AMERICANISM, A WAY OF LIVING (Prise-winning Essay) We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. — Declaration of Independence. When, in 1776, these words gave birth to a new nation, a new element in human lives was created. This element was Americanism. For the first time since creation, a people was set free, that each person might create for himself the life he wanted to live. For the first time each recognised and exercised his right as a human being and for the first time, Americans were born. With this birth of a nation all the foreign elements on the new continent before so predominant, were assimilated and made components of this new force. A new form of .he English language took root in the country. New ideas and modes of living were created to best fit the Union. Then, while the country was still in its infancy, the whole world became upset and the fates of entire nations were at stake. In these troubled, war-torn times, patriot- ism and support of one ' s country seemed a fundamental in retaining the balance of civilisation. But through the strife of those many years have come a people, bring- ing with them their country and its ideals. They are Americans and they are prac- ticing Americanism. Americanism is not only patriotism; it is a way of living. To us, Americanism means a life in which no alien gods may flourish; in which we live, breathe, think, and do according to our own laws, and not the will of a dictator. This life is made possible by a reverence for the best which life holds, and a means of attaining the best. To each of us is taught the difference between church and state, between state and individualism, and between individualism and self. To each of us is pointed out our inalienable rights as citizens of the United States, and we are encouraged to ex- ercise these rights. Americanism is for not only the natural born but also the naturalised citisen. From the time an immigrant steps on American shore to the time he is laid in his American grave he is an American. He stands side by side with his neighbor, shar- ing all national rights. Theodore Roosevelt explains this in his statement, ' Ameri- canism is a question of spirit, convictions, and purpose, not of creed or birthplace. Synonymous with Americanism is success — success in living a life from which the bitter anguishes of other isms are eliminated; success in the world ' s society, for the greatest honor to be borne is the title of an American. But let us look into the future. There rests on the shoulders of American youth the fate of the world of tomorrow. It is they who must equal and raise the standards of living. It is they who must create and present to all humanity an even more per- fect America. Perhaps their creation will do away with hyphenated Americans. Perhaps for them there will be no persons who think or act as German -Americans; French-Americans, of English-Americans Perhaps individualism will be the key note to their success. Each generation interprets Americanism to suit its own needs. With each genera- tion new problems to be coped with are introduced; new ideals to be attained are in- troduced. But come what will, America and its army of patriots marches on toward the highest standard, bearing as its supreme law the creed of Americanism. — Meredith Holsinger. [Page 24]
