His wafer supply is just as pure and abundant. His birds sing just as sweetly. His flowers bloom just as beautifully. His sun rises just as majesti cally and sets just as gloriously. His love is just as strong and abiding. What America tacks today is have statesmen; men into whose lives been instilled the'principles of honesty and integrity.
