To Our Friend, the World, this Message: 
 
 N International Exposition, 
 while portraying the im- 
 provement of Present over 
 Past, fails in its purpose if, 
 at the same time, it does not 
 prepare the ground for su- 
 periority in theFuture, and 
 sow the seeds of advance- 
 ment. "The assemblage of 
 produEls of the world* s thought and industry were 
 vain, if it were done but to call forth pride in the ac- 
 complishment of 'Today. 70 the degree that it inspires 
 loftier ideals and nobler purposes, and to the extent that 
 it stimulates not only material, but spiritual growth- 
 to such extent and to such degree alone can the measure 
 of its success attain. 
 
 The effeEl wrought upon human progress and world 
 betterment by the Panama- Pacific International Ex- 
 position, whose gates have but recently closed at San 
 Francisco, the legacy that it has bequeathed to the chil- 
 dren of men, and the heritage of the millions who came 
 to drink inspiration from the fountains of this great 
 world-university, have been pointed out by thousands 
 
of thinking men and women of national and interna- 
 tional importance^ who have written to us in expression 
 of their interpretation of the lessons which the Expo- 
 sition has inculcated. Their letters, full of the deepest 
 feeling^ of the profoundest understanding, and of rare 
 literary charm, were so forceful, so compelling, that it 
 is to be regretted that more could not be here presented. 
 W^e are able to publish the epitome of a few, only, of 
 the thousands received. There were many, whose use is 
 prevented by lack of space, that clearly indicated that 
 the writers had been permeated by the spirit of the Ex- 
 position : that they saw and understood the foundation 
 upon which was built this labor of love, for which great 
 sacrifices were made, and great energy and effort ex- 
 pended for the advancement of man in the broadest sense. 
 Acknowledgment can perhaps properly be made here 
 of the all too generous praise lavished by the writers 
 upon the President, Directors and other officials of the 
 Exposition for their part in this international mosaic. 
 While these kindly words are most gratefully received 
 and cherished, they cannot be given place in an inter- 
 pretation of an accomplishment into which no thought 
 of individuality must enter. Hence all reference to Ex- 
 position officials has been omitted. In likemanner senti- 
 ments from Calif ornians have not been here presented^ 
 
save in afew, exceptional cases ^ lest it be thought that 
 their tone of enthusiasm was the result rather of local 
 pride than of disinterested analysis. 
 
 There has been no attempt to segregate the sentiments 
 published. They are herewith printed in the alphabeti- 
 cal order of their respeSlive authors. In the hope that 
 the prophecies therein contained may be fulfilled^ and 
 that all may walk in the light thus shed upon the 
 pathway^ this book is presented to the reader.

 THE key to the Panama-Pacific Exposition was to be found 
 in the fact that it gave wings to the spirit of men wings 
 to lift up the mind, wings to lift up the soul, toward a life in 
 which material progress shall be glorified by a realization of 
 the value of beauty in life. ALLEN D . ALBERT 
 
 President, International Association of .

 IF WHAT the Exposition has done for the good of all the arts 
 and sciences may be measured by what it did for Insurance 
 within my own knowledge, then, indeed, has it become the 
 Headlight of Progress of this century.

 AT ALL times exhibitions of the arts and industries and the 
 gathering together of men of all nations for the discussion 
 of scientific and literary objects is a step toward bringing about 
 a better understanding among mankind. May the Panama- 
 Pacific International Exposition, closing as it does amidst the 
 cruel and devastating war, yet be the harbinger from the 
 New World to all nations of an era in which all international 
 hatreds shall cease and be replaced by a friendly competition 
 for the betterment of mankind, securing of equal rights for all 
 men, the removal of unjust discrimination against any people 
 because of race or creed and the carrying of justice and liberty 
 to the uttermost ends of the earth!

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition stands as a

 is a glowing tribute to the arts of peace. The sentiment for 
 peace needs not defense; it needs utterance impressive and re- 
 peated utterance. ALFRED G. ALLEN

 IN ADDITION to fulfilling its avowed mission as a fitting cele- 
 bration of the completion of the Panama Canal, the Ex- 
 position has, under the unusual conditions which have pre- 
 vailed during the past 'year, contributed more than any one 
 factor to the increase of patriotism and unification of the great 
 American people. L. M. ALLEN

 recreate patriotic devotion, is here made prophetic of a future 
 of untold peace, honor and progress for all humanity.

 E Panama-Pacific International Exposition has been of

 '"T^HE Exposition has marked mankind's material progress

 seen the latest achievements of science, such wonderful col-

 where we are in the United States of America, it is our country.

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has not only 
 testified to the unity of America, but it has served to 
 bring to the national consciousness the truth not yet ade- 
 quately realized, that the Pacific Coast with its western out- 
 look is as important as the Atlantic Coast with its eastern 
 outlook, and that it is as essential to the interests of America 
 to establish and maintain friendly relations with Japan, China 
 and India toward the west as with the European nations toward 
 the east. LYMAN ABBOTT 
 
 Editor-in-Chief of "The Outlook," 
 New York City 
 
 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has recorded 
 the accomplishment and portrayed the loftiest hopes and 
 worthiest ambitions of the human race. It has pictured pure 
 achievement and left unmixed with mediocrity records, pat- 
 terns and ideals for the future of mankind. The Exposition 
 has been to those privileged to attend what the senses are that 
 link the individual with his environment, but the vision has 
 been immensely broadened and the hearing quickened to catch 
 voices wafted across continents and oceans. Not merely the 
 senses, but the sensibilities, have been refined and exalted by 
 the examples of marvels wrought and lessons taught in co- 
 operative effort to advance the human race. Greater than all 
 that have gone before in those things that make an exposition 
 great, this last Exposition leaves us with wide-open eyes and 
 clear vision looking confidently into the future with the as- 
 surance that yet greater things are in store for us.

Exposition * San Francisco, 
 
 E thoughtful mind, recognizing what has been done all 
 over the world, cannot be closed to the fact that each new 
 discovery, each new invention, each new development, is only 
 the beginning of greater and more important work. Thus, 
 this wonderful Exposition, like all preceding exhibitions of this 
 kind, far from marking the end of finished work, rather opens 
 new fields to the inventor and discoverer, and gives new sub- 
 jects of thought to the thinker and philosopher. It will stand 
 out more powerful and prominent than any other that came 
 before, or any other that may come after. It demonstrated to 
 the whole world that true progress and happiness lie in the works 
 of peace alone, and that no betterment of the human race can be 
 expected until the sword of battle has been sheathed. The 
 efforts of the human mind were here directed to build up and 
 improve, not to destroy and devastate. In place of the wail- 
 ings and heart-rending cries of widows and orphans, we could 
 raise the hallelujahs of industrial and commercial progress. 
 Instead of destroying the works of art and science of former 
 centuries, we pointed the way to further development, better- 
 ment and happiness. WILLIAM c. ALPERS 
 
 President of The American Pharmaceutical 
 Association, Cleveland, Ohio. 
 
 PENNSYLVANIA College for Women begs to join with other 
 educational and civic bodies in expressing its apprecia- 
 tion of what the Exposition has meant in the accomplishment 
 of human betterment. From the purpose and scope of this 
 great enterprise, we are persuaded that no similar exposition 
 has been fraught with greater results tending toward human 
 enlightenment and progress. JOHN c ACH ESON

 Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. 
 
 TTooD College, Frederick, Maryland, heartily joins in con-

 BEAUTIFUL in situation, glorious in architectural conception, 
 the Panama-Pacific International Exposition has shown 
 its visiting millions how man can create vastness and yet give 
 it the highest beauty in both form and color. Such heritage 
 of creative harmony must continue to make for human happi- 
 ness and betterment. EDWARD E. ALLEN 
 
 President, American Association of 
 Instructors of the Blind, 
 Watertown, Massachusetts. 
 
 WHATEVER the Panama-Pacific International Exposition has 
 accomplished or may accomplish will not be found in the 
 products of science and literature and art that have crowded 
 its spacious buildings, but in the great life currents that have 
 been brought through national channels into touch with each 
 other; and in the fact that these currents of life have found 
 like interests and sympathies and aspirations that have crys- 
 tallized into a lasting fraternalism, and have contributed to a 
 deepening sense of the brotherhood of man, if not to the pro- 
 founder conviction of the Fatherhood of God. As the Nations 
 thus come together under peaceful skies and with their exhibits 
 of their legitimate industries, and thus come to know each 
 other better, the world will improve and make progress. There 
 will be a healthy rivalry, but at the same time a spirit of mutual 
 interest and co-operation developed, that will make for world 
 progress and Christian civilization.

 IN THE completion of the Panama Canal, the dream of Colum- 
 bus, who sought a " trades route to the East by way of the 
 West," has been happily realized, thus achieving for the com- 
 
ftbe Exposition * San Francisco, 
 
 merce and intercourse of all nations and all peoples the most 
 momentous event of the twentieth century, in every sense 
 world-wide in character and importance. The Panama-Pacific 
 International Exposition fitting celebration of this stupen- 
 dous achievement closes its gates and passes into history; and 
 we feel sure that a glorious page awaits the record that this has 
 been the greatest, the most complete, the most artistic and the 
 
 most wonderful Exposition of all time.

 TT MAY be said justly that the Panama-Pacific International 
 -* Exposition belongs to history, but it also belongs, as a 
 pleasant and enduring memory, to those who had the good 
 fortune to visit it. The Exposition intended to display to the 
 world not only the products of man's labor, the activities that 
 contribute to the comfort and refinement of life, but also to 
 present as far as possible the social forces that stir, the moral 
 forces that appeal to, the heart and will of mankind. The 
 movement for the abolition of child serfdom is one of these 
 forces, and the occasion was offered us to present our work to 
 the considerate appreciation of our fellow-citizens. As for 
 the Exposition in its entirety, the grandeur of conception that 
 characterized the whole, the enchanting beauty of many of its 
 details, will long stay with me as a delightful recollection. I 
 was struck especially with the pulsation of life in it all, the 
 sense of a great creative effort in the American people strug- 
 gling to express itself. But more than all, I was consoled by 
 my visit to the Exposition just at the time when this frightful 
 war was raging abroad, to realize our happy remoteness from 
 the scene and the causes of quarrel, and, by contrast, the multi- 
 form blessings of peace. That this Exposition, so successfully 
 brought to a close, may leave on the mind of the people an 
 enduring prepossession in favor of peace, is my earnest wish.

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition is symbolic of 
 the fruits of industry, in displaying the highest attainment 
 which has been reached in the useful and beautiful; in present-

 the individual, and civic unity the antithesis of idleness and 
 of destruction and waste through strife and bitterness of hate.

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has a deep 
 significance in that it was held to celebrate the opening 
 of communication between the people and nations of the 
 world, bringing them together not only in commerce, but in 
 friendship, sympathy and respect for each other. May it 
 bring together the hearts of all the people as well as link the 
 bonds of trade! In the homes of every land may the lessons 
 of love and friendship be instilled in the minds of children to 
 bear rich fruitage when to them come the duties of manhood 
 and womanhood! MRS. A. A. BIRNEY

 IN THESE times, when the face of so large a part of the world 
 has been miserably turned backward toward barbarism, 
 I believe that the Panama-Pacific International Exposition 
 has done much to turn the face of humanity toward the larger 
 era of international co-operation and good-will that is surely 
 coming. With the nations of the world today being rapidly 
 brought together by the new agencies of communication, com- 
 merce, and politics, one of the supreme tasks of the age is to 
 bring about a better understanding and spirit of co-operation 
 between these nations. Let the Exposition be a herald, an- 
 nouncing to the world that peace and prosperity can come 
 only with righteousness and brotherhood and are to come on 
 those terms. Let the old narrow spirit of exploitation be 
 banished by the new broad spirit of service throughout the 
 earth! c. j. BUSHNELL

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has marked

 Loftiest Sentiments 
 
 AMONG all the multiplicity and variety of impressions which 
 impinged upon my mind, there was none so strong as a 
 deduction I made in the quiet of my own room, the result of 
 this turbid, roaring swirl of impressions a deduction of a dis- 
 tinctively moral order, namely, man's service of man. I 
 saw it in the great and small machinery whose vast and in- 
 finitesimal wheels whirred off the labor of a million men at 
 the cost of the wage of a thousand men and at a saving of 
 millenniums of time. I saw it in the devices in multiplied 
 thousands designed to contribute to the legitimate pleasures 
 of life. I saw it in the art and architecture which serve to make 
 full and perfect human character. I saw it emphatically in 
 the vast indications of educational, religious, missionary and 
 eleemosynary activities. I saw the great, fine, strong minds 
 of the world laboring and collaborating, giving their rarest 
 powers in the service of their fellows, and giving thus at the 
 sacrifice of comforts and pleasures, often of home and friends 
 and other objects which the heart of man holds dear. I have 
 prayed that we may see the day when the genius and talent 
 represented in this vast volume of service, which is in large 
 measure unconscious or in a sense involuntary, may be vol- 
 untarily and deliberately consecrated to the service of God 
 and man may be set to the solving of the problems of poverty, 
 under whose galling burdens so- many millions of our race are 
 crushed. EV A BOOTH

 E Panama-Pacific International Exposition is a concrete

 attention on the vast resources and the great versatility of the 
 unequalled genius of the American people.

 AY the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, symbolic 
 of the best there is in the twentieth century spirit of prog- 
 ress, go down in the golden pages of history as the wonder- 
 achievement of a new and higher and nobler civilization! It 
 has shown in the most convincing and practicable manner that 
 the achievements and heroes of peace ever stand out above and 
 beyond the glories of the red-strewn battle-field. It marks an 
 epoch in the march of industrial, social and moral progress 
 which cannot be too highly emphasized. Above and beyond 
 the sentiment of patriotism, it has shown to the world the 
 glowing light of a human brotherhood which shall know no 
 barrier of race, or creed, or flag.

 T AM convinced that the Panama-Pacific International Expo-

 and done more for human betterment and world progress than 
 any other exposition ever held on this hemisphere or in the 
 world. The unusual conditions that have existed during its 
 life have caused America to become a world power. The won- 
 derful success of the Panama-Pacific Exposition under these 
 unusual conditions has caused it to become a mile-stone in the 
 pathway of progress of all nations of the world to which they 
 will look back with pride and satisfaction.

 IN MY judgment the Panama-Pacific International Exposition 
 has had a most beneficent effect in directing attention to 
 the arts and achievements of Peace in a period of gloom and

 Peace at a time when the world was being made especially 
 conscious of the savagery and horrors of War.

 E Exposition has been far more than a fitting commemo-

 tion may confidently be made that this latest Exposition has 
 been the largest and best of all. It will afford an enduring

 dustry, and in its largest aspects will render potent aid in 
 creating good-will and a better understanding among the 
 
 nations.

 firmly impressed upon the nations of the world, and more 
 particularly upon the people of our own country, our natural 
 resources, the skill of our workmen, and our capacity and 
 ability to compete in the world's markets. It has shown that 
 we have progressed far in art and genius; but greater than these, 
 it so strikingly impressed upon all who have seen or read of 
 the Exposition, the glorious works of peace and upbuilding, 
 contrasted with the devastation and destruction of war. The 
 Exposition has typified in the highest degree the unity of the 
 American people and their co-operation with each other and 
 with the peoples of the globe. w G BIERD

 \ s THE Exposition brought solace and relief to many hearts 
 ** aching in sympathy for their compatriots fighting on the 
 battle-fields of Europe for the betterment of humanity and 
 world progress, so may its memory, indelibly impressed as it 
 must be on the minds of those who participated in its beauties, 
 serve to preserve that peace which will be attained when victory 
 rests upon the banners which have been raised in the cause of 
 justice and righteousness to be rendered all nations. Peace 
 has its triumphs as well as war, and in the realm of the arts and 
 of science, the educational value of this wonderful display, 
 which in ensemble has never been excelled on this continent, 
 must endure in a lasting benefit to the world.

 E Exposition in its entirety has struck a universal note. 
 
 In its broad appeal it has constituted an educational factor 
 of the greatest importance, exemplifying and summing up the 
 march and progress of modern life. It has voiced and created 
 new and higher aspirations. Its loftiest message is surely this: 
 that the arts of Peace and the service of our common humanity 
 challenge all that is strongest and best in man's nature, de- 
 manding the exercise of his fullest powers; and that in those 
 broad channels his energies and ceaseless activities will find 
 their truest expression and man himself his deepest happiness.

 npms remarkable exhibition was as striking an exemplifica-

 the unfortunate conflict, now going on abroad, of the world's 
 advancement in the destructive science of war. The collec- 
 tion presented of the innumerable products of human work- 
 manship enabled visitors to the vast display to learn just what 
 improvement every country was making in all pursuits, and to 
 profit by the lesson. The landscape gardening of the grounds, 
 the striking grouping of the buildings and their impressive 
 architectural charm afforded a feast for the eye that sent a 
 thrill of admiration through those who beheld them, and which 
 cannot fail to develop in all a love for the beautiful in life.

 rangement, illumination and conduct which adds a new chapter 
 to art, science, education and business. To visit the Exposi-

 THIS Exposition has demonstrated that America and Ameri- 
 cans, in spite of stress of unfortunate circumstances and a 
 war without parallel, have held the greatest Exposition of all 
 the ages; have been able to elicit exhibits from warring nations 
 and have shown that the triumphs of peace are greater than 
 those of war; that "Peace hath its victories no less renowned 
 than War" is clearly proven, if it needed such proof. The arts 
 and sciences have shown at the Exposition that humanity pros- 
 pers in peaceful pursuits, and convince us that war and its 
 ravages are to be avoided when it can be done with national 
 honor. God speed the day when international sentiment will 
 forbid the arbitrament of arms except as a last resort!

 E Exposition teaches that peace between Nations, as be-

 will between men is the condition precedent to peace on earth, 
 and our Nation, because of its kinship with all the other nations, 
 is in position to lead in the movement for universal peace. 
 With this supreme opportunity comes an unparalleled responsi- 
 bility. That it may live up to this responsibility must be the 
 prayer of all patriotic citizens. WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN

 TT^ROM a national standpoint the Exposition has emphasized 
 -- the tremendous possibilities of our vast resources, and the 
 vital importance of our inter-communications by rail and water, 
 as well as the immense advantage that must accrue to the 
 Pacific Coast through the construction of the Panama Canal. 
 From an international standpoint it has marked the inevitable 
 progress of modern civilization in the arts and sciences; and 
 has served to still further stimulate the industrial activities of 
 mankind through friendly competition and rivalry, and by pro- 
 moting the pursuits of peace. GEO w. BOYD

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has brought 
 together the forward movements of many people and the 
 brotherly co-operation of many nations working to a common 
 end in world service. In its very inception, the Exposition is 
 different from the other World's Fairs, as it looks toward future 
 accomplishment, rather than celebrating past achievement. 
 It is the foreword of the great internationalism which is the hope 
 
 of the world.

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has given a 
 new view to the world at large of our progress in the arts 
 and sciences and in all that goes to add to the comfort and well- 
 being of our people. This memorable event inevitably suggests 
 the awful contrast between its peaceful activities and the scenes 
 of carnage now going on in other countries. Peace without 
 justice is a vain dream, and a nation that loves peace must be 
 prepared to defend and maintain justice, without which peace 
 would be a mockery and delusion. Let us hope that the Expo- 
 sition has made this lesson plain. THOMAS BURKE

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has been the 
 outward and visible sign of better things. It has taught 
 that the greater triumphs of mankind are those of peaceful con- 
 quest over the forces of nature. The achievements of science in 
 the fields of Medicine, Electricity, Chemistry and Engineering; 
 the genius which has developed the applied and ornamental arts; 
 the advances in education, housing and other subjects bearing 
 upon the material welfare of humanity all have been shown 
 in a manner to impress the imagination and stimulate still 
 greater efforts. j^ o . B. BERRYMAN

 ONE of the memorable results of the Panama-Pacific Inter- 
 national Exposition has been brought about by the numer- 
 ous national and international celebrations and meetings. They 
 have confirmed the unforgettable fact that in the arts and 
 sciences, in the promotion of the general welfare and kindly re- 
 lation between man and man, all peoples of all lands are striving 
 for a common end. Thus, the cementing of brotherly ties will 
 hasten the day when universal Peace and Brotherhood shall 
 prove the parent of universal Happiness.

 E sentiment of a higher type of Internationalism must 
 appeal to every sane-thinking inhabitant of this western 
 hemisphere: the type of internationalism exemplified by our 
 own national policy and supported by an overwhelming ma- 
 jority of our own people; a type of internationalism which 
 keenly desires peace, but only peace with honor never with 
 dishonor and that will strive mightily to attain and hold it. 
 To my mind the Panama-Pacific Exposition stands for more 
 than this: it commemorates the bringing closer together of all 
 the nations of the earth, but particularly the nations of this 
 western hemisphere, most of whom need the help of this great 
 republic. The stronger nations of the south temperate zone, 
 uniting with the English-speaking nations of the north tem- 
 perate zone in the western hemisphere, should between them be 
 able to evolve a type of internationalism which will appeal to 
 the nations of the old world and set an example for them to

 THE marking of a new epoch in progress by the Panama-

 history, is a fit legacy to be bequeathed by the young peace- 
 loving giant among nations; and ages hence, when the history 
 of this fateful year to European nations is read, many will be 
 the students who will stop to ponder the amazing peace victory 
 won at San Francisco while nearly every other nation of earth 
 was blood-mad and blind. May the loom of Time push fast the 
 shuttle of Progress set going by the Panama-Pacific Interna-

 'T^HE Panama-Pacific International Exposition is one of the

 a splendid achievement in a splendid way. It has com- 
 memorated most appropriately the enterprise that conceived 
 and the courage that executed the union of two oceans by em- 
 phasizing and honoring the intellectual, constructive side of 
 human endeavor. It has written ineffaceably America's belief 
 in progress, culture and civilization.

 THE great pity is that such a marvelous spectacle should 
 cease to exist and be blotted out forever, but the memory 
 of it will endure in the minds of all who have witnessed it, and 
 its influence will extend to the remotest ends of the earth. Its 
 graceful, classic towers with resplendent, harmonious lines sub- 
 limely lighted at night presented a scene of thrilling grandeur 
 hitherto unparalleled in the world's experience. The exhibits 
 from home and abroad in variety and extent eclipsed all pre- 
 vious Expositions, and reflected the marvelous advancement 
 and perfection attained by all the participant nations in the 
 various fields of education, invention, the -sciences and indus- 
 trial arts. This was the greatest Exposition that the world has 
 ever seen. w A CLARK

 IF, IN admiration of the glories of the Exposition, one might 
 call it the eighth wonder of the world, we should still have to 
 remember that the seven of classic lore was each for its own 
 period and people, while the Panama-Pacific International Ex- 
 position has stood for "World Service, World Peace, World 
 Patriotism." It was a vision of splendor; its memory will be a 
 cherished treasure of the heart. It engendered an increased 
 reverence for human capacity, and was a prophecy of the har- 
 mony that is to be between the most distant and diverse 
 peoples when we find their common tie on the one hand in 
 their common struggles on their path of evolution, and, on the 
 other hand, in the Divine Order where all have the same Source 
 and the same Destiny. CLARA BEWICK COLBY

 aesthetic and religious ideals of our people.

 THE frowning fortresses that now mark the boundaries of the 
 nations will be dissolved in the light that has been cast 
 upon the progress of civilization in this incomparable Exposi-

 the construction of the great canal itself, which this celebration 
 has so impressively commemorated an event of today, looking 
 fearlessly forward to the future, with no regretful reminiscence 
 of a day that has passed. The Panama-Pacific International 
 Exposition is the first of its kind in history to typify the pulsat-

 great oceans have also been connected together by the human 
 voice carried across the North American Continent by wires 
 and then carried back again through thousands of miles of space 
 without the use of intervening wires. While the physical em-

 THE great Panama-Pacific Exposition, in commemoration of 
 the completion of the Canal linking the Atlantic and 
 Pacific Oceans, may well be said to demonstrate that "Peace 
 hath its Victories. " Such notable achievements as the Panama 
 Canal and the Exposition will make the year 1915 memorable 
 for its peaceful accomplishments. This year also commemo- 
 rates the completion of 100 years' peaceful occupation of the 
 continent of North America by two great nations, with no 
 semblance of offense or defense along a boundary of over 3,000 
 miles. Such will be the history read by future generations.

 ABOVE everything else, the artistic unity and harmony of 
 the Panama-Pacific International Exposition suggest the 
 present unity and increasing harmony of all sections of this 
 great country of ours, and the hope that out of dreadful times 
 like these may emerge a better understanding by every nation 
 of every other nation, which will make possible a permanent 
 world federation. CHARLES G. DU BOIS

 THE Exposition, not only in its architecture, exhibits and 
 congresses, but also in its achievements, has marked an 
 advance in those things that make a people truly great. The 
 verdict of today, that the world has been benefited, patriotism 
 inculcated, progress manifested, will be the story told future 
 generations in the history of the Panama-Pacific International 
 Exposition. This Exposition, in principle and in action, tower- 
 ing up in majestic proportions upon the shores of the placid 
 Pacific, must be narrated as the wonder and admiration of the 
 world. May its teachings circle and re-circle the globe so that 
 every sentiment of the human heart will be in accord with the

 AT THIS critical moment in the world's history the Exposition 
 is a miraculous and providential reaffirming of faith in 
 man's aspirations and purposes. Its transcendent beauty made 
 the never-failing and direct appeal to the human heart. Through 
 a nation's arts alone is its soul revealed. Thus the Exposition 
 became a superb monument expressive of the highest ideals and 
 attainments of civilization. The world's last mile-stone of ad- 
 vancement, its significance overflows the imagination and pales 
 the meaning of words. FRANK VINCENT DU MONO

 WITH half the world bent on the destruction of lives and

 FROM its inception, this vast undertaking has held a great 
 interest for me, and my fondest expectations were realized 
 when the opportunity came to view the completed work of 
 master minds. I marvelled at its architectural magnificence 
 and perfection, its completeness, its magnitude; but, apart 
 from this, I was deeply impressed with a sense of the greater 
 and higher things which the Exposition typifies and for which 
 it stands as monumental. It marks an epoch in our history and 
 that of the world; it stands as a wonderful tribute to the vic- 
 tories of peace, industry and higher civilization.

 THIS Exposition has been one of the greatest movements 
 towards the uplift of mankind ever entered into by peoples 
 of the civilized races. Every branch of uplift for all classes and 
 ages of peoples has been taken care of and touched upon. It has 
 been one of the most stupendous undertakings the world has 
 ever known. It has demonstrated that peoples of all races can 
 and will act in harmony if given the proper opportunity to 
 understand each other. J AS H DE VEUVE

 'T^HE world has answered the Exposition's call, and it has

 ONE cannot but believe that this wonderful exhibit of the 
 arts of peace, as well as the opening of the great interna- 
 tional highway thereby celebrated, will contribute much to 
 bind the world into closer union, and to prevent the recurrence 
 of the awful scenes that have so contrasted with the peaceful 
 beauty of the dream city by the Golden Gate. Every such 
 force uplifting the human mind and spirit must hasten the day 
 when the sword shall be forever sheathed. The Exposition 
 typified joyous human brotherhood. Would that all mankind 
 might breathe in its spirit! E DANA DURAND

 THE progress of centuries in art and science, in industrial 
 development, in intellectual, moral and religious advance- 
 ment, was epitomized in the Panama-Pacific International Ex- 
 position. It was the greatest world's exposition and educational

 belief in the interdependence of all the nations of the world.

 THE bringing together of exhibits showing the arts, manu-

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has made it 
 possible to find one place in the world, during this year of

 due regard for each nation's right to live and let others live.

 THE Exposition has helped greatly to hold our faith to the 
 idea of an ultimate triumph of world peace and good-will, 
 at a time when events abroad tended to destroy that faith. It 
 cannot fail to help clear away international misunderstandings, 
 and to make progress towards the goal of universal democracy, 
 which alone is the pledge of the safety of our civilization.

 has strengthened our faith in man's better nature. The setting 
 of the Exposition in this tragic year makes the ideals for which 
 it stands shine out all the brighter; and when these days of con- 
 flict are over the whole world will turn to the pursuits of peace 
 as typified by the Exposition. c F DALY

 IN THE face of this terrible catastrophe, the Panama-Pacific 
 Exposition has promoted internationalism and permanent 
 peace between the nations by presenting them a basis of co- 
 operation in the great work of civilization. It has shown that 
 co-operation not conflict; peace not war, is the true destiny 
 of nations. Back of this physical contest between the nations, 
 there is another war, the war between two ideas the idea of 
 nationalism on the one side and the idea of internationalism on 
 the other. This deeper struggle is an intellectual and spiritual 
 one, and it will continue long after this war has come to an end. 
 It must continue until the basis of fair internationalism is estab- 
 lished. By its position during this contest, America has made 
 a great contribution to this, the supreme cause of mankind, and 
 the Panama-Pacific Exposition has embodied this idea in con- 
 crete form. CHARLES WM. DABNEY 
 
 President, University of Cincinnati,

 'T^HE Panama-Pacific International Exposition is the most

 all the nations of the western hemisphere where will be worked 
 out the great ideal of human brotherhood by the realization of 
 which alone can come universal peace.

 EXPOSITIONS are the meeting-places of the world, where na- 
 tions assemble to interchange their ideas the product of 
 their toil toward progress. The Panama-Pacific International 
 Exposition has been the greatest mart of this kind. Nations 
 from all quarters have displayed their choicest wares; but by 
 far the most impressive spectacle was the array of the wonder- 
 ful achievements, of the invaluable contributions to civilization 
 of this mighty country, the United States of America. The 
 Federation of the French Alliances in the United States and 
 Canada has deemed it its greatest pleasure and honor to have 
 contributed to the magnificent success obtained by the Expo-

 of insurance companies and the holding of the World's Insur-

 THE outstanding feature of the Exposition, aside from the ob- 
 vious fact of its unusual beauty, was the many Congresses 
 which were held during its period. In emphasizing this feature 
 of Congresses, the Panama-Pacific International Exposition 
 recognized the importance of those large social and educational 
 movements with which the great majority of these organiza- 
 tions are concerned. When, in addition, we consider the generous 
 amount of space allowed for educational and social welfare 
 exhibits, we must realize that all that has been contributed 
 in the fields of modern, scientific social work was painstakingly 
 assembled and displayed. Surely, no more consistent endeavor 
 for human betterment could have been essayed.

 the greatest educational opportunity of the times. At no other 
 international exposition have the marvelous results of electrical 
 discoveries been so fully exhibited. The world at large has 
 learned the lessons of the latest scientific development from the 
 demonstrations, exhibits and discussions at the Panama-Pacific 
 International Exposition. It has witnessed in the Exposition a 
 worthy celebration of the "mightiest deed the hand of man has 
 done," the construction of the Panama Canal.

 E exposition of industrialism typified by the Panama-Pa- 
 cific International Exposition is the apotheosis of the con- 
 structive and upbuilding forces in life. As such it is harmonious 
 with, and related to, the ideals and purposes of life insurance, 
 and it was, therefore, appropriate that life insurance should 
 have been accorded so prominent a position at the Exposition, 
 since both are of great benefit and inspiration to the country.

 o'erflowed with gratitude and praise to the Giver of all good 
 gifts; where the highest types of world-wide peace, service and

 TT^URTHER and deeper than the beauty and instructiveness of 
 -- its display, the Panama-Pacific International Exposition 
 has directed the attention of the American people to the prod- 
 ucts and problems of the Pacific, instructing them as to the 
 products, and awakening them to the necessity of a deep study 
 of the problems which will need the best statesmanship of the 
 world for many years to come. G w EDMONDS

 A GREAT International Exposition makes for the uplift of all 
 ** mankind by bringing in touch personally, through com- 
 mercial, manufacturing and art exhibits there assembled, and 
 through the various congresses for the promotion of religion, 
 science, philanthropy and peace, the master minds of every 
 nation in these greatest lines of endeavor. The world upheaval 
 during the critical stages of the preparatory work, and its con- 
 tinuance since, called for the highest patriotism and devotion 
 to the ideals for which the great Exposition stands.

f tb e Exposition * San Francisco, 
 
 IN THE great Panama-Pacific Exposition, which it was my 
 privilege to visit, we have had set up a standard of interna- 
 tional relations to which all the world must ultimately come. 
 Not in war, not in destruction, lies the rivalry of nations; but 
 in the promotion of international good- will by the advancement 
 of the arts of peace, and by progress in the things for which the 
 Panama-Pacific Exposition was built and to which it was 
 dedicated. JOHN A. EARL 
 
 President, Des Moines College, 
 Des Moines, Iowa. 
 
 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition, being held at 
 a time when Europe is engaged in a mighty carnal struggle, 
 has demonstrated the superiority of the American policy to the 
 European policy. One service among an innumerable number 
 might be said to be the demonstration that the ideals of peace 
 are superior to the ideals of war, and that the brotherhood of 
 mankind is the highest goal of human society. 
 
 DAVID M. EDWARDS 
 
 President, Penn College,

 THE Exposition will endure as a conspicuous mile-post in in- 
 dustrial progress: a fitting monument to human brother- 
 hood at a time when old civilizations seem to have forgotten or 
 buried the instincts of fraternity which should bind mankind in 
 a society whose benefits would reach every clime and permeate 
 every race. St. Louis and Chicago welcome San Francisco to 
 full fellowship in the association of Universal Exposition cities 
 of America. DAVID R. FRANCIS

 *E presence at the Exposition of ships of the United States 
 Pacific Reserve Fleet has been of great benefit to the Navy 
 and to our country in bringing officers and men in touch with 
 the representatives of foreign countries and with the commis- 
 sioners from the different States of the Union. This intimate 
 acquaintance and delightful, personal intercourse with distin- 
 guished men from all parts of the world, must have proved to 
 them that the Navy of the United States will always loyally 
 applaud and conform to the policy outlined by President Wilson 
 in a recent address, in which he declared that our military and 
 naval forces are maintained "not for attack in any quarter, not 
 for aggression of any kind, not for the satisfaction of any politi- 
 cal or international ambition, but merely to make sure of our 
 security." In contributing to a proper understanding of the 
 peaceful policy of the United States, the Panama-Pacific Inter- 
 national Exposition has done much to promote human better- 
 ment and world progress. w. F. FULLAM

 freedom it stands as an example of united effort and brotherly 
 love. But beyond all this it has risen above a common display 
 of marketable products and has become for all time a realization 
 of the dreams of the practical idealist; a city, restful and beauti- 
 ful; a masterpiece of fine art, a product of which the Greeks 
 themselves would be justly proud; a constant source of inspira- 
 tion for every teacher to place before the new generation.

 world to appreciate while it furnishes a vision of its possibilities. 
 It has emphasized the international character of commerce and 
 trade, the close relations of all peoples, the interdependence of 
 nations, and has opened the way for better understandings and 
 mutual good- will. It has strengthened the ties of sympathy and 
 affection between all portions of our common country as it

 where "every man is set free to do and be his best."

 more of the greatness of their country and its place among the

^e <j?g ac y of the Exposition * San Francisco, 
 
 OUR first great Exposition, in 1876, displayed to the world 
 the possibilities of the great Republic as a member of the 
 family of nations; that of Chicago in 1893 pointed to a new 
 world in art and industry; that of Buffalo to the march of science 
 and art as affected by the application of electricity; that of St. 
 Louis, to the stride of education as applied to all departments 
 of human activity. But it was left to the Panama-Pacific 
 International Exposition to embody in a completed whole all 
 these elements, with the added feature of the emphasis of the 
 aesthetic. The dominant note of this last great World's Fair 
 seemed to me to be expressed in the beauty of design, the per- 
 fection of form in execution and the charm of satisfying com- 
 pleteness as an effort worthy the admiration of all. The entire 
 nation will be glad to point to it as a possession belonging to the 
 United States of America, a national heritage.

 THIS Exposition has marked an epoch in the world's progress

 that go to the upbuilding and progress of Humanity. Other 
 expositions have exhibited the successive stages of the marvel-

 Panama-Pacific Exposition was the first, I believe, to emphasize, 
 at least in a broad and effective way, the forces that make for 
 social betterment and uplift, and the wonderful achievements 
 which may be made by social co-operation and brotherhood.

 THIS is the day of the concrete and the personal; men demand 
 to see and to feel; therefore, expositions are a necessity. 
 The Panama-Pacific International Exposition has been a great 
 get-together meeting, a mammoth international university where 
 the nations and people of the earth have entered as learners. 
 Products, inventions, ideas, triumphs, and achievements have 
 been compared and studied, mutual needs and advantages dis- 
 covered, personal and national friendships formed and plans 
 suggested and made for world betterment, world progress and 
 world peace. Never before has it been so brought home to the 
 minds and hearts of men that the whole world is only one great 
 country and that the goal of the highest and best type of inter- 
 nationalism is a "United States of the World." The education, 
 the better understanding, the friendships, the great object les- 
 sons of mutual need and helpfulness and co-operation achieved 
 by our nation through this great Exposition now closing con- 
 stitute a necessary, great, and glorious contribution to the sum- 
 total of all that makes for world peace.

 been made known throughout the world by means of the graphic 
 arts. Only those who were privileged to be in the sessions of 
 the vital conferences which took place during the Exposition 
 and to meet the thinking people of the world can best appre- 
 ciate this other phase of the Exposition activities. The story 
 of the personal side of the Exposition probably would make as 
 interesting and inspiring a tale as that recounting the outward 
 
 62

 magnificence of grounds, buildings and displays. Both public 
 and more intimate phases went together most successfully. 
 The individual never felt lost, for numerous appeals to one's 
 special interests were in constant evidence. Nothing better 
 testifies to the success of the Exposition than just this blending 
 of large public appeal with a message for every individual 
 visitor, whatever his special interests may have been.

 THE fortunes of war brought the Exposition in a year when 
 the world needed, above everything else, to learn the essen- 
 tial unity of human interests and the futility of all but con- 
 structive co-operation among nations. The Exposition has done 
 much to teach this lesson to men of all countries.

 grounds, the architecture of the buildings, the exhibits therein 
 contained and the magnitude of the whole undertaking. I con- 
 sider that it has been a wonderful object lesson in demonstrating 
 so forcibly what all ought to realize, namely, that service to 
 others, progress in education, the pursuit of the peaceful arts, 
 strides in invention and the development of manufactures, all of 
 which make for peace, bring to any country advantages vastly 
 superior to those which can be attained through turmoil and 
 
 war.

 than by the assembling together of the latest accomplishments 
 in all these lines for the examination and study of the thousands 
 upon thousands of persons who have thronged the buildings. In- 
 cidentally, all of these people have acquired a much broader 
 knowledge of the growth and development, as well as the mag-

 must necessarily travel to reach the Exposition.

 to draw the widely separated sections of our vast country into 
 the bonds of a common brotherhood. What was true of the 
 United States was equally true of the nations represented there.

 the industrial spirit of the entire world by a peaceful coming 
 together of representatives of all nations, with tributes to edu- 
 cation and thrift, in spite of the fact that many of these nations 
 are today engaged in the most terrific military conflict the 
 world has ever known. It means the ultimate triumph 'of edu- 
 cation and industry in establishing permanent peaceful inter- 
 national relations. The very fact that the nations of the world 
 in such a critical moment have brought together, in this concrete 
 material fashion, the accomplishments of educational institu- 
 tions and industrial organizations, will leave a lasting impres- 
 sion on young and old and will stimulate further progress in 
 these essential factors, indispensable to a higher type of inter-

 to internationalism, one of the dreams of all thinking men.

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition answered fully 
 in its exhibits, grounds, buildings, and in its art, music, edu- 
 cational and scientific gatherings every question relating to 
 the progress of the human race made in the first decade of the 
 twentieth century. It pointed out in clear illustrations the 
 achievements of the race in the decade to come as regards com- 
 munication and transportation in air, on land and sea; and 
 gave an inspiring glimpse into the coming electrical age, whose 
 power and marvels are but now just opening to view. It typi- 
 fied man's love for peace, patriotism, progress and human ser- 
 vice, at a time when the turmoil and ravages of war cruelly rent 
 the nations. It created a sympathy between and united the 
 East and the West of our own country as no other thing has 
 ever before done. It pointed the way for a world-wide social 
 service, stricter sanitation, purer food, and a better race of men 
 and women, and, with these, a higher and a clearer sense of 
 international understanding. HEBER j GRANT

 is Exposition has been the most beautiful and impressive 
 demonstration of men's faith, courage and ability the world 
 has ever witnessed. It has demonstrated with rare beauty and 
 elegance the magnitude and resourcefulness of our country. 
 May it live long in the memory of the people!

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has, through 
 its offerings of art and its marvels of science, strengthened 
 our people's unselfish wish for the coming of a universal and 
 never-to-be-broken peace, and its exemplification of the world's 
 newly created interest in the industrial, social and physical wel- 
 fare of the common people has alone justified the calling into 
 existence of the Exposition. WM L GRAYSON

 THE cup which the Exposition drains on its closing day is a 
 cosmopolitan one, and in the Exposition garden the ends 
 of the world have met to typify the broader progress for which 
 humanity is striving. The world's congratulations are due it.

 BEGINNING with 1876, our people have held expositions, the 
 first at Philadelphia, then at Chicago, then at St. Louis, 
 and finally at San Francisco. Primarily, each has served to 
 celebrate the anniversary of some great event; fundamentally, 
 they have served to show the useful results obtained by man- 
 kind engaged in peaceful pursuits. I consider it fortunate for 
 the peoples of the earth that, notwithstanding the fearful strife 
 obtaining throughout the Eastern Hemisphere, here in the 
 Western Hemisphere there should be held a great exposition of 
 the products of Peace. EDWARD F. GOLTRA 
 
 Member, Democratic National Committee, 
 St. Louis, Missouri. 
 
 IT WAS the most successful Exposition in our country's history. 
 It was an undertaking conceived and carried out in entire 
 harmony with the spirit of the great achievement it commemo- 
 rated. We of the West are especially pleased at this demonstra- 
 tion of the greatness of our country.

 THE Exposition has seemed to me to be the expression of 
 growing appreciation, in a commercial world, of the art, 
 the achievements and the higher aims existing in its commercial 
 life. It has been an agency of intercommunication through 
 which has been elevated the outlook of representative people 
 upon this newer phase of modern industry, which now must 
 have the encouragement of that appreciation for its continu- 
 ance- C. H. GAUNT

 'T^HE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has brought

 rise high above the geographical divisions that separate them. 
 Out of such a spirit there should come a better understanding

 THE world will be better because the Exposition has been 
 held. By reason of it mutual respect has followed better 
 acquaintance between the nations, and a feeling of enlightened

 peace will supplant the jealousies so often resulting in disastrous

 IN THESE turbulent times, when European civilization appears 
 to be tottering and the statesmen, scientists and industrial 
 leaders of the old world are devoting all their intellectual, 
 physical and natural resources to forward the deadly work of 
 mutual destruction in which their peoples are engaged, it is our 
 privilege to turn our eyes to San Francisco, where Peace and 
 Progress have found their highest form of expression in the 
 Panama-Pacific International Exposition. Here Productive 
 Science, Industry, Commerce and Education unite in one stu- 
 pendous demonstration, unequaled in the history of the world, 
 that our civilization is built upon a firm foundation; that it is 
 not destined to be overthrown, and that " God's in his Heaven

 toward education. Not alone the comprehensiveness of the ex-

 'T^HE Panama-Pacific Exposition has shown the oneness of 
 -*- humanity in industry, manufacture, commerce, art, litera-

 there stood revealed within its gleaming walls that "unity of

 T T TONDERFUL as an index to the twentieth century spirit and

 fording an open sesame to the world's work.

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition which has just 
 closed was the greatest Exposition of the kind in the world, 
 and, no doubt, untold benefits will come to the entire North 
 American continent, and many benefits will be derived by other 
 countries that took part in this great international event. It 
 will be a great blessing to mankind. I doubt very much if those 
 who took part in this Exposition will ever see any other its 
 equal. GEO. w. HAYS

 WHILE the Exposition itself has ended its work, the effect 
 of its education upon the minds of the people of the world 
 will be apparent for many years. Every one has admitted that 
 the Panama-Pacific International Exposition has been the great- 
 est of the world's expositions and has been a wonderful factor 
 in educating the people as to the development and progress of 
 science, art and industry. It has been a great educator, not 
 only to the people in the central and eastern sections of this 
 country, but to many in foreign lands, of the wonderful develop- 
 ment that has transpired in this country in the past and the 
 magnificent possibility for greater development and attainment 
 in the future. L w HILL

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition demonstrated 
 very clearly and conclusively that this great United States 
 of ours has reached an art and architectural development equal 
 to its material development. It has been said and believed both 
 here and abroad, that although the United States was a great 
 country in a business way, it had not yet reached a state of 
 development where it could either appreciate or express the 
 higher ideas of art and architecture, and that for education in 
 these finer things the people of this country would still have to 
 go to Europe. But no other exposition here or abroad has ever 
 displayed so much artistic and architectural loveliness. It has 
 shown what America can do in the way of Art and Architecture. 
 If America will do what it can do, the principles and policies 
 which created the Exposition in all its practicability and artistic 
 beauty will be applied in public buildings in all parts of our 
 country. Civic centers will be built which will perform all 
 their useful functions and be made at the same time objects 
 of beauty which will not only educate our own citizens at home, 
 but attract visitors from afar. Thus the Exposition will prove 
 to have offered an example, and to have set a standard which 
 will be imitated everywhere throughout our land and which will 
 produce innumerable evidences of the higher development of 
 our people. WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST 
 
 New York City, New York. 
 
 E Panama-Pacific International Exposition has accom- 
 plished, and will accomplish, for world betterment and hu- 
 man progress a broader education along artistic, industrial, and 
 civic lines, of the people of this nation, by reason of the educa- 
 tional and artistic buildings and exhibits there offered; a closer 
 harmony between the elements of this and other countries by 
 reason of the closer drawn relationships produced by this Expo- 
 sition, and a broadening of the vision of the average man and 
 woman by reason of the broad humanitarian education afforded 
 by the Exposition.

 THE fact that this great Exposition was held, that it attracted 
 so many millions from all parts of the world who will

 * because of the application of the scientific knowledge of 
 our leading engineers, who have used the harnessed forces of

 our visitors from abroad with the remarkable resourcefulness of 
 our people, their culture, and their appreciation for the things 
 which elevate the human mind and soul. Through the exhibits 
 we have again been reminded of the protection and care which 
 Divine Providence has bestowed upon the great nations of the 
 earth, in that there has been provision made for the sustenance 
 and happiness of our peoples. Through the many convocations

 THE things we see and the things we hear impress us more

 who have seen the Exposition of what is going on in our own

 of the peoples of the world. From this will spring a larger 
 generosity and a closer brotherhood.

 THE influence for universal peace which the Panama-Pacific 
 Exposition has exercised upon the civilized world can 
 never be estimated. At a time when the nations of the old 
 world are at war, and our nearest neighbor, Mexico, is in the 
 throes of a revolution, and when the spirit of unrest pervades 
 every nation of the globe, the Panama-Pacific Exposition in all 
 its glory stands like the angel of peace with wings out-spread, 
 pleading with the world to behold her beauty a beauty which 
 typifies the ideal when all nations shall lay down their arms and 
 unite for the advancement and the development of the univer- 
 sal brotherhood of man. R A HOLLAND

 BY MEANS of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, 
 the useful and the artistic achievements of the nations 
 have been brought together, while the peoples of the world have 
 come as one body to enjoy the works of peace. They have 
 given appreciation, they have received inspiration. They re- 
 alize, as never before, that man's heart must be at rest if he 
 would give in material form a blessing to the world. They con- 
 trast the quiet of America with the turmoil of Europe, and they 
 go from our western coast eager, yearning to bring to pass the 
 prophecy of old: "Nations shall not lift up a sword against 
 nations, neither shall they learn war any more."

 symbolic of man's mastery over himself and the forces and re- 
 sources of the earth. It is the embodiment of all that makes for 
 the betterment of the human race. It serves as an incentive to 
 every man and woman to bring closer the time when each of 
 the peoples of the earth shall be united in co-operative effort for 
 the benefit of all humanity. R B HARPER 
 
 President, Illinois Gas Association, 
 Chicago, Illinois. 
 
 TN THE beauty of its imaginative conception, in the marvelous 
 * perfection of detailed development, the Exposition just clos- 
 ing sets an example to individuals, to states, and to nations, of 
 what possibilities confront human endeavor.

 T FEEL sure that the Exposition will have as a permanent 
 -- result the bringing together of the East and the West of our 
 country in a better understanding and mutual appreciation one 
 
 or the other. JOHN GRIER HIBBEN

 Princeton, New Jersey. 
 
 'T^HE Panama-Pacific Exposition, in its hospitality to all 
 -- nations, typifies the neutrality of the American people in 
 the wars among the foreign powers. More than that, it is a 
 protest against militarism; and in its architecture, its exhibits, 
 and its congresses it is an embodiment of the world's progress 
 in peaceful arts. When peace is declared among the warring 
 nations, America possibly more than any other country will be 
 the storehouse for these ruined and desolate peoples. America's 
 first Exposition celebrated the birth of her liberty; her last 
 Exposition prophesies her encouragement and aid toward those 
 who are struggling to maintain their liberty.

 which we Esperantists believe does exist and is struggling to 
 expression, despite the doings of the past woeful year.

 OF THE countless thousands who have visited the Exposition, 
 none, I think, can have failed to carry away as a lasting 
 memory the impression of its beauties. However casually the 
 visitor may have examined the exhibits, he cannot fail to have 
 grasped the splendors of the greatest exhibit of all the Expo- 
 sition itself. In another sense also the Exposition has been a 
 notable event in world history through its congresses and 
 meetings of all sorts, and its collections, in which the gathered 
 knowledge, ingenuity, and art of all the world have been so 
 abundantly displayed. It seems to me that it has provided 
 a most fitting commemoration of the opening to the world of 
 new routes of human commerce. MYRON T. HERRICK 
 
 Former United States Ambassador to

 THE Exposition has proved to be one of the mile-stones in the 
 progress of the American people.

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition is the highest 
 symbol that could be expressed by this great nation, of 
 what America and her ideals stand for. It shows to the nations 
 of the world now struggling in the throes of a bloody and 
 devastating war that "Peace on earth and good-will toward 
 men" is a far better doctrine to preach and practice than that 
 of war, famine, violent death and extermination of mankind. 
 America has forever desired to be at peace with the world since 
 the day of her birth. How well she has done during the past 
 year and a half of war, the world well knows. The Exposition 
 will go down into history as the symbol of a country that stead- 
 fastly stood for peace under the most trying conditions, when all 
 the world demanded war, knowing that the olive branch of 
 brotherly love is far more potent and greater than the sword.

 THE Exposition sets a new mark for all future demonstra-

 interesting and valuable exhibits. GEO w HOGLAN

 THE vast army of pilgrims who turned their faces to the West 
 in 1915, following in the trail of their ancestors, who were 
 attracted by the gold discovery in 1848, found in the Exposition 
 an attraction to be remembered with delight for years to come. 
 This great achievement bound more tightly the ties of love of 
 the American people. Those whose good fortune it was to 
 attend the Exposition carried back to their homes and their 
 friends the glad echo of their vision; and the Exposition played 
 a great part in uniting any divided interests that may have 
 existed in this glorious land, by bringing together in national 
 harmony the people of the North, South and East and the 
 people of the extreme West. It also has emphasized to the 
 world the importance of the Panama Canal and the achieve- 
 ments to be wrought through its use by this and future 
 generations. E H HARMAN

 THE Exposition has not only advanced the interests of all

 THERE is no doubt or question in the mind of every American 
 as to all that has been accomplished by the existence of 
 this great Exposition. It has epitomized Peace and Progress, 
 has typified Present Day Civilization, and has truly represented 
 the best type of real Internationalism. All sections of our own 
 country have forgotten Sectionalism have united to make it 
 the wonderful success it is. The foreign nations represented 
 have shown broad, liberal and far-reaching policy and fore- 
 sight; and America, through this greatest of Expositions, should 
 more strongly than ever before cement all existing friendly and 
 commercial alliances. May it remain a lasting monument to 
 all it set forth to accomplish ! H A JOHNSON

 of the respective nations. This should serve the cause of human

 of gratification to those nations who have done well, and an in-

 which have not made quite so much advancement.

 abundance that could be made to flow forth from the resources of 
 this great nation, thereby filling the home with light, and the 
 heart with joy, of every American citizen. The Exposition 
 symbolizes a nation where the power of thinking and the ex- 
 pansion of knowledge have attained a high standard. Where 
 these powers exist, prosperity and virtue are sure to follow.

 E Panama-Pacific International Exposition has been of 
 untold value to the world in this day of enmity and strife. 
 It has given rewards for constructive effort; it has registered the 
 world's upward movement; it has fostered new ideas; it has 
 glorified the beautiful. It has laid the emphasis on labor, not 
 idleness; on intellect, not passion; on love, not hate; on union, 
 not dissension. As its lessons sink into our hearts and its story 
 becomes a treasured memory, we shall see its true significance 
 as a call to universal service and universal brotherhood.

 TT is my sincere belief that the exploitation of human endeavor 
 has been brought to its highest pinnacle in this magnificent 
 Exposition, which has been such a pronounced success. I am 
 confident that a better understanding in an industrial, moral 
 and intellectual way will accrue to the world-wide Brotherhood 
 of Man, together with closer relations which will tend to cement 
 the different nations to each other for a still greater achieve- 
 ment.

 AMONG the first of the Educators of the new Peace stands the 
 Panama-Pacific International Exposition. Dedicated to 
 embody the world's progress in peaceful arts, it has stimulated 
 a feeling of international union rarely manifest in the world 
 today. The American spirit of Peaceful Conquest overcame 
 Nature to build a Canal, and built an Exposition, the embodi- 
 ment of world progress in the peaceful arts. May this spirit, 
 thus manifested, successfully champion such causes as shall 
 preserve Peace and Brotherhood on the Earth!

 THE magnificent and matchless Exposition has been de- 
 scribed as a brilliant commemoration of America's greatest 
 gift to civilization, the Panama Canal. I trust I shall not be 
 deemed lacking in appreciation of or reverence for that greatest 
 physical achievement in history if I dare suggest that this epoch- 
 marking Exposition has fulfilled an infinitely higher and grander 
 purpose by idealizing the "world peace, world service and world 
 patriotism" for which it has stood, and exerting a world-wide 
 and enduring influence for the betterment of mankind.

 HT^HE Panama-Pacific International Exposition, by bringing 
 -- out the world's highest achievements of science, art, and 
 social service, has made a notable contribution to that new 
 internationalism which must be founded upon international re- 
 spect and self-respect. The long march from tribal isolation 
 and hatred of the stranger to the point where the best achieve- 
 ments of all civilizations are blended in a beautiful and harmo- 
 nious display, is most fittingly marked by this splendid mile-stone. 
 The emphasis placed upon the needs of the child, its demand 
 upon civilization to recognize its right to be well-born, to be 
 educated, to be protected from the tooth ahd claw of com- 
 mercialism, to be trained in civic duty and in reverence for the 
 culture and achievements of all races, is a distinctive feature 
 of this Exposition.

 taking part together in a celebration of the triumphs of peace. 
 It has been a most persuasive argument for, as well as an illus-

 than its appeal to the sense of beauty and to the imagination of 
 all who have been fortunate enough to come under its influence.

 lesson of architectural beauty it has taught to millions of Amer-

 apparent in the more general adoption of correct principles and 
 a higher standard in the construction of buildings of every 
 nature. Architecture is but one branch of art, even if it is the 
 most important branch; and I believe the Expositon is likely 
 to result in a better appreciation of and a higher regard for all 
 forms of art. MERRILL MOORES

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition was fathered 
 by Faith, mothered by Hope, baptized by Charity, clothed 
 with dreams, cradled in visions. Grown to glorious manhood, 
 it preached the gospel of good-will to a warring world, and by 
 its lessons filled the souls of countless thousands with sweetness

 memory for those who made and those who saw it. May that 
 memory brighten and sweeten with age!

 I WAS impressed, first, with the emphasis placed on the things 
 that make for human betterment rather than destruction 
 upon educational, humanitarian welfare schemes, rather than 
 upon warlike instruments and devices. These, while there, 
 occupied a subordinate place. In the second place, I was im- 
 pressed with the appeals for a larger patriotism. The emphasis 
 was laid not so much on nationalism as on internationalism, 
 while the phrase "World Patriotism" was frequently heard. 
 I felt that the Exposition was a potent influence, and will be, 
 in lifting the world into a better life and a true brotherhood.

 IN ALL ages, contacts of peoples have been the chief contributing 
 factor in the evolution and diffusion of civilization. As long 
 as there was no way of bringing distant parts of the earth near, 
 progress was slow. By immeasurably shortening trade and 
 travel routes, the Panama Canal has therefore removed a 
 mighty obstacle to world progress. By causing all nations to 
 assemble at one time and place, an international exposition 
 likewise contributes in its way largely to the same result. The 
 Panama-Pacific International Exposition thus aptly symbolizes 
 the quintessence of twentieth century civilization.

 shown how much they are at one in the beneficent pursuits of 
 peace. It has revealed the growing importance of science in the

 training of the highest and most thorough kind for a nation 
 that is determined not to fall behind.

 advancement as that of the Panama-Pacific Exposition, that 
 represent in one grand unity of progress in art, manufacture 
 and commerce, the Peoples of the World.

 E Panama-Pacific International Exposition was the most 
 pleasing and satisfactory panorama of the progress and 
 development of mankind. It was a triumph in human en- 
 deavor, ranking with the noted achievements of the present age. 
 It was a prophecy of universal acquaintanceship, unity and 
 co-operation, by which Justice shall dwell in the wilderness and 
 Righteousness in the fruitful field; and the work of that Right- 
 eousness shall be Peace and Confidence forever.

fthe Exposition * San Francisco, 1915 
 
 THE Panama-Pacific Exposition has been one of the notable 
 achievements of constructive peaceful activity in 1915. No 
 one can estimate at this time what effect the Exposition will 
 have upon the thought and work of America and of the other 
 nations that participated in making it a success. It has brought 
 closer the nations of the Western World. It has made more 
 intimate the acquaintance of the widely separated sections of 
 the United States. It has stimulated hundreds of thousands 
 with new ideas and a new understanding of the achievements 
 and promises of this country. It has impressed upon many 
 people of many nations the common needs, aspirations and 
 qualities of mankind the world over. The whole world has been 
 bettered by the devotion of vast energy, enthusiasm and imagi- 
 nation to the celebration of the work of peace, at a time when 
 so much energy of life and imagination of mankind is devoted 
 to the destructive aims of war. JOHN PURRO Y MITCHELL

 THE State University of Iowa congratulates the Nation on a

 enterprise glorious. THOMAS H. MACBRIDE 
 
 President, State University of Iowa,

 THE Panama-Pacific Exposition was a glorious revelation of 
 America to the world. It was also a revelation of America 
 to herself. It was especially stimulating to those of us in the 
 East who were attracted to the far West. It stimulated the 
 unity of America amidst its variety, and above all it visualized 
 in beauty not only America's achievements, but especially its 
 unlimited future. It gave a vision of the possibilities of the 
 great democratic civilization we are building in this country.

 to be the last? I can think of but one greater event in which 
 the people of the world, I hope, may be called upon to cele-

 dedicated to intelligence and enlightenment. Surely from so 
 wondrous a forum, and dedicated to these gifts of God, there is

 ONE of the most important accomplishments of the Panama- 
 Pacific International Exposition in its effect on human 
 betterment and world progress is the turning of the eyes and 
 footsteps of the world toward one central point. It has created 
 travel. The broadening effect of travel creates tolerance, and 
 tolerance of others inevitably affects others' attitude toward us. 
 No quality will make as much for universal progress, peace and 
 happiness as tolerance, and the Exposition has helped create it.

 not be forgotten, but will last in our memories as a thing of 
 beauty and an advanced step in human progress.

 E Exposition was a perfect flower. Its fragrance lingers, 
 and will, while memory lasts and men are grateful. It has 
 helped the world to become acquainted with itself. It was a 
 revelation of the spirit and genius of many tribes and nations, 
 a lesson in the brotherhood in the essential neighborliness of 
 all mankind, which none who saw it, or from afar felt it, can 
 forget. It has passed away, but it was planned that it should 
 pass, built that it should be torn down, gathered that it should 
 be scattered; but the creation after all is permanent. It has 
 passed only out of the gates in order to make the whole 
 world into an exposition of the things for which that institution 
 stood and which it has inspired. Its material features have 
 passed, but not into death. They are buried like seeds, to sprout 
 again the seeds of this perfect flower in every country in the 
 world, to grow up in the lives of men, in better houses, better 
 governments, better industry, better art, better life, better am- 
 bitions, better everything. PETER CLARK MACFARLANE

 and wisdom assembled in such a limited space or time. The 
 countless thousands who have visited the Fair will bring to 
 their homes in this and other lands inspiration and education, 
 the benefits of which to humanity may well be said to be im-

 victories of peace, shown to the nations at the very time when 
 a great, destructive, unexampled European war was in its 
 furious progress, a war constituting the crime of all the centuries, 
 has been an illustration noble enough to bring shame to that 
 black era of colossal folly, sin and carnage, and by the striking

 effect the Panama-Pacific Exposition surpassed all those pre-

 and development of our country than the ability to have 
 on our western slope an Exposition of such unparalleled beauty 
 and charm within less than 150 years from the time when the 
 same section was an undeveloped world. Surely the example 
 thus set and the broad and world-patriotic sentiment which has 
 been always in evidence cannot but inspire and help on the 
 great work of international betterment.

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has undoubt-

 peoples of the North, East, South and West together and mak-

 make up the greatest nation of the earth. This accomplishment 
 is worth more to our country than any trade expansion or any

 Canal was well called the marriage of the Great Waters the 
 blending of those seas whose waves lap the continents of the 
 world. Beside the Golden Gate all peoples and all races have 
 met in the celebration of these nuptials : brother builders, brother 
 creators, aiding each other toward the Dawn. The rumble of 
 battle cannot drown the Voice which speaks from out these 
 temples of art and commerce and industry: "God hath made 
 of one blood all nations of men." HENRY M PINDELL

 E Panama-Pacific International Exposition has given more

 'T^HE Panama-Pacific International Exposition was a thing of 
 -- beauty, whose joy and fragrance will long remain with all 
 who witnessed it. The great European war, with its dreadful 
 destruction of life and property and its entailment of debts and 
 sorrow upon future generations, caused this wonderful exhibi- 
 tion to stand out the more grandly as illustrative of human 
 genius and peaceful industry. It is difficult to estimate the 
 value of such an exhibition upon the minds of those who visited 
 it. We may be sure that it has preached an eloquent sermon to 
 the multitudes from all lands who enjoyed its privileges. Let us 
 hope that the sermon will not soon be lost, and that our great 
 nation may avoid that spirit of "Over Seas Commercialism and 
 Territorial Hunger" which has brought such distress to our 
 kinsmen on the other side of the world.

 art; to hold out the hand of fellowship and bid all races and

 equal privilege in a land of opportunity is an enduring monu-

 devoted to the one great program, the extension of truth, the 
 illumination of minds long darkened by oppression, the sup-

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has been the 
 one ideal meeting place for the nations; a clearing house of 
 good feeling for the world. Workers in the arts, in the sciences, 
 in the industries, have met on common ground, have partaken 
 of each other's spirit, have grown together in all that tends to 
 the world's advancement. In this year of world strife and sor- 
 row, such a place and opportunity is doubly blessed.

 IN LOOKING down the corridors of time, I feel confident that 
 no former Exposition has equaled the Panama-Pacific Inter- 
 national Exposition in beauty of design, artistic coloring, novel 
 lighting effects, and that irresistible glamour born of genius in 
 construction. It will remain in the memory of those who were 
 fortunate enough to study it, an everlasting monument to 
 American brains and American industry.

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition typifies the 
 very highest attainment of culture and human civiliza- 
 tion. It brilliantly displays in friendly rivalry the marvelous 
 arts, inventions and achievements of all nations, thus illuminat- 
 ing and bettering the minds of countless millions. It commemo- 
 rates and dedicates to mankind the opening of the Panama 
 Canal, the most stupendous monument ever erected by man to 
 the cause of peace, prosperity and good-will in the history of all 
 the world. The Panama Canal is the greatest thing that has 
 happened since Noah left the Ark.

 commemorated the perseverance, energy and enterprise of the

 THAT which makes for a better understanding among all

 must inevitably become a strong factor in bringing about that

 As THE happiness and welfare of the individual is the aim and 
 object of all good government, so the promotion and en- 
 couragement of cordial commercial relationships, interstate and 
 international, not only bring the individuals together in true 
 harmonious and peaceful rivalry, but also confer on communi- 
 ties and nationalities the proud honor of a closer contact with 
 each other, without which a greater friendship is impossible; 
 and this must inevitably result in a growing regard for others, 
 which will tend in no small measure to herald the coming of 
 that International Union which will have a permanent and 
 prosperous Peace for its Universal Emblem.

 and the sentiment I would express, is the wonder left in the

 THE Exposition's existence and activities have constantly 
 served to remind the nations of the permanent value of 
 our civilization. It has held aloft the banners of industry, 
 applied science, education, art, and humanitarianism. Further- 
 more, it has been a great boon to the people of the United States, 
 for it offered a specific inducement to people east of the Missis-

 American resources and life. ALBERT SHAW

 E Panama-Pacific International Exposition has introduced

 made the trip West, attracted chiefly by the great Exposition, 
 have not only witnessed one of the greatest creations of its kind 
 ever seen in the world, in the magnificence and beauty of the 
 Exposition itself, but have come to learn in a personal first-hand 
 way something of the beauty and grandeur of our great Ameri-

 this respect alone the Exposition has been of inestimable worth.

 'T^HE Panama-Pacific International Exposition was the first 
 -*- World's Fair to classify Insurance under the head of Social 
 Economy, to visualize its world-wide workings through rep- 
 resentative exhibits, and to gather its workers and allies into 
 a World's Insurance Congress: thus becoming the first authori- 
 tative public body to direct the eyes of the world to the preg- 
 nant facts that Insurance is a social process even more vitally 
 than it is a commercial process, and that it in particular ex- 
 emplifies today, in practical form and on a world-wide scale, 
 the essence of that true democracy under whose ultimate sway 
 individual manhood will everywhere be united to achieve col- 
 lective efficiency, and sovereign nations will all be united to 
 insure the reign of peaceful civilization.

 AT A time when the minds of the peoples of the world 
 have been centered upon war and its attendant misery, 
 the Panama-Pacific International Exposition has turned the 
 thoughts of many to the accomplishment of peace and civiliza- 
 tion. The Exposition has brought people from the East to the 
 West, where they have been astonished at the wonderful prog- 
 ress which their brothers in the West have made toward the 
 solution of the tremendous problems which are confronting 
 them. As a result of this better acquaintanceship we may look 
 for more intelligent co-operation of East and West, not only in 
 the development of our Union, but in the accomplishment of 
 our mission in the interest of human brotherhood in the period 
 which must follow these years of inhuman carnage.

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition originated in 
 the minds of men as the noblest indication of World's 
 peace among the civilized nations. It was undertaken as a 
 service to humanity by showing the beneficent results of gra- 
 cious amity and glorious brotherhood. It was initiated as a 
 token, from the Great Republic, of the respect and esteem for 
 one another that should be entertained by all races. It was 
 conducted as an agency of good-will now and hereafter and of 
 the promise of the great future for the happiness, the progress 
 and the prosperity of all mankind. It was closed with a bene- 
 diction from on high that civilization may increase its efficiency, 
 manliness may establish its grandeur and that love for fellow 
 men may control now and always all the people of the earth.

 THE Exposition marks an epoch in world progress surpassing 
 any in all the ages past. Of the hundreds of thousands in 
 attendance not one perhaps failed to contrast in his mind the 
 difference between conditions in the United States and in Eu- 
 rope, and to register a vow that his services would be given to 
 the propagation of international fraternity, to the end that the 
 coming together of nationalists as friendly rivals in the pursuits 
 of peace may take the place of armed contests for spotlight 
 positions as the domineering force among civilized nations. De- 
 spite prevailing conditions, the Exposition has given a tremen- 
 dous impetus to human betterment, and this fact will become 
 more apparent with the passing years.

 OF THE great expositions of the world during the past twenty-

 Panama-Pacific Exposition to the people of this and other 
 countries can hardly be estimated. It seems to me that its

 great Exposition, like others which have been held, 
 served the country in many ways, but to a much greater 
 extent than any other it caused the people to realize the great-

 magnificent exhibits in the buildings, but by causing people to 
 see, in going to San Francisco, the greatest exhibit of all their 
 country. Surely every man, woman and child who traveled 
 across the continent to the Exposition, or went by the Panama 
 Canal, was made a better American.

 ONE feature alone of the Panama-Pacific International Ex- 
 position should result in immeasurable value to the whole 
 world. The recognition and exposition of the benefits to the 
 world of one of humanity's most highly developed institutions 
 for the relief of the distressed and the lessons taught of the mar- 
 velous results of scientific co-operation in the form of insurance 
 should lead the people of all nations to recognize the value of a 
 world-wide patriotism rather than love for one's own country 
 alone; a patriotism and a brotherhood so universal and so sen- 
 sible that all nations will stand ready to aid every other nation 
 to attain its highest possible development and to give freely of 
 its best in fair exchange for the best of all other nations. It 
 should lead to universal recognition of the value of gaining by 
 giving, and that destruction of one injures all. Then may fear 
 and hatred between nations be turned to friendly co-operation 
 for mutual betterment, and senseless destruction cease.

 THE triumphant close of the Panama-Pacific International

 a time marred by the hideous record of the perversion of vast 
 intellectual and material power and superb physical courage 
 to the promotion of every form of ruin, savage ferocity, and 
 death, the splendid story of the Exposition will stand out 
 white and clear, with its testimony that sanity, the ideals of 
 beauty and the beneficent application of man's best powers and

 gether in friendly rivalry exemplifying their progress in the 
 sciences, arts and industries, performed a mighty work for peace. 
 It constitutes a force that will in the future influence the great 
 evolutionary process by which humanity will gradually achieve 
 a higher civilization and human betterment, and speed the day 
 of universal peace and good-will among men.

 TT WAS my good fortune to visit the Exposition, to inspect the 
 * various exhibits, and to breathe the air of inspiration, for 
 it was not the ordinary atmosphere that greeted the visitor 
 once he arrived on the Exposition grounds. The thought 
 occurred to me then, as I watched the people of the various 
 nations now at war, everywhere smilingly greeting each other, 
 that if their brothers across the seas could have seen them and 
 feasted their eyes upon this wonderfully beautiful Fair, one of 
 the greatest triumphs of the creative genius of man, and sym- 
 bolizing the accomplishments of peace, their abhorrence 
 for war would have been so great that the titanic conflict 
 in Europe would have been most abruptly terminated. It was 
 a great Exposition, the memory of which will grow brighter as 
 years go by, especially coming as it did at a time when Europe 
 was contributing the most awful chapter to its "Biography of 
 Nations." A D SOMMERS

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition has brought 
 the people of the nations who have taken part into closer 
 friendship, and will go a great way in bringing the nations of 
 the world at peace with each other. In the next place, it will 
 bring more business to the United States for the years to come, 
 as the people of the other nations will find that the United 
 States can supply all of their needs.

 THE Panama-Pacific International Exposition is an achieve- 
 ment of phenomenal proportions. It reveals the varied 
 and inexhaustible resources of our country, its ability to stand 
 alone if necessary, the unity of all its citizens and their devo- 
 tion to the principles of our national constitution. The history 
 of the Exposition is a fine proof of our national patriotism.

 TTTHAT this Exposition has been able to accomplish in the

 a far-reaching effect. It has achieved success in making America

 T JOIN in the toast offered to the greatest Exposition the world 
 ! has ever seen, because its Spirit has been the advancement 
 of peace, intelligence and education. The Soul of the Fair has 
 been Progress, not alone in material things but in those finer 
 and grander attributes which make for the betterment of 
 humanity. As the thrift movement goes on year after year we 
 shall never lose sight of the fact that its great inspiration came 
 from the benign influences of the Panama-Pacific International

 I BELIEVE that the Panama-Pacific International Exposition 
 in bringing together the commercial and educational in- 
 terests of so many great nations in such a fraternal spirit, and in 
 providing for the people of these nations the opportunity of 
 actually seeing their own, as well as the world's progress, will 
 make of us, individually, better, bigger men, women and citi- 
 zens, and collectively, better, broader, friendlier nations.

 LAYING aside the contemplation of the accomplishments of 
 the Exposition, which were the immediate aim of the 
 undertaking, it is gratifying to dwell for a moment on the really 
 great thing it has done. The feeble, unheeded campaign of 
 those who recognize in the great West an unequaled field for 
 the sightseer, was lifted by this great Fair from a common ap- 
 peal to the dignity of a compelling invitation. Never again will 
 the western man by reason of his enthusiasm over western possi- 
 bilities and western scenery be characterized by his eastern 
 brother as "the frenzied optimist." Today there are falling 
 from the lips of hundreds of thousands of people all over this 
 broad land, words of praise of American natural wonders and 
 scenery, and tomorrow and forever the tourist caravan will 
 move westward. We regard the Panama-Pacific International 
 Exposition as the most beneficial thing that ever occurred in 
 promoting the interests of the West and of our State.

 TF THE Panama-Pacific Exposition can stimulate the principle

 Speaking only as an artist and, frankly, without the range of

 for the color, the significance and lyrical beauty of the Expo-

 THE influences wielded through the Exposition, and the in- 
 spirations stimulated by it, are difficult to measure or 
 anticipate. It undoubtedly established firmer union and in- 
 spired better and more devoted citizenship. It appealed to the 
 patriotism of all American visitors, and inculcated a love of the 
 beautiful and the chaste. It served to cement understandings 
 and foster closer relationships with foreign nations, and a mu- 
 tual respect and good-will. c H SCHLACKS

 this direction, preceded by the remarkable results attained by 
 it, be crowned with complete success!

 MAY the larger world outlook so fittingly emphasized by the 
 Panama-Pacific International Exposition and the con- 
 gresses held under its auspices be realized by all nations partici- 
 pating therein! May the world soon learn that the injunctions 
 to the individual "to love his neighbor as himself" and "to 
 do unto others as he would be done by" apply with equal force 
 to communities and peoples! If every nation will follow the 
 practice of putting itself in the other nation's place when reach- 
 ing diplomatic conclusions, war and its disastrous consequences 
 will cease and world-wide peace with its attendant blessings 
 will be maintained. If the bringing together by the National 
 Education Association of representatives from thirty-one coun- 
 tries in an international congress on education helps in any way 
 to secure a realization of this desired end, it must be regarded 
 as a success. D w SPRINGER

 WHILE there are many good results from the Exposition, 
 under the present world-war in Europe, the most im- 
 pressive lesson of the Exposition to me is the great good that

 advances. Even the smallest and weakest nation can contribute 
 to the welfare of all. JOSEPH SWAIN

 WHATEVER exercises a potent influence towards making a 
 nation out of this vast territory and its population drawn 
 from many lands and races, passes into history as a step in na- 
 tional and in international progress. The Exposition has earned 
 this place in history. The great achievement of linking the 
 Pacific Slope with the East by telephone, which has been asso- 
 ciated with and has been a part of the Exposition, has made 
 each city, village and hamlet a center of the nation. Commer- 
 cial and social nationalism is therefore in process of achieve- 
 ment. Broad nationalism calls also for a national ideal and a 
 national honor. When some considerable measure of these 
 more elusive components of true nationalism has become ours, 
 the influence of this nation for the peace and welfare of the 
 world will be irresistible. H B THAYER

 all obstacles, however great, in the successful accomplishment 
 of the endeavor to produce and display to the world the most 
 artistically beautiful and educationally beneficial Exposition

 of peace over war. It epitomizes what these United States

 people of all races, all creeds, all conditions to live and work 
 together in peace, comity and happiness. We are rephrasing

 only sorrow and defeat." RODMAN WANAMAKER

 THE Exposition has been great, not simply because it has

 succeeded in diffusing, through the various congresses which 
 were held, a general knowledge of the sociological conditions 
 under which those developments have taken place in the dif-

 be extremely beneficial in advancing the cause of human bet-

 I AM of the opinion that all that was fine, noble and inspiring 
 in American life found expression in the Panama-Pacific 
 International Exposition. The undertaking itself stands to me 
 as a proof that the indomitable spirit of our fathers still persists 
 in the land, providing courage for every contingency. Aside 
 from this there may be mentioned the Exposition's contribu- 
 tion to the art and beauty of the world. By reason of our 
 amazing progress in industry, invention and the sciences, we 
 have been maligned by less virile peoples as "dollar mad." The 
 Panama-Pacific is America's answer to the slander, for the 
 sheer wonder of it attests our devotion to the ideal, our love 
 of the dream, and our capacity for making the dream come 
 true. My one regret is that the whole miracle of it could not 
 have been preserved for our future joy and inspiration.
