THURSDAY. April, 10 1917

Wars which bring disasters upon the
people will never cease as long as
Cars and Kings reign and govern In
stead OF the people. Great events IN
history are now transpiring to do away
with the monarchs and governments
ruled by the so-caled houses of royalty.
Russia has led the way and in less
than fortnight was changed from an
oppressive monarchy to republic.
This sudden transformation amazed
the world and at first it was so start
ling that it could hardly be believed.
And yet it Is true and there is more to
follow
All countries engaged in war which
are not now under republican form
of government will be at the close.
There is no other way on earth for the
people To live in peace. Wars are
never made by the people themselves.
War is made by their rulers and wars
are easily made by monarchs for they
do not care how much sorrow and suf-
fering they cause il they keep their
power and replenish their gold chests.
The United States is forced into this
war for its own protection. 1t is forced
into this war Just as man is forced to
protect his life aud his property from
the midnight assault of an assassin.
''Self preservation is the first law OF
nature"
So down with all kings, emperors
and tyrants and up with the Stars and
Stripes, the emblem OF republican
form OF government which means a
government ruled by the people and
FOR the people.

It's Congress"

The nffectatlon of calling congress
"the congress" seems to be quite wide
spread among those who address that
body officially or think they must be
strictly accurate In speaking of 1t. Yet
the Constitution Of the United States,
which created 1t, called 1t "a congress"
In first naming 1t, and In other place
calls It sometimes congress" and
sometimes "the with small "to
congress-" just as the construction of
the sentence and the euphony of sound
would dictate. Nobody need think he
will be unconstitutional II he omits
the "The."--St. Louis Star.

RESPONSIBILITY is ON FATHER
Travelling Along Wrong Road When He
Finds Himself Too Busy to Talk
With His Boy.

The father and son movement Is one
Of the best and most sensible things
we have heard of for long time. That
Is because 1t proposes to accomplish
results through using natural human
instincts naturally. 1t appeals to the
deepest of human feelings-love. 1t
goes about to remind fathers Of some
thing they may have forgotten and to
tell boys something they may not have
known. You can get at this better If
you sit down and talk confidentially
with some other fathers boy. He will
tell you things your own boy cannot.
In his wistful earnestness, you will
discover that there are times when a
boy has q real matter of grave i'm
portance to him that finds his father
too busy to be bothered. 1t will make
you stop and think as you realize that
this little fellow couldn't come to any
other conclusion than that his dad was
Indifferent. Fathers know better; ia
theirs remember pretty well when they
were boys, but they don't remember
just how sensitive boy Is to the
worst of rebuffs, that of being thought
silly. Now, the boys need to be told
this about their fathers, that they are
not Indifferent. But after all the big
gest thing is to tell fathers, for 1t Is
their business to understand and theirs
is the Observation-Disclosures Jour-
nal.

Words Of Great Frenchm.n.

Archbishop Fenelon (l651-1115), at
one time tutor of French prince, ut
tered the great truth that "kings exist
for the sake Of their subjects, not
subjects for the sake of kings" Writ
ing to friend the year before he died
he said: II ask little from most men |;
try to render them much, and to ex-
pect nothing In return; and l get very
well out of the bargain" Montaigne
(1533-1592) said of educating a child:
ut is not sufficient to make his mind
strong, his muscles also must be
strengthened; the mind is overborne If
1t be not seconded, and 1t is too much
for her alone to discharge two Offices"
Victor Hugo (1S02-1SS5) wrote: "The
pagan schools walked in darkness, feel
ing their way clinging to falsehoods
as well as to truths In their hapbazard
journeying. Some of their philosoph-
ers occasionally cast upon certain sub
jects feeble CLEANS which illuminate
but one side and made the darkness of
the other side more profound. Hence
all the phantoms created by ancient
philosophy. None bait divine wisdom
was capable Of substituting an even
and all-embracing light for all those
Pickering rays of human wisdom.
Pythagoras, Epicurus, Socrates, Plato
are torches; Christ is the glorious
light of day."

Whitman the Prophet.

Walt Whitman was a prophet who,
like SO many of his breed, called aloud
before his time had ripened, a poet
whose fruition for America lies dimly
In the future. Undismayed, buoyant
with fierce conviction and unshakable
faith. he moved amid the thunders OF
ruin menacing the republic and the
later insidious threats of its desay, the
bard of manhood. the chanter of de.
mocracy, the laureate of labor.-North
American Review.

When Life Is Sweet.

1t Is not the walking merely, 1t Is
keeping yourself In tune for walk, In
the spiritual and bodily condition In
which you can find entertainment and
exhilaratlon in so simple and natural
pastime. You are eligible to any good
fortune when you are In the condition
to enjoy walk. When the air and the
water taste sweet to you, how much
else will taste sweetl When the exer-
else of your limbs affords you pleas
ure, and the play of your sense upon
the various objects and shows Of ma
ture qulckens and stimulates your spir-
1t, your relation to the world and to
yourself Is what 1t should be-simple
and direct and wholesome. The mood
In which you set out on spring or
autumn ramble or sturdy winter
walk, and your greedy feet have to
be restrained from devouring the dis
tances too fast, Is the mood In which
your best thoughts and impulses come
to you, or In which sou might embark
upon any noble and heroic enterprise.
Life Is sweet In such moods, the uni
verse is complete, and there is no fall
ure or lmperfectlon anywhere.-John
Burroughs.

Abused SupsrIativss.

II Is hard to make people understand
that the adjective almost invariably
weakens the noun and that the word
very" for instance. does not strength
en- a statement, but qualities It But
the use Of the superlative Is even more
abused. We talk Of the "unimpeach-
able" honesty Of somebody or other.
knowing perfectly well that anybody's
honesty may be impeached. What
seems to be required is a readjustment
Of our habits Of thought and better
teaching of the value Of words and
even Of the usefulness Of grammar. A
superlative necessarily involves an az.
iom. It commits you. like saying that
the sum of the angles Of any triangle
is equal to two right angles. Your d.
lemma arises when you try to prove It.
"Impregnability" and "invulnerability"
and all other superlatives in general
use are posing as axioms when they
are mostly fallacies.-Wall Street Jour-

to one who has loved France 1t Is far
worse to visit the lovely northern
country. There is here a sense OF
emptiness, as If terror still hushed the
normal cheerful noises Of mankind
The people Of these regions have lost
everything. Their houses are burned;
their animals. even the rabbits, are
gone; their farm implements are shape
less pieces of grotesquely melted iron.
They live In temporary. patched shel.
ters and in the houses built by the So
ciety of Friends or mass themselves
In some nearby village that escaped
destruction. After time In this silent
country one gets the sense that de-
structon is normal. and tears start to
