ii should be regarded as a glorious priv
ilege by every patriot to uphold the
governments credit with the same kind
of self-sacrifice and nobility of soul that
our gallant sons exhibit when they die

is as imperative to sustain the govern

The courage and resources of the ma

they are properly organized and intelli-
gently used. The economic and finan-

enjoy all the delights that attend the
triumphal tour of a debutante launched
upon a round of visits to the girls she
knew in school or college, and he will
be conscious of a sincerity, a real pride
and joy in his presence that warns his
heart to the community. Passing on from
one town to another. say from Cincin-
natl to Cleveland, from Kansas City
to Denver from Omaha to Minneapolis,
he finds that news of his approach has
preceded him. The people he has met at
his last stopping place have wired every
body they know at the next point In his
itinerary to be on the lookout for him.
and he finds that instead of entering a
strange port there are friends--veritable

escapes the eye of the reception COM
