Keep In mind the type of man he Is, and read the following Temarkable and inspiring article from bis pen on the hope of the world's future: "Surely the future looks black enough, yet it holds a hope, a single hope. One, and one power only, can arrest the descent and save us. That Is the Christian religion. "Democracy Is but a side issue.! The paramount Issue, underlying the Issue of democracy, Is the religion of Christ and Him crucified. It Is now summer and fall months and build new ones If necessary. The American people owe an at tentive ear to Mr. Roosevelt's coun sel, for its sagacity and rugged pa triotism have been proved beyond a doubt. When other eyes were cloud ed, his vision was clear. When other hearts were timid, his her.rt was strong. When other minds were be fuddled, his mind waa wise.
