- made. BY not one Jot or title can the returns be
changed but something be changed And that is
the enmities that have ourished during the campaign
These be changed forgotten. rubbed from the slate
and we get with the new task that lies on our
desk - the matter of rushing national defense,
tell you is hard to do! This matter of orgvng and
forgetting and going with tasks. But now and
then happens now and then there person who
fix his eyes objective and forget the past per
son so big so filled with understanding for the fraties
of mankind that he will try to bridge chasm that
only few have the courage to cross But what fine
thing it is when person does make that attempt
Let me tell you of who set out upon that
bridge He was Lloyd George. once Prime Minister of
England the of iron will He had trouble with
Lord Rothschild, who powerful in the financial
world Lloyd George in the political 1t started
the budget but grew personal and bitter The two
hated the sight of each other. When they met in the
coakroom they gared One day Lloyd George got up in
Parliament and attacked Lord RothsChild But Lord
Rothschld did not sit and take it. Far from it. He got
to his feet and fought hot words with hotter.
Then came the World War.
Llovd George became Chancellor of the Exchequer.
The Allies were fighting for their lives and must have
money. And more money. There was one man IN
England who knew more about money than any other
man, and he was Lord Rothschild. Lloyd George set
out upon the bridge. He said Send for Lord Rothschild

Ask him if he will let come to see him..
Lord RothsChid hesitated. Was this some political
expedient? Then he went part way out on the bridge
himself. Tell him he may come
When the two faced each other Lloyd George stepped
forward and held out his hand,
We've had some unpleasantness in our time but
now we're faced by bigger issue than ourselves Let's
forget the past. Will YOU"
Yes. I've forgotten it already. What can do?' .
LLOYD GEORGE explained and Lord Rothschild under
took the work And now comes the surprising part -
the part that makes have faith the abiding quail
tiles of Humankind As the two worked side by side,
they began respect each other This respect grew.
1t warmed into friendship They became not only
friends, but staunch friends.
And that makes think of a tall farm boy In
Ashland County, Ohio who studied by coal-ol lamps
and got learning into his head He went away to Ohio
State University at Columbus and got diploma He
was imbued with immense desire for learning, for he
wanted to be an inventor. But his money gone,
he went back to the country and got job teaching
school, The farmers shook their heads they said he
ruined for honest work.

At about this time there came to town very strange
exhibit Some professor had contraption which he
claimed could look right through a board. 1t was 50
strange against common sense that no one believed
in it except the young schoOeacher He was so excited
about that he asked the farmers to haul the school
children to town 50 they could the X-ray machine
with their own eyes No farmer such fool as that.
So the young schoolteacher walked his pupils ten miles
to see the contraption. When he got back tongues
buzzed The most scandalzed was local preacher who
went to the school officials and said the young man
ought be fired for showing their children the work of

teachers giving up his job and getting another as

Charles F. kettering was the Devils hired man. One
day. after the bitterness had its edge little
one asked Keterng if he didn't hate the preacher who
had caused him much trouble. Its all over now and
nothing can be changed so why should hate him."
