It is essential for “man can not live by bread done." It is for this reason perhaps that We accept the library like all other essentials of life, water and fresh air. little realizing their im‘ portance unless. perchance. they happen to be withdrawn.

Except for the work which he accomplished and the ideals, which he c» tablished. Civilization might never have emerged from the wreck of the Roman empire. or had it emerged, it might have been as cold and cruel and heartless as the civilization of Greece and Rome which it supplanted. It was only the religion of Christ which preserved the traditions of human fellowship and kent the lamp of learning alight during that dark time. To Him in whose memory these holy days are sacred is due every institution of charity and mercy and benevolence which we enjoy today. every abatement of the ancient cruelties. and in addition to all this the very principles of democracy and civil liberty which are inseparable from the right understanding of the (‘hristian religion and are products of it. are- muntxtudw “1' men and-wunwn \vhn are good citizuns and kindly, 12m~ abiding people who belong tu no church. and who, it may be. are alienated from all institutional Christianityt Almost without; exception, however. tht-w pumie zu-knuwlvdge their «Ix-ht to the f'nunrlor nf ('hristinnily ‘A'Efinn: they regard as one of humanity's greatest benefactors and one of the world's greatest heroes.

Illinois Men have kept anniversaries ever since they began to divide time into years and months and days. and learned to appreciate and value the great deeds of heroes. and to cherish the memory of the past. Savages live from day to day and keep no records. It is only as they advance along the path at civilization that they observe the holidays and Holy days. some of which are so ancient that their beginnings are lost in the mists of antiquity. From the lamentation of the maidens in the temple at Abydos, weeping for Osiris on the anniversary of the death of the sun god. to the celebration of Armistice day, the whole course of modern civxlization may be traced. There is a natural inclination to commemorate such fast; and festivals and it is a wholesome and commendable custumi The anniversaries of the family and the home tend strongly to promote family loyalty a rafl'ection.
