Excerpt from Nationalizing America The battle-axe of the Great War has gashed the tree of life of all the nations, and although time may heal the wound, the scar will never be obliterated, for the hurt has penetrated to the very pith of our own national life. We have been shaken out of our smug complacency, and our superficialities, begotten in times of peaceful ease. Without having had a direct share in the nations' quarrel, or paid the cost of it, we have passed through an epoch almost as significant as if we had used the munitions we have made, and our sons and brothers had been the slayers or the slain. While these awful years belong to history and can never be forgotten, they are not as yet history. Even if their chapters were clear enough for the reading, we cannot be certain what we should learn, or if learning, we would heed.
