AT GENEVA.

This week has seen the gathering at
Geneva of the League of Nations in its
first official regular session. A Belgian,
Paul Hymans, head of the Belgian dele
CATION, was chosen permanent presi-
dent of the assembly. The league got
right down to business, the thing they
were gathered for, and If the members
do not get einto action and do some
worthy thing for the world to approve
there will probably be disappointment.
France and England are at the ses-
sion, on the best of terms, as are also
Japan and Italy, the other members of
the Big Five who formulated the trea-
ty of peace and the League of Nations
at Versailles. The fifth nation of the
Big Five was conspicuous by its alb
sence. The reader may guess which
one it was.
The trouble brought upon the whole
world by the formation of the League
of Nations will probably die down aft
err awhile. The general public has
grown tired of the wrangle over it.
The discomfort through all Christen-
dom, while not beginning to diminish
to any extent, has reached state of
callOusness which, while not yet to be
called indifference, may be called some
thing close kin to it-ennui. 1t is nat
.ural that the world should await with
anxious expectancy the net result of
the laborsz of the league. If it can
function and get start on the long
road it may have to travel; if the
league gets into workable organiza-
ton, with strength and direction, it
may have goal centuries ahead. And
why not? If it had started with Amer
lea in there might never have come an
end to it. But unless something devil
ish gets into the affairs of men and
somebody upsets calculations a long
era of peace may even now be in store.

Think and Thank"
Suggested Motto
for Nation Today

'Think and Thank was the motto
upon the family crest of the great He
brew philanthropist Sir Moses Monte
fore. 1t would be an appropriate
armorial motto for America today.
These two little English words, differ
ing In single vowel, were originally
identical. In the Anglo-Saxon tongue,
"thank" was "think." Thanking
comes from thinking. and thankful
ness from thoughtfulness and thanks
giving from thought-giving. This will
be season Of unusual thanksgiving
for we are made to think as we have
not been wont to think. It will be
very selfish soul that this season
fails to think Of the sorrows and the
sufferings Of others.
Look back at that first American
Thanksgiving. Strange skies, sparse
settlements, sparse larder, savage en-
envy, but thankful spirit What makes
the memory of the Pilgrim so pre-
cious? His thankfulness AS Howell
puts It:
1T is no improper comparison that
q lhdAAlu Vi nCdIl 10 Llhc Il UO4 VI DTG-
cious ointment which keeps the smell
long after the thing is spent"
The Pilgrim and the Puritan have
passed on. but they have left us a
precious possession-a Thanksgiving
day and the. Thanksgiving spirit.
Theirs was the indomitable spirit be-
cause they thanked God and took
courage" They landed undesignedly
on ''rock-bound wintry strand" but
they thanked God and took courage.
They found no gold, but they did find
the golden grain of first harvest and
they thanked God and took courage.
They found rude wilderness, but
they thanked God and took courage,
and burrows were turned and towns
were built and cities grew and facto-
ries f1ourished and culture developed
and instead Of wilderness a garden
blOssomed and the fragrance Of their
memory still survives and the spirit
Of their grace still inspires.
