PRESIDENT WILSON TALKS ABOUT
WAR AND WARRIORS.
(Tho tallowing has been taken from a Memorial day address by Present Wilson. There arc lp It llnva
of esiwclal Rlgnttlcanco and valuable ndilco:)
nv wooimow wn-sox.
1 will not deny myself tho privilege of Joining with you In an cxprowlon of the gratitude and admiration
for the wen who perished tar thesaVc of the union. They do not need 6ur praise. Thoy do not need that our
admiration shbulit sustain them. Thcro Is no Immortality that Is safer than Jhclrs.
A nccutlar prlvllcgo camo to tho men who fought for tho union. There Is no other civil war In 1 1 iUlor .
tho stlncs or which were removed before tho men who did thb fighting passed from tho stnKo of life. So
that wo owe thoso men something more than a legal re-eslahllshnient of tho union; for (hoy not only ro
united stales but they reunited tho spirits of men.
That Is their unlquo achievement, unexampled anywhere clso tn tho nnnnls of mankind, that the vor
men whom they overcame In battle Join In pralso and gratitude that tho union vas saed. There la some
thing peculiarly beautiful and peculiarly touching about that. Whenever a man who Is still tn tag to de
vote himself to tho scrvlco of tho nation comes Into a presence llko this, or Inot a place like this, his spirit
must be peculiarly moved. A mandate Is laid upon htm which scorns to speak from tho very graves them
selves. Those, who eorve this nation, whether tn peace or In war, should servo tho nation without thought
f thl can'never speak In pralso of war. Hut thcro Is this peculiar distinction belonging to tho soldier, that
ho troos into ariVnterprlso out of which he himself cannot got nnthtng at all. He Is giving everything that
ho hath even his life. In order that others may live, not In order that ho himself may obtain gain and pros
ncrltr 'And Just so soon as tho tasks of peace arc performed tn tho same spirit of self-sacrifice and devo
tlon, peace societies will not bo necessary. Tho very organisation of society will bo a guarantee of peace.
Therefore this peculiar thing comes about, that we can stand hero and pralso tho memory of these sol
dlcrs in tho interest of peace. Thoy wt us the example of self-sacrifice which If followed In peace v,llt make
It unnecessary that men should follow war any more.
Wo admire physical courage, hut wo admire above all things clso. moral courage. I belluvo that sol
dlcra will bear me out In saying that both como In tlmo of battle. M take It moral courage comes In goliu
Into tho battle, and tho physical couraRo In staying In.
And there are battles which are Just as hard to ro Into and Just as hard to stay In as the battle or arms,
and If the man will but stay and think never of himself, there will come a tlmo of gratfnl recollection when
men will sneak of him only with admiration but with that which goes decpor. with affection and with rev-
"""so that this flag calls upon us dally for scrvlco and tho more quiet and solf-drnylng Wo wnlco tho
creator tho glory of tho flag. Wo are dedicated to freedom, and that freedom means tho fremlom of the
human spirit. AH free spirits ought to conKrecato on an occasion llko this to do homage to the greatness
of America as Illustrated by the greatness of her sons.
