A PATRIOTIC CREED.
We acknowledge receipt from the
Chase National Bauk, ol New York
of a handsome wall card upon which
is printed "A Patriotic Creed."
The card is about 8x9% inches in
size and gotten out iu colors. In
a brtef note -which accompanied the
card was the following.
"In the lives of nations, as well as
of men, questions of grave import
ance occasionally arise concerning
which there may be an honest dif
ference of opinion.
"At such times it 's well to have
constantly in mind our confidence
and faith.
Knowing that the spirit of raal
American optimism embodied in our
Patriotic Creed will be helpful^ we
are sending you a cooy under sep
arate cover and trust you will give
it prominence."
The following is a copy of "A
Patriotic Creed."
"We believe in our country—The
United States of America. We be
lieve in her constitution, her laws,
her institutions and the principles
for which she stands. We believe
VICTORY IN DEFEAT.
Defeat :;iay serve as well as
victory
To shake the soul and let the
glory out.
When the great oak Is straining
in the wind
The boughs drink in new beauty
and the trunk
Sends down a deeper root on the
windward side.
Only the soul that knows the
mighty grief
Can know the mighty rapture.
Sorrows couie
To stretch out spaces in the
heart for Joy.
—Edward Markham.

We believe iu her vast resources,
her great possibilities—yes, more,
her wonderful certainties.
Wo believe in tae American pea
pie, iheir genius, their brain, and
their brawn. We believe in their
honesty, their integrity and depen
dability. We believe that nothing
can stand in the way of their com
mercial advancement and prosperity.
Wj believe that what are termed
"times of business depression" are
but periods of preparation for
greater and more pronounced com
mercial successes.
And we believe that in our coun

problems, the solutiion of which will
be for the benefit of all mankind.

The above is a beautitul profes
sion of faith in the American peo
ple, their laws and their institu

without question the final solution
of the great problems that are be
ing worked out to the intelligence
of the American people; and a
