purposes seem to be present. And here
is, incidentally, lesson resulting
from the Italian conquest of Ethio-
pia, for it is asserted that Japan was
encouraged to speed up action in
North China by Italy's annexation of
Ethiopia in defiance of the League
of Nations. Italy, recalling how in
effective League protests against ia
panese conquest of Manchukuo proved,
thought-and rightly, it appears
that it was safe to emulate that eX-
ample by swallowing up Ethiopia.
Now Japan reasons that since Italy
can get away with it,, Japan might,
too. No doubt Japan is right, for the
League as a protector of its members
China among them-has ceased to
be important.
Allenby Dead.
Death the other day closed the
career of Lord Edmund Allenby of
England who during the world war re-
stored Christian sovereignty in Pales-
tine after many centuries of MOham-
medan government. (But even as these
lines are being written, fighting be-
tween Jews and Mohammedan Arabs
is going on in the streets of Jerusa-
lem).
Allenby, who was IS years old,
was considered a brilliant soldier, and
after the world war was appointed
British high commissioner in Egypt.
1t may be said, however, that his
nOblest services consisted in deliver
ing but few weeks ago speech in
which he condemned mankind's re-
sort to war; he said: 1--WE find the
cleverest brains everywhere expert
menting with new inventions for ia
cilitating slaughter, building more
horrible engines of destruction, brew
ing more atrocious poisOns, designing
more monstrous methods of numbering
their fellow men and women. Is it
too much to believe that the human
intellect is equal to the problem of
designing world-state wherein
neighbors can live without molesta-
ton in collective security? Why
should there not be world police,
just as each nation has a national
police force?" Others have often
spoken along the same lines. But it
is rare phenomenon to hear a pro-
fessional soldier speak like this.

The class has much to be proud of,
as it has been outstanding in basket
ball, declamatory, debate, track, etc.
Sandstone will have another shoe
shop. Otto Johnson of Woonsocket,
N. D., recently purchased the shoe
shop located in the Tomhave block,

Finlayson again showed its athletic
proves at the county play day. AL
though no record was kept of the

no doubt but that Hinckley and Fin

in the pole vault, and the relay team
