WILSON REVIEWS 50 YEAl PEACE, UNION, VIGOR AND L1K Tell* the Veteran* at Gettysbu What the Half Century Han Taught. Gettysburg, July 5.?The tra bearing President Wilson arrived the station in the town of Gettysbu at 11:02 o'clock yesterday. T President was escorted to an aul mobile and accompanied by Gov< nor Tener, passed through the toi to the Emmlttsburg road and th proceeded over that thoroughfare the camp. i ne I'resiueni spoke to a crowd < tlmated at 10,000. Thousands veterans were in their uniforms gray or blue, but many in the croi were Pennsylvantans from Gett: burg and nearby towns. The Pre dent's speech was short and he w frequently interrupted by chee President Wilson left by special trs Bhortly before boon for the north. The President said: Friends and Fellow Citizens: need not tell you what the battle Gettysburg meant. These galla men iu blue and gray sit all abo us here. Many of them met here \i on this ground in grim and deac struggle. Upon these famous flel and hillsides their comrades dl about them. In their presence were an impertinence to discoui upon how the battle wont, how ended, what it signified! But years have gone by since then, and crave the privilege of speaking you for a few minutes of what the 60 years have meant. WHAT OF 60 YEARS? What have they meant? Th have meant peace and union a vigor, and the maturity and might a eront njltinn Hniv whnlnsnmn n healing the peace tiae been! have found one another argaln brothers and combrades In arn enemies no longer, generous frlen rather, our battles long past, t quarrel forgotten?except that ' shall not forget the splendid valoi the manly devotion of the men th arrayed against one another, n< grasping hands and smiling into ea other's eyes. How complete t union has become and how dear all of us, how unquestioned, h< benign and majestic, as state aft state has been added to this o great family of free men! How har some the vigor, the maturity, t might of the great nation we lc with undivided hearts; how full large and confident promise thnt life will be wrought out that w crown its srength with gracious ji tlce and with a happy welfare ti will touch all alike with deep cc tentment! We are debtors to th( 60 crowded years; they have ma us heire to a mighty heritage. But do we deem the nation co nlotP n nH flnlahnH ? 1 men crowding here to this fame field have set us a great example devotion and utter sacrifice. Tfc were willing to die that the pco] might livo. Rut their task is doi Their day is turned into evenii They look to us to perfect what tl established. Their work is hand on to us, to be done in another w but not in another spirit. Our d is not over; it is upon us in full ti< AMERICA UNAFRAID. Have affairs paused? Does i nation stand sfjll? Is what the years have wrought since thos.j di of battle finished, rounded out, a completed? Here Is a great poop great with every force that has ei beaten in the lifeblood of inankii And it is secure. There is no c within its borders, there is no pov among the nations of the earth, make it afraid. But has it squared itself with its own gr< standards set up at its birth, wfc n iunue uiai nrsi nonie, naive app to the moral judgment of manki to take notice that a government li now at last been established whl was to serve men, not masters? is secure in everythnig except I satisfaction that its life is right, i Justed to the uttermost to the stai ards of righteousness and human! The days of sacrifice and cleans! are not closed. We have han things to do than were done in 1 heroic days of war, because hare to see clearly, requiring more visi< more clean balance of Judgment, more candid searching of the v< springs of right. Look around you upon the field Gettysburg! Picture the array, 1 fierce heat and agony of battle, c umn hurled against column, batt< bellowing to battery! Valour? Y( Greater no man shall see in w and self-sacrifice, and loss to the termost; the high recklessness of i lilted devotion which does not coi the cost. We are made by th< tragic, epic things to know what costs to make a nation?the hlc and sacrifice of multitudes of i known men lifted to a great stati In the view of all generations knowing no limit to their manly w Ingness to serve. In aries tl marshaled from the ranks of fi men you will see, as it were, a nat.1 embattled, the leaders and the L and may know. If yon will, h little except in form its action diff< in days of peace from its action days of war. ACTION NEVER CEASES. May we break camp now and at ease? Are the forcea that flj for the nation dispersed, disband gone to their homes forgetful of < common cause? Are our forcea <1 organized, without constituted lei era and the might of men conseio ly united because we contend, 1 with armies, but with principalit and powers and wickedness in h! places Are we content to lie sti Does our union mean sympathy, t peace contentment, our sigor ri) action, our maturity self-romp hension and a clear confidence choosing what we shall do? V fitted us for action, and action ne< ceases. I have been chosen the leader 2 the nation. I cannot justify the r choice by any qualities of my own, I but so it has come about, and here I I stand. Whom do I command? The ghostly hosts who fought upon these (j battlefields long ago and are gone? irK These gallant gentlemen stricken in years, whose fighting days are over, ? their glory won? What are the or- P ders for them, and who rallies them? u jn 1 have in my mind another host, w , whom these set free of civil strife in tl order that they might work out in .y days of peace and settled order the o ,() life of a great nation. That host is 11 Jr" the people themselves, the great and n vn the small, without class or differen ence of kind or race or origin; and h ,0 undivided in interest, if we have but tl the vision to guide and direct them r< 1R and order their lives aright in what 1* f we do. Our constitutions are their urtioloc nf 1 ' 0j ?/. V....U1.UMH, i uc uruers ?? V{j of the day are the laws upon our it statute books. What we strive for r< 8j~ Is their freedom, their right to lift it as themselves from day to day and berR hold the things they have hoped for. H tjn and so make way for still better days ai t for those whom they love who are to j come after them. The recruits are b; j the little children crowding in. The ii j quartermaster's stores are In the P nt mines and forests and fields, in the sl shops and factories.

Recently discussing our needs with ne of the best informed and most ractical of our citizens he summed p the situation by saying: "What e need is education; education in le home; mothers who will bring up leir children in the right way. Once ur people become educated much of le unrest and all of the prejudice ow apparent will be eliminated." In those two sentences this man ad sounded the keynote. Following lis conversation this gentleman di :ticu urn unonuon to two articles i the current issue of The Progres:ve Farmer which tell the story of tlucation in such an Interesting tanner that we cannot refrain from producing one in whole and quotig from the other in part. The first tiows South Carolina's standing at le foot of the educational ladder, nd is as follows: A graphic llustration of Southern ackwardness in education is given 1 the new Russell Sage bulletin on ublic school systems of the various tates. This diagram shows the verage amount of school funds exended for each child of school age, nd brings or.t the disgraceful fact tat the Southern states are not even pending half as much as the states f the North and West. The exact ink of each state judged by this andard, together with the average xpenditure per child (ranging from 31 in the state of Washington to 3 in the state of South Carolina) is lustrated by the following: 1. Washington $32 2. California 27 3. New York 25 i. MassacnupettP 25 6. Nevada 2 5 6. Montana 24 7?. Colorado 2 4 8. Illinois 23 9. Ohio 2 2 0. Connecticut 22 1. New Jersey 22 2 North Dakota 21 3.

It is u?- , nounced that Miss Hessie Stalkey, who lives near Berryvllle, Clarke * county, Virgina. leads all the 25,- e 000 Southern girls who belong to the "1 canning clubs in the yields for 1912. * Miss Stalkey raised no less than 5,938 pounds of tomatoes on her tenth of an acre. This is nearly three tons, and smashes the records of the ^ production of the fruit or vegetable, a or whatever it may be . Miss Ella G. Agnew of Burkesville, j, who is at the head of the girls' canning club work in Virginia, heard that ^ the Clarke county member had led all the rest. She went to Washington and inquired, and there the state- . ment was confirmed. Naturally, Miss j Agnew is pleased that one of her own girls has made such an achieve ment.

The First Curtain. I Pearson's Weekly. i I A window Is an aperture in an J ' otherwise unbroken wall. It?the 1 said aperture?was Invented for at least two reasons, one to provide air and the other to enable the light to ' penetrate the cell, thus saving can- ] dies, coal oil, gas or electrlcty, as the ' ease may be. No hotel proprietor J ever invented the window. No record exists of the age or origin of the 1 window, but common sense teaches 1 j use that some caveman started the 1 ' custom of windowing habitations by ' poking a hole through the clay wall i of his resdence and finding the recultant light and air good to see and * I to feel. Whereupon Mrs. Cave- " dweller sniffer contemptuously and fastened the branch of a fig tree over * ' the newly invented window in such a way as to keep out as much light , as possible.
