The main point is the waste
lful and harmful nagging OF
government chiefs with their
hands full of war work by par
tisan, prejudiced and useless
lcharges and controversies. How
much time of our own Secre-
ltaries of War and Navy, of
heads of boards engaged in
war work, is wasted in answer
ling foolish charges and cor
Irecting false public impress

disgruntled officials or parti-

suggestions of efficiency

Germs nagging and bullyrag-

those who seek partisan or per-

what alternative there was to.

Beauty is that intangible, indefinahe
thing that dreams are made from
Beauty is matter of opinion. 1t is
not an existing actual quality. No
two people see beauty in the same
light. What is beautiful to one indi-
vidual is often commonplace to an
other. Consequently it is impossible
to identify beauty, to give it fixed
qualifications.
Somehow, it is human nature to ad-
mirc in others that which we do not
possess ourselves. For instance, ! am
