Robert P. Butler, of Hartford, Delivered Stirring Patri- otic Address—Past Exalted Ruler Thomas F. Craney — proves that. Nations, ves, .even de- mocracies, commit without punishment crimes that the individual could not, or woulg not commit. Is it not true, therefore, that only as the moral ideal ©of the individual rises to a higher level, does the moral practice of the nation become perfect? You cammot drag man’s moral ideal to higher lev- . it must grow from within. And in our form of democracy, where the people create the government of, for and by themselves, they impose upon that government the indiyidual stan- dard of morality. Thus i national moral ideal, like ~the individual, a growth from within; and that govern- ment which is not responsive to the moral ideals of its people will be de- stroyed by the people Who create it. Democracy is doubly precious to us who dwell in Connecticut, for here. on the banks of the Comneeticut river, were uttered the words which first outiined for mankind this modern de- mocracy. It was Thomas Hooker, on May 31, 1635, who eaid. “The founda- tlon of authority is laid in the free consent of the pcople.” Upon this doc- trine and the sermon which clothed it was framed the general orders, the first written constitution of demovracy known to the world's history. The constitution of the United States, “the greatest written document ever penned by the hand of man,” grew from that utterance. Ahe Question of Autecracy. But how abowt autocracy? There the foundation of authority s laid in the doctrine of “divine right of Kings,” fourided upon the dogma that “might makes right.” The autocracy is not created by the people and is not re- sponsible to them. It is the creation of a small dynastic group of over- lords who set up their over-lordship and frame the national morality to own ends. That national morai- ¥, ready-made, they superimpose upon the people whom they rule. Here is no room for growth from within the individuas! Here there can be ne growth, hecause the limitation of moral 'development s circumseribed from without. And, this heing so, whét becomee, then, of the great process of evolution by means of individual moral perfection which is to carry mankind slowly on to a higher plane of civiliza- tion? Is it possible that the man- made and man-Hmited morality of au- tocracy can supplant the great scheme of evolution laid out by the Creator of all thing=? Jubt so soon as individua moral freedom is limited in its growth, by whatever power. just 50 soon does vational moral devclopment cease and disintegration begin - Ingrowing - National Morality. Is that not the trouble with the German people today? Are they noi suffering from ingrowing national morality? Can you imagine a democ- racy that would have permitted -its government to rape and murder Dai- gium? Or Serbia? What peopie who hold for the nation the same -moral ideal as for the individual would have WILLIAM R. STEVENS, permitted its rules to commit such an unspeakable crime? And “the worlk must be made safe for democracy. That is why democracy and autocracy are at death grips! That s why we must win this war. Though England fail, and France faf, and.Russia fail, and Italy fail, still must we fight. That flag is the beacon of hope for the democracy of the world, and that light must not g0 out on the western hemi- sphere, whatever hetide the peoples of Europe! And this, my friends, means sacri- fice. Tt means a sacrifice all the great- We have basked in a fool's paradise, thinking that in our “splendid isola- n” we could not be reached by war. Isolated? We are not isolated! One hundred years ago, it is true, the At- jantic ocean was our greatest mafe- guard. We were thirt vs from our nearest enemy. Today we are only four days away, and tomorrow—why, tomorrow we shall be taking dinner in New York one day and in Paris or Lordon or Berlin the next. Isolated? There i& no isolation! You read in your papers this evening all that took place in Burope and Asia this morn- ing. And tomorrow morring we shall know what is beinz said and done this very minute in the rest of the world, even in the isiands of the seas. I.tell vou, my friends, we stand shoulder to shoulder, vea, heart to heart, with all the other pations of the world. Thers i nor time nor space for science has annihilated them hotl and we are plunged without warning into the = maclstrom of the world's business. And as we prove oursslves fit or unfit for the burden shall we determine whether our country ahall Hve or die. Why So Unready? Why ars we ‘so_unready? Because we have been supremeiy seifish! Does that sound hrutal? Well, it is brutally true. We have assumed that becese this is a nation where every man is equal we have.but to claim our right te equality. And we kave thought that fhis meant equality of rights and priv- ileges, and equality of opportunity. Tt does! ' But there iz another equality, greater and more precious to the life of our country than either of tnese, and that is the cquality of responsi bility! Have we learned that? Have we taught it to our children? To the ignorant and eager strangers who have come to our shores? God help us. we have not. We have forgotten .the best, but now we are cailed face to face with it. Equality of rights and priv- ileges—yes! Equality of oppertunity— ves! But equalky of responsibility too! This is the very kevstome of the arch! These three are the holy trinity of our liberty! Carlyle wrote, “Toward an. eternal center of right and justice is all con- fusion tending. and by laws old as the world, nay, old as the Maker's’ firat plan of the world, it has to arrive there.” — Hope for Continued Freedom.

About 50 members of Division 54 of e Use Cocoanut Oil For Washing Hair If you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash it with Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the halr brittle, and is very harmful. Just plain mulsified cocoanut oil (which is pure and en- tirely greaseless), is much better than the most expensive soap or anything else you can use for shampooing, as this can't possibly injure the hafr.
