had been handed down by the fathers

Well-studied and thoughtful effort, es-

some times. By way of introduction
the speaker mentioned the fact that
for several years during his young
manhood he himself was a school
teacher, and always had been greatly
interested in matters pertaining to the
public schools. Our system of public
schools, he said, was the foundation

The War for Democracy

Turning to the war, Mr.. Hazelet said
that while the Hun was far from being
defeated as yet, he retained the con
viction formed at the inception of the
conflict, that Germanys defeat was
inevitable, and that the reign of mill
tarism, with its orgies of murder and
destruction, was approaching its end.
Democracy was bound to triumph, and
the rights of small nations to self
government and development along
the lines of their own peculiar insti-
tutions and national aspirations would
be safeguarded.
But this desired end could not be at
tanned without sacrifice At the COM
mencement of the war he had been
asked how far he thought the United
States would go in prosecuting it's
battle for democracy and the rights
of smaller and weaker nations against
the domination of a military autocracy
He had unhesitatingly answered that
this country would place the whole of
its resources in men and money at
stake He still adhered to that opinion.
Must Make Real Sacrifices
But the war was not going to be
won without great sacrifice on our
part, continued the speaker. He ven
tured the assertion that we in Alaska
had not yet made any sacrifices to aid
in winning the war. True, he said,
some of us had given some money,
and some had given of their time and
labor in aid of the great war activities

stone of the republic. and was par
ticularly suited to our form of govern
ment. The nation could not long en-
dure without the democratizing in
fluence of the public schools, where
the children of rich and poor mingled
and became imbued with the spirit
of of our free institutions, learning to
view life's problems from the stand
points of all stratas of society, and
thus being mentally broadened This
was not possible in private or sectar-
ian schools, because children there
learned to look on life from the mar
row viewpoint of their own particular
class or religion. The public school
was the means of propagating the
principles of political and religious
liberty. The future of the country
could be best assured by Iiberality in
, appropriations for the schools, by the
payment of good salaries to the teach
ers, and by demanding of these teach
ers the best that is in them.
