the corner ¬ 4 stone of the Pilgrim memorial monut t t 4large whom were the descendants of the aristocracy of New England In his speech President Roosevelt took up the problems of government today and said that we should approach them with the same unswerving de ¬ votion to duty that moved the purl tan He said It Is not too much to say that the event commemorated by the monu ¬ ment which we have come here td dedicate was one of those rare events which can In good faith be called of world Importance The coming hither of the Puritan three centuries eqnttnent ¬ fected tho destiny of the whole world Men of other races the Frenchman and the Spaniard the Dutchman tho German the Scotchman and the Swede made settlements within what now the United States during the colonial period of our history and be R fcre the Declaration of independence and since then there has been ari everswelling immigration from Ire- land ¬ and from the mainland of Europe but It was the Englishman who settled in Virginia and the Eng ¬ lishman who settled in Massachusetts who did most in shaping the lines of our national development 1 We can not as a nation be too pro ¬ foundly grateful for tho fact that the Puritan has stamped his influence iBO deeply on our national life We have traveled far since his day That liberty of conscience which he demanded for himself we now realize must be as freely tic- orded ¬ to others as It is resolutely nof slated upon for ourselves The splen- dId ¬ qualities which he left to his chit ¬ drenweotberAmetlifanwhO t are not of Puritan blood also claim as l our heritage You sons of the Puri- tans and we who are descended from races whom the Puritans would have deemed allenwe are all Ameri- cans ¬ together Wo all feel the same rlde in the genesis In the history of people and therefore this shrine of Puritanism Is one at which we all gather to pay homage no matter from what country our ancestors sprang Our Danger We have gained some things that the Puritan had notwe of this gen- eration ¬ we of the twentieth century a here In this great republic but we are also In danger of losing certain things which the Puritan had and which we can by no manner of means afford to loose We have gained a joy of living which he had not and which it Is a good thing for every pooplo to have and to develop Let see to It that we do not lose what Is more important still that we do not lose the Puritans Iron sense of duty his unbending unflinching will to do tho right as It was given him to see the right It Is a good thing that life should gain In sweetness but only provided that it does not lost In strength Ease and rest and pleasure are good things but only If they 1 come fls the reward of work well done of a good fight well won of strong effort resolutely made and crowned by high achievement The life of mere pleasure of mere effort- less ¬ ease Is as Ignoble for a nation as for an individual The man Is but a poor father who teaches his sons that ease and pleasure should be their chief objects In life the woman who Is a mere petted toy Incapable of serious purpose shrinking tram effort and duty Is morn pitiable than the veriest overworked drudge So he is but a poor leader of tho people but a poor national adviser who seeks to make the nation In any way subordinate effort to ease who would teach the people not to prize as the greatest blessing the chance to do any work no matter how hard if it be ¬ comes their duty to do It Our Ideals should be high and yet they should be apable of achieve ¬ ment In practical fashion and

It Is not too much to say that theevent commemorated by the monu ¬
ment which we have come here tddedicate was one of those rare eventswhich can In good faith be called ofworld Importance The cominghither of the Puritan three centurieseqnttnent ¬

and from the mainland ofEurope but It was the Englishmanwho settled in Virginia and the Eng ¬
lishman who settled in Massachusettswho did most in shaping the lines ofour national development 1
We can not as a nation be too pro ¬
foundly grateful for tho fact that thePuritan has stamped his influence iBO
deeply on our national lifeWe have traveled far since his
day That liberty of consciencewhich he demanded for himself wenow realize must be as freely tic-
