much like Puget Sound as far as

There is one time in the year
when the English women really fuss
up and that is during Fights week at
Oxford, so called because OF the eight
cared boat races. These races were
held last week. People came from
all over the country to show their
best bibs and fuckers and incident
ally to get glimpse of the races.
The river was lined with punts
adorned with gay parasols beneath
which sat young ladies dressed in
colors to harmonic with either their
parasols or their dogs. I saw one
girl who must have spent the whole
year in working out her color scheme
so perfectly did her hat, her scarf

her mahogany colored dog. One
thing which seemed out of keeping

THE parallelism between 1892 and

would have been opposed by its con-

conservative candidate, is being op-
posed by its liberal elements. No
matter. therefore, whom the party
might have picked out at Chicago, he
would have met, in the beginning at
least, divided allegiance.

Breaking Doom the Walls of Hate

French novelist, recently wrote: Il be-

to be officially taught and made OBJ
ligatory IN all the primary schools.
Without that, any serious and durable
international reapproachment cannot
take place. Before the peoples can
understand they must first be able to
hear. Oh, that Esperanto would give
hearing TO these deaf, who during
the ages have been walled up by their
mother tongue!"
The walls between the peoples,
caused by the diversity of language,
are nom the less real because they
are invisible. Recent tragic events
have taught us hat they are walls
of Hate. The League Of Nations can
not achieve complete success unless
these walls are broken down. 1t was
the aim of the little Polish doctor who
gave Esperanto to the world to break
down these divisions by developing
good understanding through the med
