President Says Great Hope of Ma

Washington, Sept. 2.-President
Harding, speaking at the opening of
the fall term of the Army War College,
declared no matter where the best
aspirations of the world lead us there
never may be a time without the neces-
Sity for armed forces
The president in his brief address,
however, pledged the 200 officers in
his audience that during his admins
tration they would never he called to

not enter into with all their heart
and soul as Americans
Referring to the situation in the
West Virginia coal fields, the president
declared
eve ought not to have conflict like
that which is going ON in West Vir-
ginia 1t is due TO lack of understand
ing"
Mr.. Harding said there were two
relative essentials to the civilization
to which we all aspire; one is an I'M
Ierstanding among men at home and
The other an understanding between
nations" "
The president expressed the belief
The time was coming when the bur
dens of armament could be diminish

ed, that there will be less of armies
and navieS.
Declaring that through four thou
sand years of pagan history and two
thousand years of Christian civiliza-
ton the world only lately had come
TO a civilized state of armed warfare,
the president reiterated he thought it
perfectly futile to think there never
may be armed conflicts"
I'VE of America, without unneces-
Iary boasting," he continued, have
come nearer to civilized warfare than
any other nation"
The president declared 1.-The trouble
with the world is that there are too
many theorists who know nothing of
actualities. Whoever" he added,
brings practical experience into play

an honest study of their authors, more

Cart Won Doren, in his opening chap

and the rising Of our first stars Of
magnitude. Then follows that wizard
of the sea, Melville, and the reflective,
moody and poetic Hawthorne. At last
the trickle has become stream.
Down through the years the historian
journeys to the present, to the two con-

Hugh Wynne, Janice Meredith and The

accuracy in matters of history and

from Moby Dick. "To any meditative
Magian rover this serene Pacific, once

his adoption. 1t rolls the midmost

English Speech
Survey of Our Language
From Earliest Days

HISTORIC ENGLISH BY James C. Fer
nald. Published by Funk & wagnalls
Company. $3.50.
Wv T HEN DR.. James C. FernaId com
w pleted his manuscript, Historic
English, his life work was
ended, for it was the last book from
his long-busied pen. The wealth of
his rich knowledge of our mother
tongue and his acquaintance with the
beginnings and growth to dominion
of the English-speaking races are
blended to good effect in this book,
which traces the development of the
language as shaped by history and as
exerting retroactive influence on men
and manners.
Of the ten chapers in this history,
those on Anglo-Saxon in English
Speech, The English Bible and English
as q World Language, strike us as
perhaps the best, because most illuni-
mating, evidently written in a spirit of
devotion to the work in hand. The last
of the three is closely argued plea
for unity Of England, her Dominions
and the United States through the
amalgam of common tongue enriched
by the heritage Of noble literature.
THIS book should prove to be text
book of value for schools and col
leges. 1t has yet higher mission in
it's possibility of acquainting mature
minds with the fascinating and i'm.
portant story of the growth to fullness
of expression and splendid power OF
the English language.
