Cement was first put on the market
In England. 1t was still being import

this time that the use of Portland c.

commercial prominence. When the
product was first placed on the mar

What have we in common to cause
us to rise at the call of common I'M
pulse and prepare to die for common
cause? 1T would be easy to formulate
the characteristic dreams Of the Rus
sian, the Italian, the Belgian, the
Scotch, the Irish or the Portuguese. 1t
would be possible to catch the CLEAN of
idealism which has given to the French
the glorious title of the Hero Nation"
But none of these would suffice. We
must take a cross section of all of
them, and a dozen more, to formulate
the ideals which course in common
through them all after they have been
united into what we call America. For
it is common ideals which have trans
formed the men and women Of all these
races and kindreds and tongues into
our nation, which stands today facing
the grim fact of war, a war to which
no man dare call them in the name of
race, or language, or previous allegi-
ance.
World Citizenship.
The President has placed our inter-
vention In this war upon a plane Of
idealism to which every citizen, Of
whatever race, may rally without los
ing hold upon the best traditions Of
the land from which his forefathers
have come. 1t is not the call of mar
row nationalism, but the call of world
citizenship.
Our entrance into this war is no con-
cession to the accursed gospel Of force
and fraud. We wish nothing for our
selves, but have resolved Ito quote the
oft quoted words of our President)
that "the world must be made safe for
demOcracy-and its peace-planned
upon the trusted basis of political lib
erty." We scOrn the idea that might
is right" but we are willing to take
our part in policing the world against
the madmen who act upon that doc
trine.
allow High Your Ideals7" r-
History will not ask us or any other
nation, How big was your army2" but
"How high were your idealsT" Not
How vast your navy?" but What was
your devotion to duty?" Not How
quickly could you mobilize" but
what thought have you contributed
toward the betterment of mankind?"
To those questions Germany can an
swer, 81 contributed to the world the
idea of representation" for, as Monies
quieu tells us, the representative idea
was "born in the forests of Germany"
She will have to confess, however, that
she cast it out, naked infant, in or
der to make room for the throne of
the great, black idol, military power,
and today America and her allies are
marching in resistless columns, carry
ing that founding back to its home
