groups in person with the movies TO
bring the Indian challenge to the boys.

bleeding and war-tired world, but by
America. I do not consider that the
last election was a repudiation of a
league so much as it was repudia-
ton of the methods used by Wilson
to jam it down, the throats Of the
Senate. Of course, it was the off
year in politics for Democrat, any
way. ~
Now that Mr.. Harding is elected 4
am for giving him support. He
should be accorded the consideration
that belongs to great office. hope
the American people will get over the
habit of reversing their policies and
opinions every four years. AS it
was, it was lucky for Harding and
the Republican party that they were
not in the saddle during the last four
years instead Of the Democrats. Had
they been, I should have expected
that the Democrats would have been
against the League, and that there
would have been landslide for the
Democratic party. Such is Ameri-
can politics. 1t is too bad that SO
great an issue as the League of Ma
tions should have been mixed up in
politics-especially the kind of poll
tics we have seen during the last
three or four months. am going
to assume that Harding and con-
gress favorable to him will seize the
opportunity to unite with Europe to
the end that there shall be no more
wars and no more killings; but do
not want a league, that has no power
to stop war or killing.

The League of Nations is thorough
lv organized and functioning body OF
forty-three countries which has been
delivering the goods for some time.Thee
onlv nations not members are the Unit
ed States and it's arch-enemies,Ger-
many. Austria, Russia, Turkey and
Mexico. One of the first things MIR.
Harding has promised to do upon hls
accession to the presidential chair next
March is to assemble about him cot
erie of the country's master minds and
devise a covenant that will be accept
able not only to the United States,but
to all the other nations, too. This is
a precious promise. Its fulfillment
will be even more precious. In the
common affairs of life men do not ex-
change an article with which they are
satisfied, for another, Unless it can be
shown to them that the latter is better
and will prove more satisfactory. Ma
tions, it would seem, are less inclined
to barter than individuals. Thus at
the outset Mr.. Harding will meet with
a two-fold difficulty. Tho hopeful, the
Sentinel with many others harbors
serious misgivings as to the ability Of
the new president to make good his
promise with respect TO a peace con-
tract acceptable to the world, and for
which the half hundred friendly ma
tions will be willing to discard or
"scrap" the League that has been and
is now working satisfactorily and do
ing business at the old stand. =;

CORRECTS MIssTATEMENT

Editor Sentinel:
Il note in the Gazette report of
my speech at the court house the
night before election it was stated
that "Mr. Root vouchsafed the be-
lief that Cox would sweep the coun-
try" That is just exactly what I
did not say. If the Gazette's editor
will consult some of those who were
there he will find that / said that
there would probably be a landslide
for Mr.. Harding, not Cox. In say
ing this I tried to bring out the point
that had nothing to gain, for a de-
feated Cox could not give me any fat
job, and Harding certainly would not
that l was fighting for principle.
! was somewhat amused at the diff
ferent comments. The Sentinel
,(Democratic), referring to what Mr..
Woods and / said, speaks of "the
close attention given to each speaker,
and, above all, the utter fairness of
the speakers" while the = Gazette
(Republican) says, "both speakers de-
livered TRADES against Harding" al
though admitting that "the court
room was packed with by far the
biggest crowd of the campaign" !"
Strange how politics changes our
viewpoint! Similarly two or three
Jealous Republicans have called me a
traitor, and all the Democrats a
patriot. Isn't it funny how we are
seen through political glasses? IT is
that kind of partisan vision that OBJ
scures real issues like the League of
Nations.
If had it to do over again, would
do just what 4 did do. If citizen
can not speak out his honest con-
victions on great issues and candi-
dates without being accused of utter
ing Trades, what is the use v-of
having opposing parties and candi-
dates? still stand for the League
of Nations; and if given an oppor-
tunity I shall, in my humble way,
fight for it again, or one that en-
bodies the essential features Of Ar
ticle 10.
Mr.. Harding will be my president,
and I shall hope that he will back UP
a league that will be more than ad-
visory. A league of nations Of some

Hans would stretch his lanky body
upon the rough floor. while he listened
to the adventures of life and living

him. Hans was very nervous sensi-
