National progresa resulted tfrorn individual industry, energy and uprightness, just as National decay was caused by individual idienesa, selfishness and vice. What we decried as great social evils were but the outgrawth ai man's own perverted lufe. It was a great delusion ta think that liberty solely dependcd upon and consisted in government. The solid foundations ai liberty were based upon indiVidual character, tthe only sure guarantee ai social security and national progreas. Lions must help ta guard again- at Uic lure ai panaceas. The de- mand by sorne peaple for dictator- ship, socialism or acts of parlia- ment only would lead to "every- thing for the people"~ but "nothing by the people." These doctrines eventually destroyed, the free con- science ai the community and speediîy preparcd it for despotism. A far heaithier doctrine for Can- adians was self help in preference ta government hclp. Canada had been vcry delinqu- cnt in properly educating the newcomers ta aur shores and was reaping a harvesi ai unapprecia- tive new Canadiana ta aur way ai lufe. It was the duty >ai Lions ta sec that this shortcorning was lm- mcdiately rectiiied and that ail non-English speaking immigrants be requircd ta properly acquaint themselves with the benefits and pnivileges which Canada aiiordcd1 them aif thc ireedam aof conscience, thought and speech. Thc lack ai proper cultivation ta Canadianism in the past had pro- vided a massed field ai ignorance through which thc disruptive cie- ments were baring in. We stili had freèdomn in Canada at present but it was urne we awakened out ai our drcamy cornplacency. When political frcedom went, ecanamic freedom went with it. Free coun- tries provided the highest stand- ard af living for thc majarity but dictatorshipa irnproved thec-stand- ard for a lackey minority at the expense ai the majority. That Communism was actuaily the "Old" clasa govcrnment ai Russia in thc handa oi a new group more highly trained and ex- perienccd in the arts ai hurnan cruelty. Canadians had evcry rigit to be proud ai aur gencral systcm ai governrnent, and in view ai thc fact that the centre ai world re- aponsibility had deiinitely shiited ta the North Ainerica-n Continent, ,we should be cansciaus ai aur re- sponsibilities and optirnistic ai the future but aur aptimism must be backcd by vital and substan- tial work and action ratier than fanciful day drearna ai social se- curity. Let us be hurnan Lions ratier than Lamba and dcicnd and pro- tect the future happinass ai our Loved anes, was thc final advisc of the speaker. "Wc aIl leave footprints on tic sands; ai time.
