National Soldier Organization.

1T WAS accepted as a matter of course
that as soon as the war was over there
would reformed military organiza-
ton similar to the Grand Army of the Re
Spanish War Veterans. Such an organiza-
ton is now definitely under way. There
is to be convention in St. Louis next
month. The most active leader of the
movement at present seems to be Lieuten-
ant Colonel Theodore Roosevelt Jr
The announced purpose of the organiza-
ton is to offer membership to all officers
and enlisted men in the United States mil
itary or naval service during the war; No
doubt there will be some special insignia,
and perhaps some special degree of honor,
for those who actually saw service in
France. It is only right and fair, however,
that membership is to be open, on prac-
tically equal basis, to all the soldiers and
sailors, even though they never got any
further than the training camp There
were just as good fighters in those camps
as ever fought in France, and it was not
their fault that the war ended when it did.
Lieutenant Colonel Roosevelt explains
the object of the organization as being "to
perpetuate comradeships formed during
the war, to preserve the history of the
conflict and to maintain the principles for
which American soldiers and sailors train
ed, fought and died" These are worthy
aims, valuable to the nation as well as the
men concerned.
Another object is to lay the groundwork
for repulsion of any serious Bolshevik
movement in this country. This Russian
curse has spread somewhat in the United
States under various guises. 1t is consol-
ing to know that there will be around
100000 men-ex-soldiers-ready to vote
down those who bid for the support of such
agencies and to go farther if necessary.

LITTLE STORIES OF THE NATIONS Gs:s.: on hi.


w yITH the decrease in power and
M dignity of the western empire
there occurred somewhat later a
corresponding decrease in the power OF
the popes. In some ways this was inevl-
table. At first the popes ruled ecclesl-
astically over the western empire as an
empire. When the empire broke up into
smaller states their difficulties were
multiplied.
Through political circumstances one Of
the popes left OFF living in Rome and
moved his court to Avignon on the
Rhone. just outside the French border.
For seventy years the popes lived at
Avisnon. and then a Pope returned to
Rome. But now two popes were elected
where before there had been only one.

the eastern church. And yet. for the
rest Of the century the popes were con-
sidered as little more than italian
princes.
During all these political and ecclesi-
nstical troubles that perplexed the ma
lions Italy came to be considered In
some ways the central nation Of Europe.
Unlike other days. Italy now had no
kind OF political power over other ma
tions-the Emperor was gone and the
popes living at Avisnon were less italian
than ever before or after-and, further
more. Italy was cut up into many COM
monwealths and principalities. Never
theless. italy had moro to do with the
rest Of the world than any other nation.
Italy was the country considered tho
head of the arts. learning and COM
mer&e. Furthermore, It had greater
political life than airy other country.
Also. now that the Greeks In the east

Ing before the Turks and the Spanish
Christians. the Italians took the place
OF both as the highest civilized country
In the world. But there was still an
other reason.
Ever since the 18th century there had
grown up in tho minds OF men every
where yearning for knowledge. The
language they knew best how to read
was Latin So tho study Of the old
Roman laws and the great Latin writ
ers tended to turn mems minds to Italy
with deep respect Also. these studies
had marked political effect.
While the revival Of interest in learn
Ing tended In many instances to make
men more subservient TO emperors and
kingston the old laws and many old
writer's were imperialists-it also in
some cases turned men to republican
ideals. But there now came into being
two inventions that were to play
great part In Transforming the world.
