That each time that our democracy has been threatened, within or without, it has been the ill- advised action that comes from feeling, emotions, predominating thought—within ourselves or our enemies. That the only threatening cloud now on the horizon of our national life, small as it may be, is from a source that precludes all factors of reason. E kee foundation of all our democrs system. Our Colonial forefathers learned order and sys- tem from the discussion of their social, business and political affairs long before the American revo- lution—they pi it in town meetings. They learned to make compromises. They learned that progress, reform, does not come as a will or ideal of one—that the might of one or of a few does not make the right of all. Our Colonial forefathers carried the spirit of quiet, orderly discussi to the framing of the Declaration of Independence, later to that very quiet, orderly and systematic document, the con- stitution of the United States; and after the revo- lution this habit of quiet, orderly discussion proved the training for self-government, one generation unto another, in the national life which has fol- lowed. ka ey is order and HE lesson from this, for all of us of this gen- eration, and particularly young men and women, is that we should pursue the practice of quiet, orderly discussion as individuals—the prac- tice that has been found workable in the upbuild- ing of this nation, that we may become strong as individuals and stronger as a nation. That every young man and woman should make the joining and participating in an organization a are never proof of the soundness of belief. Learn that those who argue with the most feeling and temper have their own vanity at heart rather than the good of a cause. That while people are often carried away on a wave of emotional oratory, yet it is never of perma- nent conviction, That while an individual may be right as against an organization, that even a whole people may be wrong at times, yet it is only the process by which they finally get right. Learn that permanent reforms come by slow and orderly courses, that they are disturbed and retarded by feelings and force; that they come, one process on another, quietly, unnoticed, naturally, like the changing seasons of the year —winter into spring, into fall. spring into summer, summer JAPANESE HURT IN SMASHUP| FOREIGN TRADE MEN MEET Hondo Tooburo, Japanese, of 617) Seattle will be represented at the Washington st., was taken to the city national foreign council hospital with a broken leg shortly | which will be held in Chicago from April 24 to 26.
