Absenteeism.

The Senate is troubled with alb
senteeism. Nineteen republicans and
twelve democrats did not respond to
their names Thursday when votes
were taken on important amendments
to the tax bill. A third of the cham
ber did not function on a question OF
the highest concern to the whole coun'
try.
Naturally, Leader Lodge is i'm
patient with this neglect Of duty, and
has called upon the members of his
party to return to base. As the repub
licans are responsible for legislation
he wants the full party membership
on deck while legislation is being
shaped.
II no recess had been taken; If q
long siege since early spring had re-
mained unbroken. some excuse might
stand for this condition of things. But
senators recently rad a breathing
spell of four weeks-time enough in
which to put their more pressing pri'
yate affairs in order.
But. in any event, Uncle Sam has
the first call. His affairs are very
much in disorder, and need to be put
in order. And the job has been com
mitted to the republican party. Sc
that, if the job is to be well done, the
republicans Of both houses Of Congress
must be strict and regular in their at,
tendance on Capitol Hill while the Job
is in hand.
Gen. Forrest Of Confederate fame
said that the art Of war was to git
thar first with the mostest men," The
republicans have "the mostest men,
in both House and Senate. and should
present them in numbers whenever
the occasion demands control.

Practical Peace Impractical.

In these days idealism has become
a reproach. The practical has be-
come paramount. We are even talk
ing world peace on a bread-and but
ter basis. Wise men are to meet and
try to devise plans that will make It
unnecessary to murder men-and all
in order that the tax burden of the
world may be reduced
The peace-or rather the confer
ence on the Limitation of ornaments
soon to be held at Washington is a
gathering called for the purpose of
discussing economic issues. No
moral issues have been stated. AS far
as the call is concerned, war is all
very well with this exception. 1t is
so very expensive.
Now, as a matter of fact, It is i'm
possible to achieve peace on a practi-
cal basis, because the practical thing
for q strong power to do is to take
possession of the valuable properties
held by a weak power. When we
separate peace from ethics We have
a peace Of convenience-a peace that
is without either ethical or SUPER
rational sanction.
The things that we consider right,
those things we will do. And there
is ne escaping that conclusion. In
deed, there is no reason why we
should not do the things we consider
right. II wars are sanctioned by our
ethical and religious leaders, we will
fight.-Johnstown Democrat (demo-
cratic).

Glorious Sunsets.

Beautiful sunsets are valued by
those to whom natures varying sea
sons make special appeal. The spring
has its own sort Of sundown; summer
has its twilights, and now autumn
comes with glories Of red and emerald
evenings. To those who are so stu
ated that a view is possible Of the
western sky, the present month is re-
vealing some beautiful pictures as the
sun goes down. These mild October
days seem to demand glorious sunsets
in keeping with the charm that has
possessed the previous hours. The
last few evenings nature, in lavish
mood. has spilled her colors through
the sky in prodigal array. piling red
and gold and a peculiar emerald to.
gether to make one colorful' scene.
Placed on canvas by a master hand
the average spectator would say;
There never was sky like that"
But here they are, to be enjoyed for
the looking. Washington is blessed
with many beauties. not the least Of
them at this season being the glory OF
the sunset. ...

Communistic Madness.

The degree of insanity which enters

a demand for the release of two Italians

Of the United States had nothing what.

accused is not recognized. Sacco and

pened to be communists. On this basis
radical communism insists that if they
die in extenuation of cardinal crime
Americans who had nothing whatso-
ever to do with the just processes Of
the law of Massachusetts must pay
with their blood for those processes.
The fate of Sacco and Vanzetti will
not be altered by assassinations or
other lamentable tragedies abroad. In

the case in point. and in the mon

test against justice assumes, the

The "Work, Study, Play" Plan.

A careful study Of the survey report
submitted by the bureau of education
to the Senate subcommittee q educa.
ton in the District will doubtless pre-.
cede any constructive legislation look
ing to the cure Of the local school con.
sestion. 1t does not follow that the
recommendations Of the bureaus ex-
perts will necessarily be approved, but
the principles proposed are worthy of
the most thorough consideration.
The basic conception Of the bureau S
plan is that the school building should
he used to the maximum Of its pos.
sibility. To this end it should have an
equipment Of workrooms in addition
10 classrooms. and a large playground
within or out Of doors. For under this
proposed system Of work, study and
play" the children rotate from one
phase to another of their days ac-
tivity. This is a complete departure
from the long established custom Of as.
signing reserved seat" to each child,
under which necessarily the capacity
OF the school is limited to the number
OF seats. permanent or temporary.
Already beginning has been made
here on the platoon system, which was
adopted at the recommendation Of
former Supt. Thurston as relief from,
the severe congestion Of two years ago.
But few Of the existing Washington
buildings are adapted to this system.
Most Of the local structures are built
on the old "one-seat.to-a-child' plan,
and many Of them are without ade-
quate recreation facilities, some of
them with none whatever. The only
way to use most of the local buildings
on the platoon basis is to turn the
children into the streets for part of
the day.
The bureau survey notes the fact
that the plans for buildings appro.
l,riated for in June last do not provide
for the work. study, play" system,
and though 1t does not recommend
that they be changed, it urges that
future plans be drawn upon that basis.
1t is for Congress to consider how far
it can go in replacing unsatisfactory
old buildings with new ones of the
more approved type. The urgent need
today is for more school room. and it
follows that a wise provision of new
buildings will take into account the
best thought Of public school construc-
tion. assuredly providing in every in
stance for proper recreation facilities.

Again we hope to meet thee,
When the days of life have fed,
And in Heaven with Joy to greet thee
Where no farewell tears are shed.
Dearest loved one we have Land thee,
In the peaceful graves embrace,
But thy memory shall be cherished.
Till we see thy heavenly face.

And the sunbeams longs to hnger.
