A Memorial Day Letter to Juniors
Dear Boys and Girls ef Junior Palladium: War is a great and terrible evil. It has killed, crippled and mangled millions ef men, and has brought poverty, starvation, disease and death to still other millions of men, women and children, because ef its wanton destruction ef lives and property. Bad as war is, though, there are werso things than war. We Americans think that the loss of liberty is worse than war. We think that It is better to endure all the horrors of war than not to be free men and women. War is a terrible price te pay for liberty, but we began eur life as a nation by paying this priee, and we have always stood ready to endure all the auffering that war can bring, rather than lose any of that liberty so dearly bought. We have not only loved liberty for ourselves, but w have wanted others to have freedom, too. It is a great thing for a nation to choose war and: death rather than to be enslaved, and men who give their lives in that kind of a war are men who should be honored and remembered always by their fellow men. But it is a still greater thing to so love liberty that one is willing to die that other men of other nations and of other races may be free. The United States has been that kind of a nation. Our Memorial Day was established to honor and cherish the memory of
the men who died that this nation might remain united, and that not only the white men might be free, but that the black men might be free, 'too. We also honor on Memorial Day the men who offered their lives that the people of Cuba might be delivered from a terrible misgovernment and live their lives under their own laws. And now there has been added to the heroes of these two wars the men who fought in the great war not only for the preservation of our own liberty, but for the liberty of all free people everywhere. Memorial Day is net in memory of war, but in memory of those men who preferred death on the battlefield to the loss of liberty for themselves and who were willing to give their lives that other men might have the same liberty that was theirs. So, let us remember that Memorial Day is set apart not to glorify wars ef conquest or men who fought in such wars, but it was founded and has been continued to perpetuate the memory of the men who fought in unselfish wars. Let us hope that there shall be no more war, but if that cannot be and war must come, let us resolve that our country and our flag shall continue to be found en the side of liberty and justice and right. Sincerely, J. H. BENT LEY, Supt. of Schools.
