WILSON'S REPLY
Replying to tho King's address at
the Buckingham Palace banquet Pres
ident Wilson said:
"I am deeply complimented by the
gracious words . which you have
uttered. The welcome which you
have given me and Mrs, Wilson has
been so warm, so natural, so evident
ly from the heart, that we have been
more than pleased. We have been
touched by it, and I believe that I
correctly Interpret that welcome as
embodying not only your own gen
erous spirit toward us personally but
also expressing for yourself and the
great nation over which you preside
that same feeling for my people, for
the people of the United States.
"For you and I, sir I temporar
ily embody the spirit of two great
nations, and whatever strength I have
and whatever authority, I possess it
only so long and so far as I express
the spirit and purpose of tho Amer
ican people.
"Every influence that the American
people have over the affairs of tho
world is measured by their sympathy
with the aspirations of freemen
everywhere.
"America does love freedom, and I
believe she love3 freedom unselfishly.
But if she does not she will not and
cannot help the influence to which
she justly aspires.
"I have had the privilege, sir, of
conferring with the leaders of your
own government and with the spokes
men of the governments of France
and of Italy, and I am glad to say
that I have the same conception that
thev have of the significance and
scope of the duty on which wo have
met.
"We have used great words all
of us have used -the great words
'right' and 'justice' and now we
are to prove whether or not we
understand these words and how they
are to be applied to tho particular
settlements which must conclude this
war.
"And we must not only-understand
them, but we must have the courage
to act unon our understanding.
"Yet. after I have uttered the word
'courasre.' it comes into my mind that
It would take more courage to resist
the great moral tide now running in
tTiA world than to yield to it than
to obey it.
"There is a great tide running in
the hearts of men. The hearts of men
have never beaten so singularly in
iinisnn before. Men. have never be-
fnfn boon an rrmRcl0U8 Of their
brotherhood. Men have never before

was between right and justice in one
latitude and in another, under one

. Creating an Estate
- All aro striving to create n estate. When
death comes, if there is no Insurance, a forced'
sale of the property often caus.es a large loss,
whereas, the proceeds from a life insurance
policy will furnish ready money for the im
mediate needs -and the executors of the estate
can have time to dispose of' tho property to tho
best advantage.
The cash value of a man's Ufe to his family,
if he earns but $1,000 a year, at age thirty-five
is over $14,000. -No man would go without fire
Insurance on that amount of property and yet
if he carries' no life insurance, he is forcing his
family to carry a risk for this amount unpro
tected. Why not transfer this risk from tho
family to
