This plan would provide for con-

making intensive study of matters
pertaining to the maintenance of

mittees are properly made up and
wisely directed these ought to be
productive Of profound Influence
throughout the world.
1t has with reason been urged that
youth has been given a wrong i'm

voted by the writer's of history to the
wars OF the world. attributing to
these not only more OF glory but
more Of influence than they deserve.
Here Is way provided to correct
such methods and give prominence
to the instrumentalities of peace
which make for peace or for war.
Such arrangement should promote
intercourse between the youth of all

lead to war. 1t should promote CO.

HELP THE SEAL SALE

AS a people we expect results
from our endeavors and in like de-
gree should support that which en-
sures the results we desire. If this
be so, we unhesitatingly and
generously should support the
Christmas sale of seais and health
bonds, for very excellent results have
been obtained from this effort in the
past few years.
or course not all the Roadway
that has been made during the past
20 years in combating the white
plague is due to the sale of Christ
mas seals but it is significant that
during that period there has been a
reduction in the number of persons,
out of each hundred thousand, who
die of tuberculosis. from 200 to 81.
That is wonderful progress and we
all know that the money obtained
from the sale of the seals has help
ed greatly to make this possible.
