humanity.
' Never ha a single utterance
so thrilled, inspired arid uplifted
the democratic millions of earth
as this utterance, which nobly
voiced the higher idealism of - the
Declaration of Independence and
the profoundest sentiments bt our
piople.
. Nowhere was the address' re
ceived with wilder enthusiasm
than at Petrograd, the recent
seat ofautocracy only equalled in
its insolen,t assumption of divine
right by the pretentions of the
sovereign on the.Tiber, the kaisei
and the sultan of Turkey. Here
soljpiers and civilians "gathered
in-the meeting place of the Duma
to. listen to "President": Wilson's
message which was read and ex
plained, amid profound and al
most breathless silence folic wed
by the wildest bursts of deafen
ing applause tha,t had ever been
heard in Petrograd, that ancient
seat of despotism. - I'his popular
enthusiasm :, wjsich knew no

pathetiomasses who revere the

by unbounded enthusiasim.
Lloyed George, the , prime
minister of ISngland, splendidly
characterized three phrases of
thfc great speech in the folk ;ving
words vibrant with the ide.il ism
of world democracy:
The glowing phrases ot , the
president s noble deliverance, il
ia mine .the, horizon, and make
clearer than ever the goa we
are.striviug to reaclr . . -There: are
three phrases which will tand
out-fofever in . the history or this
crusade. The first is lha: ' the
worid must be safe for democ

seems that the Daughters of the

made the mistake of Mnviting, as
the speaker of the day, Benjamin

S a mosseiisrer from a denartins:
tiful Watahvi-aso ("Biljjlit Star,") Princess of the Penobscot tribe and flower of one of the' .last -famlllei. of-.,
unmixed Indian blood. Longfellow's artful story of "Minnehaha," with its wondrous colorings and its tale
of love and -sorrow, revealed. much of ' the beauty of the aboriginal life and character, but it has remained for
,this modern singer of the songs of her fathers to bring their message to this later generation. ' 5 "M T '
'Her Indian chief tain, father, true to racial traditions, established and kept his family intact at theirtribal is
land home at Oldtown, near the coast of Maine. Far from, resisting those Influences which he knew ' would .at
tract his people away from the old life, he welcomed them, he himself laboring incessantly' for that education and
equipment "which later brought' him wide prominence and membership In the legislature of the Pine Tree 7 State.
,Then, one by one, came pale faced "Hiawathas" and carried off Watahw.aso's sisters, and their children and tbeir
children's chifdren, Americans all, will gather to retell the fast fading stories of their fathers.
...In later years invading hunters sought out. the Penobscot tribesmen to guide them through the Northern wilds'
and paddle their' canoes through the treacherous waters while the women remainingin the tepees wove the gor
geous baskets and beaded the buckskin garments. Watahwaso's father was now a recognized authority in Indian
history,; and folk lore and a speaker of distinct charm and more and more. was called to speak in public Often ac
comiiailying him was his little princess, charming and demure, who with-remarkable skill sang the tribal songs and
thahts and gracefully danced the ceremonial Indian dances. Up to this time her only tutors had been Sisters of ;
"Mercy ih their.' Indian school. '-.; . . - e ; ' ''
; A" professor from Cambridge, inquiring among the Penobscots for information concerning an ancestor whom-'
that tribe had taken prisoner in the French and v Indian war, discovered that Watahwaso's ancestors had befriend-,
ed his relative, . the prisoner. "In gratitude for ttis and in appreciation of the remarkable talent, displayed by the
little princess he arranged for her schooling at Canrrldi,,'. tacludhig' .study" with, masters in musical art
