LIMITATIONS OF MAN.

Men are essaying the tracing of eff
feet TO cause, but their conclusions are
in disagreement, unsatisfactory to the
generality of mankind, if not even to
those who indulge in them. The world
is suffering as it has not before suffer
ed since the food recorded in the Ge-
nesis of revelation; but what wfs said
by our American Emerson is recalled:
"It is the finite that has wrought and
suffered; the infinite lies stretched in
smiling repose'' Contemporaneous
events are marching along, clothed in
habilaments of blood; part of COM
mon earth that but a short four years
ago was teeming- with busy millions
engaged in the business of busy lives,
seems to be hungering human graves.
All this may appear clearer to
coming generations than to the present,
just as we of the present in the light
of history have a clearer understanding
of past causes than was enjoyed by
those who have lived when history was
being made, says Knoxville Journal
Tribune. The finite works and suffers;
"the infinite lies stretched in smiling
repose." The finite reckons time by
years, days and hours; with the in
finite a thousand years are but as
day.

Our most potent contribution to WIN
ming the war in the year has been in
loans, amounting to over $5,0OO,OO0OO0
and the flow of munitions and supplies
from our industries, factories and fields.
The nation has responded nobly to the
call for sacrifice and service. Notwith-
standing official and semiofhcial mis-
calculations and muddling that possi-
bly, could not be avoided, the people,
as a whole, have overlooked these mis-
chances or grimly resolved to make
the hest of them, and have submitted
with good grace in single purposed
determination tC get on with the war.
This voluntary disciplining is the most
convincing evidence Of the national at
titude toward the war, the most COM
plete answer to the occasional COM
plant of popular Indifference or the
need of arousing the country. Fari-
lies and communities that have seen
their nearest and dearest set out for
the front. who have pinched and de-
MED themselves to buy Liberty bonds
war stamps. subscribe to the Red Cross
and kindred campaigns, to save food
and fuel. to sacrifice and serve, are
fully alive to what this struggle means
and why it must be won.

tions recommending the abolition of

at open intercollegiate contests and
organized training or coaching in the
summer vacations, which were de-
clared to be contrary to the spirit
of amateur college athletics.
on the report of a special COM
mittee which considered several
suggestions and resolutions present
ed during the first two sessions the
following resolutions were adopted
by majority vote last night:
That in the opinion of the Ma
tional Collegiate Athletic Associa-
ton, physical training and athletics
are an essential part of education
and that in every college or univer-
sity the department of physical
training and athletics should be
recognized as a department of col
legiate instruction, directly respon-
sible to the college or university ad-
ministration.
Each college faculty should make
adequate provision in the hour
schedule for physical traAning and
athletics"

MOVE TO OPEN
JUNIATA VALLEY
Assistance Asked For Improv-

William Penn Highway

MarysvilIe, Pa, Dec. 2S.--An agi-
tation that is gaining considerable
strength in this section, has been
started to have the proposed section
of the Susquehanna Trail and that
portion of the William Penn High
ay, extending from Amity Hall,
opened as early as possible. Amity
Hall is located near the junction of
the Juniata with the Susquehanna
river.
Petitions are now being circulated
through this territory, addressed to
Governor-elect Sproul, asking that
he use his influence in the matter. At
Newport, which town is most par
ticularly concerned in the move
ment, borough officials and citizens
in large numbers are attaching their
signatures to the petition, which
points out that some of the abund-
ant supply of money which will be
spent within the next several years,
should be used to open up the beau
tiful Juniata Valley between New
port and Amity Hall.
