'Twould Do a Lot Toward
Winding Up the War

Uncle sam is getting UP some 'camou-
Aage" units Of amateur artists
To "camoufage" you fool the enemy
aviators by painting a cannon so that il
looks Ike a log. or log to look like a
cannon or you make munition train
look Ike roadway and SO on - the
more YOU make things look ike what
they amt, the more Of q "camoufager
you are.
The American amateur artist is sure
the boy for this job, and we're not for
'camouAage" to the hilt
We'dshke TO ask Uncle sam if he has
any war space for amateur poets
If ne has. We know where h. can get
fa.r-sized cohort.
Putting our amateur poets beside our
amateur landscapists in Europe mightn't
do much for the universal brotherhood
vision. but it would create strong de-
sire for peace!

Prices On Property
AS Well AS On Men,
And Well Be In Right

Against government fixing Of prices
on steel and copper. Of which govern
ment needs all that can be produced, this
argument, or plea, is brought:
1T would drive out Of business (proft-
making) many small producers whose
mills or mines are at a disadvantage in
location or equipment.
1t is high time that the government
and the people fully realized that this
war. temporarily at least, means autoc-
racy and socialism.
The steel trust reports a profit Of
S146000,O00 in three months.
It's pure blood money
What's true Of steel Is. IN degree. true
of almost every business Of making war
material.
To say that this thing must be per-
mitted because small producers cannot
otherwise make profits is TO say that our
war management must be kept at the
mercy Of combinations and war-proit
hogs generally
If small producers Of steel and cop
per can't operate proftably under prices
fixed by government their plant should
be taken over by the government and
operated 10y the government The gov
eminent has simply got 20 have All the
steel and copper it can get hold Of, re-
CARELESS Of private profits
Such a step may he positive au'ocracy
and positive socialism but ail minds have
got 10 he cleared of the obsession that
our part in the war is going TO be per-
formed without sacrifice by anybody
When we take a human being and put
him in the ranks at s per day do We
ask If il is Improbable TO him?
We do not.
We only consider the advantage TO the
country.
When we get TO considering property
in the same spirit. we VIII really be in
the war as We should be-
And We might as well realize that
events are surely going to force US into
just exactly that position.

Always word goes further than an
argument.
a word may be only sign or picture
of an idea. but il has a certain uncanny
power in itself
Having got my thought once uttered
| find that utterance from somewhere
ut in the infinite has taken on strange.
magnetic potencies, and comes back to
ne meaning more than it meant when it
eft me.
The final argument is calling names.
All contentious resolve themselves event
ually into bandyng epithets.
In the rites of the ancient mysteries
much was made of search for "The
Word, some awful name. the very
vocalization of which was supposed TO
carry supernatural influence.
1t was the name Of the Holy Virgin
that rived Tannhaeuser's grotto where
he had been unclaimed by the charms
Of the heather Venus.
so among the ancient Jews the name
Of Jehovah was sacroSanct, and one
would not step on piece of paper for
fear the divine name might be printed
on il and in the apostolic church il was
stated that the Father had given to His
Son "a name that should be above all
other names
This is because every system, every
group of ideas. aims. and feelings, cus-
ters at last about some one word as its
symbol
The mind cannot retain long argu-
ments and many proofs. but ii can hold
one word, especially when it evokes
strong and primitive emotions.
And the intellectual or rational con-
tent is soon lost in the sentimental.
A man is not a Democrat" or "Re-
publican" Catholic" or a Methodist"
nor German" or "Frenchman" because
of any mental process he has gone thru.
ful feelings and speedily become handy
and universal substitutes for morality.
The moment man begins 10 examine
one Of these words, and TO make an ar
gument Of it, he is lost. He is on his
way to become a mugwump in politics.
a hereto in religion, a pacifist IN world
matters. For these are the dreadful
Dogs that await the wandering feet of
them that depart from the safe tutelage
Of words.
And | am not so sure this is wrong.
The heart is probably a more reliable
machine than the mind. And men and
women feel their way forward to their
destiny perhaps better than they could
think and reason their way
Says Joseph Conrad II is better for
mankind to be impressionable than to
be reflective Nothing humanity great
great l mean as affecting whole mass
Of lives-has ever come from reflec-
ton"
Still, perhaps it is just as we'll that
there arc a few left who think.
For Francis Bacon in his Advance
ment Of Learning shows how learning
"taketh away the wildness and barbar-
ism and ferceness Of mems minds! and
taketh away all levity, temerity and in
soency, by copious suggestion of doubts
and difficulties, and acquainting the mind
70 balance reason on both sides" And
greatest Of ALL that (Which hath ration
en- totius," he declares, is that learning
"disposeth the constitutions Of the mind
not to be fixed or settled in the defects
thereof, but still to be capable and sus-
ceptible Of growth and motion.
