embrace those or her own race, CIVIL zation and language? Is it imperial istic to desire to see Rumania under Rumanian rule? Is is imperialistic te desire to see the Serbian commun- ity again a great anad flourishing united power? ?"
 MT. Balfour declared that for mem bers of Parliament to forget the off cial statements of the government about the war aims of the allies and misrepreSent them in Parliament, knowing that their misrepresentationS would receive currency among the all lies enemies was Zone of the greatest diSServiceS any man can render his country at this time."
 In examining the situation, the sec retary said, the psychology of the Ger man people must be considered. It was not prejudice to say that the Ger mans had an entirely different view of international morality and the rights and duties of powerful state from any other community in the world. While that remained unchang- ed it was quite impossible for other nations to sleep comfortably in their beds.
 He contrasted the observations con- tained in the German reply to the
 
 practiced before the war, and added:
 England and America had been slowly getting these means adopted between the nations who resisted Ger many. Never did Germany accept a single obligation which would diminish or hamper her power to strike at any rival she desired to coerce.''
 The motion,i which was supported by the Pacifist group, declared: 'sThis house is of the opinion, providing sat isfactory guarantees can be obtained with regard to the independence and restoration of Belgium and the evacu- ation of occupied territory, that no ob- stacle should be placed in the way of preliminaries towards negotiations for a peace settlement which ought to embody an equitable solution of the problem of Alsace-Lorraine and of de- vising the enforcement of effective in- ternattonal machinery for the avoid ance of future wars.''
 MT. Lees-Snith in moving his reso- lution, maintained that successive se- cret agreements between the allies had carried their war aims far be- yond the original aims. He declared the recent rumor that Germany, in addition to losing Alsace-Lorraine, was to be deprived of territories on the left bank of the Rhine had been con- firmed in a secret session of the French Chamber by M. Ribot. Foreign Secretary Balfour inter- jected here that there never was such an agreement. MT. Lees-Smith re- torted that 1t was an agreement made between France and Russia. while Nicholas II. was Emperor. If this was carried out, said the member there would be new series of discon- tent, discord and hatred which would once again drench Europe in war and blood.
 MT. Lees-Smith advocated a league of nations and the abandonment of the Paris conference resolutions and imperialistic designs in all parts of the world. He contended it would be impossible to get peace without so- lution of the Alsace-Lorraine problem which both sides would be willing tc accept, and in conclusion pleaded for a conference for the discussion o1 naaCa tern nSafe-

THE HUNTING SEASON

The fall of the year is a time when the thoughts of many men turn to the woods. Our people have been so Intense over the war that the usual number of sportsmen will not go out this fall. The young men who used to be in the field for anything from a rabbit to a deer are getting ready to try their, skill on bigger game. But the crack of the rifle and the shot gun will still be heard. Many men as usual will go a great many miles to get their chance. at the diminishing store of wild game.
 The owner of timber and the far mer dread these incursions of town bred people into the woods. Lands where once the game seeker and the camper could wander freely, are now forbidden to the public It is regret able to have limitations thrown about this enjoyment of wild life. But camping parties are so notoriously reckless that it has been inevitable.
 Town-bred people do not realize
 how easily a fire will start in wild country. Dead leaves, pine needles and dry brush turn the ground into 8 finder box. You can go over a camp fire and stamp out every visible spark and yet there will be fire left that viii often eat it's way along to highly in
 famma,ble material. The only safe way is to give a camp fire thor. ough soaking with water.
 l This loss of timber by fire increases the cost of lumber and is one cause of the high cost of building houses Every man who enters the wood:
 this fall should keep this in mind.
 Also don't fire your gun every tim' YOU hear or see something move il
 the bushes With the present rati'
 between game and sportsmen, th' chances are even that it is anothe hunter. If you must shoot this kin' l of eama. enlist in the army.

"The Elgin marbles IL the study OF
Greek art in one Of Its most perfect
expressions both in sculpture and
architecture" said Mile. Hcnriette
Clopath In her lecture before the
Ruskin Art club last Monday after
noon. Introductory, she showed the
contrast between Greek and Egyptian
art. Greek art was the work OF a
happy freedom-loving people-a peo-
pie with intense Imagination and
highly artistic. " ''The Greeks Great
ed for themselves a religion according
to their tastes and their art Is the out
come of their religion" Poetry and
art as we'll as dancing and dramatic
games constituted the education of
the Athenian." Madamoiselle Clopath
talked Of the Parthenon which still
stands in ruins an impressive monu-
ment OF the time of Pericles. Tho de-
tails OF the decoration. the work OF
Thidias were explained and illustrated
in the details Of the sculptures In
pediment, metopes and frieze. Lord
Elgin saved these works from total
muitlation by vandals by taking them
to England where they are kept In the
British museum. Thru the influence
Of these sculptures the art OF Eng
land has shown a great tendency to-
ward classicism. The coloring Of the
Greek statues showed marked con-
trast to our common idea of coloring
as seen on the cheap statuette. Many
Of Greek temples were
