DANCING AND THINKING

The Prince of Monaco has done this country some service by pointing cut Il Teassuring truth regarding the status of the national soul
 He sees. as others do, that in Amer =ica as elsewhere. there k more light headedness in evidence. more dancing and gambling. more frivolity and vice of all sorts. But along with il he ob- serves a striking contrast. The war, be says while making the silly people siIlier, has made the serious minded persons more serious" Along with the frivolous wasters there are, other peo- pie hankering after science and learn ing more than ever before
 Thus, while the effect of war has been to shake up more froth in soc.ety, it has also shown more solid contents chan people were formerly aware of.
 The important thing. an American editor remarks, is how far the one eff feet balances the other. The friNolity has certainly been more obvious the last year or two. Many moralizers have been almost driven to think that the results of the war were altogether bad. We are not likely ever to consider them altogether good, but good iS coming out ,sf the conflict, after all. Even now the solid contents of society are making themselves felt. The sober, forward looking part of the nation and mankind may yet control things, and prove their control so plainly that even the frivo- Nous will see the drift and respect it. -Four States Press.
