Tert: "And there Were also NTH
Him Other 9;ttle ships, and there
arose a great s!3-rl."-St. Mark,
tp.36.
It was a stormy night on the little
lake of Galilee, and the Master had
ventured forth in an open boat with His
disciples to pass over to the other side. "
Drawn doubtless by curiosity and with
desire to follow the strange wonder
worker, a number of little ships bore
Him company. When the storm was at
its height He was in the hinder part
of the ship asleep on pillow" So
deep was the calm within that there
was no concern for the storm that ragged
without. 1t is a striking evidence of
the tranquility and serenity of the Mas
ter. Aroused by His anxious disciples,
we read that He "arose and rebuked the
wind, and there was great calm" 1t
was not only demonstration OF His
supreme power, but further evidence
of His unfailing concern for the lives
of those about Him. His solicitude for
men, whether in calm or storm, was His
prevailing practice. He was concerned
not only for those in the ship in which
He sailed, but for the 'other little
ships" that were struggling In the
tempest. There is an unWritten law of
by navigators the world over. No mat
ter what the favoying conditions may
be under which a ship may be sailing,
nor how secure its crew and passengers,
once the call of distress is heard from
another ship far removed, struggling
under adverse conditions, immediate
succor must be given and relief rem
dered. The Carpathia, far away, hears
the cry of the stricken Titanic and i'm
mediately changes its course and pro-
cceds to bring aid to those who have
suffered disaster The law of the sea
should be the law of the land.
Deep inwrought in the whole teach
ing of Jesus is this principle of life's
interrelationships and responsibilities.
We are bound to believe that this
principle is more universally observed
and recognized today than in other
ages. More and more we are being
made to realize that no man liveth

merely in the experimental stage, taking
the world as a whole. Even here the
women are still novices at politics
with some notable eXceptions-and very
few, as compared to the number OF men,
hold public Office. So far they have
divided along party lines, as the men OF
America have divided. There has been
no effort of major kind to form the
women into a feminist political party.
Nor does there seem at this time any
likelihood of a strictly woman's party.
Possibly issues may arise in the future
which will align the women politically
against the men. If such issues arise
and the women are found on one side
and the men on the other in country
where the two sexes are quite evenly
divided, the situation would be fraught
with danger to the cause of woman
suffrage.
The politicians in America have come,
however, to take the so-called woman
vote seriously. This was particularly true
during the recent national campaign,
When prohibition and religion were cas-
into the political caldron. But those
questions divided the men of the coun-
try probably just as strongly as they
did the women, and it is doubtful that
any change in the election would have
resulted from the elimination last year
of the woman vote. The grant of
the ballot to women, however, while
it may not have changed political
lines, has been the cause of more and
more justice to women in laws and local
ordinances. The demand for equal
rights for women in law and in custom
has grown apace with the political
power of the women. Therein lies its
greatest good to women and probably
to the world.

fashion, but this should be minor
and rather insignificant part of the
whole educational process through
which he passes. There must be some
thing else.
There are various ways of escape
from the clutch of the machine, but
most Of them are available only to bold
and original spirits, such as Anderson
himself.
The problem of education may be to
create out of each individual a dual
personality that can turn at will from
the standardized processes necessary
for existence to artistic and intellectual
processes.
In one sense the machine is enslav-
ing the brain. But also it is freeing
the brain through leisure. and leisure
is the open road Of escape if education
will only enable the individual to
follow it.

A Distinct Menace.

Within the past few days meeting
has come to close in Vienna that is
of interest to all the nations of the
world. 1t was the meeting of the In
ternational Socialist Youth.
The city that a few years ago was
the capital of an almost absolute
monarchy was host to fifty thousand
boys and girls, who, if they had been
born under the beneficent rule of the
United States, probably would have
been called Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts
rather than young Socialists. Parades
were held before, during and long after
the close of the convention itself. So
cialists, ranging from the deepest dyed
Communist Red to the paler Middle
European politician. addressed these
children.
The calling of thousands of young
minds to consider the benefits of any
political system is not inherently wrong
or dangerous, but in this meeting IN
Vienna there lies distinct menace.
The method and obvious aims of the
elders who guided these children con-
stituted THE whole danger. The oppor-
tunity was there, as it is always, to
turn the impressionable minds to the
question of attempting by political and
social reforms to overcome the admit
ted faults in our present mode OF eX-
istence. Much as we who are more
orthodox" may oppose the reforms
they would advocate, we can readily
admit, without compromising our views,
that the consideration of the question
of economic betterment cannot but adj
vance us in some degree toward our
goal OF a millennium.
The guiding spirits at Vienna, how
ever, would have nothing Of temporiZa-
lion. The spirit that underlay the
French Revolution and gave the world
democracy was unknown at Vienna.
There was no cry of Liberty, equality,
fraternity" There was no demand for
international peace, although the ideal
of Socialism is international unity.
There was no demand to live and let
as was heard in Germany after the
fall of the house of Hohenzollern.
The keynote of Vienna was militant:
Down with the bourgeoisie!'
A street filled with fifty thousand
children such as We would pick from
any junior high school in Washington
took up a cry for blood, a demand for
class oppression.
Some day, in the minds of the ma
iority of this fifty thousand, the seed
of hatred for the bourgeoisie will bear
fruit. few of them will be leaders, the
rest will be excellent man power. Any
politically ambitious person will win
their support with watchword.
America has its youth movements.
But they are led toward the goal of
peace and the brotherhood of man.
When we understand this difference
We will understand the unrest of some
of our cousin nations.

Identifying Arlington County.

To use term that connoteS very
definite state of mind, Arlington County
has become NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and
there are indications that it may even
become filling station-conscious.
1t is not surprising that the county
became NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. The paw
ing and widening of the beautiful wind
ing Lee Highway from Rosslyn to Cher
rydale some time ago resulted in a
deluge of Signboards. They sprang up
like mushrooms overnight; large, i'm
pressive and very pronounced sign
boards that began screaming at the
passing motorist as soon as he left the
broad avenues of Rosslyn and set forth
for the surrounding Virginia suburbs.
They hid the landscape and jostled with
each other for attention. 1t became
apparent that the paradise of the sign
board had been found and that it was
located on that stretch of the Lee
Highway from Rosslyn to Cherrydale
This deluge of signboards, together
with the fact that work is now pro-
crossing on improving the Lee Highway
from Cherrydale to point beyond Falls
Church, thus preparing another sign
board haven, led the Board of County
Supervisors to issue an order banning
further signboards anywhere for the
present, at least. And this drastic &C
ton has just been followed by action
of the County zoning Commission
which revoked permit already granted
for the erection Of palatial filling sta
ton on the Lee Highway near Lyon
Village. The residents of Lyon Village,
sick of signbcards, rose en- masse and
denounced the proposed filing station
as menace to life and limb, as it was
to be placed at an intersection, and
bilities of the modern motorist.
Coed for Arlington County! 1t should
not only make permanent its ban
against signboards, but should give
equal consideration to the pressing
problem of the filing station. the hot
dog stand and the roadside shacks
that hang out the unappetizing invita-
tion-"Ests!"
Arlington County is soon to boast
of some of the finest stretches of high
way in the country. In addition 20
the improved Lee Highway through
Falls Church, there are to be the two
roads to the Arlington Memorial Bridge
the Lee Boulevard and the so-called
straight to-the- bridge route through
Clarendon. These roads will represent
the latest developments in highway
construction and each will lead to
beautiful and impressive entrance to the
Nations Capital. Arlington County will
render a great service to mankind py
keeping them free from signboards, lin
iting the construction of filling stations
of weird and startling design and min
imizing as much as possible the de-
nand for hot dogs and barbecues.

Sherwood Anderson.

Is the machine swallowing the brain
that made it?
Such was the fear expressed by Sher-
wood Anderson, celebrated novelist and
Virginia country editor, before the Insti-
tute of Public Affairs at Charlottes-
vile.
Other have voiced this same con-
Germ ov the ultimate consequences OF
this ma, nificent civilization which year
by year is handing over to the iron
nand and the iron brain more of mans
manual and intellectual labors. Few,
however, have stated the problem in a
more forceful manner.
He cited, in particular, the printing
press. 1t is a wonderful and costly ma
chine, representing too great an invest
ment to stand idle In order to justify
its cost it must forever be printing
something, whether or not there is any
thing worth printing. The result, natu-
rally, is continuous flood of banal and
vulgar literature, innocent of thought,
devoid of ideas-as standardized as
collar buttons or gas heaters.
There is much of truth in Mr.. An
derson's contention. If the process con-
tinues indefinitely it might be rea-
soned that human communities will
become intellectually indistinguish-
able from ant communities-witht the
conduct of the individual so standard
lied that every one acts in practicable
fashion precisely the same as every
body else and with lack OF conformity
regarded as criminal.
The possible remedy may rest in a
more general, more fundamental and
less standardized education--a revolt
from the mass methods now gaining
ground where the individual is taught
not how to think, but what to think.
It is doubtless necessary to teach a
prospective collar-button maker how tc
make collar buttons in standardized
