Spring in Humanity
~ or. FRANK CRANE
Copyright. 1915. by Frank Crane)

Humanity has its seasons, and the
winter has been long.
Death has held us. We thought it
was only sleep. II was the winter of the
world, not the end of the world.
War is mankind's winter, when all
things droop and die. The sap Of prog
ress is exhausted. The universal organ
ism hibernates.
Generous forces grow weary. Art,
science, and religion, the three spirits
that weave the future, become exhausted.
Upon the ansemic world come the agen-
cies of destruction that forever stand
waiting to invade.
Instead of life we have septic fevers.
Greed, conquest, gigantic vanities. and
egotisms come like moving spectres to
torment men.
We have had snow and hail and deathly
cold enough. Dead ideas and lifeless old
beliefs" have mustered men to hideous
nightmare STRINGS.
Imperial Germany and imperial Brit
ain, twin ghosts of the dead Caesar, have
had their way with us.
We are winter-weary. II is time for
spring.
Already the buds are swelling. A bird
calls here and there, hint of softness
is in the air. We have lain in the death
winter of war long enough. Once more
the world is about to stir, We will begin
soon to reason again, sanity will return,
We shall all some together and speak
peaceably, lest we die.
History moves in great rhythmic
waves. We have had enough Of the
wave of destruction. II is time for the
tide to turn. Once more we will begin
to construct.
Spring is coming. Peace is coming.
Not the peace of supine submission, but
ton. a recognition Of the unity Of the
world, the identity Of the interests Of all
nations.
Spring is coming Ask me not how
know. II is simply that humanity can
not permanently continue a program of
ruin. II is faith in the recuperative force
Of the race. BY and by all diseases run
their course. Morbid conditions are tenn
porary; only health is persistent.
For surely III the blind deep buried roots
OF all mems souls today
secret CULVER shoots.
An underground compulsion Of new birth
Lays hold upon the dark core Of our being,
An unborn blossoms urge their uncomprehended
way
Toward the outer day.
Unconscious. dumb unseeinR,
The darkness in us ir aware
or something potent burning through the earth,
OF something vital in the procreant air.

There are many familiar aTgu.
msnts TO reinforce the gospel OF

which has not been advanced with
anything like the frequency II de-
serves This argument II found In

10 save money he IA pretty sure to

their money. but commonly they

In thousands OF instances they

physical organism. In thousands OF
other instances. even when the
MASTERS do not spent a cent for
liquor. they throw away their money
in extravagAnt expenditures Cor food

The ultimate result IN self poison
Ing, just az surely as the ultimate
result OF persistent indulgence In
intoxicants is self poisoning.
Other MASTERS, temperate as 10

amusements that involve nervous
stress and often involve long hours
In unhygienie surroundings.

Then there are MASTERS who toss
money cesselessly to hack-drivers

two representatives of compulsory mill

other representatives and more repre-
sentatives, gives you an idea of the night
that is going 10 be put up 10 saddle COM

Can they put it over in the country
that has stood out for PEACE and
claims to be the leader among the nations

We ask again: CAN THEY PUT 1T

CAN THEY PUT OVER MILITAR-

CAN THEY PURSUANCE THIS
COUNTRY?

believes in compulsory military training,

II is the good American privilege of

THEregulation of food prices is mo-
so easy as it seems. A statement
in congress says that the food min
lister Of Great Britain issued an order
fixing the price of dairy products
The dairymen were not satisfied with
the price; they butchered their mich
cows. There was a distinct national
social and economic loss that could
not be repaired within two or three
years. Great Britain issued an order
instituting a three-course dinner
They kept account of results, and it
was found that the increased con-
sumption of meat and bread under the
three-course dinner order more than
offset the economy. The people cut
out the side dishes and limited them
selves to the more substantial foods.
That order was revoked. Great Bri-
tain instituted one meatless day a
week They kept account of the
results and it was found that the in
creased consumption of bread on the
neatless day more than offset the
diminished consumption of meat. They
revoked that order. Those orders
we're issued with the best possible in
ention and, must be admitted, with
is much wisdom as man can concen-
rate upon the most seriuos concerns
f either private or national life.
food conservation must be by volun-
airy aid to the government to be fully
