TF we have another war, you
and l will be responsible for
its making. All the crimes,
all the hardships, all the afro
cities, all the inhuman savagery
of war, the killing of millions of
people will be charged to our ac-
count by a Jus. and impartial
fate.
This was the message which
was brought to the Denver Opti-
mists' club last Thursday by an
Apostle of Peace-one of the he
roes of the late war who has
been decorated for his valor by
three different nations.
He revealed in a most lucid
fashion how all the nations of the
world thru the glorification of
their war heroes, have syste-
matically educated their people
for war, how these histories are
written and falsified for the glor-
ification of each particular ma
tion, not one of which, according
to its own histories, ever lost a
war.
This young truth-teller who
has seen with his own eyes and
suffered with his own senses
from the unspeakable horrors of
wholesale slaughter and patriotic
murder, has the greatest mission
of any man in the world today.
1t is that of telling a whole ma
tion the truth about itself, its
past and its future.
He can speak without mincing
words. You can't accuse him of
being a pacifist. You can't call
him a Stacker or a coward. You
can't dismiss his verbal broad
sides by saying he is pro-German
or pro-anything except pro-
peace.
He has fought for his country.
He has risked his life in a gigan-
tic struggle to end war. He has
been decorated because, as he
puts it, 81 snuffed out several
valuable lives" He has been thru
the mill. But
He is one of the few who
learned his lesson. Harold r.
Peat who is proud be called pri-
vate Peat doesn't want to go to
war again. He doesn't want any
body else to have to go thru what
he and millions of others suffered
during the last great conflict.
And you can't blame him
Neither can you impugn his mo-
tives when he strips war of it's
veneer of glory and adventure
and paints it in the revolving,
miserable colors it really is.
His talk before the Optimists
was like hammer beats upon the
conscience of the world.
He said that we fought this
war and didn't know what we
were fighting for until President
Wilson, in 1917, revealed that
we were fighting for democracy.
Many of the participants up to
that time did not know and had
never heard of the difference be-
tween democracy and autocracy.
The United States went into the
fray to uphold an ideal.
Dramatically, he held up his
Victoria cross which he received
with two other decorations, for
killing seven of the enemy. And
if he had killed fifteen, he prob
ably would have received six
medals instead of only three. At
least, that is his view of it.
He told how his imagination
had been stirred as boy by the
sight of monuments of war he
roes in the town of his birth, how
his admiration had been aroused
by the exploits of these men and
how their accomplishments had
kindled within him a desire to
emulate their achievements.

Your car is, in fact, being pulled up

Likewise you have new speed on

You enjoy a smoother running

And you obtain more miles per

PIGS SHOUT is PUT
TO WORK UPON FARMS
Lack OF Farm Labor Brings New
Mechanical Devices

CHICAGO. June 23.-The snout of
the pag has been put to work by the
farm labor shortage. and the saying.
that everything OF the pig Is used
but his squeal no longer holds en-
tirely good, says the National Insti-
tute of Progressive Farming.
The pig now drinks at automatic
waterers and manipulates self feeders
with his snout. which he formerly
Used to root up pastures and emit
loud squeals. He need no longer root
the ground or squeal when hungry,
the incentive having been removed. A
certain amount of time and labor
also was eliminated by the more SIM
plfied way of feeding and watering.
The consumer, tho institute says,
benefits materially with better pork
products through the more general
use of sanitary concrete wallows or
baths and automatic hog -oilers
which tend to decrease hog diseases
formerly contracted in the traditional
mud wallows. In fact the hogs read
lily take to the Concrete baths" in
preference to the old mud puddles.
Another item which makes for
healthier and more profitable pig,
says the institute. Is the more gem
eral advantage taken of the process
whereby the hogs are turned into the
corn fields and allowed to harvest
while feding themselves. Thousands
of acres OF grain are harvested in
this way instead OF carrying feed to
penned up pigs. This also serves to
reduce the farm labor problem.
Where this process Is used, beans
are planted with the corn to permit
the pig to harvest a balanced ration
to give finer sandwich to the con-
sumner.

ceding the ceremonial, which, 1t is
understood, will be a hummer"
Speaking further, the "pote"
states that a ceremonial without a
large flock of candidates would lack
the usual Shrine pep and enthusiasm,
so he Is urging the nobility to get
busy and make his heart happy by
giving him a large class of novices
The success of any ceremonial. he
says, depends on the number of can
didates, the larger the class, the
more fun.
Therefore. says the pote, to the
nobility, get busy" There Is lots
of good material in the jurisdiction
of Zamora; good, true. bright. fine
men who would make tip-top
Shriners. Go after them, urges his
nibs, hook your arm through theirs
and lead them UP to an application

other fellow, do it yourself and do
it now.
In the days that are past it was
customary for the mobiles to attend
ceremonials in the regulation
Shriners' uniform dress suit or tux
edo and fez. OF recent years there
has been a falling away from this
custom. The potentate requests that
the custom of the olden days be re-
vived and that all the mobiles Will
attend the ceremonial dressed as
Shriners But come anyhow.
Among the other activities OF "a
mora temple are the preparations for
the coming picnic and outing for
the wives and children and female
relatives Of Shriners. 1t will be held

.FREEMAS0NRY
GIVES HUGE SUM
FOR SCHOOL WORK
Stands So|idIy Behind Move
ment For More Efficient
Institutions

Rreemasonry has always been the
earnest advocate of popular educa-
ton and the staunch defender of the
American publicsschool.
In recent years this interest has
been intensified and the various
branches of the great order have
made large appropriations fer educa-
ton.
The grand encampment of knights
Templar of the United States of
America. at it's meeting in New Or
leans last year, founded an educa-
tional movement which Is far-reach-
ing in it's scope.
The sum of 100000 was set aside
as the beginning of an endowment
the income therefrom only to be
used for the purposes of the founda-
ton.
A sum of 81 per capita per annum,
was levied upon the 100000 knights
Templar in the United States for this
purpose. One-half thereof is to be
added to the permanent endowment.
The other half. together with the in
come of the endowment. Is to be dis
tributed by the grand communicates.
in proportic n to their payments into
the fund. to aid boys and girls to
lecticns are now being mare from
the members and the money will be
available July /, 1924.
Tho grand master in making the
recommendation said:
II feel that the grand encamp-
ment can build no greater monument
nor inaugurate q mGre worthwhile
movement than to put into effect
plan that will provide educational
advantages for the youth OF our be-
loved country. thereby enabling them
to become more useful members of
society and better citizens CT the re-
public"
Both young men and young women
In undergraduate work will share in
the fund.
The grand Communicates of the
various states have taken up the mat
ter with enthusiasm and are coop
Grating with the grand encampment
to raise very large endowment.
The supreme council of the Scot
fish Rite. northern jurisdiction, has
established scholarship fund and
thereby number of young people
may secure an education who other.
wise might be denied this advantage.
The Scottish Rite of the southern
Jurisdiction is taking a most active
interest in educational matters, and
Is supporting the movement to create
federal department Ct education
with a secretary in the Presidents
cabinet. 1t also Endorses national
university at Washington supported
by the government, English as the
language Of instruction in the gram
mar grades and other educational
movements designed to promote the
highest efficiency and widest effec-
tivepess of the American public
school.
