These Danes, admitting that ev-
erything is reasonable, orderly, and
creditable, believe life less interest
ing than in big country. because
international problems are less
pressing; because in fact, they
scarcely exist. There is enough in
that point to furnish worry for some
years to small-unit sympathizer

ADVANTAGE OF TONGUE.
In one respect, Switzerland has
an advantage, intellectually, over
Denmark, Holland, Sweden. or Nor
way. Each one of these countries
is isolated by language. II a
Shelley were born in Holland to-
morrow he would have to sing in a
tongue in which the great affairs
of the world are not being car
ried on.
Every Swiss, on the other hand,
is born to one of three great cul-
tural languages. He speaks the
tongue Of Goethe, of Rabelais. or
of Dante. He has an advantage.
therefore, comparable to that of
those who know the speech Of
Shakespeare, of Pushkin, or Ger
vantes.

was abandoned because IL cost too

DENMARKS EDUCATION.
1t is due to her education, no
doubt, as well as to her size, that
Denmark has stood out as the leader
in practical peace progress. When
two provinces were taken away from
her by Germany in 1864 her an
swer was to turn Jutland from a
desert into source of wealth.
When the World War ended, and
the victors wished to give back all
she had lost, she refused part of
it on the ground that there were too
many Germans in it for that part
properly to come to her.
Then she startled and almost hor-
rificd the world by proceeding to
disarm without reference to what
any Of her neightbors were doing.
THE OPIUM FIGHT.
A Dane is chairman of the opium

The story, as already familiar,
tells of a dispute in a group OF
friends about the characteristics of
the elephant. Finally they break
up, agreeing to study the question
and meet in two years. The English

things and finally writes a volume

which war could be freely INDUCED
in at a fair price. During the
last 1926 years over 3171 of them
have been years of war, and
Switzerland was mixed up in about
as many as anybody.
PEACE BY CONFUSION.
Greek civilization ended because
the Greek cities could not give mp
the joy of fighting one another. The
Swiss knew when they had enough.
In joining the League of Nations
they have had it clearly recognized
that in case of war they are to be
called upon only for economic pres
sure, not to furnish soldiers and not
to have their territory crossed by
armies. This last point is now
what is bothering Germany in ar
ranging her entry into the league.
EXPORTING" POWER.
Wealth has always played large
part in the history Of nations. Their
great intellectual periods, on the
whole, have been periods of rapidly
increasing wealth. Switzerland is
naturally II poor country. Modern
invention is coming to her assist
ance, however. AS you look up
the sides of huge mountains, where
you saw dashing waterfall, leap
ing from the heights, you now see
an enclosing case. and know that
inside the case the water is tanned
ard made to work like any OK.

FARMERS ORGANIZE.

employment"
FARMERS ORGANIZE.
The Danish farmers in 1887 were
aghast at the outbreak of swine
fever, which caused the export of
live swine to fall from 100000 to
10000. The farmers were so or
ganized that they could consult
easily together, and they decided to
start factories to cure bacon, which
gave them the great export trade
in manufactured bacon which they
have today.
Denmark is probably the one coun-
try in the world in which a bunch of
farmers have given the most COM
plete demonstration of ability to run
themselves and give the trend to the
nation. Apart from their success in
agriculture and in political thinking
they have secured for themselves u
system of education which is stud
led by people from every land. The
Swiss are second to none in their
interest in education, and after all
it is education more than any other
advantage that make men equal.
After the school histories that i
had picked up in France and Italy
it was a pleasure to read one here.
Although intended for the high
school it was written with a just
ness that makes it satisfactory to
