Mrs. Ridgeway brought to us things

IS PUBLIC OPINION
TO BE TRUSTED,

The Citizen stands committed to
the League Of Nations idea in its
broad outline, at least, but we are
aware, nevertheless, that on nIcs-
ton so large and Of such momentous
Importance there is room for honest
differences of opinion which should
be respected. We also believe in
the doctrine Of open diplomacy. and
freedom Of uttcrance in the public
welfare, and for this reason we ara
giving space TO the following letter
In which the writer takes exception
TO The vote taken, at the gathering
sunday afternoon as not really rep
resenting the sentiment of Berea. He
also questions whether thinking
man who may dissent from the
League OF Nations idea should b.
classed as fool or a pro-German.

Col. Hugh H. Colyer's splendid

on the Speedwell pike, about noon
Saturday. Colonel Colyer said that
he valued the place at about 5000

protection on it. He has no idea
how the blaze started. Mr.. Chris

To some of us il seems that the

Of afternoon gatherings. Had Wash
ington listened TO public clamor m

monumental policy Of isolation but

FINE HOME BURNED

Fire destroyed the home of C.. A.
Moore on the Dixie Highway here
Monday morning.
The fire, which caught on the
roof, was discovered by students,
who gave the alarm. Al the time Of
discovery II had little more than
started, but on account Of the lack
Of means TO put IL out the house was
soon enveloped in flames.
Almost everything was saved and
several doors, windows, etc, were
torn off in time TO keep them from
the fire.
The house was a two-story struct-
ura the worth of which was esti-
mated at $1,000, with no insurance.
A great many students and cit
izens were on hand and were OF
great aid in saving the household
effects.
The sad lack OF facilities for fight
iBg fire in Berea was again demon
s.rated, and should lead to prompt
measures for future protection.
The College has shown a good spiri,
in Offering assistance to their neigh
bors in case of fire, but the supply
Of water and the fire fighting equip
mcnt has proven entirely inadequate
in most cases to render any real
service.
The necessity OF watching and
waiting while the fire destroys a
splendid house and comfortable
home is not a pleasant experience.
and naturally leads one TO devise
some way TO prevent a, recurrence
Of such an event.
Even good chemical engine in
working order would have rendered
valuable service in saving the great
er part Of Mr.. Moore's house, had il
been put TO work when the flames
were first discovered. Fortunately,
no wind was blowing or the neigh
boring houses in the path Of the
breeze would likely have been
burned.
The erection of stand-pipe by
the town OF Berea, in which to store
water for protection against fire.
could be accomplished at reasonable
expense which no fair-minded tax
payer would object 10.
Have we not had sufficient warm
ing concerning this crying need to
arouse us as town TO provide pro-
lection against fire before another
costly blaze occurs.
Taxes may be high. but building
material is higher when accompan-
led by the consequent loss Of a de-
structive fire.
Shall we prepare now for the
worst. or wait for the worst before
we prepare?

LASTING PEACE

Sunday afternoon in the College

the cooperative. The first two have
failed 10 keep peace and il is time
10 try the third.
Z The speaker maintained that the
League Of Nations is not contrary

States but is a fulflllment Of il. The
plan for preventing war was out
lined and emphasis placed on the
factor Of watchfulness and publicity
which its constitution provides.

that England could be relied upon

Dear Sir:

'F'hi Nils
Doctor Robertson. during the
course Of his remarks ON Sunday
afternoon concerning the League of
Nations, said that il was our duty
To inform the Senate Of the pressure
Of public opinion for the adoption
Of the constitution Of this proposed
league. Accordingly. a resolution
was introduced by Doctor Raymond.
This resolution is 10 be sent Go the
United States Senate as an express
sion Of public opinion on the part Of
Berea citizens. It's adoption was
unanimous.
Now The question TO be asked is
this: should such petitions have
any effect in influencing our treaty
making body?" How many Of tho e
who voted for the resolution knew
just what they we're voting for?
How many had read the constitu-
ton Of the proposed League of Ma
lions. How many had weighed
calmly and deliberately the effect
that such a step would have on our
national existence?
Probably il is best that the Senate
should ratify the constitution and
then, again. il is barely possible
that the senators, who are demand
ing a little more Interpretation OF
this instrument before an unquali-
fled endorsement. are swayed by n
genuine feeling Of patriotism and a
sense Of fear for such bold step.

capitalistic greed as was minated
by Doctor Raymond.
