Into the Silence

Into the silence
Into the silence they vanish
The silence so strange and SO deep,
And see them no more but in vision,
] hear them no. more but in sleep.
The faces I Cherish. the voices
Whose music 1 miss day by day.
They were not of the things that
perish,
And they never have faded away.
They have only passed into the silence.
That veil-like divides them from me.
From me who am mortal imprisoned.
While they are immortal and free.
They dwell in the light that is per-
feet,
1 walk where the shadows lie deep;
But they cast their protection around
me,
And guard me awake and asleep.
They dwell on the side of the silence
That's as voiceful and joyous as
vast;
They have passed through death $
luminous gateway,
And they know the great secret at
last.
While l. on this side, see but cimly.
Hear family. Yet lift up my head,
And see your sweet eyes. y Beloved.
And / know you are living, not dead

CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS
ARE IN THE COURTS
(AssOciated Press)

Boston, Nov. 29.-The controver-
sizes within the Christian Science
church came before the full bench of
the supreme court of Massachusetts
today, for arguments on questions of
law. The disputed points largely rep
resented exceptions. taken to the
findings of Judge Frederic Dodge,
who, as master in the original suit
brought by the trustees of the Chris
tian Science Publishing Company
against the board of directors of the
church, sustained the plaintiffs in their
main contentious.
Since the litigation began in March,
1919, it has assumed various phases
through intervening suits. but broad
y speaking the outstanding issue is
whether the authority of the board OF
directors of the Christian Science
church extends over the trustees Of
the publishing society, which pub
fishes the Christian Science Monitor
and other church periodicals. Judg'
Dodge held that it did not.
The arguments will occupy thu
time of the court today and tomorrow
the total of ten hours allotted being
divided among counsel.

BRAZIL is AFTER
ITALIAN IMMIGRANTS

Rio de Janeiro, Nov. 5.-Professor
Vittorio Orlando. former premier of
Italy, here in the capacity of special
Italian ambassador. is expected to in
itiate steps looking to the signature
of an agreement with the Brazilian
government which will stimulate the
flow of Italians to this country.
Italian immigration in Brazil suf-
fered in 1902 through the Prinetti de-
cree which prohibited Italian immi-
grafton under individual or govern
mental subventions. This action was
taken by the Italian government aft
er receipt of the report of Adolpho
Rossi, special delegate to Brazil, who
strongly condemned the system of
colonization adopted in the farming
districts of Sac Paulo.

army" Mr.. Baker continues, "not
merely another army than that which
existed prior to the war, hut new in
it's attitude toward the country and
the country's attitude toward it. The
extent to which new era has dawn
ed for the army is shown by recruit
ing. The difficulty in securing the nec-
essary enlistments for our small pre-
war army has in large part disap-
peared and although the stimulus Of
active operations has now entirely
disappeared the total strength Of the
army Nov. 8. 1920, was 213,067."
Mr.. Baker declares that the one
year enlistment period authorized by
Congress has not justified itself and
asserts that "from the point of view
of the efficiency of the army one-year
enlistment periods are of little value"
The report reviews at length the
new educational and recreational
program established since the war
end declares that 'the time will come
soon when the peace-time army viii
be throughout an educational institu-
ton from which men viii graduate
better equipped to enter civilian pur-
suits and with larger and firmer
grasp on citizenship and its response
bilities and privileges"
The total cost Of the war through
the war department is placed by the
secretary at about s13.73O 300, 500 and
it is stated that in the liquidation of
claims and contracts the department
saved the government 81 per cent of
the outstanding obligations at the end
of the war.
Discussing the disposal of surplus
war stocks, Secretary Baker recon-
mends that in the future the depart
ment's plans keep in mind an effort to
have on hand at the termination OF q
war supplies of a character. so far as
consistent with army needs, that
could readily and quickly be absorbed
into the country's commerce.
Declaring that he is happy to leave
to his successors in the war depart
nent the assurance that Gin any ma.
tionaI emergency they have but to use
and direct the limitless capacity and
willingness of the American people
which spontaneously offers itself
when crisis comes" Mr.. Baker con-
cludes his report with tribute to the
navy and civilian war organizations
for cooperation during and after the
war, and declares that:
ain equipment, personnel and spirit
the army of the United States today
is an object of just pride TO the eoun-
try"

London, Nov. 10.-Hope that Eu-

The circular recalls that according
to the food commisarriat's plans,
roughly 7,250,O00 tons of breadstuffs
were to be delivered to the soviet
government by Dec. 1st but, owing to
the breakdown of transportation, the
Siberian quota of 100000 tons can
only be brought in with the greatest
difficulty, while the Caucasian esti-
mated output of 1,75O,OO0 tons can
not be relied upon owing to the mill

Manchester, Nov. 1O.-The cotton
spinning companies of Lancashire are
paying dividends far too large. says
w. Hopwood, chairman of the boards

Germs was 26 per cent. and the rates
varied from 10 per cent to 500 per

REORGANIZATION
Of THE ARMY
Secretary of Wars Annual Report is
a Most Interesting
Document
(Associated Press)

Washington, Nov. 29.-The post
war reorganization of the army marks
new era in the military history of
the country, Secretary Baker declares
in his annual report, made public yes
terday, as it provides an effective
model on which great. armies could be
swiftly built in times of emergency.
Reviewing the military activities Of
the nation since 1776, Secretary Baker
says that although the United States
was ''the most peace-loving of all ma
tions" it had been engaged in major
domestic or foreign wars about one
cut of every four years during that
period and that the military power of
the country had been in active use in
war or military operations of some
kind about three out of every four
years.
"It is apparent, therefore, that
while we do not need a great stand
ing army we must live in the world
as it is while we struggle to make it
what it should be-" Mr.. Baker says.
ave must have a body of trained men
large enough in numbers to be an eff
fective working model upon which
great armies can be swiftly built in
event of emergency.
"A justice loving people may be
forced by tragic necessity to resort to
war, but it has no right to ask its
sons to fight its battles outarmed and
outshielded by an adversary"
In studying the. lessons of the
world war the war department had
proceeded on the accepted theory that
the infantry remained the backbone
of the army, the report said. although
the Importance of other arms of the
service had been greatly increased by
the swift developments of war.
profound and fundamental changes
in armament were introduced and
many of the instrumentalities devised
are apparently only at the beginning
of their developments" says the war
secretary. "The infantry itself is no
longer the foot-soldier armed with the
musket but the foot-soldier with the
long-range, high-power repeating
rife, the automatic rife and the ma
chine gun. which, in some of its uses,
is analogous to light artillery. The
advance of the infantry is no longer
merely covered by protecting artillery
fire but the path of the advance must
be cleared of distractions and its po-
s;tion, once attained, must be protect
ed by artillery of great power and
extreme mobility"
Mr.. Baker makes no comment on
universal military Graining. a plan re-
jected by Congress in enacting the
new army reorganization bill, but in
reviewing the provisions of the new
military law, he says that one of the
most important features of the legis-
lation is the provision for constant
and systematic relationship between
the National Guard and the regular
army.
This provision, Mr.. Baker declares,
viii do much to prevent antagonisms
(which have in-the past heen the not
unnatural but nevertheless unhappy
characteristic of the relationships of
the two forces"
"The army is essentially a new
