The Social Conscience.

The most important discovery of
the present age is not the discovery
of the telephone, or of wireless teleg-
raphy, or Of the antitoxins Of dis
ease, but the discovery Of the social
conscience. Never before in the his
tory of the world have people been so
touched by social sympathies, so
moved by social passion, so eager for
social amelioration. Wage-earners and
capitalists, philosophers and plain peo-
pie, wise and ignorant, are equally
concerned for this application of social
duty. When some philosophical his
torian recalls the character Of the pres
ent age 1t may well be that he shall
describe 1t as the age Of the social
quesuon.-Rev. Francis G. Peabody

have YOU A LICENSE TO
NAVIGATE?

Some of the hunters and fisher
men of the Eighth Naval District
who have not yet obtained license
Ifor their hunting and fishing craft
are going to be very much disap.
pointed, when the hunting season
opens, to discover that they will not
be allowed to use their boats.
All boats propelled by sail or ma
chinery are required to have a 'li-
cense to navigate" issued by the
Navy Department. This license NAV
be obtained, without charge, from
the Licensing Office, 215 Godchaux
Building, New Orleans, La.
Several thousands of licenses have
already been issued in this District
and comparatively few boats now re-
main unlicensed. In view of this
fact, patrol boats in the Gulf of Mex
leo are already busy warning sea-go-
ing vessels that they will not be
allow to navigate without the
proper licenses, and an inland water
patrol will soon be at work rounding
up boats not provided with the prop-
er papers. n
Many boat owners, whose boats
are not now in active commission.
nave paid no attention to the nee
essity of applying for licenses, but
when the shooting season opens and
they desire to move their boats to the
hunting grounds, they will realize
their oversight when a patrol boat
demands their license, and ties them
up for want Of it.
Vessels in the carrying of trade
may also be put to the same incon-
venience by neglecting to register
and get license.
Application cards may be had up-
on request at the Licensing Offices.

Doctor Blank rose calmly. He passed
down the aisle with the serious, self

UNIVERSITY SESSION OPENS
SEPTEMBER 49,

The next regular session Of the
Louisiana State DIVERSITY will open
Louisiana State University will open
on Wednesday, September 10. 1t is
the earnest desire of the University
authorities that there be no diminu-
ton in attendance from that of
previous sessions, but, on the con-
trary, that the registration be larger
than ever before.
There is no doubt that the world
will have to look mainly to the Tn

rapidly depleted on the battle fields
Of Europe" says President Thos. D.
Boyd of the Louisiana State Univer-
sity. MANY European colleges and
universities have closed their doors,
and it would be very unfortunate to
have any great falling off in the at
tendance Of our American colleges
and universities this fall.
High school graduates and COL
lege students are worthy Of al praise
for their eagerness to enter the mill
tary service and their willingness, if
need be, to die for their country; but

doubt that these young men can rem

WORDS, MASTERS
OF OUR ACTIONS
Importance Of Speech Declared to be al
Great as That Of Ideas

Words are women, deeds are men, "
wrote George Herbert in the early six
teen hundreds. Actions speak louder
than Words runs an old proverb. De-
mocritus said, words are but the shad-
ows of actions" These are only half
truths, however. They might just as
we'll be reversed. There can be no ac-
ton without thought behind it. But
you can't voice a thought without
words. Words are the tools of thought
the weapons of the intelleet. Word.
wisdom is thoughtwisdom. Deep
thoughts require deep words This
proves that words are the masters Of
all action--of all conduct.

study would certainly get wordwins
