Homer S. Cummings | of Stamford, typified the spirit at the annual Columbus Day banquet Daly council, Knights of Columbus, in the recreation hall of the Elks' Home on Washington street last night. It was a thoroughly patriotic gathering and none of the speakers thrilled by the return from the Mex ican border of the Connecticut troops failed to pay homage to the Stars and Stripes which banked the walls. Tt was estimated that 160 were in attendance and every one of those 160 left the hall a better American, mors eager to uphold the dignity and wel- fare of the greatest nation on earth. The speakers included Governor Holcomb, Mayor Quigley, Rev. Par- rick J. McGivney, brother of Rev. | Michael J. McGivney, founder of the X and personal representative of Rt. Rev. John J.

One of the pleasant in- cidents of the banquet was the pres- entation of a solid gold past grand knight's jewel to Thomas Tarran®, first grand knight of the consolidate. | councils. The presentation was made by P. F. King. As far as the concerned nothing too said. From grapefruit was an excellent menu. Amonz the guests of the evening, In addition to the speakers, were Re Patrick Daly, pastor of St, church; Rev, J. Leo Sulli J. E. Fay, Rev. William Rev. Charles Coppens, ex-Senator George M.

In his address Governor Holcomb | gave a short accoun! of his trip to the Mexican border. he had become pessimistic concern- ing America’s patriotism and abilitv | to uphold her natonal honor so ho went to the border to see what he could see. What he saw changed his opinion as he came in contact with the finest, healthiest, most eager sol diers it had ever been his pleasure to meet. The governor referred to the Mexicans as a people by using the term “bandits” and he said he was not so certain that the trouble was all over yet. He believed it possible that more trouble might occur minute Uncle Sam removes Governor Holcomb spirit of the boys in khaki and said they were anxious to cross the in- ternational line on the dead run with guns loaded. “If you don't belie He said the his troop: roferred to the Stripes | § $1k | 2 of | [ world.” I and YOU'LL iots, tion. §2-84 ASYLUM ST.

He spoke of the perpeual life of the Catholic church, which has withstood the raavages of ages while nations decay and are forgotten. He told his audi- cnce that Celumbus came to this country not to enrich his own purse o much as to spread the Gospel among the people of the East Indies, the land he thought he would reach by a westward passage.

Without metioning the name of Woodrow Wilson, he drew a mental picture of what might have happened to the soldier boys had not a firm hand been at the helm. “Three million men have been killed in Europe” he said. “This c'oes no include the innumerable mass that must spend the remainder of their days with limbs gone, maimed blind, Our own sons and brothers might have come back from the Mexican border the same way and T and me, ask Callahan over there,” he sa:d, thank God from the bottom of my Already here. $15 to $28 { moment. { There Any price you name “SOME VALUES” THEKIND of SUITS $18 = 520 GET FOR Selections from the best fabrics that were put into Suits to sell at these prices—worsteds and chev- failoring that shows a most commendable detail throughout.

All men who have the power to project themselves prophetically into the future are dreamers. They dream dreams and they see visions and only after time has passed and the dreams are rea- lized' and the. visions become a verity does humanit hasten to pay rever- ence and respect to their memories. would never have been any progress in the world if it had not been for the dreamers of the world. One of the persistent perils of the present is that we shall fall to rec- ognize; the men who have the true vision. As we glance back over the ages we find many sorry chapters which describe the unhappy fate which too frequently falls to the lot of the reformer who has not been ablo to satisfy the people of his own age that he was their true servant and friends. History tells us that to Socrates they gave the hemlock, Graccens was killed with sticks and stones, the Maid of Orleans they burned at the stake, Robert Emmett they killed under color of law, Lin- coln was assassinated, and One, greatest and purest of all, they cruci- fied. Of course there are irrespon- sible individuals with vain imaginings who are of no service either to their contemporaries or to the future. But every now and then there arises in every generation some man who sees truly far beyond the age in which he lives. *“Christopher Columbus was dreamer, a visionary, and by many of his fellows was regarded as little short of a mad man And yet prob- ably he dreamed the greatest dream that any human ever dreamed and —wonderful to relate—it came to pass. When Columbus sailed across the uncharted seas. he sailed across the centuries as well. Waiting for the discoverer on the far rim of the world was a new land. which in pro- cess of time was destined to be the great hope of the world. Columbus and Columbla—what a name and what a nation. “At such a gathering as this we can pay our respects not only to the memory of a great man, but we can renew our faith in America and her institutions. America is a great and wonderful country America is going forward. We have a right to rejoice. America is prosperous. America is at wosMe merica Is at peace. It s back, a written in the on from triumph to triumph. What has been accomplished in this coun- try in the way of establishing a free government has not been accomplish- ed without the sacrifices of a multi- tude of patriots. The blood of free men through all history has sealed with its sacrifices the compact of lib- erty and America as it exists today is a complete vindication of the rights of man. Robert Burns said: “Libert a glorious feast.” We here in Ameri- ca are partakers of this feast. But, my friends, we must not forget that eternal vigllance is the price of hu- man liberty. “A democratic government 1is the most difficult in the world to operate successfully. Indeed a democracy is more than a government. It is a process of national self-education. We hear a great deal about efficiency nowadays. It would be perfectly easy to make America efficient. This could readily be accomplished if we were prepared to dismiss the congress, sup- press the newspapers, close up the channel of public instruction and put the control of the government in the hands of one strong man. If the boundless energies of 100,000,000 people could thus be directed to a single purpose and our people could be induced to refrain from revolu- tion, we would have the most effictent government in the world. But it would cease to be a democracy- It would cease to be the inspiring thing which takes hold of the imagination of men. The flag that represents so much to us by way of sacrifice and toil and service would lose its glory and its beauty if it could no longer float over free men with hearts so devoted to it that in periods of great national stress and peril they can- not dontemplate it without tears. There is something in the flag of a free country that is inspiring to all men who love humanity and believe in the capacity of men to continue the march of democratic progress. “There are wonderful things going on in the world today. We are liv- ing in the most stimulating and in- teresting period of history. By soms stroke of fate, which it is not our place now to analyze or question, practically the entire civilized world is being made a sacrifice to the failure of European diplomacy. Thus far we have kept clear of these entangle- ments. We must persist in so doing to the end. America is the only country of the world that is free from the scourge of war. We are in a po- sition when this black dream of war has passed to lift up the fallen hopes of humanity. America as the only great disentangled nation of the world is in a certain sense the trustee of the moral judgments of humanity. It is our mission as it has been our hope to have opportunity to bind up the -wounds of war and to recreate and vitalize the ties of fraternity that ought to unite all nations and ought to bind together the hearts of all human beings everywhere. This is the mission of our splendid and free must not in the con- fusion and perplexities of the moment ars that we shall 80 | v things that Business Hours, 8:30 to 6:00. Sat- urdays 8:30 to 9.
