the Senior Glass of the Academy
department were entertained in the
Girls Gymnasium. The room was
artistically decorated with the
Academy colors, red and green. The
floor was covered with rugs and the
whole scene set off by a coy fire in
the big fireplace. Many games were
played, with good musical accom-
paniment. Refreshments were serv-
ed to all and marshmallows were
toasted in the glowing Goals. The
Grand March was executed. The
girls were accompanied to James
Hall by their last partner and all

feated the Academy team with the
resulting score of i3 TO 10. The

UNIVERSAL MILITARY TRAINING
The Bishop Of Oxford, a prelate OF

The Bishop Of Oxford, a prelate OF
the great Church Of England, and,
we suppose, the representative OF
the most conservative diocese in
Great Britain, has written an article
upon the subject, The Peace and
After" the most interesting part be-
ing observations relative 10 univer-
sal military service in Great Britain.
Upon this subject the RI. Rev. Bishop
says:
dread 10 hear il proposed in this
country TO make permanent pro-
vision for universal military SER
vice. know that the motives of
those who desire 10 see this may be
good. They see the advantage for
the youth Of military service. IL
teaches discipline. But il seems 10
me quite impossible that you can go
so far in turning all nations into
armed corps without developing and
maintaining the military spirit in
all nations, which are sure 10 break
out in wars. Militaryism has a
great fascination, and il is not too
much to say that the privileged
classes look upon the discipline of
the army as the surest method Of
quelling the rising power of democ-
racy.
We congratulate the Bishop upon
his capacity to put a great deal into
very short space. He covers the
field very well, excepting only the
matter Of expense. AS he says, many
Of those who advocate universal
military service are inspired by the
best of motives. Many of them -
il is this country Of which we are
now speaking - really dread that
America will some day be overrun
as was Belgium unless we keep con-
stantly 100000 or more men under
arms. Others honestly think that
military training will be of great
advantage to the youth of the land.
There are still others who rely upon
military discipline 10 quell the ris-
ing power Of democracy, and make
the people "obedient"- that is, will
ing to let others think and act for
them. Moreover, there is nothing
more true than the Bishops COM
mentary that a system that turns
nation into an armed camp in
time of peace is paving the way for
war.
The article of the Bishop of Ok
/ ford is all the more important be-
cause it comes right after q public
statement by Prime Minister Lloyd
George, of Great Britain, that he
hopes TO see matters so adjusted at
the peace conference that military
conscription in time of peace will
not prevail anywhere in Europe.
Surely, if they propose TO wash their
hands of peace-time conscription in
Europe, we can afford TO put the
suggestion aside in America.
We will add only one word about
the expense. We have heard advO-
Gates of great standing armies in
America in time of peace try to cast
this consideration aside by polite
observations such as Damn the ex-
pense." That is the way people
think in time of war, but they will
think very differently in time OF
peace. Already there is a wide and
reasonable demand for a reduction
of taxation. But we will have to
pay the interest on our debt after
the war and bear our share in the
cost of reconstruction. Unless uni
versal military training be imper-
ative because of world conditions,
we think the item of expense alone
would deter Congress from attempt
ing such a gigantic experiment as
universal military training in Amer

Don't Tease Child.

Teasing has ruined the disposition
OF many a child. The parents are not
likely to be guilty of such conduct, but
older children In the family. or some
other relative. may make the child's
life utterly miserable by constant teas
ing. A thoughtless adult. intending to
be playful, will keep a child struggling
for some object, almost allowing him
to get II over and over again, only to
thwart the child's purpose, and so
causing a wearing irritation.

WHEN THE BOYS COME HOME

When the boys come home, what
will they bring with them2 Some
will bring much more than others.
All will bring visions Of what they
have seen; visions which should
never be forgotten, by the boys or
by their friends. Here are some OF
them:
The meaning of authority.
The exact number of minutes in
an hour.
The Importance of concentration:
only things military on hand, morn
ing, noon and night; no distracting
sidelines allowed during active ser
vice.
Inenlciency, the objectionable Of
fence; no men nor materials wanted
which do not actually accomplish
the purpose for which they are en-
ployed.
The "dead-line" of fifty years, an
arrant absurdity, in military life,
with such names as Haig and Foch
and Pershing and Liggett breaking
on the air.
The preciousness of the Y. NJ. G. A.
hut" as the best available substi-
tute in camp and field for the church
and the home.
The jnestimable value Of such
unseen things as faith, hope, love,
truth, justice, right morale.
The relative small value of any
and all things whose worth can be
measured in mere hundreds of mil
lions of dollars.
The value of a clean, strong, true
man, at home or in France.
The unspeakable preciousness OF
the White Christ" as the Only and
All-suflicient Savior.
But, when the boys come home
what will they find? What have
they a right TO look for? Some
things like these:
A God-fearing, prayerful spirit in
the nation.
The word of God given the first
place and things spiritual given the
right of way by the individual and
the family.
The family altar in every Christ
ian home.
The will and commands and prom
ises of our Lord Jesus Christ, the
central theme and authority in every
church.
Messages fearlessly delivered by
Ambassadors of God, introduced by
Thus saith the Lord" Ambassador:
have nothing TO do with their owl
private views and opinions. They
speak only for their Sovereign.
The culture, richness and inspira.
tion of a Christian reverence, re.
iinement and sacredness becOmin,
the Lords Day, the Lords House anC
the Lords Worship.
Reliance upon the infinite wisdom
and power of the Holy Spirit as oul
Lords supreme gift from the Father
/ for the enlightening, guidance ant
energizing Of His people.
A holy, Christian home, churci
athrill with the glorious life of he
Lord, are priceless treasures. Suci
homes and such churches the boy
have a right to look for when the!
come back. J.G.G

HOW SHALL WE COMMEMORATE
THEIR VICTORY
by Windsor 4. white, President,
The White Company.

hh' W hiA' company
Traversing the Campagna di Roma,
Italy. is the worlds most historic
highway. Time and foe have all but
blotted out the grandeur Of ancient
Rome. but the Appian Way, in al
most perfect condition, has with
stood the ravages Of twenty-five
centuries. II stands today a monu-
ment 10 Roman bodybuilding skill
and an enlargement Of the part
played by good roads in enabling
the Roman Empire for so long
time TO subdue every would-be con-
queror.
France is triumphant today be-
cause she has long recognized the
military value Of good roads.
In winning the war, summed up by
Lord Curzon as victory Of Allied
motors over German railroads" the
highways Of France were OF vital
Importance. Verdun was saved,
the great Somme defense made pos
sible, the Chateau Thierry victory
achieved through the ability Of
French roads 10 carry steadfastly
the mighty engines OF Mars. And
France plans 10 further her excel
lent system Of highways by build
ing a Sacred Way from Alsace to
the North Sea, as a fitting monument
to her valiant troops.
We OF America are discussing
suitable memorials to our fallen and
returning troops. Shall such mem
orials M cold, useless and often un-
seeming shafts Of stone; or useful,
educating and health-giving high
ways - Victory Highwaysi
More monuments. perhaps, have
been erected 10 the honor Of the i'm
mortal Lincoln than 10 any other
man. Yet are many of these
as beneficial from any standpoint
as the great Lincoln highway that
bands the continent?
Investigators tell us that the
economic and moral fibre of any
community is determined by the
condition of its highways. Not by
its schools, nor its church spires,
nor its banks. nor its factory chin
ncys, - but by its roads. Give a
community the right kind Of roads
and these other indications Of ad-
vancement are sure to follow.
What more fitting monument,
then, can we build in honor Of our
heroes than memorial roads, How
can any state county or community
better stabilize the achievements Of
its valiant sons than in permanent
road dedicated 10 themY And all OF
these to be planned and built so as
10 form a great system of Victory
Highways. Victory Highways, that
the lasting defense of America shall
be made certain. Victory Highways,
on which schools will be erected to
teach our children the arts Of peace.
Victory Highways, over which food
will move from farm 10 city and
manufactured products back to the
land.
We may study to obtain the most
magnificent effects in stone and
bronze and marble; We may plan to
erect shafts To the very clouds; we
may hope to dwarf anything that
has been done in colossal architect
urc. But nowhere can we find a
better way t0 appropriate the mem
orial offerings of a grateful nation
than in the construction of perma-
nent roads which in their compile
tion will form a great system OF
Victory Highways.

Twelve thousand chickens that were

two refrigerator rooms buried under
the debris, and until il can be re-
