to generate it in private plants. The

THE NATIONS FOUNDERS

coed July Fourth thought is that there has
perhaps never been country which was shaped
b people Of such commanding ability and pene-
tratins insight, as those who founded our govern
ment
Up TO the time they created this great ex-
pertinent in freedom. democratic governments had
been failures People got tired Of them, and turn
ed to kings and dictators bettev way to secure
what they wanted
The wonderful men who created this govern
msnt, saw what were the underlying causes for
these failures, and how such difficulties could be
avoided The principle that they butt upon was
That the people are intelligent enough to protect
themselves. II our government is to continue 10
vindcate tbs principle and assure general welfare,
popular education must not be neglected.

DEMOCRATIC SPIRIT

One of the most common remarks made IN re-
gard to the Crown and Princess of Sweden, on
their visit to this country, as to their
democratic spirit The same thing is often re-
marked about royal personages when they come
over here from the old world. The people seem to
think of them as aloof individuals set up very far
on some high throne. But when they see them,
they find they have strong feeling of eomradeship
for the ordinary man and woman.
1t is the same regarding high personages in
this country They do not enjoy an aloof position,
and they value their contacts with the ordinary
run of people, and feel that by such acquaintance
they become better able to do whatever work they
have to do
While democratic spirit is thus common among
the great, it is not always seen among the 'near
great" When some people get up little way on
the ladder they feel Jealous of their position and
desire to associate with those still higher up,
rather than with those supposed to be below them.
Hence they adopt snobbish attitude, and are very
cold and distant if people make approaches to
them. s.
Some cruel snubs are administered to those
who not supposed to have the right social rela-
tions. A woman who ia not .in society," viii be
treated with scant courtesy in exclusive social cir
eles in many places, and be made to feel she is out
Of her element.
Undemocratic manners are a sign not of
greatness, but merely of people who trying to
be great, but have not got there. The people who
adopt lofty and superior manners are apt to be in
f..s< -
courteously. Those who win the public favor enjoy
contacts with all kinds of people, and feel they can
learn something from all.

TRIUMPH OVER DIFFICULTIES

The newspapers tell almost every day of
people who in spite of great physical handicaps,
have accomplished large results. For instance, we
read how a student at Purdue university in In
diana, who has been paralyzed and who never
able to leave his home, had yet won degree with
high distinction and his scholastic work rivals the
best ever done in that institution.
Misfortunes affect different people different
y. Some are inst crushed by them. and they seem
satisfied to have some good excuse for their failure
70 accomplish much. But there are splendid people
who are just stimulated by such misfcrtunes to
quer them and accomplish perhaps more than they
would Il these things had not happened to them.
The triumph Of such a handicapped young fel-
low ought to be lesson to many who are favored
by health and wealth, but who never accomplish
anything out of the ordinary.

HAvANA-KEY WEST EXCURSION

Key West people who may have relatives,
friends or business acquaintance in Havana should
communicate with them and suggest that they take
advantage Of the low Fourth of July passenger fare
and come over to the Island City for day or two
The number of people coming on that ex-
cursion may have considerable influence upon the
p & o. officials in the matter of allowing such
rates at frequent intervals in the future, as was
suggested editorially by The Citizen yesterday.
If the number coming on the excursion Satur
day is satisfactory to the steamship officials and
justifes them in granting the low special rate, it
would mean that they may not be averse to grant
ing such concessions in future, or perhaps giving
regular weekend rates from Havana to Key West
The people of Key West have opportunity
to help out in this matter, and it means great
deal for this city. The visitors from Cuba in
varably add interest to the social life of Key West
and they never fail to spend money freely while
here.
So, it would be splendid idea for the citizens
of Key West to see how many they can be instru-
mental in bringing from Havana to Key West on
the low Fourth of July excursion rate.

RIGHTS AND DUTIES

Too many people are very much interested in
demanding their rights, but are not much concern
ed about the duties that they owe. This thought
was expressed BY DR.. oshea, superintendent Of
schools IN New York city, in requesting that the
teachers read the Declaration Of independence to
their children. He felt that in addition to al the
human rights which are proclaimed under this noble
declaration, they have certain duties which rest
them also, so that the people with whom they come
in contact shall not be deprived of their own rights
great deal has ben said about the United
States being the land Of freedom. but ii is not 50
often remarked thst to obtain the ends we all de-
SIRE there must also be cooperation and harmonious
effort
TheA are many people who 20 through the
ng that their rights are constantly being trampled
upon. Many Of than do not stop to ask the ques-
tion whether they are depriving someone else Of
the things that person has right 70 enjoy.
The. man who is constantly sore because he
thinks he IS being gouged out q few cents or
dollars because Of unjust prices that he has to pay
may himself be depriving someone u his rights By
failing to do a good DAYS work in return for his
ray. by failing TO give the people to whom he sells
goeds or services. full equivalent for what they
