Curious Effects of the Nation Myth
BY Or. FRANK CRANE
Copyright 1921, by Frank Crsne)

To philosopher sitting up tree viewing spec
tacleS that take place among the sWarming human in
sects the ground nothing is amusing than the
laborlous arguments and the desperate conflicts in
which engage under the strong deuson of the ma
tion myth.
Really all human beings are simply human beings,
but they persist in not thinking of themselves such
but nationals They seem to have the idea that an
American and Mexican differ as the COW and the
horse. And that the Frenchman and the German are
entirely two different kinds of animals.
Which delusion eventuates in considerable enter
tanment for the gentleman in the tree
For instance, there is a monstrous pother about
debt paying and reparatio@S among the nations. All
proceed the assumption that to take gold of one
country and to carry it into another is going to
make good the losses of wars destruction which very
much like taking money out Of the right hand pocket
and putting it over in the left hand pocket.
War did not impoveriSh France alone; it impover-
ished the human race, and the human race will have
to pay for it.
War was not even caused by Germany alone out
rageous as the sentiment may seem; it was caused by
the system Of nationalsms and entire absence Of
any world government If Germany had not brought on
the war somebody else would have brought it on in
course Of time. War flows as naturally from cond
tlon OF international anarchy water down hill
Another funny thing that the tree-dweler observes
the expectation of the politicians that disarmament
either more less is going to stop war; Taking guns
away from men does not preventing their fighting
They still their hands and throw vitriol In
face the next war will probably be fought with chem
ical gases.
There is, as most people outside of Bedlam and pol
iticS understand but way to make war as n1pos-
sibe between Paris and Berlin as it is between New
York and Philadelphia and that is to substitute feder
alton for empire.
This was tried in the experiment of the League of
Nations, but probably tried too soon We are MAX
ing faces at each other again in the fear that we stop
boasting and threatening and buing we shall be de-
fcient in national honor bNl
But even the dullest witted perceived that this
programme would not work, so we have begun again
the long road toward world government by the dsarm
ament conference And now it is proposed to have an
other conference international economics, for Mr.
Lloyd George who has probably the largest amount of
active gray matter of any of the statesmen, Il begin
ming to that the economic maady of the world can
never be cured by one or two nations, but only by
them all. ~
Some day, perhaps may grow up get out Of
our feud stage and realize humanity.

MIDWINTER IN PHOENIX

We hereby invite comparison of a
typical winter day in Phoenix with
the choicest specimens the country at
large affords. The grace of perfec-
tion we do not claim for 1t, since we
desire TO be believed, but il winter
goes more gloriously or more consid-
erately over the heads of any people
within these states we would like to
hear the charge and consider the evil
dence.
Before the sun looks over the east
ern buttes this valley seethes with
color. Every pocket Of atmosphere
and every variation of perspective
furnishes a separate tint. To a
celestial eye looking upon 1t as a
whole the valley must resemble one
Of those pools which the tide leaves
among the rocks and in which the
almost liquid seaweeds exhaust the
possibilities OF chiaroscuro. To be
abroad at dawn is to walk in the
wreck of a rainbow. fallen from
heaven and, splashed over trees,
houses and hills.
Morning is wholesomely cold. We
have no winter in the Winnipeg
sense. One swallow does not make
summer nor does one frost, lingering
for an hour after sunrise, make win
ter. But Ine morning chill SHOShS
the nervous system and tones the
body up for the day. Man goes forth
to his labor with a Vigor unknown in
soft and dangerous climates and with
an eaImestness he would not feel
had Nature not nipped him with this
warning that fIel and shelter cannot
be dispensed with.
In Phoenix the Sun god is supreme.
There is no gloom and but seldom a
respectable threat of it. The sun
brings day in all its fulness, but
aboids excess, Though the air cir
culates and clouds form there is
scarcely wind or shadow. This is a
trysting place for meteorological cur
rents: they come from the Rockies
and from the desert and from the
distant sea to give us the flavor of
all climates without their sting and
bitterness. Winter in Phoenix is the
synthesis of all weathers; the apoth-
easis of climate.

L.i.ur.Iy movement. of Governor Hunt

The longer Former Governor Hunt delays his
return to Arizona the deeper the anxiety the for
anti Huntites and the heart -sicker become his
followers, because of deferred hope Mr.. Hunt, II
he knows with what increasing fear and waning hope
his coming is awaited will surely cut short his busi-
with the department Of state with reference to
Siamese relations about which nobody cares
much anyhow, ana hurry home.
The so-called conservative or anti-H Hunt element
finds much beside the eisurely approach Of the for
mer governor to disturb it. The revolt against the
combined wisdom OF the Phoenix conferees becomes
more and more pronounced. 1t has so far no head
and its activities isolated, but they are being
ordinated. Once under the leadership of the
former governor the radical element will make an end

ton would bring If they were offered
for sale? While no combination Of
circumstances can be conceived that
would lead TO such a possibility, If
the contents of the Vatican were ever
offered for sale, there is not for
tune in the world large enough to
pay the price they would command.
The tremendous extent of the VAT
lean, as wen as the incompatible
amount of treasure it contains, is
shown in the story about a room
which for some reason was walled up
and became lost for centuries. After
a long search entrance to it was
gained through a window overlooking
the roof Of the Sistine chapel. and
the rare decorations of its walls
were again brought to light. 1t is
known that some valuable frescoes
are hidden by wooden wainscoting in
another room once occupied by a
luxurious cardinal, and it is not un-
likely that other art treasures have
been lost entirely in its labyrinthian
extent.
Upon leaving, the visitor cannot
help but turn for a last look upward
TO the window where the lonely old
man OF the Vatican keeps his vigil.
What big thing he represents! He
is virtually a prisoner in his huge
palace, yet all the world comes to see
him. He is without an army, with
out territory, and without a voice in
the councils OF the nations. yet he
rules approximately 275,00O,000 sub
jects with the gentle sway of splri-
tual sovereignty. AS you go away
the bells Of st. Peters begin TO
clang' and you realize il is the hour
of vespers: you realize that the mes
sage of those bells not only rolls
across the fields beyond the yellow
Tiber, but reverberates around the
world.

High school pupils are not welcome in Chicago
dance halls says Miss Jennie Binford investigator
for the Juvenile Protective association because their
address before the Chicago Woman's club on Thurs
day. Miss Binford took care to say she did not OF
"her own knowledge" know of the low morality OF
high school students but was repeating only what
the managers OF the dance halls told her when she
suggested to them the attendance of such pupils at
demonstration OF correct dancing.
Criticism not quite to brusque and sweeping as
this has from different parts of the country in
discussions of lapses from morality but we do not
recall having any from dance hall propr4etors
before. In recent literature on the situation at
Wichita Kansas. to which lately made reference
high school conditions deprecated.
The problem Is one that puzzles, we suppose
all communities and the causes are not FAR to seek.
The main cause is of the age of the pupils
the most dangerous age in which the sexes can be
thrown together: the period OF ignorance and IRE
sponsibility
OF course all high school students are not con-
taminated We suppose that only q comparatively
few There those whose home training saves
them and others with inbred notions OF propriety
and others with sense beyond their years of the
dangers which surround them
But when it to state in which the very
fact that is high school pupil Is sufficient
bar against admission to dance hai, we are pointed
to even more serious situation than we had sup
posed existed and We have come to stage which
requires that something be done.

one would have If he met a man 40
feet tall. Figures and comparisons
can only partially portray the real
magnitude of this colossus. 1t covers
six acres. Its main aisle is an eighth
of a mile long, and its dome is
twelfth Of a mile high. If st. Peters
were flooded the largest ship that
sails the ocean could steam up the
central aisle and its masts would
scarcely reach above the top of the
high altar. II its capacity were taxed
to the utmost a congregation OF SO,OOO
people might assemble within It's
walls, and 100000 more could wait
outside within the enclosure of the
colonnades. In the lofty dome there
is a mosaic OF st. Luke with pen in
his hand. From the great height the
pen seems of ordinary size, but IN
reality il is eight feet long.
on account of its age, and because
it shelters the burial place OF the
apostle for whom II was named, st.
Peters has been called the parent
church of Christendom. When Nero's
executioners led the old fisherman
away to his death, he was so infirm
that he could not carry his cross,
and they crucified him where he fell
beneath its weight. The old chron-
icles state that few weeping Chris
tians knelt there in the yellow sand
that same night to pray, and men
have been going there to worship
ever since.
First a little chapel marked the
spot, then a larger structure covered
it for HOO years, finally to give way
to the present towering pile which
was commenced 466 years ago. Great
toll and great wealth were expend-
ed in rearing this mighty cathedral,
and many of the earths great dead
are asleep in its friendly shelter. 1t
is hallowed by such sacred associa.-
tions that all who enter instantly feel
the spirit Of its majestic solemnity.
The titanic proportions of every
thing. and the age-long story that
is woven in the very woof of II,
appeal to the senses in a way that
can neither be resisted nor explained.
Vatican Has 1000 Rooms
Adjoining st. Peters is the Vati-
can, the home of the Popes and the
largest palace in the world. That
this extraordinary structure is
worthy neighbor of massive st.
Peters may be realized from the
statement that 1t contains 1900
rooms, has 80 magnificent halls,
galleries, grand chapels, 20 courts
8 state staircases and 200 smaller
ones, besides museums, libraries and
archives. It is indeed a treasury OF
art. It is said that the contents of
the Sistine chapel alone are worth
billion dollars. Who could estimate

WASHINGTON, D. C-The new
pope who will be elected in Rome
this week will be the 260th in the line
descending from Peter. Leo XIII.
considered that he was the 26Srd
pope, but since his death five names
have been discarded from the list
owing TO the doubt Of their being
authentic.
The popes have sprung from all
walks IN life. Sixtus v. herded sheep,
Leo X. came from family who were
masters OF Florence because of their
riches, Adrian vi. was the son OF a
ship carpenter, Paul V. was noble,
Sixtus Nv. was a waif, and Plus X.
was a peasant. The reign of Plus
TX was the longest OF any pope, and
that Of Boniface VI. was the shortest.
The former ruled for over 81 years,
and the latter but Is days.
Volumes have been written about
the personalities and eccentricities of
the popes Sixtus Y. was so aggres-
sive that he changed the face of
Rome and the world in five years.
Plus TX. was such a chronic. speech
maker that he delivered All addresses
in a little more than four years-an
average of two a week. Gregory XVI.
was hard headed and opposed the
believed that mechanical industry
would deprive many people of their
means Of livelihood. Macauley says
that Leo X. occupied himself with
canoes, jewels, antiques and new
sauces. Nicolas V. was fond Of books
and had a passion for building. Leo
XII. was cold, calculating and schol-
ariy and accomplished much by his
masterful diplomacy. The private
character of some of the popes has
been assailed, particularly that of
Alexander VI, who was in power
when the news of Columbus discov-
cry OF America reached Rome.
Army Lost in ST. Peters
There are so many churches in
Rome that to visit them at the rate
OF one a day would require more than
a years time. These vary in size
from the small chapel capable of ac-
conmodating only a few persons to
great st. Peters, which is so large
than once when the Roman army
went there to attend mass the as
eembled rank and file fell so far short
of filling the vast edifice that when
the general arrived he looked about
him hastily and concluded that the
army was late. There are 12,O0O
persons in Rome who devote their
whole time to ecclesiastical matters.
st. Peters not only dwarfs all the
other churches of Rome, but ranks
as the giant edifice of the world. A
famous author Hkened the surprise
occasioned by the first view Of it's
towering proportions to the feeling
