Our Friend Brazil.

Many personalities and many incl
dents contributed their part to the sue
cessful conclusion of the Havana Con-
ference. But one Of them that stands
out in importance has been the friendly
alliance between the United States and
Brazil. which at all times during the
proceedings showed these two great
nations standing shoulder to shoulder
in their support of some Of the i'm
portant principles under discussion. It
would be unfair to the other friendly
republics Of the south to say that
Brazils attitude alone was Of especial
significance. For 1t was not Brazil
alone which supported the policies Of
the United States. The great majority
Of the other states Joined Brazil in this
stand. But one must remember that
Brazil is by far the largest and most
populous country in South America. oc-
cupying. in these respects. relatively in
that continent the same position as the
United States In North America And
through her steadfast adoption of the
principles advocated by this country,
through her friendly cooperation with
the United States. three quarters OF all
the human inhabitants of the western
world were pictured as being In accord
and Of one mind. It has been written
that Portuguese-speaking Brazil and
English-speaking United States outnum-
Der by three to one the Spanish speak
ing countries OF the Americas One Of
the happy incidents of the conference
has been the demonstration OF friend
ship between the United States in the
sorth and Brazil in the south. repre-
senting, together. the overwhelming
majority Of the people OF this hemi-
sphere.
Brazil's delegation to Havana was
headed by DR.. Raul Fernandes, a jurist
Of international fame and eminence.
His support of the principles concerning
Intervention advanced by Mr.. Hughes
was extraordinarily valuable. One hesi-
tates to think OF the unfortunate re-
suits which might have attended the
conference had DR.. Fernandes felt that
his understanding OF international law
placed him In opposition to Mr.. Hughes.
But his considerate. continuous and dis
interested scientific help made it pos
sible for the United States TO demon
strate that its policy OF intervention has
been in accordance with accepted prin-
ciples OF international law. rather than
in opposition TO new and untried con-
ceptions OF what international law
should be. At that dramatic moment
Saturday. when the bugaboo OF inter-
vention was raised for the last time
and thrust forward TO embarrass the
United States. Mr.. Hughes probably
turned the tide the other way and the
successful conclusion OF the conference
a few days later was made possible. But
DR.. Fernandes. with the prestige and re-
spect that his personality commands.
stood with Mr.. Hughes. His address. In
which he asked the conferees not 10
risk division OF their strength by q
vote on the contested Intervention reso-
luton. was probably the factor which
contributed most to Mr. Hughes victory.
As long as Brazil. in the south. and
the United States. In the north. stand
together as friendly allies, there need
be no serious fears for the success OF
Pan-Americanism.

II am the master of my fate,
I am the captain Of my Soul!"

l am tne captain OF my soul!
These famous lines of Henley had
their basic idea stated by Alexander
Pope, when, more than century
before. he wrote the closing couplet to
his satire addressed to Mr., Bethel:
Let lands and houses have what lords
they will.
Let us be fixed. and our own masters
still"
The next satire. the famous one
dedicated to Lord Bolingbroke. brought
out this idea OF individualism, the
essential dignity Of the human ego, In
even better fashion. with more attention
paid to particulars.
Anything that kept him from him
self-this was the thing to be feared
and Stunned.
Long; ;Ss as S,H to him who works for debt
Long as the night to her whose loves
Long as the years dull circle seems
to run.
When the brisk minor pants for
twenty-one;
So slow the improbable moments roll.
That lock up all the functions of my
soul:
That keep me from myself; and still
delay
LIES instant business to a future day:
That task, which, as we follow or
despise.
The eldest is fool. the youngest wise.
Which done, the poorest can no wants
endure;
And which not done, the richest must
be poor"
At the age of 40. Pope declares. he
puts himself at school. and feels some
comfort not to be fool" He means.
Of course. that he applies himself to a
more complete understanding Of him.
self, and Of his own likes and dislikes.
This is task for any person, of
any age, in any land, at any time. To-
day there are so many forces at work,
especially in our own beloved land. tend
ing toward the submerging of the indi-
viduals personality in the great mass
character which has grown up as the
result OF every one reading and doing
the same things. that 1t is extremely
difficult for many to keep their own
individuality reasonably clean.
Small country towns in the 7Os. 8Os
and COS in the United States were filled
with quaint characters. who. If their
personalities often were queer. at least
fulfilled these ideas of being true to
themselves and thus being. to that eX-
tent. masters OF their own fates, per-
sonal captains Of their own souls.
Not to go back. is somewhat to ad-
vance.
And men must walk at least before
they dance"
Pope here takes crack at the per-
nicious doctrine. widely current then
as now. that one must either 60 for
ward or backward.
Common sense tells one that while
there is some truth In this slogan. es-
pecially as applied to modern business,
like most such lump characterizat!on,;,
II takes in too much.
Every one knows some person who
may be said TO be standing still in life
with infinite grace and precision. The
'go-getter" spirit does not bother them
In the least. Not to so back is. indeed
with them, TO advance. Holding one
own Is something.
Our poet believed, or affected to be-
believe. that meditation would enable
the reasonable man to correct his
faults:
Say. docs thy blood rebel, thy bosom
With wretched ayarice. or as wretch
cd love?
Know. there are words, and spells
which can control
Between the fits this fever Of the soul?
Know. there are rhymes, which fresh
