THE sTATEsMANsHIP OF LINCOLN
What Would He Do Today?

are now celebrating the centenary Of
Bismark, who was born April !, 1915.
The present month brings to US in
America the fftieth anniversary Of the
end Of the Civil War and the death Of
Lincoln. President Lincoln accompanied
the Federal troops when they entered
Richmond April 4, 1865; Lee surren-
dered to Grant at Appomattox April 8;
Lincoln was shot in the evening Of
April IA and died the following day.
Wholly without prejudice or sectional
feeling, Lincoln was intensely occupied
with plans for the restoring Of har-
mouy and the quick return Of the Sc
ceded states to their full autonomy and
their proper places in the Union when
his death plunged the nation in grief.
He had the same conception as Jeffer-
sons of the paramount Importance Of
national union, and Of maintaining our
continental republic upon basis Of the
federal system.
For his leadership all parts Of the
country ought now to be profoundly
grateful. IL he could have lived few
years longer, we should perhaps have
been spared some unfortunate chapters
of our subsequent history and should
have worked out policies. both domestic
and foreign, that would have made us
q greater and stronger nation than we
are today Buth accomplished enough
to earn secure FAM as a statesman Of
supreme rank. He WAS an American
in whom were blended the characteris-
tics Of all parts Of the country 10 way
that made him national in the full
sense; q humanitarian OF great vision,
in whose heart there WAS no animosiJy
towards any nation or race of mankind.
The worlds greatest need today is Of
leaders Of The Lincoln mold, who will
believe that the welfare Of each nation
can be made to harmonize with that of
all others. Hating war, Lincoln was,
nevertheless, impellad to lead colossal
-four years struggle on behalf Of an
American unity that should make for
permanent peace and human liberty
IL he were alive today he would prob
ably hold that our country ought to
ascertain and then 20 express il clear
terms the common sentiment of the
non belligerent countries. lie would
stand for the worlds liberation from
way, upon Che basis Of principles and
agreements that would remove the
cruse5 Of strife, and provide a higher
structure than national sovereignty,
He would have America strong enough
to make its voice heard in the councils
Of the fearful and seitseekiug He was
like the greatest of our early states

We see a house we like. Not having
studied the principles upon which
modern architecture is founded we do
not attempt to analyze the cause or
the reason why the house has a pleas.
ing appearance. We do not realize
that architects have spent many years
in learning how to produce such effects.
A symmetrical house of pleasing ap-
pearance is made up Of many little
things. In certain kinds Of brick
houses the white plaster seams show
prominently. Other house walls show
no plaster in the seams The plaster.
ing is done differently to produce diff
ferent effects. When the plastering is
cut out to a depth of, say, three'eighths
of an inch, there is a shadow between
each two bricks, both at the ends and
sides. Thousands of these little shad.
oG marks, varying in shade, cover the
building with a blending Of color that
defies description. g. E
In this particular design a pleasing
effect is secured by the treatment OF
the gables. The projection Is just

London, April 2.-The attention Of
the British public is today concen-
trated upon the question of abstin-
ence. For the moment it has over
Swallowed the war. This is Good Fri
day, and in London there are no af-
ternoon papers, but it is doubtful if
the biggest headlines chronicling mil
itary activity could divert the atten-
ton of the people from the %all-absorb-
ing topic Of the possibility Of a dry"
country.
Drastic Measures.
That some drastic measures are
contemplated is beyond question, but
the public is divided in opinion as to
whether the prohibition is to be total,
Or whether the consumption of alco-
holic liquors will be permitted under
sharp control.
Several Of the London morning pa
pers appeared today with full page
advertisements presenting petitions
with the request that supporters of
the movement cut them out and send
them to Chancellor Of the Exchequer
Lloyd-George. These petitions read:
Il am entirely in favor Of the sus-
pension of the manufacture and sale
of intoxicating liquor during the war,
