SATURDAY NIGHT

All thought and all interest the world over are
now centered on Washington. Men and women
everywhere are joining in the prayer that at least
a definite step can and will be taken toward uni
versal peace. These are momentous times; the
Washington conference is even of greater import
ance than the Versailles conference in that the
gathering in the beautiful French city was for the
purpose Of laying down the terms to beaten foe,
whereas the Washington assembly of world states
men is designed to open up some way to encom-
pass the disenthronement of the War God whose
reign is yet undisputed and who so far has not
been compelled to ask for mercy or proffer terms
of surrender. In some respects the conference that
opened today at the national capital is the most
important event in our history save of course our
coming into being. 1t may be that through Gods
good providence this nation may be honored in
leading the way toward better International un-
Outstanding, the forerunner of universal brother
hood. War is bred of misunderstanding and
ignorance there is also the element Of national sell
hshness. selhshness that has existed age after age
among the European nations. Our own skirts
may not be clear in this regard but tremendous
pressure is being brought to bear on the United
States delegation in the direction of pointing the
way toward a mutual understanding by making
the first advances. We must have faith in those
men assembled in Washington today; we must be-
ieve that there is solution for every kind of diff
hculty whether it be in commerce, in industry, in
the science ct government. The application of
the Golden Rule would be most helpful in reach
ing solution

here is another angle of practical nature
that is not to be lost sight of in these deliberations
Unquestionably Great Britain, Japan. Italy and
the United States are anxious to unload the bur-
den of naval upkeep and naval increase that
killing race whose goal is national bankruptcy and
whose toll consists of sorrow and death. The
same holds true of those nations who feel that
they must go on and on shoudering the burden of
army maintenance lest some other nation turn and

las unknown and yet well known;
As dying and, behold, we live


These words from the Holy Scriptures were
used by King George of England on the wreath
deposited yesterday on the tomb of the unknown
American soldier who is sleeping the last long
sleep in Arlington cemetery and to whom was
given the highest honors the nations of the earth
could bestow. That body is the symbol of sacri-
hce that knew no measure but to the bounds of
death. The Valley of the Shadow was the eli
max of that sacrifice. And whose son was he?
He might have been your boy or mine; strong in
his love of life brave in his performance of duty;
coura geous in his loyalty to home and flag Now
he is at rest with thousands upon thousands of his
comrades who persisted that liberty might survive
Is it not proper to throw out the reminder that
this same thing may happen again if the peoples of
the earth do not come 10 their senses? Why all
this distress why all this pail of sorrow and grief?
Only that the Unsuitable thirst for gain may be sat
ished. Can not put into actual practice the
great principles Of brotherhood in this very hour
when these principles are best understoodp The
opportunity would seem to be here now, today.
Why not join in the prayer offered by Bishop
Cailor of Tennessee:
Almighty God our Heavenly Father, whose
Blessed Son came into the world to proclaim
peace and goodwill to men, we beseech Thee
upon Thy children who are sore oppressed
with strife, confusion and discord, let the
sacrifices of and brothers on fields
of blood plead with Thee for the restoration
of peace and quietness upon the earth. Send
Thy Holy Spirit to kinde in the minds and
hearts OF rulers and statesmen the sense of
their obligation to mankind, that war may
be abolished. that ornaments may cease and
that men of all nations and races may dwell
together in unity and concord, to the glory
of Thy Name and the salvation of the world;
through Jesus Christ, our Lord to Whom
with Thee and the Holy Ghost, be honor and
glory, now and forevermore. Amen

Daily Poem
THE sRELIABLEo MAN

Here's to the steadfast, reliable man,
The man with the tongue that's
true.
Who won't promise to do any more
than he can,
But who'll do what he says he'll
do.
He may not be clever; he's often
quite blunt,
without either polish or air;
But, though it's not in him to put
up 'front.'
When you need him he's always
there.
So here S to the man on whom one
can rely,
And here's to his lasting success,
May his species continue to multiply
And his shadow never grow less!

You don't care how soon the party

There are three "Bewares" in the

they came from we don't know and
we know less of what they mean to

good about big corporations; beware
of mentioning advertisers except
when they pay for it," Readers of
this newspaper know where it stands
on religion and corporations. We are
for them when they do more good
than harm. We oppose them when
they oppose human progress and

 Muster En The Bond

An inspector from the National Guard headquarters in Little Rock, will be in Marianna today to in spect and muster into service the first regiment band. Announcement was made several weeks ago that the National Guard officials were inclined to favor Marianna over the other twenty-six towns and cities applying for the band, because Ma rianna had organized two companies of National Guards. At first it was stated the band would consist of tWenty-seven members, but later this number was reduced to eighteen. Through the efforts of Major Rob- ertson, Dr. Wall and a committee from the Lions Club, the acquired number of men has been enlisted and will undergo inspection today.
 Within a short time the govern ment will supply uniforms, music and instruments, and with the CO., operation of the business men will place competent director in charge of the musical organization.
