MOST MEMORABLE IN HISTORY ( (Continued from Page One) | through the discourse of an hour. Every moment was freighted with Interest. I Though a native of England, he said that his parents had instilled into the education of their children, the great principles as taught and exemplified by American statesmen, thinkers and philosophers, whom he named, preparing him for an enjoyment and appreciation of his life in this, the country of his choice. He traced the making of the country through ithistorical epochs; the saving of the union by the boys in blue: the welding of the north and south: and tlie j liberty-making epochs in detail, and, the part played by this country in sav-, ing liberty for the world He called to mind the fact that at the same time that memorial set vices were held here the president and General Pershing and others were holding memorial services in Frame for American boys who fell in battle there, and the fact j that not one, anywhere, was forgotten >n this day. He brought to mind the menace of bolshevism and the I. W. W.’s and stated that every person should play the part of a detective nnd try to bring to the light, any thing that savors of disloyalty or harm to th-. t ernment. He also took occasion at this time, to speak a word for the Salvation army. He praised their work in the war and spoke of the high esteem in which they are held, especially by the boys in khaki, and urged that they be remembered in the coining drive. - J. 11.
