LINCOLN'S FATHER

 Lincoln, father of President Lincoln
 was not a great man. but he was
 good neighbor, honest, sobcr re
 liEious, truthful and paid his taxes
 pr. W. F.. Barton of Oak Park. all thority on Lincoln, whose family his tory he traced. said today in an ad- dress at the dedication of a monu- ment to Thomas Lincoln and Sarah Bush Lincoln, stepmothcr Of the emancipator
 letter from President Coolidge was read at the ceremony, held under the auspices Of the Lions club of Illinois, paying tribute to the virtues which made possible the boyhood home of Abraham Lincoln. Frank c. Lowden. former governor of Illinois. spoke of Abraham Lincoln and his influence on the nation and the world.
 Thomas Lincoln and Sarah Bush Lincoln are buried in the old Shiloh cemetery, three and one-half miles from their home at Goose Nest Prairie. near f'arminrt on. Thomas grave was formerly marked hy monument, but it mad been badly clipped and defaced. His wfo's grave. adjoining, had never been marked.
 "The worlds debt to Abraham I.incoln's mother Nancy Hanks lin- coln," wrote President Coolidge, has already been acknowledged in the appropriate monument standing in the midst of s beautiful park estab- lished and maintained hy Indiana. It is fitting that a similar expression of gratitude should now be erected in honor of his second mother. Sarah Lincoln. and Of his father. Thomas Lincoln. Humble as these two people were. their virtues are those which constitute the basis Of our American institutions, They were honest, sober, virtnous and kind of heart. The education which they lacked they encoura Ged their son to secure and were proud when he rogo to a position which they could never themselves have attained, This is the spirit of true parenthood, sac rificisl. devoted and sincere,
 "rhis stone is tribute also to tho vast company Of humble mon and women, of whom the Lincoln family may be considered representative. Theirs were tho courage and the on- durance of the pioneer; theirs were the aspiration and the vision of better things to come which have carried American civilization across the mountains and to the farther ocean.
 Americas hope is in tho stability and purity Of its home lie. This monument commemoratcs not simply the individuals above whose dust it is erected. but the home which they established and maintained, That home. lacking though it was in all our present luyuries and m many Of our comforts, was adequate for tho development Of charScter. it gave 10 the world Abraham Lincoln"

In American life. Some are obviously
from, lifelong students OF history and
international law. Some are from per
sons who have studied little, but who
have themselves seen and felt the
horror Of war-or who are even now
living out Its tragedy.
But among them all are these dom.
inant currents: that. II war Is hon
estly to be prevented. there must be
4 ~face-about on the part Of the nations
In their attitude toward It: that by
some progressive agreement the man

lions Of war must be limited or stop
ped; that while no political mechan-
ism alone will insure cooperation
among the nations. there must be
some machinery Of cooperation II the
will to cooperate is to be made effec-
tive; that mutual counsel among the
nations is the real hope for bringing
about the d~isavowal of war by the
