WAR IS HELL"

By F. P. Holland in Farm and Ranch
Promoted by those who seek
profit ard notoriety, the victories
of war are won and lost by the
sacrifice OF the lives of loved sons
aud brothers.
Armies and navies take from the
human race the best specimens OF
men and leave the aged aud unfit
iD the majority to build up the RAJ Q
and develop civilization.
Modern war is promoted gen.
orally by those who do the least
fighting and pay but little in sac-
rifice or money.
II those who are the foremost in
starting wars were compelled to be
the 6rst IN battle and bear a full
share of the grief and cost. there
would be no wars-but few, il any,
wish to sacrifice sons and bear the
financial burdens incident to war.
Hate and vengeEce are not valid.
reasons for making war. Those
who would create war for financial
gain or personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT
are our most dangerous enemies
The glory of viii ming battle will
not heal the bleeding heart of a
single mother wboose son has been
siam, nor will the conquering of a
nation bring happiness TO the
widow whose husband lies in an
unmarked grave.
Education and Christianity will
bring permanent peace, prosperity
and lasting happiness-wten edu-
cation becomes general, Christian
lty will bring universal peace.
Wars that have been, and to
keep off those that might be, now
consume IS cents of every dollar
collected by our government.
Before declaring war, let us
hold primary with the underl
standing that those who vote for
war must be the first t. the front
and bear percentage, according
to their wealth, of the financial
burden.
Universal peace makes tor pro-
perity and happiness. War means
waste and misery. Ask those who
have cons and money if they are
willing to sacrifice the llvesof their
sons and rpend their mony to win
battles, and those who howl tor war
will cease to be heard in the land.
The number of men in armies
and navies, it engaged in Useful
pursuits with the money 1t costs to
maintain armies and navies, would
make this earth a veritable Gar :
den OF Eden.
War is He'll for those who fur
nish the husbands and sons to do
the fighting.

LOVES REWARD.

The sweetest lives are those to dirty
we'd,
Whose deeds both great and small
Are close-knit strands of an unbroken
thread,
" here love ennobles all.
The world may sound no trumpet,
ring no bells;
The book of life the shining record
tells,
The love shall chant its own beati-
tudes
After its own life working. A child's
kiss
Set on thy signing lips shall make
thee glad,
A sick man helped by thee shall make
the strong.
Thou shalt be served myself in every
OF service which to men thou rem
derest.
Robert Browning.

We were sitting around the
redhot stove in the lobby of the
village tavern and just when
silence had fallen upon the group
one man turned to another and
asked:
'Squa' Perkins, if you don't
mind, I'd like to ask you ques-

The Squire didn't say whether
he minded or not, but the other
went ahead with it:
It's about this ere high cost
of living. Have you figgered out
what's the reason for it?'
I have,' was the answer.
Then I'd like to hear it.
Did you raise any wheat, corn

EUROPE'S STRUGGLE
HIBBEN'S TEXT AS
PRINCETON OPENS
University Begins Its 159th
Academic Year Today.
Registration of New Stu
dents Nearly 400.

PRINCETON, N. j., Sept. 2-Lessons
which Princeton students might draw
from the present war OF nations were
suggested by President Hibben in his
address this afternoon in the formal
opening exercises of Princetons 169th
academic year.
President Hibben, who was in Switzer-
land, and who only reached this country
two weeks ago, led the academic pro-
cession of trustees and faculty. Many
of the faculty have Just returned from
Europe.
In his address President Hibben said:
''The opening of this new academic
to our minds a striking contrast-the
peaceful setting Of this assembly against
the dark background of the terrible Eu-
ropean war. There is no place through
out the whole of Europe where a sim
liar body OF young men such as this
could be gathered together to inaugu-
rate their university studies for another
year In quietness and peace. The place
of the young men in Europe today is on
the battlefield. II indeed they have not
already found their place among the dead.
I'VE are told again and again by the
advocates OF war that 1t Is only through
the supreme discipline of battle that n
people can become reinviEorated and re-
established in national virtue and valor.
and that war develops the nobler qualities
Of self-sacrifice. bravery, loyalty and
1t is for us to show that we arc
able also to manifest these heroic vir-
tues In the midst OF peace"
The number of freshmen registered Is
about 400.

DUKEOF MANCHESTER
HERE WANTS SOLACE
FROM VEXING CARES
Tried to Interest Capitalists
in Moving Picture Project.
Gets Much Sympathy
From Follies' Chorus.

The Duke of Manchester who has been
an unheralded visitor in Philadelphia, left
this city today after seeking advice as to
how he could re-establish a $4,000. 900 NOV
ing picture concern. The company COL
lapsed IN New York. its demise being due
TO the complications In Europe. and scare
ity of money generally.
The Duke did not receive much en-
couragement from those he saw here, SO
he slipped quietly away from the Belle
vue-stratford on learning that conditions
were bad.
The Duke Intended to make moving
pictures which would instruct and en-
tertain school children and their parents,
and to get good material he proposed
visiting the Holy Land and take pictures
In keeping with the plan; trips to India
and other places also were planned.
The venture was to have been backed
by the International Social Service
League, which, up to a few days ago,
had sumptuously appointed Offices at 1s
East fist street, New York city. The
league was organized last June, with a
capital stock of Sl0,O00OOO. To spread In
all directions the league also absorbed
the Church and School Social Service
Bureau, of which DR.. William Carter, eN-
pastor of Madison Avenue Reformed
Church, was the head
DIR. Carter explained that the war
economic conditions and failure of the
Dukes friends to buy stock, caused the
collapse. When the moving picture plan
was presented to the clergyman, he i'm
mediately made the Duke international
president. II. j. Hlte, OF New York. a
practical picture man, was made sub
president, but the death OF Mr.. Hite sub
sequently was a blow to the concern
from which 1t could not recover.
The Dukes wife. who was formerly
Miss Helena Zimmerman, an hefress OF
Cincinnati. is believed to be abroad.
Whether or not she approves OF her hus-
bands venture is a matter of conjecture.
The heavy worries OF the affair follow
ing the failure were a little too much
for the Duke to stand without relaxa-
ton SO he came to Philadelphia and
while here called on some of the MEM
bers OF the "Follies of 1914" company, II iS
said, and told them of his troubles. Tnav
gave him lots OF sympathy and In re-
turn II appears that the Duke gave
them a dinner or a breakfast. At any
rate, IL was good meal. The feast
was in Atlantic City.
When the Duke returned here again
he could not help thinking of his trou-
bles, 40 he Just packed up, or had his
valet do the packing and got out M
one knows where he went.
