government is an end to itself. The 
foolish philosophy and foolish theo- 
logy of the Germans for the past 25 
years resulted in this war we are 
fighting today. We are in a war to 
preserve the freedom of all mankind 
as well as ourselves. It has aptly been 
said that this is a war to make the 
world safe for democracy.” 
Mr. Wells classified three types of 
Americans in evidence today; an in- 
different type, the hysterical kind and 
the fellow who cannot get his “mind 
and spine to synchronize.” 
He told of the scenes at the vari- 
ous college commencements through- 
out the country, of the men leaving 
college to serve in the army or navy 
and declared his belief that the old 
pioneer American spirit was still alive. 
He concluded by telling the story of 
“The Man Without a Country,” and 
ended with the charge of Philip No- 
lan to the young midshipman. 
Mrs. Reed and the committee from

cream was served.

THE NEW. STYLE PATS 
Listen, my children, and you shall hear 
Of a patriot’s work in this present 
year. 
He didn’t ride through the roads at 
night 
To rouse the neighbors to arm and 
fight, 
But he went to work with a spade and 
hoe , 
And he made ten bushels of ’taters 
grow, 
He mopped the sweat from his beady 
brow 
As he trudged behind his hand-power 
plow ; 
His hands grew tough and his feet 
got sore 
As he turned the stubborn furrows 
’ 
o’er, 
And his neighbors laughed and they 
called him slow,— 
But he made his ten bushels of ’taters 
grow. 
Oh, cheer the boy with the sword and 
gun, 
Who has fought and bled, when the 
war is done, 
And cheer the generals and majors, 
too, 
And the sailors bold on the ocean 
blue ; 
But cheer this man and his spade and 
hoe, 
For he made ten bushels of ’taters 
grow.
