illuminated the minds but the souls are still
cropping in darkness. Peace can only be the
offspring of an internal movement in man,
through which power has been replaced by
justice. Peace cannot be brought about by
treaties nor enforced by the believers in peace
at any price.
Hand in hand with the mechanical world
the world of imagination accomplished great
deeds. There emerged new and wonderful
theories. The beliefs of men were turned to
Biblical ideas, to the real sense of the concep-
ton Of the world, the sense for which Christ
died on the cross There emerged the peace
movement, and it contains in itself the high
est command OF religion-Thou shalt not kill.
The movement of peace touched chords of
yearning in mems hearts. The movement
grew and grew. Out OF that country was sent
the message to erect a great temple 70 the
faith.
Once more, in ancient times, men sat in
the courts ct the temple and spoke Of justice.
Antagonists seemed to be drawn into accord
without crossing swords. Little quarrels
were quoted and the deluding hope filled the
priests OF this new religion that peace on earth
had made its triumphal entry. Those priests
forget that no religion is ever firmly planted
in the fugitive minds Of men which has not
been tried as by FIRE. The peace movement
has to go through the fiery furnace of these
derious conflicts.
Exterior signs, as ornaments preparations
for other and new cataclysrls have nothing TO
do with the essential meaning o. peace. When
the days are fulfilled that the souls Of men
are purged Of dross they will reject any use
OF technical wonders which now are created
for the extinction OF the human races The
sublime songs gloIifying the heroes OF death
must be transformed into songs for life,
clarifying those heroes who in the silent
obscurity face death in bringing forth man.

Other peoples, standing as spectators of

That's the fun Of Edith Haynes Thompson,

specializing as to what everything is. There
are thoughtful labels, to be sure, but nobody
looks at them until ingenuity wears out or

People living in this country and filling their
lungs with the deep pure air OF its liberty and
freedom should never be blinded by narrow
sentiments OF natonalsm. They have lett
this sentiment behind them in coming to find
here fresh opportunities and fresh values and
a new lease OF life. Materialism was the IN
carnation of values Of life which were brought
together by the history of centuries and which
were embodied in every individual. 1t was
justified by this history. Every nation
fanatically guarded It's so-caled ideals and
erected wall OF misunderstanding between
itself and its alien neighbots.
These walls are not sscrosanct TO the tech
meal monsters of this war-they are being
annihilated, and now the accumulated misun-
derstandinss flaming into hatred National
ism has become the pitiless murderer of
humanity. which beeds from thousands OF

when he was setting it and
levelling it all the ladies
scattered into a far corner
and huddled there, sitting
on lacquer boxes and can
dlesticks and throwing out
suggestions as to posing ef-
feet, etc. 1t was decided
that Mrs. Thompson at the
tea table would be the very
picture til t everybody
craved most. Mrs. Thomp-
son posed herself, gazing
soulfully at her customers"
as she said. And then, just
as the gun was about to go
off, somebody suggested
that Matte, the good wo-
man, be inserted into the
scene. Matte was accord
ingly posed, teacup in hand,
the most dignihed ramihca-
ton an art shop lady ever
had in the picture of her
establishment. When the
flash went oft we uncovered
our ears and opened our
eyes and were fain to ad-
