The Foundation Of our democracy Is order and
system.
Our Colonial forefathers learned order and
system from the discussion Of their social, busi-
ness and political affairs long before the Ameri-
can revolntion- they practiced it in town meet
inss.
They learned that progress. reform, does not
come q win or ideal Of one-that the might
Of one or Of few does not make the right Of al.
Our Colonial forefathers carried the spirit Of
quiet, orderly discussion to the framing Of the
Declaration Of Independence, later to that very
orderly and systematic document, the Constftu-
ton Of the United States; and after the revolu-
ton this habit Of quiet, orderly discussion prov
ed the training for self -government. one genera
ton unto another, in the national life which has
followed.
The lesson from this. for all Of u Of this gen.
GRAFTON. and particularly young men and women,
Is that we should pursue the practice Of quiet,
orderly discussion as individuals-the practice
that has been found workable in the upbuilding
Of this nation, that we may become strong as
individuals and stronger nation.
That every young man and woman should
make the joining and participating in an organi-
cation part of his or her education to citizen
ship.
Begin with the school organization, follow it
with the business or social organization the
church, the lodge, the club-any that have q
purpose beyond themselves.
Learn from the discussion of their affairs !;
learn from participation in the discussions
always quietly, with thought rather than fc 81
ing.
Learn that the strongest men and women in
these organizations-the leaders of them-are
those who present truth with order and system
with the most thought and the least feeling
That while an individual may be right as
against an organization, that even whole peo-
pie may be wrong at times yet it is only the pro-
cess by which they finally get right.
Learn that permanent reforms come by slow
and orderly courses; that they come, one process
on another, quietly, unnoticed naturally, like the
changing seasons of the year-winter into
spring, spring into summer; summer into fall.

THE WISE MEN.

THE WISE MEN.
Will July lst usher in the evening twilight
prohibition, the might" of the open saloon, as
the day of genuine, bone-dry, boozeless nation?
asks the Rev. Charles Stetze.
Nobody knows excepting President Wilson
and he won't tell.
A few months ago it was generally accepted
that the wartime prohibition bill which goes into
effect on July would put an END to demon
rum"
But the war ended-and it's serious ques-
ton whether Woodrow Wilson may not declare
that we have been sufficiently demobilized by
July / to make wartime prohibition" unneces-
sary-and he alone is to be the Judge.
The prohibitionists are confident. They pro-
fess to believe that the president is too wise a
politician to interfere with the already enacted
law.
But the liquor men are not so sure They have
several lines out and they are hoping that they
win be given at least six months more lease Of
life after July /, or until the constitutional
amendment for prohibition becomes effective on
January is, 1920.
The mo beer, no work" agitation Is part of
their game. Central labor bodies all over the
country are now voting on this question. II
enough Of them appear to favor this proposal,
the liquor men, through their labor representa-
tfves win appear before President Wilson to show
him what labor-spelled with big az" wants.
Meanwhile, wise men in the liquor business
are converting their breweries into storage
houses. shoe factories, ice making plants and
other useful enterprises, and real estate men are
already finding other tenants for their saloon
property, incidentally raising the rents Of lofts
and apartments in the same buildings, which
they had been compelled to lease ct . lower fig
