Discussed Genius.

Even the art students are denied
little fun nowadays. Aspirants for
fame were recently informed that for
their years competition for the Prix
de Rome they could submit either "A
Nude Boy" or "Prometheus.'
These themes seemed rather hack
neyed to the ambitious mind of youths,
and the students protested, pleading
for some less banal test Of their pow
ers. The protest was ignored, and
one of the students, in the exuberance
Of his disgust, proceeded to ridicule the
decision Of the authorities by himself
posing as "a nude boy" in one of the
windows of the Ecole DIES Beaux-Arts.
The Philistine residents in the
Beaux-Arts quarter were much scan

TWENTW YEARS FROM NOW

What does the future hold in store
for us as a nation? Within the next
twenty years, unless there is a radical
change for the better in the relations
of labor to capital, we will be torn by
internal discussions, if not prostrat ted
by open civil war. Present conditions
can not endure forever.
If the smouldering discomfort now
prevalent breaks out into revolution it
will leave lis nation of cripples from
self inflicted wounds That will be the
psychological moment for foreign
nation with grudge to launch an in
vasion against us with every hope of
definite results.
The animosity between labor and
capital must be removed in fair and
just manner, for the permanent good
of both sides and of the millions OF
people in between. 1t is more profit
able for the future than to bemoan the
past.
