great storm. noting the marks of de-
struction and yet rejoicing in the rug
sedness of the things whics withstood
il, if he is an American he breathes
the clarified atmosphere with a
strange mingling of regret and new
hope. We have seen world passion
spend it's fury, but we contemplate
our republic mistaken and hold our
civilization secure. Liberty - liberty
within the law--and civilization are
inseparable and though both were
threatened we find them now secure,
and there comes to Americans the
profound assurance that our repre-
sentative government is the highest
expression and surest guaranty OF
both.
Standing in this presence. mindful
of the solemnity of this occasion, feel
ing the emotions which no one may
know until he senses the great weight
of responsibility for himself, l must
utter my belief in the divine inspira-
ton of the founding fathers. Surely
there must have been Gods intent in
the making of this new world republic.

nation supreme and its concord in

it's hopeful gaze on the great truths
on which the founders wrought. We
have seen civil. human and religious
liberty verified and glorified. In the
beginning. the old world scoffed at our
experiment. today our foundations OF
political and social belief stand un :
shaken. a precious inheritance to our
selves. an inspiring example of free
dom and civilization IN all mankind.
Let us express renewed and strength

the immortal beginning and utter our
confidence in the supreme fulfillment.
Progress Proves Wisdom
The recorded progress of our re-

itself proves the wisdom of the in
herited policy of -invdnment in
old world affairs. Confident OF our
ability to work out our own destiny
and jealousy guarding our right to do
so, we seek no part In directing the
destinies of the old world. We do not

cept no responsibility except as our
own conscience and judgment in each
instance may determine.
Our eyes never will be blinded to q
developing menace, our ears never deal
to the call of civilization. We recog-
nize the new order in the world, with
the closer contacts which progress has
wrought. We sense the feeling of the
human heart for fellowship. fraternity
and cooperation. We crave friend

the foundation laid by the inspired
fathers, can be a party to no perma-

into no political commitments, nor as
sumo any economic obligations or sub

our own authority.
] am sure our own people will not
misunderstood nor will the world mis-
construe. We have no thought to i'm
pede the paths to closer relationship.
We wish to promote understanding.
We want to do our part in making Of
fensive warfare so hateful that gov
ernments and peoples who resort to
it must prove the Righteousness of
their cause or stand as outyaws be-
fore the abr of civilization.
Association for Council
We are ready to associate ourselves
with the nations of the world, great
and small. for conference, for counsel,
to seek the expressed views of world
opinion. to recommend a way to ap-
proximate disarmament and relieve
the crushing burdens of military and
naval establishments. We elect to
participate in suggesting plans for
mediation. conciliation and arbitration
and would gladly join in that ex-
pressed conscience of progress, which
seeks to clarity and write the laws Of
international relationship, and estab-

practical plans. in translating human
ity's new concept OF Righteousness,
justice and its hatred of war into rec

heartily to unite. but every commit

contrary to everything we cherish and

Today better than ever before, we
know the aspirations Of human kind

of these United States is a thing
proven. our devotion to peace for our
selves and for the world is well es-
tablished. our concern for preserved
civilization has had its impassioned
and heroic expression. There was no
American failure to resist the attempt
ed reversion of civilization, there will
be no failure today or tomorrow.
Rest on Popular Will
The success of our popular govern
ment rests wholly upon the correct in
depreciation of the deliberate, intelli-
gent dependable, popular will OF
America. In deliberate questioning of
4 suggested change of national policy
where internationally was to super
cede nationity, we turned to a refer
endum to the American people. There
was ample discussion and there Is
public mandate in manifest under

America is ready to encourage, eager

probability of war and promote that
brotherhood of mankind which mus.

ADJUSTMENTS
500 Costumes
All Different
Worn by Beauties

Big things and beautiful things
and funny things and a whole lot of
other things will attract attention
and compel interest in "A Small
Town IDOL the Mack Sennett six
the Augusta Opera house today and
Saturday.
But Of all the many incidents and
scenes that will rivet the attention,
none will cause more interest than
that in which 500 Mack Sepnett
beauties appear in one episode and
every one Of the girls wears a cos
tune different from that of her
neighbor. All these costumes were
designed by Nine. Violet L. Schofield.
wardrobe mistress of the Sennett
studios
When the Comedy King conceived
this scene taken from the riotious
life of ancient Rome, he decided that
if it was worth doing at all. it was
worth doing well. So he had ma
Jestic set built-a city block in length
representing a vast coliseum, the
arena of which was to be given over
to extravagant reveis presided over
by comedy conception of an eccen-
| trio Nero surrounded by beauty
brought from the four corners of the
globe. Five hundred girls were Sc
! lected to appear, in addition to the
regiment OF beauties belonging to
the regular Sennett organization.
Undismayed by the magnitude of
her task. Nine. Schefeld met the
| girls of the army OF five hundred by
squads and platoons. Each girl was
given individual attention as though
her costume was the only one to be
considered-so far as the wearer was
concerned, she could not nave been
more particularly noted and accom-
modated by the modiste had she been
fashionable patron ordering a dar-
| ing costume for some fabulous Mardi
Gras celebration.
! But, as has been said, this scene is
! but one of the many that will make
Augusta people glad they have wit
messed this best of all Sennett pro-
auctions. "A Small Town Idel' is
comedy, drama and spectacle rolled
| into one with the best talent that
Sennett can offer from his big COM
ranies.

duction. That alone ought to be suf-
ficient to cause the Opera house to
