tection, Woman Writer
Declares.
By LET.Y MOORE MEYER.
The pageant, "Patriotic Historic
America," to be given during the Ak
Sar-Ben carnival in October under
the direction of John I.ee Webster,
whose vast knowledge of the subject
most ably fits him for the task,.is
a much-needed lesson for those of
all ages. Mr. Webute^ announces
'hat its aim is, as Lincoln, said, to
"rededteate ourselves” to the cause
and to tho country for which our
forefathers suffered and died. It
should arouse an appreciation of the
magnificent opportunities and advan
tages their work has given us, instead
of a disposition to see only the few
minor faults which some people wre
iirone to emphasize. Tho need for
history study i 11 the schools has al
ways been recognized, but the world
now demands things on a vaster
scale.
If each generation had to learn
■ verything for itself, the world would
never have gotten beyond barbarism.
The more we learn of what has gone
before, of the experiments, mistakes,
failures and • successes, the better
equipped are we to judge wisely and
act successfully in bringing forth
happy conditions to ourselves, our
nation and the world. Most of the
thinkers of country believe there
is too much bolshevist tendency
among us. With the upheaval in the
rest of the world, it would be a mira
cle if we were not badly tainted with
lawlessness, and it is only by holding
steadfastly and constantly "rededicat
ing ourselves” to the foundation prin
ciples of Americanism, that we can
protect ourselves from pollution ami
lie a beacon light to other countries.
Factions Not Considered.
Mr. Webster has pointed out that
the founders of our government were
great and their work enduring be
cause they considered the good of all,
favoring no faction and no locality,
and that the names of those who op
posed thpm by trying to further per
sonal interests, have been buried in
oblivion.
Charles Fillmore, founder and head
of the Unity Society of Christianity
in Kansas City, probably the strong
est und most successful expounders
of universal kindliness, has started
the big movement for the use of the
golden rule in business which is
sweeping the country, teaching and
proving that it makes vastly more
money for everybody. lie says: "If I
had been writing the Declaration of
Independence, I think that I would
have written It Just as it is.” He also
quotes this:
Favor Golden Rule.
“The Philadelphia Chamber of Com
merce appointed an Industrial rela
tions committee to look Into the ques
tion of Industrial unrest, determine
what caused it and suggest a remedy.
The committee came to the conclu
sion that basically it was caused by
a too prevalent spirit of greediness
ajid suspicion- The remedy sug
gested by the commute, enthusiastic
ally endorsed by the Philadelphia
Chamber of Commerce, was the recog
nition of the Golden Rule in Its best
and highest sense.
“Attention was directed to the fact
that the success of our forefathers
in establishing a republic in this
country'Was duo to the fact that they
were inspired hv a spirit of service
and unselfishness and looked to Di
vine providence f<>r inspiration and
leadership. United States Senator
George Wharton Pepper, In speaking
lo the group of 850 business men of
Philadelphia, who later adopted what
is known as the Golden Rule pledge,
stated that labor and capital could not
be reconciled by any of the mechanl
■ al methods which trusted in force,
but that ‘wo must go back to God.’
The pledge was adopted by the cham
ber, is r eceiving endorsement by simi
lar bodies and Is being enthusiastically
promoted by Philadelphia men.”
The constitutional convention, meet
ing in the same city, seemed doomed
to failure until Franklin said, "Unless {
the Lord build the house, they labor
In vain that build It,” and caused
each session to be opened with prayer.
United States Senator Medill McCor
mick of Illinois, In a recent article In
the Saturday Evening Post, on his
Investigations In Europe, said that
there is nothing that can save Europe
and the world from destruction but a
return to the principles of Jesus
Christ.
Obviously Nebraska must soon
choose between spending money for
art, music and education, or for many
more penal institutions and increased
police protection. A few spectacular
man hunts or the maintenance and
guarding of several life-termers sure
ly cost as much as all of this pageant.
