THE COMING OF UNIVERSAL
PEACE.
By JOHN TEMPLE GRAVES.

If
One thing amid the chaos of battles
y absolutely sure.
Some day, soon or late-sooner per
haps than we think-this CHASTITY,
CORY, senseless colossal war will come
TO an end.
Some day these l2OOO,GO0 men--a
mighty host Of soldiers whose bullets
and bayonets are consecrated to
slaughter and blood-will go marching
or struggling to their several broken
homes.
The mighty German war machine
will gather its battered fragments to-
gether, beat its swords into plough
shares, its bayonets into pruning
hooks and take up the long, patient
miracle of rebuilding the magnificent
prosperity blasted by its war against
a world in arms.
Some day the soldiers of France
will tramp back from the blood
drenched battlehelds Of Charleroi
Compeigne and the Marine to lay their
hands upon the looms and spindles,
the agriculture and artisanry that
have made their country the worlds
marvel OF recuperative thrift.
The British lion, shaking the name
so lately dripping blood, will recross
the channel to carry peace and pros.
perity once again to Albion's shores.
The Russian bear, with the swarm
ing millions Of his rugged race. will
recross the Vistula to the frozen
teppes-Austria will disband the rem.
nant OF her shattered armies in the
name of peace.
And little Belglum-brave and he.
roic Belgium-at once the martyr and
the hero Of the war-will Irvine her
martial glories about her new.made
but forever historic ruins, with none
TO modest nor to make her afraid.
And in that great but mournful day
these battered millions sitting among
the sorrow and broken homes and the
memory of loved ones buried s"ifl
in piled up masses in the long, shall
low trenches of the slain upon the
fair fields Of France, or in the CHASTITY
graveyards of Galicia, will sit down
beside their desolate hearthstones Ia
think of what It all means-of what
this awful war was all about-of what
they fought for-of why they fought
at all-of what mighty cause was set
tled-of what mighty good was won
and whether the mission that sent
them forth. was worth the wide and
sweeping death that draped WORLD
in mourning.
And out OF this tragic reflection
this aftermath of battles there will
arise beyond all question among thu
millions OF Germany, of France, o.
England, of Russia, OF Austria and o
Belgium, that which lives now II
America reaction against war ant
bloodshed and battles so deep anC

"slNcE SHE WENT HOME"

The twilight shadows linger longer
here.
The winter days make gray the
circling year.
For even summer winds are chill and
drear-
Since she went home.
The robins note has touched minor
strain,
The old glad songs repeat a sad re.
frain,
And laughter sobs with hideous, bitter
pain
Since she went home.
Since she went home
How still the empty rooms her pres
ence blessed
Untouched the inflow that her dear
head pressed;
My mourning heart finds no place for
It's rest
Since she went home.
Since she went home
The long, long days have crept ava!
like years,
The sunlight has been dimmed will
doubts and fears.
And the dark nights have wept in
lonely tears
Since she went home.

The splendid attendance at the A.

to the officials OF the institution, but
to the people Of the entire State. The
education OF a young man cannot be
postponed without great danger.
When postponed, more often than
otherwise. It is never completed, and
the presence OF so many Of the sons

the splendid spirit of our people. A

Rules That Govern the Treatment Of

The care Of the wounded is necessa
rily an important duty imposed Oh
every nation in a S of Il
The general system adopted for pro-
viding u medical service is practically
identical in the armies of all the great
powers. 1t contenplates a division OF
the service into three p~ortions-that
which belongs to and accompanies the
fighting troops. that which pertains to
the base (of supplies, and the line OF
communications and that which per-
tains to the home territory. or 1.-The
zone of the interior"
The principle governing these serv-
ices is that nothing but first aid and
emergency treatment should be at

bat and that. having received this
treatment. the disabled should be
quickly transported to the base"
where abundant facilities for their
care can be provided without encum-
boring the fighting forces.
Here at the base they are carefully
classified. and those who are SO seri
ously disabled as to be unfit for fur.

to hospitals ait home. while those who
are less seriously disabled are retained

Committee Of National League Favors
the Plan For All Municipalities.
That the city manager idea has
proved generally satisfactory may be
inferred from the report recently sub
mitted by a committee of the National
Municipal league favoring the estab-
lishment of the city manager plan In
all the municipalities of the United
States. says the Town improvement
Magazine.
An amendment to the general plan is
suggested by which the mayor or city
manager is to be selected by appoint
ment rather than by election. the ap-
pointing officers being members Of a
commission similar to a board of alder
men. themselves elected by the citi-
Zens.
To the man chosen as chief executive
Of a city n salary of from $1,000 to
$4,000 should be paid, according to the
size of the town, and this man is to
have jurisdiction over the six principal
departments Of municipal activity
law, health, public works and utilities.
education. finance and the civil service
board.
That this plan is no spasmodic efu-
sion of i'll advised cranks is evidenced
by the championship Of such men as
the president of Harvard university.
DR.. James of the University Of Texas.
DR.. Fairlie of the University Of Illinois:
Robert Treat Paine of Boston. Clinton
Rogers Woodruff of Philadelphia and
Robert s. Childs of New York-all men
ripe in judgment and experience and
never prone to fads or half baked gen.
eralities.
While. therefore. it is still impossible
definitely to determine the past success
Of the city manager idea. and while it
would be more than interesting to re-
ceive a consensus Of opinion Of the cit
liens of such towns as have tried the
new p%lan-notably Dayton. o.; Sumter.
s. c.. and Hickory. N. Cit appears
reasonable to conclude that the popu-
larity of the city manager conception
is waxing and that. far. from being un-
democratic. the plan is in reality the
very essence of American democracy.

which may be known as Il civic im'

The newspapers will. of course. have
been Interested in the movement from
the outset.
The first step is to raise a fund for
purposes OF securing plans and meet
ing the expenses Of the movement, aud
this may be accomplished either by
an appropriation made by the munici-

subscription. 1t is advisable to have
as great Il general interest as possible
created in the subject. as it will thus
receive Il degree of support WHICH
would not be accorded it were Its &C
tivities confined to a limited number.
One of the best means Of arOusfnx
public interest in city planning is the
giving of public lectures on the sub

should always be obtained whatever
the plan followed. and the lecture
should be accompanied by Illustrations
