ment in contrasts, though it will
scarcely invite the world unity ex-
pected by it's propagandists.
In an institution of the sort pro-
posed, the students would become
avatars of peace, returning finally to
their respective countries we'll
grounded in constructive ideation
and soberly responsible for placing
before their several races the high
principles of humanitarianism and
righteousness as understood in
America.
The basic thought is that such stu
dents should mingle together and en-
deavor to understand each other be-
cause the procurement of peace on
earth must first be built upon an in
telligent acquaintance Neighbors
sometimes quarrel, but they are less
apt to do so when they really I'M
derstand each other. Groups of peo-
pie of varying intelligence, ideals,
customs and so on, working together,
have learned that peace and amity
pay better than bricks and bullets
at least that is the theory.
Hence il is logical to believe that
students from Spain, France, Bel
GUM, Russia, Italy, Asia, and all the
world, who might come to such an
inter-racial school as proposed, and
being one-pointed in their desire for
the betterment of their Netherlands
and races, could aid in the formation
of a potential nucleus for ultimate,
all-extensive, all-pervasive peace.
Noble in it's purpose, the thought
full Klansman can only regret that
human nature will probably make
the proposition seem wild and Chin
erical even to those who might profit
most by the arrangement. An all
American university would do far
more effectual service to the world
in its training of the supreme race
the race that would neglect none of
it's duties toward its weaker breth-
rem.
l should like to see the Bible placed
Where the Bible used to be,
Upon the top of teachers desk
For every child to see;
And I'd like to hear the teacher say,
AS my teacher used to do
Before we play or work, dear ones,
L want to read to you.
l should like to see the teacher stand
Before the class again,
And lift with rev'rent care the Book
That makes Gods purpose plain;
And ere the youngsters went to work,
I'd like to hear her voice
Repeat those lines of truth and faith
That makes ones soul rejoice.
I'd like to see her face light up
At each resplendent WORD,
And watch the children's souls shine
out
At the message they had heard;
I'd like to see the sweet content
Fill that dear room each nook,
And know that joy had come to each
When teacher read the Book.
Yes, I'd like to see the Bible placed
Where the Bible used to be,
And I'd like to hear it read aloud
In the schoolrooms of the free,
want my children taught to know
Gods matchless gift Of love-
The Book of Books is Wisdom's gate
To the bright schoolhouse above.
The 3 per cent feature of the i'm
migration law does not affect people
living in Mexico, Cuba, Newfound-
land, Canada Central American
countries and adjacent islands. The
law says that aliens are exempted
who have lived in the countries
named for one year Immediately pre-
ceding the time of their admission
to this country. Hence, any alien
who has been denied admission to
the United States because his coun-
try's immigration quota is exhausted
can go to Mexico or Canada and by
living there one year be admitted
here irrespective of the 3 per cent
clause. If he elects Canada and has
any luck whatever as a bootleg artist
he can cut this year short merely by
feat of normal agility and little
booze-whetted nerve.
Concerning Honesty.
The gentle colyumists of the coun-
try are chirping about honesty. We
offer few pertinent chirps with
chorus of our own.
Here's to the honest farmer
The man who gets the rocks,
Who never puts false bottom
In a berry box.
Florida Times Union.
Here's to the honest grocer,
The man supremely grand,
Who does not in the sugar
Put lot of sand.
Allentown Democrat
Here's to the honest butcher,
The grandest of the grand
Who when he weighs the liver,
Does not weigh his hand.
-Waycross Journal.
Here's to the honest banker,
We see him every day,
He takes and gives your money,
But never runs away.
Columbus Enquirer-Sun.
Here's to the honest mayor
Without a streak of yellow;
He scorns the tricks of politics
There isn't such fellow!
