BILL OF RIGHTS
Address by Rev. Fr agn 1t Park Theatre Meeting Monday


Centuries ago our first fore
fathers abandoned Europe with
its turmoil and hatreds and per-
secutions and tyranny to find
freedom and brighter prospects
on the shores of America. When
tyranny still stretched its cruel
gripping hand across the ocean,
they broke forever with Europe
and wrote Constitution of their
own. That Constitution is one
of the great monuments of hu-
man history. 1t was the earliest
written compact as the tounda-
ton of great state.
One hundred and fifty years
ago today. there was added q
Bill of Rights. in the form of the
first ten amendments, to the
original Constitution. T h e e
amendments contain the itemized
rights. that mans long and bite.
experience had found to be ne
cessary for decent and peaceable
existence in society. 1t put into
effect the dreams of philosophers.
1t held the torch for one of the
greatest centuries of progress
our race has seen.
Under the protection of that
Constitution, our hardy forebears
gathered their families in t. o
rough wagons, pushed up over
the Alleg hany mountains and
down into the fertile valleys of
the Ohio. Here and there a
group dropped out of line, cleared
away the primeval forests. plant
ed wheat and corn. set up saw
mills and flour mills. and esta-
blished new communities. Some
of the more hardy pushed on
westward. forded the mighty
Mississippi. staked out the plains
and transformed that vast silent
expanse into gardens and or
chards and corn fields. Or with
indomitable energy, they dug
deep into the earth. dragging
| forth its treasures of iron and
copper and converting them into
instruments of use and comfort.
And finally the hardest of all
drove their oxen over the piled
/ up sand of the deserts. climbed
the Rockies and tho Sierras and
dropped down exhausted into the
untitled valleys of California.
And soon those valleys on the
shores of the Pacific were trans
formed into smiling orchards
surrounding happy homes.
! 1t took labor. it took courage,
it took indomitable energy. but
above all it demanded unlimited
confidence in the Constitution
written by themselves or their

Our thoughts and plans are so
suddenly turned from a Merry
Christmas that we all are united
in another great interest-that of
doing our undivided bit to bring,

been most eXtravagant in its use
and waste at Christmastime.

methods for collecting and ship
ping it for our defense manufact-
