petitioners were given leave to with
draw. L. B. Waldron of Dexter is

alleged offence, that his offence was
fornication and no more, and that
the ends of justice have been fully
melted out and more than provided
for the actual offence committed.

MPULSIVE ACHIEVEMENT

The winning of the Alfred A. knopf prize for Columbia students by a young man who wrote the sEccessful series of sketches in nineteen hours reminds of other achievements of inn pulse, possibly less, possibly more worthy. That there is merit in J. War nor Bellah's book can not be doubted, and thus the question is raised whether such merit was present be- cause or in spite of the little time spent over it in the writing. It is re- called, probably correctly, that Oscar Hammcrstoin wrote tuneful opcret- ta between nightfall and daybreak; that the final act of one of the recent ly popular plays was constructed be- tween midnight and dawn, and that in years past some writers of fiction calculated to satisfy boys craving for excitement without failing to present moral lesson turned out thirty thousand word tales weekly for years
 never taking more than fifteen or sixteen hours for each story. If haste impulsivcness, aided such construction where goes the theory of the unfail. ing value of care and pains and thought? If haste harmed, what an- swer may be made 10 those who have done these things, or similar, and who declare that any delay or interruption would have brought failure?
 II would be presumptuous to an- swcr the question whether this young prize winner would have done better or less crcditabIe work had he taken more time to it, and it would be ridiculous to dcprccato the value of care and pains and thought, But if one behaves in the general inherent tendency of men to do the right, tho courageous thing on impulse; and in their ability 10 do good work inspired by enthusiasm, one may well hesitate 10 base an adverse criticism of some- thing hastily done merely upon the lack Of long continued thought that must have accompanied the doing of it.

try England seized the chance, and in the courteous way characteristic of her formal actions of such a ma turo, paid another tribute to the coun- try whose friendship she is so eager to maintain.
 And this action came just at the time Belgium. so closely associated in our minds with France, was hesltat- ing between strong allegiance to her old friend, France. and her anxiety to call this country to the aid of Europe, the stabiization of which means so much to Belgium. the victim of the war. There is distinctly human ap- peal in this action of that country; her position. hesita ting between un- questioning support of France and her almost wistful eagcrncss to have this country come to her aid. is like that of one who sees a great champion across the water but who hCsitatcs 10 call for help fearing 10 offend ono who has defended her in the most dangerous moment of her life. Thus, while England's tribute to Harvey, as our representative was well thought out compliment to this countrys Bel giums stand is that of the impulsive, worried nation, longing for our aid, A true tribute indeed.

IGNORING THE [. <

A dispatch from London says that the signal honor paid to Ambassador George Harvey when he left South ampton Saturday was the greatest tribute to an American since the day when a British warship sailed for the United states with the body Of White law Reid.
 The tribute" consisted of the rais- ing Of the American flag over tho line of British batticships assembled and the laundering farewell Of the Vice Admirars flagship.
 With all due respect to Ambassador Harvey soon to be replaced by the new appointee. former Senator Kel- logr. it is submitted that the honor was paid more to the United States than to the man. No matter how great may be the admiration Of friends of George Harvey, it may not bc disputed that his appointment was not popular one. He has done nothing. aafd nothing. to turn thr fecling Of tho people Of fhis country in favor of him, and he has said some things that were dispiessing to us even though those remarks be taken lightly as he may have intended them. George Harvey hos not the sort of personality which correctly represents American thoueht His successor may be no great improvement upon him except, perhaps. in greater knowl- edge Of the superficial pTopriedss which do not mean great deal Never mind about that

 Will Broadcast Wilson's Speech
 Arrangements have been made to broadcast d 10-minute address by MT. Wilson to hundreds of thousands of listeners all over the world on Satur- day night, November 10, on the eve of Armistice Day. The former presi- dents subject will be "The Significance of Armistice Day"
 The Armistice Day pilgramage to the home of former President Wilson has grown from a spontaneous march of several hundred of his admirers to his residence on November II, 1921. to the dignity Of national recognition and acceptance. On Armistice Day. procession of thousands to honor the Unknown Soldier entombed at Airing ton. He was greeted with tumultuous applause all along his route by the crowds who viewed him as one of the many who fell in the world struggles. When the exercises at Arlington were concluded, several hundred in the crowd marched afoot to the former presidents residence, 2340 s street, Northwest, and cheered him until he appeared. A brief impromptu address was made for the crowd by Hamilton Holt. Mir. Wilson terribly enfeebied by his long illness was unable to re- spond.
 On Armistice Day last year, plans were made for the pilgrimage and Henry Morganthau delivered an ad- dress for those assembled. Mir. Will son made a brief speech in reply in which he lashed the "puny persons who stand in the way" of American participation in the effort to stabilize world conditions.
 The committee in charge of the ar rangements is composed of Huston Thompson, of the federal trade com mission, chairman: Mrs. Robert w. Wooley of Virginia, vico-chairman. and Mrs. Fl. E. c. Bryant, secretary.
