about two years ago, was that,
after this war, which was then
threatening to engulf the whole
European world in its horrors. and
has since more than fulfilled its
threat, there would be opportunity
for this country to take initiative
in league to prevent the recur-
renee of such Gala =.
"The league has /. Lrposes to
take sides, as between the belliger-
ent nations, but it does believe that
all civilized peoples are interested
TO use means as far as possible, to
prevent the recurrence of such a
worldwide confagration. T h e
league has been constantly grow

mended itself to the thoughtful
Judgment of the American people.
Several of the belligerent coun-

its plan and are looking hopefully

FIX UP THE SCHOOL

We appreciate, at least we be-
lieve we do. the problems of fin
ance, facing every School Board.
To keep pace with the increasing
demands and at the same time keep
peace with the taxpayers is no idle
task.
New ideas put in practice cost
money and we always sympathize
with the Board when some nova
tion is suggested.
We have a suggestion that will
cost little money-not much. 1t
is not, however, a new idea in
School life. We offer no criticism
for past commission; we just want
to see a change. The rooms of the
High School academy Building)
need paint, and a good clean up.
Surely, with the Academy Build
ing given us rent free, we can
make it approach, at least. the APP
pearance of a High School Room.
If Bakes are necessary to the eX-
istence of our Public Institutions,
Schools Gardens, Clubs, Church
organizations, Libraries, Alumni
organizations, Caps and Gowns,
Senior dances and Receptions
then let US have bake to brigh-
ten up the High School Rooms.
Some other way, if possible. The
Bake is the last resort.

in accepting membership, recently
said:
There must be a just anu settled
peace, and we here in America
must contribute the full force of
our enthusiasm and Of our author
ity as a nation to the organizations
that cannot easily be shaken. No
nation should be forced to take
sides in any quarrel in which its
own honor and integrity and the
fortunes of its own people are not
involved; but no nation can any
longer remain neutral as against
any willful disturbance of the
peace Of the world. The effects Of
war can no longer be confined to
the areas of battle. No nation
stands wholly apart in interest
when the life and interests of all
nations are thrown into confusion
and peril. If hopeful and gener-
Gus enterprise is to be renewed, if
the healing and helpful arts Of life
are indeed to be revived when
peace comes again new atmos-
phere of justice and friendship
must be generated by means the
world has never tried before The

Joint guarantees that, whatever is
done to disturb the whole worlds
life, must first be tested in the
whole worlds court of opinion be-
fore it is attempted.
