we have long since come to believe,
Mans place today is far from cen
trail. He should be decidedly humble.
He knows infinitely little and what
knowledge he has is for the most part
either a partial understanding of dis
Greet facts or a conventional covela-
ton of different facts, based not upon
ultimate truth but upon the brief con
venience of the leading minds, to the
lesser minds the convenience of the
leaders may be a serious inconveni-
ence."
Professor Wilson is a physicist,
but biologists and anthropologists,
psychologists and Psychologists all
talk in the same strain. Meanwhile
one cannot help asking, what has be-
come of the proved facts of science?
To add to the dismay, a gentleman
by the name of Einstein has come
along with some new" facts, which
he ssure do away with the Newton
ian doctrine of gravitation and the
seemingly sound doctrine of a lum-
%iniferOus ether, and the infiinity of
space and time. Well, who shall we
believe? Einstein or Newton? The
God of the Christian religion or the
God, Science? Take your choice, it's
all a matter of faith. But I know
which brings the most certainty and
assurance and which is most in &C
cordance with human experience. A
God whom we can measure with a
yard stick will never win the allegi-
ance of man. And so l close with
these words of a nineteenth century
mystic when men have spun their
last ~compassable theory of religion,
of science and of life, the weary and
the heartbroken children of men will
be found breaking through the mesh
es of argument, sweeping away the
glasses from divine truth and casting
themselves upon that mystery of
mercy and might which is the
mystery of the Stars"

cARUSo

The king is dead Caruso had his
wish. He died in Italy.
Never will that glorious voice, I'M
equaled by that of any other singer in
the memory of man, be heard again.
Never again will it bring thousands of
music lovers of two continents to their
feet in joyous acclaim. For a quarter
of a century and more he reigned the
greatest favorite ever known on the
musical stage to die in Naples at the
very height of, his career.
From the moment of his first appear
ance on the Metropolitan Opera House
stage in 1903 singing Donna mo-
bile" as it never had been sung before
until Christmas eve year ago, when
he sang last in Ia Juive," he gave
his all to his beloved art, and never
did he face an empty seat whenever
he sang. His versatility was amazing.
He was almost as great an actor as a
singer His repertory ranged from
the heights of tragedy to the most riot
Gus of farce, and it was difficult to de-
termine in which he was best. In full
two score of operas he was, in turn,
the clown, the lover, the tragedian,
and equally effective in all. And when
to this was added that glorious voice,
which he never spared, it is small Won
der that the world was at his feet.
Caruso was true artist. He knew
well how great was his stature, but
never presumed upon it. He suffered
much mental anguish because of the
difficulty in living up to his reputation.
"Alas," he once said, people envy me
without knowing all my cares, without
realizing the efforts l have to make
over and over again to remain on
level with my renown." That was Ca
russo. He was indefatigable in his
work He never shirked. He never
failed to attend rehearsals, and, well
as he knew his roles, he was always
ready to do his full share, for the
veriest detail of a production must be
perfect no matter how much it took
out of him. That, combined with his
wonderful voice and superb acting,
made him great-New York Evening

TRAVELLING cARNivALS

grbe present season has witnessed
the introduction of novelty for this
section in the way of a form of pub
lie entertainment called the carnival.
AS presented hereabouts the carnival
consists of q series of small shows,
grouped like circus under separate
tents, each having something sup
posed to be worth while, and for which
ain admission fee is charged. Some
times, as at Fort Lee, there is a small
Wild West show, of itself of little
Importance compared to the Buffalo
Bill type of show of this name. The
ensemble of these travelling carnivals
is more or less picturesque, and under
the glare of lights at night, makes
an interesting spectacle. But the gen
eral value of the show as a whole is
what makes it fall into the line OF
fakes. They generally draw big
crowds that get more humbug than
show, and when criticism is offered
the question is asked, "What can you
expect?" which is good answer. The
trouble with these carnivals is that
tHey DrlHS W -CoiiihuhlliSo an uh"o
sirable element, aside from the general
cheapness of the small shows they
carry. A number of New Jersey COM
munities have protested the carnival,
and will have no more of them. TAX
ing them at large they do not repre-
sent a great deal, and therefore should
be cut out or else run under a diff
ferent system-principally one that
would improve the character and
quality of what the people pay for.

MAXIM ARRAIGNs POLITICIANS

Hudson Maxim, who is beginning to
be venerable man and lives in New
Jersey, has been contributor to the
cause of peace in human affairs, but
is not pacifist. The way he has CON
tributed to peace has been by helping
to make war too hot for humanity.
He introduced smokeless powder into
the United States and got our govern
ment to adopt it. He invented Max
imite-that very high explosive. He
has been a member of the Naval Con-
sulting Board since 1915. His business
has been considerably with war and
the means to make it and make it
harder, nevertheless he does not ia
vor it. He wants peace Oh earth 50
that he can turn his mind to raising
better varieties of beans and helping
to make life more agreeable. He
thinks, as other people do, that 1t IS
time to take serious thought whether
we can put our wits to better use than
to invent new means of destruction.
But he says in the Tribune:
"The greatest menace to modern
free institutions is the politician. The
greatest menace to civilization is the
politician. The greatest war breeder
in the world is the politician.
1--WE have heard much of the man
behind the gun. There is d man be-
hind the man behind the gun-the pol
itician, who is responsible for all the
gun-fre.
The greatest menace to the wei
fare of the human race today is that
child of corruption and opportunity,
the. politician who or personal advan-
tage will stop at nothing under heaven
or over hell"
Those are unkind remarks to make
about the politicians. But Mr.. Max
i'm is right about the man behind the
gun. He is not going to make war
not at present He has had enough.
Even the politicians have had good
deal of war and are embarrassed by.
its consequences But it is of them
we are afraid--of them and the men
behind them, or, of course, there al
ways are men behind the politicians.

A WORD OF EXPLANATION

I The editor of The Palisadian de-
sires to say that in presenting the
facts of a recent difficulty he had with
one Oskar Meirowsky there is not the
slightest suggestion of vindictiveness
in the act. He feels that Mr.. Meirow-
Sky acted impulsively and without
stopping to think of the consequences.
The publication is made at this time
DIS lesson impressing the meaning OF
obedience to the law AND, proper re-
apect for the public press and it's right
Of opinion under the Constitution OF
the United States
! THE Palisadian has done no more in
driticising the public utterances OF
Dorothy Meirowsky than it has done
in. criticising the utterances OF any
other person, on popular topics OF the
day. The editorial which gave these
people offense was not printed with an
unfair spirit or wrong intention, put
merely to point the way to more
thoughtful procedure. The very head
line of the editorial-"Wrong Form OF
Appeal"-was an admonition really
gentle in construction and meaning,
sort of pointing the way, and was not
meant to be offensive in the slightest
degree. i&
The Meirowskys, however, needed the
lesson of the publicity they are getting
in this issue of The Palisadian, and
they are getting it all with full meas
ure. Whether they are to profit by 1t
is matter for them to consider, and
it is no more than just to say in this
connection that they would be wise IL
they heed the lesson.

er thing these people cannot get away
with is the statement made by both

A lawyer to whom one of the parties
went said that he would mot take a

We had often differed, he said, but he
had too much respect for me to take a
stand against me for a cause of this
kind. These people might as well I'M
derstand now as at any other time
that it will pay to tell the truth that
it will pay to have respect for the in
situations of this country; that they
cannot act in defiance of the laws of
the country and show contempt for
tradition and the best sentiment there
is that represents the manhood of
America. I struck Meirowsky only
after he came at me like a maddened
bull, and / hit him before he hit me,

that l ran away from him or that I am

them an injustice l would have apollo
gized like man and gentleman"
