COOLIDGE’S WARNING.
MATERIAL PROSPERITY . DECEPTIVE. . Philadelphia, July 5. In an address at the Sesquicentennral Exposition commemorating the 150 th' anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, President Coolidge on Monday said : “We live in an age of science with an' abounding accumulation of material things. These were not created by our Declaration: the Declaration created them. Things of the spirit come first. Unless we cling to that, all our material prosperity, overwhelming though it may appear, will turn to a barren sceptre in our grasp. If we are to maintain the great heritage e queathed to us, we must be likeminded as our fathers, who created it. We must not sink into pagan materialism.”
