Mr. Fuoss, ex-serviceman and well known Central Pennsylvania orator and writer, stressed Spiritual values reminding his bearers that "the American Con-Jtttistfon literally breathed into itself the Spiritual qualities which constitutes the essence of a will snd determination not alone to live bat to as* that ►others are likewise permitted to also live." The address waa an earnest exposition, crowded with s wealth of salient truths given in s challenging manner. At the outset, Mr. Fuoss gave a brief histories! resume of the historic document he characterized as "the Magna Carta of American liberties." So sacred is this Constitution, he said, "that no one man or men, no one group or groups, can. truthfully say they cherish it more than any one of the others, because R ta a typically American document, breathing into itself ithe will and determination of a people to expand, de- Hrelop and enlarge not alone in a material and cultural sense hut, primarily, in a Spiritual sense." The speaker suggested an appropriate theme for his study; la other words, "He Knew In Whom He Had Believed." Hs quoted from Second Timothy wherein it said, "I have fought a good fight; I have finished my course; I have kept the faith." Touching of tbe inherent spiritual values of the American Constitution, he traced the very preamble of thst docu- iacpng great stress an. the big great atress am the gj-ound*. of Im wonts tt*OW^end: **T*i-eciel church services wflf "People." These, he said, are the same and they relate to the essential truth that "the people ana the Government, and that the Government ia made to represent the people, in whose welfare the Constitution was prepared." "Just now," he recited, " the country ia filled with so-called defenders of this Constitution, Recently, its anniversary saw more of them than usual. The question rthen arises ia it in danger and if ao la danger of what and of whom? It tt my candid belief that if this sacred document ia in danger it is not so endangered by those who sre now trying to win justice and security for the Amldrfcan people under it; rather it is not hi' danger from those who would use it to perpetuate old wrongs and' cloak privilege with legal sanctity?" The speaker here asserted that, tn his belief, the real defenders of <the sacred document are those men who for 147 years have kept it alive by adapting ite very essential principles to the changing needs of the Republic. Among these, he said, have been such as George Washington who, the speaker assert ed, wae ready to admit imperfections and pointed .to 'the door for future amendments and alterations Ba needed from time to time*". Mr. 'Fuoss then quoted 'from Chief Justice Marshall who, he aaid, held it would have been unwise far the fathers to "provide immutable rules for exigencies which, if forseen at all, must have been forseen dimly, and which can be best provided for as they occur." Reading from the writings of Mr. Justice Brewer, the speaker quoted that learned authority ae having aaJi: "Constitutional provisions do not change, but their operation extends to new matters as ths modes of business sad the habits of life of people vary from each succeeding generation.** Further proof of this .contention, he emphatically asserted, is found in the Works af (such leah-ned authorities se Justices Holmes, Brandeis and Cardoso. It was Justice Holmes, hs reminded, who aaid that the "American Constitution k aa experiment, every year, if not every day, we have to wager oar salvation upon some prophesy baaed upon imperfect knowledge." To Justice Brandeis was ascribed tb* asser- tion "that there must be power m ths State and Nation to remold through experimentation, our economic practices and institutions, to OLD HOME WEEK PLANS COMMITTEES ARE SHAPING THE EVENTS From plans now about matured there la promised to be one of the biggest and most outstanding events in the hiatory of Bellwood in the celebration' of Old Home Week, beginning Thursday, Ott 11 and continuing for four dsys, including religious set rices in the churches on Sunday.

He was also assured that the motion pictures of wild life would be sent for the occasion. The Dog Show committee has completed their plans and entries (alr-6 now being regfelUlredi.

The exposition closed with an appeal for "the living lives m such manner as will insure not alone the preservation of that which in sacred in a sense of Government bat an application of the very essence within that which, when Understood and applied; wjll right social wrongs and wipe out too prevalent abuses heaped upon the weak snd defenseless."
