PEACE IN HEART

Speaking from the theme. Seek

Peace is Just the reverse of war and
disscnsion; IL is something everybody
wish 10 possess. For some people il
is fact, the more they seek it the
rcmoted il seems from them; il must
lie because they do not seek it on the
right principles.
1t is with Peace rs with anything
else. one must look fol' ii whore it Is,
in order Ia obtain it, We believe in n
day, when peace and happiness should
flourish abundantly, but when we look
about for il. we do not find that
abundance of peace as we all so well
would like To see. Wan and strife is
raging in its stead and it seems as
though we are utterly helpless in quit
crng things. and bringing about peace,
when we ought To be most effective in

ourselves peace disturbcrs, or are we
not looking for peace in right field.
There is a stumbling block somewhere.

Keep the tongue from evil, ana thy

we I've in day when peace IL de-

many means have been instituted. In
times past nations used to prescribe
war as a good remedy for peace. But
''io attitude To war as a peacemaker

IN our day. We have excellent proof

does not advocate war although with
the least of doubt she would be vic
torious in the battle.
But instead of reaching peace
through war as "A medium, the ma

The Hague conferences have proved
TO work splendidly and other national
means and so also the nations have
their local mediums, such as inter-
state commission, state board of ar

The international Show Soon
To Be Held Here.

The Association of American Paint
ers and Sculptors is beginning TO give
forth little news about the interna-
tional show which it has for some time
been organizing. This show is TO Se
held in the armory of the 69th Regi-
ment, which was chosen after much
elaboration as the best available
building from the point of view of light
and convenience Of access. 1t will be
opened on February IL and will con-
tinue day and evening until the middle
Of March. At least two thousand works
of art, American and foreign, will be
exhibited, and 1t is stated that the
things from abroad will be represent
alive Of all the various phases of what
Is known as the modern movement In
Europe. and, of course. especially in
France" The list of painters and
sculptors begins with Ingres and ends
with the Italian Futurists. 1t is good
news that Ingres Is to be represented.
but this announcement is also a little
puzzling, for we have not heard that

citation has, we dare say, some esoteric
purpose in its inclusion of Ingres. The

works of Cezanne, Gauguin, Van Gogh.

rcpean moderns the society has en-
barked on no propaganda. 1t proposes 10
enter on no controversy with any insti-
tuition. It's sole object is to put the paint

that Cellini thus deliberately set out
