Cincinnati, Oct. 2S-President Will
son, discussing the relations Oh the
United States to the European war,
declared that this is the last war that
involves the world that the Unite!
States can keep out
He gave as his reason his BELIEF
that "the business of neutrality IS
over" and that war now has such
scale that the position of neutrals
sooner or later becomes lntoleraDle.
In his night speech President Will
son said he was ready to engage IN a
war for the rights of mankind, de-
clared money accumulated in the Unit
ed States should be used after the war
only for righteous purposes, and called
upon people who wished to be con-
sidered Americans to act as Amerl-
cans.
Must Prevent Aggression.
1--WE have got to step out i'm the
great arena. Some day we may have
to use the physical force OF this ma
ton. Being the nation that we are, we
cannot use it to promote aggression.
Being the nation that we are we
should use it to prevent aggression
He repeated that the present war
was due largely to secret intrigues.
I'VE have seen that the position of
the neutral becomes almost intoler-
able AS between right and wrong,
there can be no neutrality. We must
sec that no nation goes to war for

"The influences that govern inter-

Denies War Makes Prosperity.
After denying the Republican claim
that the business prosperity of the
United States during the last two
years has been due to trade created
by the war, the President ridiculed
predictions that after the war Europe
will overwhelm this nation by it's
economic strength and dump" in the
United States goods now being stored
up for that purpose. He asserted that
exports of everything that goes to
supply armies makes only 1 per cent
of the total of American commerce.

defenders of the city of Cernavoda,

of Moldavia has been cleared of invad'

the Germans have advanced still fur

CHAPTER IN,

There is one puZZling thing about
these prehistoric memories of mine.
1t is the vagueness of the time ele-
ment. do not always know the order
of events; nor can I tell, between
some events, whether one, two, or
four or FIVE years have elapsed. ] can
only roughly tell the passage of time
by judging the changes in the appear
ance and pursuits of my fellows.
Also / can apply the logic of events
to the various happenings. For in
stance, there Is no doubt whatever that
my mother and l were freed by the
wild pigs and fled and fell in the days
before | made the acquaintance of
Lop Ear, who became what may call
my boyhood chuIn. And it is just as
conclusive that between these two pc
RODS / must have left my mother.
have no memory of my father than
the one | have given. Never in the
years that followed did he reappear.
And from my knowledge of the times
the only explanation possible lies in
that he persisted shortly after the ad.
venture with the wild pigs. That it
must have been an untimely end there
is no discussion. He was in full vigor,
and only sudden and violent death
could have taken him OFF. But know
not the manner of his going-whether
he was drowned in the river or was
swallowed by snake or went into the
stomach of old Saber Tooth, the tiger,
is beyond my knowledge.
For know that remember only the
a.. I
eyes, in those prehistoric days. If my
mother knew my fathers end she ney.
er told me. For that matter / doubt
If she had vocabulary adequate to
convey such information. Perhaps, all
told, the folk in that day had voca-
bulary Of thirty or forty sounds.
| call them sounds rather than
words because sounds they were pri-
marily. They had no fixed values to
be altered by adjectives and adverbs.
These latter were tools of speech not
yet invented. Instead of qualifying
nouns or verbs by the use of adjec-
tives and adverbs, we qualified sounds
by intonation, by changes in quantity
and pitch, by retarding and by accel.
Grating. The length of time employed
in the utterance of particular sound
shaded its meaning. ...: .-s.<
We had no conjugation. One judged
the tense by the context We talked
only concrete things because we
thought only concrete things; also we
depended largely on pantomine. The
simplest abstraction was practically
beyond our thinking, and when one
did happen to think one he was hard
put to communicate it to his fellows.
There were no sounds for it. He was
pressing beyond the limits of his yoca.

At last my father joined US. He was
extremely angry. remember the out
thrust Of his protruding underlip as he
g!ared down at the wild pigs. He
snarled something like a dog, and
remember that his eyeteeth were
large, like fiangs, and that they i'm.
pressed me tremendously.
His conduct served only the more to
infuriate the pigs. He broke off twigs
and small branches and flung them
down upon our enemies. He even
hung by one hand, tantalizing just be-
yond reach, and Knocked them as they
CRASHED their tusks with impotent
rage. Not content with this, he broke
of a stout branch and holding on with
one hand and foot, jabbed the infuri-
ated beasts in the sides and whacked
them across their noses. Needless to
state, my mother and / enjoyed the
sport.
But one tires of all good things. and
in the end tires of all good things, and
in the end my father, chuckling mali
ciously the while, led the way across
the trees. Now ii was that my ambi.
tons ebbed away, and became timid,
holding tightly to my mother as she
climbed and swung through space.
remember when the branch broke with
her weight. She had made a wide
leap, and with the snap of the wood
was overwhelmed with the sickening
consciousness of falling through space,
the pair of us. The forest and the sun
shine on the rustling leaves vanished
from my eyes. had fading glimpse
of my father abruptly arresting his
progress to look, and then all was
blackness. .... -.....
The next moment / was awake in
my sheeted bed, sweating, trembling,
nauseated. The window was up, and
cool air was blowing through the
room The night lamp was burning
calmly. And because of this take it
that the wild pigs did not get us, that
we never fetched bottom, else should
not be here now; thousand centuries
after, to remember the event. 49,.
And now put yourself in my place
for a moment. Walk with me bit in
my tender childhood, bed with me a
night and imagine yourself dreaming
such incomprehensible horrors. Re.
