1t is the crisis, the test and
turning point for all that we hold
dear. Our country, that is to
say all that is deepest and most
obscure in us. Is on trial before
the world. According as we are
judged now, our future and our
children's future will be light or
dark. And this much is beyond
doubt We shall be judged on
the showing we make in this re-
valuation. do not mean on our
military showing alone, but on
every hidden quality of our ma

heart, leaving nothing unrevealed.
The times are dark. the need is
heavy, the stake Unreasonable.

every one; but you, Charlie, and
you, Herb, have understood. The

of pictures of Christmas day in

So the Kantean categories of

The High Resolves Of Youth.

The High Resolves Of Youth.
My mind looks back to college
days when we three walked to-
gether: the long tramps into the
sunlit west; the taste of wayside
apples; the beefsteak and happy
philosophy of suppers at Joee;
the winter evenings when we sat
around the green shaded lamp
drinking black coffee, and read
ing aloud from the plays of lbsen
or Bernard Shaw; then the break
ing of winter, the return of the
bluebirds, the first canoeing on
the river, swollen with spring
rains; the rapids which hurled us
like arrows over their foam; the
cafp fires in the cool spring
evenings; and at last the long
tramps again, under the sloping
sun, into the western hills, stirred
with the longings. the hopes, the
strong desires which we our
selves but half understood, and
could not then express.
Only-the world on which we
were entering seemed a drab
world. Our hearts beat high
above its weary pulses, as our
spirits revolted at its SNUG COM
placency. We cursed its senti-
ments for cheap, and its gods for
mechanical; we flung challenge
in it's all unconscious face, setting
our hearts upon high deeds.
You know the rest as well as /.
We struck out, we struggled a
moment each in his own way, then
one and all went under. The
deep and aged currents of settled
life were too strong for us. II
was give in, or go under, and we
gave in, accepting the game for
what it was worth, false tho we
knew its value to be; and little
by little, year by year, became like
the rest, drab creatures in a
vague, drab world absorbed in
the mere process of making a
living.
Enter the Great Adventure.
And 10, into the gray fog OF
our acceptance has suddenly burst
the great adventure!

time, mattered.

with vengeance, after l had
quite given up expecting 1t. In
