  Patriotism        Gen. Teachers Meeting

                                         Saginaw .Oct.2.1915

                                          45 minutes

    For over a year now, since

  that fateful first of August,

  1914, when Germany declared

  that a state of war existed between

  herself and Russia, the world

  has lived under a never-lifting

  cloud. No thoughtful person

  is able to escape the

  profound depression which

  is renewed  every morning

  when he reads the daily

  press despatches from

  the seat of war. That the

  six most powerful and enlightened

  nations of Europe

  should lay aside their usual

  thoughts and their usual pursuits

  and devote their entire national

  energy and ability to the business

  of deceiving, tricking, killing

  and destroying their enemies
