HUNDREDS of years ago, before ever
one nasturtlum had bloomed, little
nasturtium plant decided that 1t wanted
to make a flower. what does one do"
the plant asked the sunbeam, when one
wants to make a flower-a lovely big
blossom7"
The sunbeams laughed happily and re-
piled, I'VE wondered how long 1t would
be before you began to want to bloom!
We wondered II you would be happy to
Just grow on. and on. and on, with never
a blossom on your vines? We're so glad
you want blossom"
The nasturtlum plant smiled and swung
it's arms about gaily. I'm so glad you
are pleased" It said. "I like to do the
things that my friends want me to do.
But you haven't told me how to bloom!"
How to blooml" exclaimed the sun
beams I'VE can't tell you how to do your
own work-that's your business!
"oh, but you must!" exclaimed the
plant in distress II always do what you
tell me to do You must tell me how to
make q fiower!"
THAT we cannot" replied the sunbeams
firmly. ANY plant that is strong enough
and old enough to want a flower, is ca
pable of doing their blooming unaided."
And with that saying the sunbeams fol-
lowed old mother sun off to sleep in the
western sky.
Now, just think of that!" cried the
nasturtium plant when 1t got its breath
"Those sunbeams who have always been
80 kind and helpful! And now. when we
need them most, they calmly go off to
sleep without giving us one bit OF advice!
Whatever shall we do?"
While the little nasturtium plant was
fretting and fuming about the sunbeams,

 There must be something better a mediation on tho basis of Q world embracing federation in which world citizenship shah be recognized, in which che central authority shall op- crate directly on che individual and not on the nations as corporations.

 How can they and we have that assurance? We can have it as soon as we are willing to pay the price The price. curiously enough. is not to be expressed in money nor is it to be ex- pressed in lives sacrificed nor in the abandonment Of anything that makes for real national greatness.

DARWIN P. KINSLEY
 ON WORLD FEDERATION

When Tennyson wrote hocksley Halr' there was recorded 9 vision lh which the poetprophet foresaw the day when all mankind would be att peace.
 Tho thought has taken powerful root. nor. can .it be extlrpatod by Ihe mockery in 1915 Of the most extensive and destructive warfare the world has ever seen.
 Alfred Lord Tennyson has been dead for more than twenty years-ont tne great idea be implanted is thriving today
 It's latest expression has come from the pen of Darwin P Kingsley, Presi- dent of the New York Life Insurance Company In lieu of his usual letter January l. he gave forth 9 New Years dlsQuisitiou called eLet us Have Peace
 It Iorsees Q change In the attitude of mankind-in the races Of t0o world, each toward an the others. It rec ognizes that the nationality Of today guarantees a citizens rights up to na. tiona} borders and beyond that point there is an extraterritorial guarantee based on Go-called Information Law
 But International Law is merely a weak and worthy attempt Ito soften the asperities Of the barbarism which in the last analysis, controls interna- tional relations.
 President Kingsley takes tho ground that there is now such thins as ''world-citizenship. although it is un- protected and even uucstabiished by any constitutional declaration; end be declares that the European horror can be ended-and so ended that it will never be repeated-only by 8 definite declaration Of that citizenship

ANTLDUNCAN INDIAN
 STATES HIS SIDE


 Mark Hamilton, In an Interview in the Petersburg Progressive gives the side or the Metlokahtla Indians who are opposed to Father William Dun can, in the controversy at that Indian town. He says
 .g am one of the many who came from British Columbia to Metlakahtlo with Mir Duncan, twenty-seyen years ago The church missions had given S50.000. to establish a place for the natives and carry on tho work. This money was never used for either houses or food. This is Che origin of the trouble ct the mission.
 "The cannery sawmill and the wa. terworks was the result of the na- tives labor together with S25.0OO that was donated by the U s. Missions Subsequently MT. Duncan expressed a desire to retire from the Metiakaht- Ia mission and told Che natives that if they would give him $500 he would will them the entire property. This was agreed, the money paid over and Mr. Duncan left A year later, or thereabout he was back and in Full possession of the property valued at the time at S25,000.
 Tt IS the claim of the natives that the property is thoir own from the fact that they contributed their labor and that the money was given for their benefit
 Some ten years ago, the natives de- mandeo q government school of Mr. Duncan. His ansker was not until my head is cut off will there be school in Meuabahta It Is well known fact that he is bitterly opposed to the education Of the natives Notwith- standing that fact the natives re-. Quested and pettioned the officials for the establishment of a government school which has resulted in the pres ent trouble
 Some think that the gov ernment. by the establishment of a school has spoiled MT Duncan's work, and blame the officials for the present chaotic condition at the mission. That is wrong, as. long before the govern menl officials appeared on the scene, the natives had agreed that MT. Dune ans usefulness had ended.
 Mr. Duncan wants the natives to be. Hoye that the officials arc tools and 'meddlers as he calls them, but the natives know better; they know that the official are merely obeying orders, the result of the natives unceasing supplication for relief"
