ma.
tional heart. there il also In that
heart q grim. deadly determine.
ton that Ger ain objects must be
attained. even though our sacrifice
equal OF exc led that Of the others.
Our people were slow to arouse
even yet are only partially awake,
but In the great heart ofthe nation
there il steadily awakening that
inherent loyalty to our great ideals
that has carried US triumphantls
through every crisis that has ever
confronted us. This feeling Is not
built upon froth It is not the re-
suit OF hysteria It is born and
bred 10 us, and is az much par,
of Us a. our very life blood.
The attitude Of the American
people today is that Of facing a
duty-a very disaereeabl- duty
blu one Of which there can be no
iaintest thought Of our sinking
or vadiog. We are coming to see
before Us a gigantic task. but a
tack upon the accomplishment Of
which depends all we have hoped
I Tor aud longed for and striven for
during the century and half Of
our existence.
