THK AMERICAN PEOPLE
GREATEST OX EARTH
There are three great countries in
tke world, in size and numbers—
America, Russia and China. There
arv many great countries, in civiliza
tion and power—England, Germany,
France, America, Japan and the rest.
But there is only one which, with
ate, numbers, civilization and power,
combines also the vital quality of
unity, remarks a California exchange.
We have the most scattered and di
versified population in the world,
jet we are more alike than any other
people in the world. We all speak
the same language, wear the same
clothes and have the same manners,
customs and Ideals, In Central Eu-
rope, within a day’s walk, you can
pass through three different lan-
(sages, civilizations and forms of
government. Even in Russia the spo-
ken language of the people varies so
much every hundred or two miles,
that they cannot understand each
other. The common native of any
part of Russia is practically a foreign
erin any other part. And the native
of any province of China finds the
spoken language of any other part to
tally unintelligible. ' There can be
no real national sentiment among
such people. They cannot understand
each other, neither their languages,
their thoughts nor their sentiments.
The one most remarkable fact
about our country is its exact reversal
e! ail taesy conditions. Here the pe
culiarities of dialect and pronuncia
tion are so slight that It takes an ex-
p°rt to tell from his speech from what
part of the country a man comes.
Wbatev* is fashion in New York in
tlotres is fashion in New Orleans,
San Francisco, Minneapolis and Port-
lind. We have a uniform education

cial customs, uniform personal and
public s andards, common
ideals,
principles and subjects of conversa
tion. W. are thereby the one great
