Cathohc order of more than 20000 Nuns have touched and in some manner bene fited the lives of nulhons without regard to the ndivlduals religious beliefs They have admin istered tt- the sick the needy and the dis- tressed. They have contributed immeasurably tc the worlds happiness and progress through teaching. All of this without personal monetary reward. For seventy-one years they have per- formed this type of unselfish service in Joplin through schools and through St. John s hospital. There is no way of adequately compensating the Sisters of Mercy for that kind of service to God and His mortals. But this community and hundreds of rthers are grateful and will hope that the Sisters of Mercy continue to serve as long as civilization stands.

It has met the needs of the eighteenth cen- tury, the nineteenth century, and it is now meeting the needs of the twentieth century. Its greatness comes from the ancient principles of English law: WA man's home is his cas- t1e.n That he as an individual was created by God a free man and the spirit of liberty was endowed in every man by God If the storms and rains of govern ment were allowed to tear this temple of liberty asunder, then indeed there would be no law, no freedom, no America For America and her spirit of democracy stands as a beacon light atop this Temple of Liberty, our Constitution It is in this Constitution, that the problems and interests of our nation are weighed I is here that leaders seek to understand the minds of men Liberty is spelled on its walls, telling all the rights and duties of the American citizens Here within is explained to all men that the basic principles and purpose of the Constitution is to protect individual rights The Constitution is the ablest of written guides to a government of law that the world has yet known Its greatness lies partly in the wisdom of the structure it erected, but it lies still more largely in the spirit and purpose which infuse its practical provision EIR JL -4...-L IDG FRAECKILLS MILL INF 1201 Wall MA 3 3677 s. - Tfz, v1 ir:--1!

The first Americans went to war to win peace. They declared that they exhausted every possible means to pursuade 8 tyrannical ruler to give them peace, for liberty is the essence of peace. Yes, it was with a great bal- ance and proportion that a small group of souls, our forefathers, formed a new foundation for a strong national government And they made it chrystal clear that all men are equal in the sight of God and equal under law They made it so chrystal clear that no man could doubt that all men are endowed by their Creator by cer tain inalienable rights which means that no agency, short of death, can take these rights from them Yes, my friends, there is no power on earth strong enough to deprive men of the rights God has given him For the windows and the doors of this Temple of Liberty, our Constitution, which let in the free air of democracy are the guarantees which give to each individual of America life, liberty, and the pursuit of happi ness There is no doubt that our Constitution is the security of our liberty, the guarantor of our rights If it is to be changed, it provides the method of the change We the people, and no one person, no one group have the right to change it under due pro C058 of law For our government is a government of laws, not of men The truth of the human per son is God's truth The first Americans in looking for man, found first God then they found man And on man, on the human his rights, +hey built a Temple of Liberty, oar Constitution . t . 5 .
