Dr. Ftank Crane Says—
THE RIGHT KIND OF PATRIOTISM
A. patriotic deed is one which re
flects honojr and plory upon one's
country.
We recognize General Grant, the
Duke of Wellington and Napoleon as
patriots because they led armed forc
es of their respective countries.
The exploits of Colonel Lindbergh,
together with that of Chamberlin and
Levine, have glorified the United
States. But this glory was not offset
by any rancor incurred by other coun
tries. France'and Germany wer^ just
as enthusiastic in acclaiming the ex
ploits of our fliers as we were. This is
the right kind of partiotism and pa
triotic action, for it is one which exalts
one's native country and af the same
time does not awaken animosity in
other peoples.
Undoubtedly Thomas Edison has
glorified his own country quite as
much as General. Grant. On a vote tak
en iin France recently the most popu
lar Frenchman was found to be not
Napoleon, but Louis Pasteur.
So Darwin and Jenner have done
more to exalt the prestige of England
than Drake ah(i’Wellington .
Koch and Goethe have spread the
fame of Germany far more than Von
M61tke and Ludenburg, and Marconi
and Bellanca have made Italy famous
and are entitled to the gratitude of
their country quite as much as Gari
baldi. N
Tolstoy has done more to spread the
renown of Russia than all her war
riors.
This throws a welcome light upon
true patriotism which is found in that

and dollars with which to build steel
seats of 5000 seating capacity and

condition. These improvements, he
stated, are absolutely essential to
bring home games here and he asked
