A dreamy sound Of waters,
Falling, ever falling!
Voices of sweet songbirds
To each other calling;
Flowers all rainbow tinted
Springing, ever springing!
On the fragrant breezes
Richest perfume flinging.

A fullness Of delight,

Through regions ever bright,
All balm, all bloom, all beauty,
Like some ambrosial cline,
These are the signs that tell us
OF glorious summertime.

II heard something the other day

to believe, Norcross. It was at one
Of Mrs. Stagford's evenings, and I
was sitting out dance with certain
young woman who shall be nameless.
We were speaking Of the Hendricks,
and she gave me a rather broad hint
that Mrs. Macrae isn't widow at

is FOLLY TO DISARM
Weeks Wants to See u. S. Ready
to Defend Rights.
Secretary OF War Says Only Time Will
Bring People and Nations Back
to Normal

New York. June 9.-Declaring that
it would be the height of folly for the
United States To disarm first, Secre-
tary of War Weeks. in an address
TO the graduating class of New York
university, said he hoped 10 see this
nation prepared TO defend its rights,
its sovereignty and its citizens until
the day comes when all nations by
mutual consent dismantle their forti-
fications and scrap their navies. The
university conferred upon Secretary
! Weeks the honorary degree of doctor
of laws
L do not love war" the secretary
declared. Il abhor il. No rational be-
ing who has a clear realization of its
meaning wants TO have his country be-
come engaged in war, but conditions
may arise which make il. with all its
horrors, the only alternative 10 a dis
honorable peace. Then every patriotic
citizen wants war"
Il do not ansicipate war" Mr.. Weeks
asserted, but there are active and fe-
veriSh military preparations among
those with whom we might possibly
come in contact. And | want TO say
here and now that l cannot give a
moments serious consideration TO the
possibility of war with Great Brit
ain" Such a conflict, he declared,
would. in his opinion, be the end of
civilization.
Il am we'll aware" the secretary
continued, that great many good
people in this country, indeed in the
world, believe that the time has come
when the world should undertake a
general disarmament
Il am entirely in sympathy with
every wise and sane endeavor to bring
about the adoption of a world move
ment with that result in view. But
we must remember that the passions
of war and the disturbances to society,
as well as to the individual, cannot be
overcome or forgotten in a day. Only
time, and a great deal of time. will
bring people and nations back TO a
normal condition.
Under present conditions, however.
it would be the height of folly for
the United States to be the first to dis
arm
worldwide disarmament must
come as the result of an international
agreement and must be done simulta-
neously. Prudence would not permit
our disarming while others hold weap-
Ons in their hands,"
Returning to the possibility of a con-
fiict with other countries, Mr.. Weeks
declared the time had come when this
country must have a definite military
policy. The National Defense act,
which became a law on June 4. 1920 is
the policy which he thought should
govern the army.
