PRESIDENT WILSON'S MESSAGE.
I feel that I can in good conscience and with a heart full of deep
confidence send a word of cheer to the workers of America on this
Labor Day of tho interesting year 1914. No one can look about him with
frank eyes, either in our beloved country or in any of the great nations
of our time which have civilization ln their hands, without feeling that
there is a steady movement both of purpose and of action towards justice,
and a fuller comprehension and realization of the essential rights and
liberties of men. The movement may bo slow, may at times seem dis-
tressingly and dlscouragingly slow, but It is unmistakable: and all that
we have to do to set it forward with ever-increasing momentum Is to
think Justly, purpose the things that aro right, and be afraid of nothing
except to be unfair and selfish and hasty when Interests as great as the
country Itself aro involved.
