ON THE NEW ROAD.

When you have started forth toward your vision
When you have counted up the gain and cost,
When you have faced the old, old worlds derision
It's scoffing Of all endeavors lost;
When all is said, leave it the sane, wise clinglng
To proven ways you never can recall;
It has not heard your golden trumpet ringing,
o Pioneer, the end is worth it all.
When by your cause you stand, its one defender,
And hear the jeers and anger grow more loud,
When greater men than you, grave eyed and tender
Look on your lone defiance from the crowd,
Then, then the Joy of battle surges m you
The splendor of the quite unequal strife,
And all the strength of soul and brain and sineW
Proclaims that you will win, and this is Life!
Madness and pride? Nay, never heed the shouting
The futures yours can you not wait, 9 youth!
In your divine conceit You know, undoubtng,
That you have found fragment of Gods truth
How shall you fall how shall your faith diminish
Faith less in self than in your splendid dream
You heard God speak to you, and at the finish
Far in the East you saw your vision CLEAN.

THE PEACE PROGRAM.

~ HDWOOD FALLS has never undertaken so
big work, so worth while work, as the
carrying out of the Peace Program which
was adopted by the Red Cross workers several
months ago. This program includes many phases
Of social service work; the completing Of any un-
finished war work for the returned service men,
the assistance Of needy people, the supervision Of
undernourished and mentally deficient children
the ferreting out of tubercular cases and of the
victims of other diseases, the prevention of bad
health, and so on and on, ad infiniturn-so long
as there is social service to be done. It is a
big program and it needs big people to put it
through-people big enough to loses sight Of per-
sonaties in view Of the immensity of the good
Ito be accomplished; big enough to build for all the
tomorrows rather than just for today; big en-
ough to see that the only ultimate help is that
which helps humanity TO help itself; big enough
to see that the health. and happiness and moral
training of one child is worth all the work, and
all the money needed to make that child safe; big
enough to forgeh irritating details and to over
look small defects, looking away beyond these
with eyes fixed on the mountain peak of the
greatest good to the greatest number. Had the
editor of the Gazette the fluency of Lincoln and
the vocabulary of Webster we would expend them
both upon urging, for this splendid Peace Pro-
gram the most complete COOPERATION among
workers that any Red Cross project has ever re-
ceived With co operation everything car be ac-
complished- hout it, nothing! We are now to
20 out on the Second Mile, the wonderful mile
of Privilege of Opportunity to help, ever little
if you will, in winning the great war against
disease and privation and unhappiness in our own
home and with our own people Let US ssgo forth"

ILLITERATE FOREIGNERS.

r1 He PROBLEM Of the ssilliterate foreigners
on whom is laid the blame for much Of the
= present social unrest in OUR problem and
railing at foreigners won't solve it any more
than railing ait the negroes when they occasionally
run amuck will solve the race problem which is
also of the United States own making. These for
eigners were first invited even urged to come to
America in order that the country might profit
by their cheap labor. They have come, have alb
sorbed something of Americas ideas of money
getting without absorbing her ideal Of citizenship.
Their lack of this ideal is what makes them SO
prone Ito listen to every agitator who talk loud
and long, appealing to their emotions rather
than to common sense The agitators are a differ
ent problem and to be dealt with differently but
what the simple foreignborn need is a patient
understanding just what parents would give to
impulsive unthinking children. We must break
down the barrier, must recognize that these citi-
zens need education more than anything else in
the world real education which viii give them
: community of interest with Us foreign born
citizens who came to America a few generations
ago-and now are prone to forget that our ances-
tors too were foreign and possibly ignorant.

of one of these ignorant foreigners" shows clearly
this need for great and loving understanding.

We know now how ito sympathize with the fel-
low who has been waiting all summer for a new
automobile that he ordered last spring. Early in
September we ordered new linotype which we
thought we couldn't live without for more than
few days at best. The contract said it would be
delivered within sixty days-and frequent mes

the self evident fact that shipment had been de-
