Human Nature Does Change

One OF the worst results of the is the chance it
gives to the pacsts that the dreams of the re-

that always have fought and always will fight be-
cause forsooth human never changes Every
dog must have his day. and this be the mtasts
but a short compared with the era of peace which
will follow this awful time
And when men say that human nature does not
change and base their argument for military
regime that they employing proverb whose fasity

The problem of religious federation was beset with
