tartan disputes and will understand
no rivalry except rivalry in doing
good.
We have sent these boys to the
great University of the World and
they have returned to us big hearted,
broad visioned, deep-souled.
From every quarter have come Of
fetal reports giving detailed accounts
| of the valor of our soldiers on land,
on sea and in air, no nation can boast
| of greater examples of fortitude and
courage.
In honoring our American troops
we paw tribute to men who made the
cleanest, the bravest, the knightliest,
the mightiest army that ever marched
to battle.
| The past two years tell wonder
full story.
Stupendous things have been &C
complished.
The patriotism and brains that
have led us thus far, are still at the
helm.
Let us have faith and be loyal.
We are now at one Of the greatest
and gravest periods in history.
The world looks to America and
you are America. The armistice is
signed but peace is not yet. The
very foundations of civilization are
trembling in the balance.
Let it not, in truth, again be said
of US as Germany stated, that when
she struck, Belgium would be be-
numbed with fright, France in decay,
England in Indifference and America,
America in business
We must plead guilty, but you
flung the charge back into German
teeth, and they now know that when
ever the bugle calls you'll answer,
s'Here," that in the days to come you
will seek the nations good above all
persona! interests.
To our women, word, you who
formed that great third linz of de-
! tense. you who gave your first born.
or perhaps your only boy, keep to
the standard. There is yet work to
do, "woman's function" is guiding
not a determining one. You remem-
Der the story of Queen Esther, how
she shrank from entering the pres
ence of the King unbidden. But her
uncle demanded that she save her
people saving: who knows but thou
art come to the kingdom TO- such a
time as this
Let that be as a message to you
"who knows but thou art come te the
kingdom for such time As this"
What we say here to-day can add
nothing to tie fame of our beloved
dead, there is glory which sur
passes words -,
II is for the living that we hold
such a service, that they may learn
from the dead, the sublime lessons OF
sacrifice, service and patriotism:
So to-day while we do honor to
our fallen heroes, let US dedicate our
selves anew to the principles OF the
Stars and Stripes.
Let us pledge one to the other
that the great deeds done by the
american boys shall not be in vain.
Let us, as citizens be as brave and
as worthy as our sons and daughters
who wore the uniforms of the nation
and of the great Red Cross.
Let us catch the vision that is
theirs. Let us pray as did Solomon
| of old. for largeness of heart. "Nar-
irowness of heart makes War, Large
ness of heart brings peace"
