features the Declaration Of Independ-
ence Is a great spiritual document. 1t
is a declaration not of material, but Of
spiritual conceptions. Equality. lib
erty, popular sovereignty. the rights
Of man-these are not elements which
we can see and touch. They are ideals.
They have their source and their roots
in the religious convictions. They be-
long to the unseen world. Unless the
faith of the American people in these
religious convictions is to endure, the
principles Of our Declaration will
perish. We cannot continue to enjoy
the result II we neglect and abandon
the cause.
I'VE are too prone to overlook an
other conclusion. Governments do not
make ideals. but ideals make govern
ments. This is both historically and
logically true. OF course, the govern
ment can help to sustain ideals and
can create institutions through which
they can be the better observed, but
their source by their very nature Is
in the people. The people have to
bear their own responsibilities. There
is no method by which that burden
can be shifted to the government. 1t

ance of laws. that creates the char

real heart of the American Govern
ment depends upon the heart of the
people
Under a system of popular govern
ment there will always be those who
will seek for political preferment by
Clamoring for reform. While there is
very little of this which is not sincere.
there is a large portion that is not
we'll informed. In my opinion very
little of just criticism can attach to
the theories and principles Of our In
Stitutions. There is far more danger
of harm than there is hope OF good
in any radical changes. We do need
a better understanding and compre-
hension of them and q better knoWl-
edge Of the foundations of govern
ment in general.
Text of Speech.
The full text of the Presidents
speech follows:
Fellow COuntrymen:
eve meet to celebrate the birthday
Of America. The coming of a new
life always eXcites our interest.
Although we know in the case Of the
individual that it has been an infinite
repetition reaching back beyond our
vision, that only makes it the more
wonderful. But how our interest and
wonder increase when we behold the
miracle of the birth of new nation.
1t is to pay our tribute of reverence
and respect to those who participa ted
in such a mighty event that we an
nually observe the 4th day of July.
Whatever may have been the impress
sion created by the news which went
out from this city on that Summer
day in 1876, there can be no doubt
as to the estimate which is now
placed upon it. At the end of $50
years the four corners of the earth
unite in coming to Philadelphia as to
n holy shrine in grateful acknowledge
ment of a service SO great. which "a

| ment in church and state Here was
the doctrine Of equality. popular SOW
ereignty, and the substance OF the
| theory Of inalienable rights clearly
| asserted by Wise at the opening of the
eighteenth century, just as we have
the principle of the consent of the
governed stated by Hooker as early
as 1888.
References to God.
when we take all these circum-
stances into consideration 1t Is but
natural that the first paragraph of
the Declaration of Independence
should open with q reference to ma
lures God and should close in the
final paragraphs with an appeal to
the Supreme Judge of the world and
an assertion of a firm reliance on
Divine Providence. Coming from
these sources. having as 1t did this
background, 1t is no wonder that
Samuel Adams could say. The people
seem to recognize this resolution as
though IT were a decree promulgated
from heaven
mo one can examine this record
and escape the conclusion that in the
great outline of its principles the
Declaration was the result of the re.
ligious teachings of the preceding
period. The profound philosophy
which Jonathan Edwards applied to
theology. the popular preaching of
George Whitefield, had aroused the
thought and stirred the people of the
Colonies in preparation for this great
event. No doubt the speculations
which had been going on in England.
and especially on the Continent. lent
their influence to the general senti-
ment of the times. OF course, the
world Is always influenced by all the
experience and all the thought of the
past. But when we come to a con-
temptation of the immediate concep-
ton OF the principles of human rela-
tionship which went into the Declare
ton of Independence, we are not re.
quired to extend our search beyond
our own shores. They are found in
the texts, the sermons and the writ.
ings of the early colonial clergy who
were earnestly undertaking to instruct
their congregations in the great mys
| terry OF how to live. They preached
| equality because they believed in the
fatherhood of God and the brotherhood
IF man. They justified freedom by
| the text that we are all created in

divine spirit.
Placing every man on a plane
where he acknowledged no superiors
| where no one possessed any right to
rule over him. he must inevitably
choose his own rulers through a sys

their theory of democracy. In those
days such doctrines would scarcely
have been permitted to flourish and
spread in any other country. This
| was the purpose which the fathers
cherished. In order that they might
| have freedom to express these
thoughts and opportunity to put them

colonies. These great truths were In

Half of Blind
Cases Should
Be Prevented
Helen Kellar Says the Nation
Should Be Ashamed of It's
Hospitals and Asylums

st. Louis, Mo-"Half of all blind
ness is preventable," declared DR..
Park Lewis, eminent ophthalmologist
of Buffalo, New York, and vice pres
ident of the National Committee for
the Prevention of Blindness, in an
address before the Chamber of Com
merce here. "This is So" DR.. Lewis
said, despite the important reduc-
tions in both the frequency and Sc
verify of some of the principal causes
of blindness resulting from the or
ganized and nationwide campaign for
the prevention of blindness which is
now in its 18th year. The total
amount of blindness and half sight,
however, is growing proportionately
less"
Speaking on the economci necessity
for conservation of vision, DR.. Lewis
pointed out that the cost of educat-
ing a blind child is at least ten times
that of educating a normal sighted
child. AS further evidence of the
heavy cost to industry resulting from
accidents and diseases affecting the
eyes, he declared that in New York
state alone close to $1,000,000 is paid
as compensation for eye injuries in a
year and that almost an equal amount
is paid by the employers of Pennsy-
lvania each year.
"Helen Keller, that prodigy of our
age, with a keenness of intelligence
and clearness of perception possess
ed by few of US who have all of our
physical senses, said some years ago,
that the time would come when we
would no longer point with pride to
magnificent hospitals and asylums
and poor houses, but would bow our
heads in humiliation and shame to
realize that we had been to such an
extent derelict in meeting the obliga-
tions which we owed to our fellow
men, as to permit the existence of
the conditions which make such
places necessary. May she not have
been in some measure right"

And in the end decided each,
"That child looks just like me-"
They named him Willie, and despite
The name, he seemed to thrive,
A happy, lusty lad he grew,
Seemed glad to be alive.
He ate potatoes, bread and meat,
And colored lollypops,
And oft between his meals he
Drank of soda fountain slops.
At school the doctor said, young man
We have no time to wait.
Why, you're a menace to the rest,
Well have to vaccinate.
He barred his arm, where they might put
The pus from some sick COW,
And though the arm did nearly burst,
He got along somehow
Within year. said Doc. fear
Diphtheria has you.
The antitoXin must be used,
There's nothing else to do:
Then Doe proceeded into Willies
Veins more filth to squirt,
And said that, if it didn't cure,
1t couldn't really hurt.
Poor little Willie barely breathed,
His face was deathly white.
But somehow, he had strength enough,
To pull him through, in spite
Of all the measures Doc. had used,
Believing they would cure.
Unless this were the case, the boy
Had been dead one sure.
In time he found him strong enough
To HE him back to school,
Where they again examined him,
You see it was the rule.
They did not look for causes there,
In fact, did never try,
To find just how he'd lost his health,
And tell the poor boy why.
