ANOTHER FOURTH.

In 1776 the hardy pioneers Of
the colonies fought as one tc
throw off the CALLING yoke of the
British king. They succeeded and
a new nation was born. In 1861
this nation, grown to large pro
portions and unable to reconcile
its sectional differences, entered
upon the greatest civil war OF
istory-father against son,
brother against brother, neighbor
against neighbor.
In 1917 this same country, by
then the greatest Of earth, cross
ed the seas In its might and end
cd the most devastating war the
world has ever known. This time
Sit was father and son, brother
and brother, neighbor and neigh
bor-no section, no creed-just
an outpouring Of love for a ma
ton by the people Of all parts of
that nation.
Lesser wars we have had, but
all have been fought in honor and
justice, and have exerted their
influence in perpetuating the
glorious independence won in the
outpouring of the blood of 1776.
All have demonstrated that as
Americans we fight not for con-
quest or for the love Of fighting,
but only in defense of right, JUS
tice, humanity and our national
independence.
On July we will celebrate the
glories of our past. They are
worthy Of the homage we render.
But on the other days Of the
year let us not forget Let us
strive to perpetuate that glory,
to enhance our splendors, and to
stimulate our humanity to the
point where all historians will re-
cord us as a people who are equal
to all emergencies but above the
petty iealousies that create them
Ia nation so mighty as to bring
death with every sweep of its
arm, but with mind and heart |
so gentle that none may have rea-
son to fear encroachments upon
their rights.
We have much to celebrate on
independence Day, but with the
aid of Him who created all peo-
pies and all things we will have
more as time goes on.
1t is the spirit which has lived
since. the days of rs.
