RUSKIN ON PEACE

To the Editor Of the EUonin0 Ledger:
Slr--Do these words of Ruskin apply to
the United States of America? You may
either win your peace or buy ii: win It..
by resistance To evil buy II, by compromise
with EVIL You may buy your peace with
silcnced consclences: you may buy 1t with
broken vows-buy II with lying words
buy II with base connivances--buy It with
the blood OF the slain, and the cry Of the
captive, and the silence of lost souls over
hemisnheres of the earth, while you sit
smiling at your serene hearths. llsping
comfortable prayers morning and evening
and 80 mutter continually TO yourselves,
Peace. peace when there is no peace but
only captivity and death for you as well as
for those you leave unsaved; and yours
darker than theirs" W. L. II.

For Baseball Fans.

Next week the News will publish the most popular baseball poem ever set in type, "Casey at the Bat" which first appeared 26 years ago in the San Fran cisco Examiner It was written by Pbinuel Thayer, at that time a memb ber of the Examiner staff, and was later reciled all over America by De Wolf Hopper, it's true American humor mak- ing it universally popular Twenty years later a companion poem to "Casey at the Bat" was written by J. D. Mcdonald entitled "The;sVolunteer," I" which will appear in this paper two weeks hence. All baseball fans who want something which they will never tire of reading should cut out both these poems and paste in their scrap books. Look for "Casey at tbe' Bat" next week and "The Volunteer" the week after
