ucated peoples because all of us are so
 constituted that we instinctively fear
 and oppose that which is not com
 pietely known to us. It is this mutual
 distrust and misunderstanding that
 leads to wars between the peoples of
 different races and nations. There will
 be no parliament of man. no federation
 of the world, until the common peo-
 pie of all countries are well educated
 but. l repeat, that such universal edu-
 cation is impossible without Normal
 schools like this where teachers are
 prepared for the work of instructing the youth of every land so as to raise
 them up to be sober and intelligent ci-
 tizens.
 You are about to enter your life work at time when the world is in a most
 disturbed condition. All the great countries of the earth, save our own
 United States. are locked in the death grip of war, and We find ourselves as nation in a net work of perpleXities. Our foreign relations are as tangled as the barbed wire defenses of a European battlefield, every strand of which is charged with electricity at high volt age Tn times like these thank Heav- en that we are an educated people. fit for self government and even though the air be tremulous with unspeakable possibilities, vet We are prompt to rec ognize the obligation both of those who lead and those who follow, of walking circumspectly. of moving cautiously, for our own and for humanity's sake. If they were not so well educated We might expect the American people to give way to a gust of passion that would add the armies of the United States to the fierce burning fire of hu- man sacrifice that now rages across the ocean. But we seek a quarrel with no other people: we question no na- tion's honor: we desire only to enjoy the Blessings Of the peace and pros perity that we have won by our own honest efforts.
 When I think of the war in Europe it does not seem possible that 1t could have happened if the people of the country which started this butchery had possessed the same influence over their government of the Un1td States Far be it from me 10 attempt to an alyze the underlying causes of the pres ent war To do so would lead the dis cussion far afield and yet no partisan bl ellneE the aliltS or the teutonlc ka- tions would be changed in his opinion., We do know. however. what govern ment 1t was that threw the torch into the powder barrel by the first declara- tion of war. I trust. therefore. that it will not be considered a violation of either neutrality or propriety for me to say that the military advisers of the emperor of Austria have for years planned the conquest of Serbia. These professional soldiers believed that might was right; that it was proper to subdue their weaker neighbors by force of arms; that it was desirable to extend the dominion of their emperor over alien races and foreign lands. But does any one think that the plain peO- pie of Austria. the farmers of the Dan- ube Valley, the tradesmen of Vienna. wanted war? Does any one believe that the two great classes of the ISp ulation which, as in all other countries.

You cannot be true TO your child

IL will be hard to stop thinking of
him entirely, but you must try to do
it. Turn your thoughts in different
direction; read more and think less
of your woes. Your husband GER

YOU are in love with another man.
For the sake OF your child give your
husband a chance to have confidence
in YOU. And remember it is doc

When grating potatoes for potato

save scratching your fingers and

On icy steps and walks the best
thing is ground cork. Better than
ashes, for it does not track in the
house and you do not slip on it.
To Clean Combs and Brushes-Put
