BLACKBERRY

BLACKBERRY
Mr.. Mcknight Black, son of Rev.
and Mrs. Luther S. Black, of Easton,
Pa, and Miss Lucy Brady Grey,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Norman
Grey, of Philadelphia, were married
on November 18th at the home of her
parents by the father of the groom.
After a bridal tour of one week
they returned to their new home in
Philadelphia.
Mr.. Black is graduate of Lafay-
ette College, Easton. He was honor
ed among all the graduates by having
been selected to write and deliver the
ode at the unveling of the statue OF
Lafayette, erected on the college cam
pus by Mr.. Morris Clothier.
The statue was unveiled recently by
Gov. Sproul, the address delivered by
Judge William Shaffer of the Su-
preme Court of Pennsylvania.
The following is copy of the ode
written by Mr.. Black:
The Sword of Lafayette
So like a sword,
So slender, strong and gay,
He came
Not as a soldier comes,
Though in his heart was laughter
And no fear;
Not as a brother, to the call of blood,
Nor chevalier, who follows far
The shout of battle down the wind
But as sheer youth he came,
Ecstatic, clean and strong, sure,
Youth that forever, down all the days,
Turns its face eastward,
Hungry for dawn and restless of
living,
Knowing a secret S**intimate as
heart BEATS
A dream that cannot die.
SO came young Lafayette
For freedoms life, in Youths
bright name,
He drew his sword.
And when on France the shadow fell
Then went there back, a million-fold,
Firm grasped in eager hands
The sword of Lafayette.
These threw their bodies like worn
coats,
Into the flame,
And smiling, snapped the bow of
youth
In high, red tournament of the brave;
For in their hearts they held
The secret and the dream, inviolate-
Hungry for dawn, they leapt
And tore midnight from the sky;
And through the break they made
There shone a moment on the old,
grey world
The CLEAN that fell on Calvary.
So went there back,
For freedoms life, in youths
) bright name,
The Sword of Lafayette,
And now that sword is passed
To other hands. Now lips may kiss
It's shining steel in pledge
OF Youths own mysteries;
To learn, to think, to run with winds,
To find old truth, new friends and
The Unborn ecstasy of life that falls
With evening quiet on college walls
Alive to little things, content and
peace,
Yet stirred by all the splendid quests
That urge and call the heart of gallant
And turn, face eastward, toward the
dawn
Where passed that golden host
Of boys of other days;
Know agony and dream, all hope and
high romance,
And learn at last the secret***
Intimate as heart-beat**
The dream that cannot die.
So passes on
For freedoms life, in Youths
bright name,
The Sword of Lafayette.

voLsTEAD AND HIS COMMITTEE

(Florida Times Union.)
American fanatics imagining that the country
was going to the dogs because there were people
here who ate or drank to excess, have succeeded
in restricting the appetites of millions of temper
ate sober and law-abidng citizens, while millions
more are showing by their disregard of statutes
and prescriptions that they propose to have what
they want, regardless of the frantic attempts of
those who consider themselves the moral guar
dams of the country.
That two medical men-surgeOns it was re-
ported-have said that they did not prescribe
beer in their practice, is not strange 1t has not
been necessary to prescribe such things previous
to a short time ago-but malt beverages have
frequently been recommended by eminent medi-
cal men, and the beneficial effects were pro-
claimed The Vostead committee could easily get
such testimony as it desired and from the brow
beating, insoent manner of conducting the in
quiry, it is not strange that physicians slow
to come forward Their profession is healing
not grand stand playing, and they officially
opposed to such advertising as appearances in
such an inquiry would entail.
If the intention of congress is to make the pro-
hibition enforcement laws obnoxious to
cause their notification by general disgust, then
let it so on record as presumng to dictate med
cine to the physicians and religion to the min
listers The Lakeland Telegram declaring in a
headline that congress is Going Too Far" says:
Prohibition is justifable, if at all, only in
its purpose to prevent the injurious use of al
cOholic drinks. 1t assumes that the only way
to prevent its excessive is to stop all its
, use as a beverage But abolishng beverage
is one thing, and stepping into the realm of
materia medicae and saying that physicians
shall not prescribe this or that, is an entirely
different matter. The bill introduced to
amend the Volstead act by prohibiting beer
in physicians prescriptions, apparently
takes for granted the universal depravty of
our people, including, of course, physicians
and patients. The exceptions to that rule
it seems to assume, are so rare that they
not worth considering If the American peo-
pie as bad this act would make them
out to be, they might well drink them
selves out of their moral and intellectual
misery and have done with it. If they are
not SO bad-and we rather incline to the sec
ond alternative-they should clean out the
Augean stable at Washington by chasing
therefrom everything which sounds like its
ears might be over seven inches long.
And to these sentiments millions will agree for
it is certain that never in the history of the
United States has there been so much conten-
ton over the enforcement of any law; efforts to
show that the opposition is restricted to those
engaged in the liquor business are now we'll
known to be useless. Tile plan undertaken for
enforcement of prohibition and the unrea sonable
restrictions and dictation have caused widespread
disgust where before there was perhaps only the
mdest interest.

BOOK FARMING
Tulsa, Okla, Tribune.)

NlulSd, Okld. 1rlDune.D
The question, what is agricultural" would be
answered very differently today by the agricu
tural colleges from the way in which it was IN the
early days of schools. Formerly agriculture and
special training for 1t seemed PRIMARILY con.
cerned with individual farm processes such as
blowing and planting. Today there are new
phases of the work which the average farmer
wants the schools to help him study Farm man
agement the economics of distribution credit
transportation and marketing of crops all have
an intimate bearing the farmers success, al
though they used to be left to chance and the
crudest of methods
The book taught farmer is longer joke,
hut successful business man. His farm is his
manufacturing plant and all the details of pro
duction concern him, not simply sowing and
reaping harvests. He must purchase raw ma
terials. secure labor, produce the maximum sup
ply for his own needs and for the market He
must know what it costs him to produce and
market his crops. Most of these things were
never thought of at all in the old days of farm

ing vote 1t is now probable that it will go
through the conference committee and be approved
by the president.
While rather a slender thread, it is the one
existing thing upon which hopes of escaping the
crushing tax burdens of a mammoth navy build
ing program can be hung. 1t is therefore up to
the various humane, patriotic and religious organi-
cations of the country to follow the lead of the
Presbyterian general assembly in giving the prop
osition full support
This country does not want any more war
that is to say, the masses. on whom the burdens
fall heaviest, do not want it. Great Britain wants
no more Confronted by domestic problems which
threaten the foundation of the empire, the English
people stand ready to grasp eagerly at any rational
scheme for reducing armament burdens.
How about Japan? The resolution, if carried
out. will force that nation to show its hand. If
Japan is willing to curta her naval program,
there is no reason to doubt the willingness of Amer
lea and Great Britain.
Suppose, however. Japan refuses There is
but one thing to do Japan's influence in the world
is derived from her alliance with Great Britain.
But if it comes to a showdown there is not the
slightest doubt that England prefers the friendship
of America to that of her slippery eastern ally.
Let the United States show sufficient earnestness
make the argument for disarmament strong
enough-let the British people understand we can
not regard as friend any power that stands in the
way Of the only practical steps toward world peace
and the alliance will break
1t is a chance. The Christian and humane
sentiment of America can pacify the world if it
stands together for peace as strongly as it stood
fer war when war was necessary. Miitarism,
backed by jingoism, is strong, but the cause of
humanity is stronger if properly marshaled.

ing or else left to chance frequently with dsas-

In part the agricultural schools have awakened
the farmers to their larger opportunities. In part,
too the farmers themselves have come to realize
their needs and to demand of the schools more
thorough training and clearer perception of the
problems involved. Whatever the cause the
development of the agricultural college courses
and the more business-like attitude of the agri-
cuturists toward their work promise not only
a more Wholesome farm life but a solution to the
whole puzzling question of food supply
