Laus Deo...
We have a need for patriotic people of integrity, strength, and honor, both men and women, to step up to the plate at the present time.
Your country needs you, now.
GOD, GIVE US MEN!
God, give us men! A time like this demandsStrong minds, great hearts, true faith and ready hands;
Men whom the lust of office does not kill;
Men whom the spoils of office can not buy;
Men who possess opinions and a will;
Men who have honor; men who will not lie;
Men who can stand before a demagogue
And damn his treacherous flatteries without winking!
Tall men, sun-crowned, who live above the fog
In public duty, and in private thinking;
For while the rabble, with their thumb-worn creeds,
Their large professions and their little deeds,
Mingle in selfish strife, lo! Freedom weeps,
Wrong rules the land and waiting Justice sleeps.
Josiah Gilbert Holland (1819-1881) from “Wanted” written in 1872
Laus Deo
