LINCOLN’S WORDS POINT THE DAY Seventy-eight years ago, on November 19, Abe Lincoln delivered his immortal Gettysburg address. This famous oration has been quoted-and repeated so often, that today it has become a part of our lan- guage. We have heard the Gettysburg address often enough to know it by heart, but many of us do not know the conditions that ‘prompted Lincoln to deliver it. Eighteen cooperating northern states | had buried the soldiers that had fallen in battle at Gettysburg. A dedication pro- gram to honor the dead soldiers was plan- ned with Edward Everett, a distinguished orator of that time, as the main speaker. President Lincoln was asked to make a few brief remarks after the main event. Atthe time of this history-making speech, Mr. Lincoln did not know what the outcome of the war would be. The armies of the Confederacy were still intact, and large sctions of the northern * population were sick of the war. The election was not far off, and Mr. Lincoln was not sure that he commanded enough votes to get re- elected. He knew how important it was that his few remarks be a success. He had to per- suade the people of the North that they were fighting the battle of freedom and that they must fight on so that the dead Northern soldiers would not have died in vain. Lincoln delivered his short and care- fully worded talk with complete poise and in a manner denoting sincerity and strength. , The true greatness of Mr. Lincoln’s speech was not recognized immediately; time and history have, however, put the Gettysburg Address among the greatest of the great. Years after Mr. Lincoln died, many writers believed that the talk was spon- taneous; they believed that Lincoln de- pended upon the occasion for his inspira- tion. A number of scholars today, how- ever, believe that in preparing this speech Mr. Lincoln made one of the supreme ef- forts of his life; They point to the fact that he knew how important it was that his; | speech be a:success, and that he was not the | ‘kind of man to treat his duties lightly. Today, we of Anierica “need anbdéhier( | Gettysburg address. Many brave Amer- ican sailors have lost their-lives on the high | seas. Have they died in vain? And are the British, Russians, and Chinese dying in vain in their fight for freedom? It would be i good to hear Abraham Lincoln again, tell- ing the people of America the importance of fighting for freedom.
