The World and All
BEYOND ~NATI0NALIsM

Ths greatest dramatizstion of the character of
Abraham Lincoln was done by an Englishman, John
Drinkwater. Lincoln was one Of the greatest Ameri-
cans, but his greatness is such that it transcends me-
tiorslity. He belongs to mankind. The nobility of
his life is summarized in his executive act in enamel
pating the black slaves of America, and that was an
act that was more than national. II affected the hui
man race. and was beyond boundaries of time and
space in its significance.
Lincoln's dramatic life, tracing a golden thread o.
courage from the station Of the ~unlettered child u
poverty TO the pedestal of the chief citizen of the
world, is a challenge to humanity Of all ages, rather
than a mere national epic. II is inspiration to the boy
Of the Congo, even as it is to the youngster Of Maine
or California. Lincoln belongs to humankind, and his
deathless sentences, spoken before the American au-
diences, have echoed around and around the earth, in
every language ard dialect under heaven.
Il is so with the supremely great Of all nations.
Their great service to their fellow men makes them the
possession Of all peoples. Beethoven, whose wonderful
music has inspired the men and women Of all nations,
is ours almost as much as he is Germany's. Leonardo
da yinci painted his pictures and wrought his statuary
in the Italian peninsula, and Edison invented the cleo
trio light in the United States, but no boundary lines
are the common property and the common pride Or all
peoples.
There is no national jealousy concerning genius.
Pasteur and Fabre and the Curies have been hailed
as kindred by all scientists Of every nation. though
they worked in France. Their discoveries are as po-
tent for good in Haiti rs in Paris. Here is the true
nternationalism-the internstionslism Of genuine hu.
man greatness.

Real Royalty

Tia Lever Rio Grande Valley had the opportunity
Friday 70 entertain what has been termed "ths real
royalty Of the Southe-the kings Of the cotton and
corn fields, the champions or ten Southern states in
production Of these staples.
The royal group were guests OF the Chilean Nj
trate Co, which provides an annual excursion for the
champions Of the Southern states. Most Of the youth
full members Of the party were i-H club boys who
made outstanding records in corn or cotton projects
enc Of the outstanding members Of the group being
Jesse Johnson, it-year-old farm boy Of North Carolina.
who produced a record crop Of $50 bushels Of corn Per
acre.
Jesse Johnson Is a frecklcd country boy. who has 2
tsndsncy 20 acquire knowledge and a proclivity for do
ing thinga better than anyone else. Last year he de-
eieed Il produce the record corn crop in his native
state-and succeeded. His success was not due 20 the

who as state champions must be regarded as leaders
in their profession. The Valley takes considerable
aatisfaction in the fact that it found favor in their
eyes. and that soms Of them may determine to return

OUR ARMY
(DaIlas Times-H erald).

Members Of the Women's Patriotic Conference on
National Defense must have been greatly comforted
the other day By hearing from Colonel c. B. Robbins.
assistant secretary OF war, that our present mobiliza-
tion plans call for the assembling Of an army Of a.
075,320 officers and men.
The framework Of this mobilization machinery is
the standing army, the marine corps, the reserve Of
ficers, national guard and the various reserve Officers
training corps. Six field armies can be Termed with
this enormous force.
While this seems TO be an unusually large number
Of men approximately ready to answer the call TO the
cciors, Germany, before the World war, had a much
moro powerful force in ratio to population. Very
likely it will be necessary to have especially large
armies in the next war. Means Of destruction viii be
so efficscious losses will have to be reckoned in bat
talions rather than by individuals. To those who
realize that the possibility Of war still exists it Is
comforting to know that the nation is prepared TO
hurl TO the front on short notice and sacrifice il nee
essary, 100000 Of its most able-bodied young men.
And nations who are threatening US might as we'll be
warned by the fact that millions Of high school boys
are being trained to keep the ranks Of this peace time
army filled.
