PEACE ODYSSEY

You may or may not remember
also the subsequent years l spent
roaming the world as a newspaper
man. My secret ambition, though
only mother and father knew 1t,
was to be a diplomat. 1ncurabse
optimist, l still cherished that am
bition to help in small way to
bring peace to the world. But L
didn't have enough money to be
diplomat, and started out to study
foreign affairs as a newspaperman.
| roamed through China, Siberia,
Australia, and Japan. Unfortunate
" the more I saw of diplomats, the
more l wanted to be a newspaper
man.
Still grasping for that elusive
hope that the dying embers of
peace could be gathered together
and blown back into healthy flame,
l went with Frank B. Kellogg to
sign his permanent peace treaty in
Paris. 1 still have the watch that
Kellogg carried on that trip. His
watch broke and loaned him mine.
The watch l gave him was, in a
way. like his treaty 1t was not
very good watch, but it was the
best Kellogg could get under the
circumstances. Likewise his treaty
He was carving out history. He
dared do what European leaders at
first jeered him for Henry L. Slim
son, who followed him, also dared
take unprecedented steps to head
off war in Asia. Both Kellogg and
Stimson were ahead of their time.
They will go down in history as
great men

A Fund for Friendliness

In the address with which he opened the National
War Fund drive President Roosevelt spoke of friend
illness among neighbors an expression OF the
American genius That is good way OF describing
it, The Fund goes for friendly work among our
soldiers sailors and marines at home, in the battle
line and in enemy prisons; for friendly help
for noncombatants of all the United Nations 1t goes
for our home front Every war connected, VOL
untary supported activity gains by this friendly fund
with the single exception of the Red Cross which Is
considered large enough to have "a fund of its own
for its far-flung and beneficient enterprises.
The united fund expresses the American genius
in another way. We all like efficiency, even In our
giving There waste Of time and money III the
old system of competing appeals Who could allocate
his gifts fairly and intelligenty among twenty-sX

dent OF the National Fund reminded his hearers IN
this city that gift must take the place OF former

that those who should give much more to counter

HALLOWEEN AGAIN

Yes that time of the year when the spooks come

evening as their guests at gala Halloween party,
with ice cream and all the rest. But the KIDS VINO

Pastor Wood says that the SER
vice here is part of a world wide
prayer program that will be carried
out in all Adventist churches this

welfare of their missionaries has
prompted the Executive COMMITTEES
Of the General Conference at Wash

devoting of the day appointed fol
special prayer in their behalf.

Today | fear that there are not

HOROSCOPE
"The stars incline
but do not cOnpel'
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 80


Benefic aspects dominate today
when adverse influences are active.
The CONFEDERATION is fortunate for
aged persons.
HEART AND HOME: Women
are under the most favorable dl-
rection of the stars today which
should be suspicious for informal
entertaining of close friends. Under
this sway visits from members OF
the family who are in uniform
should be of special significance.
1t is a happy day for romance and
fortunate date for weddings. Girls
engaged in war industries Will dis
cover domestic interests not recog-
nized and public service will con-
tribute to the future development
|of ideal homemakers, the seers
prophesy. Scientific study and
technical training are to assure
something like perfection in house
hold management, it is forecast.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Certain
planetary signs are read as presag-
ing postwar trend toward social
ism or at least continued regimen
tation of business Politico-social
plans will be widely advocated, 1t
is Indicated Experiments in the
world of trade and commerce may
be tried but seers of far vision fore
tell inevitable return to the free
economy upon which our national
prosperity has been built. The
rule that governs least is the rule
that governs best" is quoted by
those who foretell our business flu
ture.
NATIONAL ISSUES: Leadership
is postwar world affairs has been
predicted for the United States
where its citizens have accepted
the prophecy as the natural result
of our part in the war. That there
will be competition for first place
among the nations prominent in
the conflict is indicated by the stars,
for the horoscope of Josef Stain
seems to presage great power in
dominating Europe. 1t has been
pointed out that with Jupiter sta
tionary in his midheaven the Rus
sian premier will gain prestige at
the end of this year while April,
1914, will be especially fortunate
for him.
INTERNATIONAL FAIRS s:
Canada is subject to signs that pre-
sage great distinction for the do
minion. Certain aspects appear to
indicate a desire for independence
of Britain and development as one
of the Western Hemisphere repub-
! lies. There may be friction on the
war fronts where Canadian troops
will gain fame through brilliant SER
vice. Canadian air forces also will
be conspicuous in splendid feats of
bombing in enemy cities and strong
| holds
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of a year of travel and
success. Civilians will gain through
business successes.
Children born on this day prob
ably will be clever in the use of their
hands and exceedingly versatile in
talents. They may love pleasure,
and should be carefully trained in
self discipline.
