Definition of America

In the heat and the strife of the war I was
asked once to give my definition of America, and
l said to the men: "To me America is infinitely
more than an aggregate of 100000 900 men; to
me America is all that the submerged races of
the world wish to be and cannot; to me America
is the concrete realization of what the ages have
hoped for and labored for" That was my defini-
ton 1 gave to them.
at is Il definition. 1t is a creed. It is n chal.
lenge. God built a continent of glory and filled
it with treasures untold. He carpeted it with soft
rolling prairies and pillared 1t with laundering
mountains. He studded it with soft flowing foun.
tains and traced it with long winding streams.
He graced it with deep Swallowed forests and
filled them with song.
"Then he called unto a thousand peoples and
summoned the bravest among them. They came
from the ends of the earth, each bearing a gift
and n hope. The glow of adventure was in their
eyes and the glory of hope within their souls.
And out of the labor of men and the bounty of
earth, out of the prayers of men and the hopes
OF the world, God fashioned n nation In love,
blessed It with a purpose sublime and called ii
