WILSON HAS NO FORMAL AI
DRESS.
President Wilson had no form:
address prepared for the cereinonii
and his reply was delivered wit
slow impressiveness. His voice wi
low and fervent and it is face w;
grave.
"Mr. Secretary," he said, "I kno
that the leelings which character!;
all who stand about me are not foe
ings that can he expressed in el
quence or in oratory. For my o\\
part. I have a mixture of feeling.
"The feeling that is uppermost
one of profound grief, that the;
lads should have had to go to the
death. But yet I feel a profour
pride and envy that they should ha'
/ been permitted to do their duty i
nobly.
"Their duty is not an uncomnn
thing. Men are perrorming it in tl
ordinary walks of life, but what giw
these men peculiar distinction is th
they did not give their lives f<
themselves, but gave their lives f<
us, because we as a nation calh
upon them.
"Are you sorry for the lads? A
you sorry for the way they will I

you will join an immortal compan
and while there goes out of o
hearts an affectionate sympathy f
them, we know why we don't
away from this occasion with o
hearts cast down, but with con
dence that all will be worked out.
"We have gone down to Mexico
serve mankind If we can And t
way. We don't want to flght t
Mexicans, we want to serve them.
"A war of aggression is not a thli
in which It is proud to die, but a w
of service is a war tn which it is
proud thing to die."
The President referred then to t
cosmopolitian personnel of the v
tims. "I listened to the list," he a
ded, "with profound feeling, becau

or Hebrews when they went to Ve

"War is only a sort of drama

just as hard to do your duty wh

they wound your heart.
"As I think of these spirits that

have shown us the way."
