THE PRESIDENT
Mr. Wilson Delivers Address at
Gettysburg Celebration.
DRAWS LESSON FROM BATTLE
Declares Great Army of

Must Fight Peacefully
Perfect the Nation
AH Love.-
to
Gettysburg, Pa., July 4. National
day In the semi-centennial celebration
of the Battle of Gettysburg was made
especially notable by an address de
livered by President Woodrow Wilson.
In his audience were many thousands
of the veterans who fought in the
great battle, as well as a great throng
of other visitors. '
The president's address follows:
Friends and Fellow Citizens: I need
cot tell you what the battle of Gettys
burg meant. These gallant ,men in
blue and gray sit all about us here.
Many of them met here upon this
ground in grim and deadly struggle.
Upon these famous fields and hillsides
their comrades died about them. In
their presence it were, an impertinence
to discourse upon how the battle went,
how it ended, what it signified! But
50 years have gone by since then and
I crave the privilege of speaking to
you for a few minutes of what those
50 years have meant.
What have they meant? They have
meant peace and union and vigor, and
the maturity and might of a great na
tion. How wholesome and healing the
peace has been! We have found' one
another again as" brothers and. com
rades in arms, enemies no longer, gen
erous friends rather, our battles long
past, the quarrel forgotten except
that we shall not forget the splendid
valor, the manly devotion of the. men
then arrayed against one anothervnow
grasping hands and smiling into each
other's eyes. How complete the union
has become and how dear to all of us,
how unquestioned, how benign and
tnajeBtic, as state after state has been
added to this great family of free
men! How handsome the vigor, the
maturity, the might of the great na
tion we love with undivided hearts;
how full of large and confident prom
lee that a life will be wrought out
that will crown Its strength with gra
cious Justice and a happy welfare that
will touch all' alike with deep content
ment! We are debtors to those 50
crowded years; they have made us
heirs to a mighty heritage.
Nation Not Finished.
But do we deem the nation com
plete and finished? ' These venerable
men crowding here to this famous
field have set us a great example ot
devotion and utter sacrifice. They
were willing to die that the people
might live., But their task is ' done.
Their day is turned into evening. They
look to us to perfect what they estab
lished. Their work is handed en to
as, to be done in another way bat not
In another spiriL Our day is not over;
it is upon, us in full tide. ... -
Have affairs paused? . Does . the
nation stand still? Is it what the 50
years have wrought since those days
of battle finished, rounded out, and
completed? Here is a great people,
great with every force that has ever
beaten in the life blood of mankind.
And it is secure. . There Is no one
within., its borders, there Is ' no
power among the nations of the earth.
to tnake it afraid. But has it? yet

standards set up at its birth, when it
made that first noble, naive appeal to
Hie .moral judgment of ' mankind ' to

was to serve "men, not masters? It Is
secure in everything except the satis
faction that its life Ik right, adjusted
to the uttermost to the standards of
righteousness and humanity. The
days of sacrifice ah4: cleansing are

clearly, requiring
calm balance of
more vision, more
judgment, a more
candid searching of the very springs
of right. " ,
Tribute to Their Valor.
Look around you upon the field of
Gettysburg! Picture the array, the
fierce heats and agony of battle, column-hurled
against column, battery
bellowing to 'battery! Valor? -Yes!
Greater no .man shall see in war ; and
self-sacrifice, and . loss to the utter
most; th high recklessness of exalt
ed devotion which does not count the
cost. We are made by these tragic,
epic things to know what It costs to
make a nation the blood and sacri
fice of multitudes of unknown men
lifted to a great stature In the view
of all generations by knowing no limit
to" their manly willingness to serve.
In armies thus marshaled from the
ranks of free men you will see, as it
were, a nation embattled," the leaders
and the led, and may know, if you
will, how. little except in form its
action dillera in days of peace from
Its action' in days of war.
May we break camp now and be at
ease? . Are the forces that fight for the
Nation dispersed, disbanded, gone to
their homes forgetful of the common
cause? Are our forces disorganized,
without constituted leaders and the
might of men' consciously united be
cause we contend, not with armies, but
with principalities and powers and
wickedness In high places. Are we
content to lie still? Does pur union
mean sympathy, our peace content
ment, our vigor right action, our ma-turitj-
self-comprehension and a clear
confidence in choosing what we shall
do? War fitted us for action, and ac
tion never 'ceases.
. Our Laws the Orders of the Day.
I have been chosen the leader of
the Nation. I cannot justify the choice
by any qualities of my own, but so it
has come about, and here I stand.
Whom do I command? The ghostly
hosts who fought upon these battle
fields long ago and are gone? These
gallant gentlemen stricken in years
whose fighting days are over, their
glory won? What are the orders for
them, who rallies them? I have in my J
mind another host, whom these set
free of civil strife in order that they
might work out in days of peace and
settled order the life of a great nar
tlon. That host is the people - them
selves, the great and the small, with
out class or difference of kind or
race or origin; and undivided In inter
est, if we have but the vision to guide
and .direct them and order their lives
aright in what we do. . Our constitu
tions" are. their articles of enlistment.
The orders of the., day are the laws
upon our statute books. What ' we
strive for Is their freedom, their right
to lift themselves from day to day and
behold the things they have hoped
for, and so make way for stlll-better
days for those whom they : love who
are to come after them. The recruits
are the little: children crowding in.
The quartermaster's stores are in the
mines and forests and fields, in . the
shops and factories. Every day some
thing nrast fee done to push the cam
paign forward; and it must be .done
by plan sad with an eye to some great
destiny.
How shall we hold such thoughts in
our hearts and not be - moved? I
would not have you live even today
wholly in the past, but would . wish to
stand withyou in . the",, light that
streams .upon as now out : of that
great day gone by. Here 1st the na
tion God has builded byrour hands.
What shall we do with it? Who stands
ready to act again and always lnthe
spirit-of; this day. of reunion and, hope
and patriotic fervor? The 'day of our
countryVlife has but broadened into
morning. Do not put . uniforms by.i
Put the; harness of the present on."
Lift your eyes to the great tracts of
life yet to be conquered in the inter
eat of righteous peace, of that; pros
perity which lies in a people's hearts
and outlasts all wars and errors . of
men Come, let us be comrades aitd
soldiers yet to serve our fellow men
in : quiet ; counsel, where the blare of
trumpets is neither heard nor heeded
and where the things are done whith
make blessed the nations of the world

Q '- 1.
Quite Possible to Have Good Things
. to Eat and Yet Reduce Work to ;
'-: , a Minimum How She
Does It. ; -
Sister and I always get the Sunday
night's supper so that mother . can
have ajreBt from the household cares,1
writes a correspondent of the Boston
Herald. We haye concocted some,
rather good things to eat, and I am go
ing to tell you about them, because
the Sunday night's supper is always
a bothersome meal. One of the things
we have often is cheese sandwiches,
hot. ,. . -- ' .
- They are made .'..of .brown bread
which has been cut yery thin ; and
spread with a paste which has .been
made by rubbing six table'spoonfuls 6f
freshly grated cheese with two table
spoonfuls of butter. This is then
sprinkled with salt and paprika , and
the two sides of the sandwich firmly
pressed together and the whole fried
in hot butter.- Just as soon as it-is
light brown in color it is taken from
the fire. Sister has a cheese and nut
sandwich "which nearly- everybody
likes, and she serves this, too, for af
ternoon teas sometimes.
Chicken and " nut sandwiches are
good, too. Any chicken which is left
over is chopped very fine and almonds
and English walnuts are chopped fine
and added to the chicken in about
the proportion of 'a cupful of chicken
to a quarter of a cupful of nuts. This
is then softened with cream, so that
it will spread easily on bread. " It is
then seasoned with salt and paprika.
You can use either white or brown
bread, whichever you like best.
We have a pretty way of serving
eggs, too, by making a hollow in a
slice of buttered toast. Into this put
an egg sprinkled with grated cheese;,
pour a little cream over it and set
in the oven to bake or just long
enough for the egg to set. It is quite
delicious, and a change from the ordi
nary way of serving eggs.
The other day at an afternoon tea
we had the most delicious chocolate
sandwiches. Powdered . chocolate is
mixed with sugar, either boiling water
or milk, and a little vanilla,- and
stirred over the fire until i.t is per
fectly smooth and thick. Then it is
taken off the stove to cool, and before
it is quite cool it is spread between
either thicknesses of bread or crack
ers. Really, you ought to try it some
times; it is delicious.
Baked Milk Toast.
Trim the crusts from slices of bread
cut about half an inch thick and toast
to a delicate brown. , Spread each slice
lightly with butter, sprinkle lightly
witn salt and arrange tne slices In a
deep dish.- Pour over them enough
milk to cover the toast putting it on
slowly that it may soak" into the toast.
If you wish to expedite the work of
preparation, beat the milk; but if you
have plenty of time it may be put on
cold. When the dish is full cover it
and set it in the oven and leave it
there for 20 minutes. At the end of
that time the contents of the dish will
be 8 oft and steaming; remove the
cover and leave the dish in the oven
long enough to crisp the top layer
about ten minutes and serve from the
dish in which it was cooked.
Doing Several Things Together.
It was said of Caesar that he could
dictate to five secretaries at one-time.
Whether' true or not, at least' Caesar,
had the first ideas of efficiency, be
cause by grouping tasks and doing
similar processes together we do save
time. When peeling vegetables one
can speed up if several peelings or
pickings of fruit are done one after
the other. By carefully planning the
menus Jn advance it is surprising how
many tasks can be grouped together
with saving of time and effort and one
handling of utensils. Try it and you
will be surprised how efficient you will,
become and bow much labor you save
yourself.. ;
A Hint About Left-Overs.
When you have a quantity of meat
left over from the previous meal and
desire to 1- make hash or . . croquettes,
boll the meat for. an hour or two.
This renders the meat tender and the
croquettes will be far more palatable
than If the hard, dry meat is simply
chopped up, as most housekeepers do.
' Mint Salad. ..
Hreak oH the .tender tops of spear
mint. To one pint add one tablespcou
ful of minced chives. Dissolve, brown
sugar in vinegar and pour over. . Mus
tard or cresses may be used in place
of the mint or very young onions In
stead of chives. . '
Spilled Water.
Water spilled upon tfie bed. when
some one is ill, may be quickly dried
In this manner: Fill a hot water bot
tle with boiling water and place it
between the mattress and .the bed
clothing. : x
' To Roast a Joint. -
When about to roast a joint, cover
it with a rind saved.-' from .a piece of
ham or ' bacon and cook ' with it on.
This will save . the , trouble of . con
stant basting and .will prevent the
joint from burning or drying.
Baked Bean Soup. ;;;;
To. cold baked beans add as much
tomato sauce, pinch of salt,', pepper
and half an oaionW Cover withwater
and stew for half an hour. ,Sift' and
ierre. .'. . I . . -. '

rfi$T' Some
OR the mother or big sister who is anxious to do millinery work at
,g home there are models which may be attempted with every chance of
success, especially in hats for children's wear. Shapes, as a rule, are
-. becoming to start with. If the
the work of professional milliners at first, and not attempt original designing
until copying has trained her taste, she will be able to make certain kinds of
hats that will pass muster anywhere.
Here are three pretty hemp hats. They are the work of special design
ers of headwear for children. They look quite simple but they are the result
of trained knowledge and expert skill in the making of. this particular kind
of millinery. Any one can copy them successfully, but everyone cannot orig
inate hats equally good.
Select a shape that is becoming to the little miss whose needs are to
be filled, and be careful to get a hat that fits. This is half the battle. Choose
an attractive color1 they are rather gay this season or Select a white or
natural straw color. Any one of the methods of trimming shown here will
add to the becomingness of the hat, since none of them interfere with its
outlines.
The simplest trim consists of a band of soft wide ribbon Alice blue,
perhaps. At the front a flat bow of four loops is centered with a buckle
made cf tiny June roses. Sew this trimming to place and avoid that fault
which amateurs most often fall into don't sew It too flat to the shape.
- A childish ' and fascinating method of trimming, is shown in the bat
adorned with a wreath of large ox-eyed daisies and three upstanding bows of
mescaline ribbon. These bows consist of two loops each, one loon about half
as long as the other. The heart of the bow is finished with two small puffs
of ribbon. Tack the bows to the shape with the taller loops standing up and
the shorter extending to the upturn of the brim. It will not be necessary to
wire the loops because they are supported by the crown to which they are
fastened with a few stitches. .
The most original of the three designs is shown with a plaited ribbon
and fancy cord used to form the band and "stick up." A silk cord is braided
in three strands and applied to the accordion-plaited ribbon which surround
the crown. A fan or wing at the side is made hy sewing three rows of the
plaited ribbon to a small piece of rice net cut into he proper shape and wired
at the edge. The plaited cord is sewed
this is done a short length of cord is
the trimming.
FOR SEA BATHING OR MOTOR
Here Is Combination Headwear That
Is Pretty and Has Additional
Merit of Cheapness.
If you love to sea bathe and also
to motor and cannot afford to buy
distinctive caps for each sport, there
is a new combination in headwear
perfectly suited to your purse. It is
an affair in white rubber having a
gored crown and the three-inch brim
finished with rows of machine stitch
ing which distinguishes the regula
tion beach or steamer cap, and, like
that familiar article, is trimmed with
a band and a bow, also in rubber.
The lining of the crown forms an in
side cap of rubber which, instead of
being pushed upward, is drawn down
ward, fits closely about the head and
protects the half from the water,
while the brim protects the eyea from
the sun's glare. Without the hat, the
cap may be used for motoring in fine
weather as it is light and sheds the
dust, but when traveling during a
high wind, it is better to vuse the
tight-fitting cap without the upper
section. . 1
Chin Ribbons on Hats.
Satin chin ribbons are fastened, to
seme" of the white straw hats for lit
tle girls. The ribbon, in pale pink' or
blue, is attached to the inside of the
hat brim, close to one ear, with; a
small rosette. It is looped in a perma
nent bow under the chin and fastens
under a rosette at the other side of
the hat brim. These soft chin ribbons
are especially becoming to the dainty;

One little bride, with .more ingenui

frames from material like her wedding
dress, placed therein her portrait and

thing mounted under glass with a
