SPRING GROVE
Methodists Undecided as To DISPOSE
ton Of Camp Grounds

No definite action was taken at the
meeting of the Spring Grove Camp
Meeting Association held last Friday
afternoon in the Methodist Church for
the purpose of disorganizing the asso-
citation. The meeting was given over
mostly to debate as to whether to
turn the property of the Association
over to the Burlington district of Troy
Conference of the Methodist church, in
which the local church is located or
to sell the property, After much dis
cussion it WITS finally decided to post
pone the DISARMAMENT of the organiza-
ton until August l3 when another
meeting would be held which it was
hoped more Of the stockholders would
be able to attend.
The Spring Grove Camp Meeting
Association was organized some time
ago and has as its members only those
who own property at Spring Grove
The Association erected an auditorium
and a number of public buildings at the
camp grounds and the disposal of
these was the subject OF the discussion
at the last meeting For many years
the Burlington district has held an an
nual Epworth League Convention for
the Leagues of the district at this
place but recently it was decided to
change the place of meeting to Troy
Conference Academy at Poultney. This
has rendered the property practically
worthless and many of the property
owners have already torn down there
cottages there. The question which
Jises IS what to do with the Spring
Grove public buildings owned by the
Association

FREEDOM CAN COME
ONLY THROUGH LAW
A Professor of Law at Harvard Uni
versity Gives His Views
on Ratification

One of the striking facts about the
international history of the past sew
eral hundred years is the clocklike
regularity with which at the begin
ming of each century cataclysmic
world wars have broken out and
threatened the onward march of civ
ilization, in spite of the contrary
desires of the great mass of the
worlds people. At the beginning of
the seventeenth century it was the
bloody Thirty Years War which de-
vastated Europe like a plague; at the
beginning of the eighteenth century
It was the long struggle between Louis
XIV and the Allied States of Europe;
at the beginning of the nineteenth
it was the far-reaching Napoleonic
Wars which swept Europe like a
consuming fire. At the conclusion of
every one of these wracking wars
the statesmen of an exhausted
Europe, sincerely anxious to guar
antee and secure the future peace
of the world, concluded epoch making
treaties, by which the map of Europe
was substantially remade. in the full
belief that the formula had at last
been found for permanent and en-
during peace. Yet each peace proved
as transitory as the one which pre-
ceded it; and at the beginning Of
the twentieth century we have found
ourselves once again plunged, quite
against the wishes of the great
majority of mankind, into a cata-
clysmic struggle, recalling all the
savagery of the Thirty Years War
three centuries before.
Cause and effect are changeless
and eternal; can any one who reads
history truly doubt but that If we
conclude a peace today, no different
in substance or structure from the
Peace of Munster of 1913, the Treaty
of Utrecht of 1913, or the Treaty of
Vienna of 1915, it will be only a
question of time till we are once
again engulfed in an even more ter
rible world war than that through
which we have just passed? If the
Treaty of 1919 does no more than
to rearrange boundaries and impose
indemnities, if it allows the contin-
uation of the old international law
lessness, and fails to organize inter-
national society into an ordered
community of states, there can be
no mistaking the fact that all the
agony of the past four years will
have been largely in vain; for as
surely as night follows day, within
measurable reriod of time we
shall have to face the same agony
again.
International lawlessness may have
suited well enough at time when
states were in fact self sufficing and
insulated units. But that time has
passed. Whether we like 1t or no,
internationalsm has come in fact.
Since the Industrial Revolution some
great nations have transformed
themselves from agricultural into
great industrial communities; the
very existence of these nations de-
ponds upon the uninterrupted inter-
national exchange Of their manu-
featured goods for raw products and
foodstuffs. If England were cut on
from international intercourse today
she would starve inside Of a few
months. Morally and psychology
eally, no less than economically, ma
tons have ceased to be isolated
units. The national Prussian theory
