wider, bigger, more spacious It is
told that this advice left in his studio
by master, regarding his own cramped
endeavors, was what really made Ra-
phael.
In such testing days as ours each
one Of us individually, and certainly
our America destined for world lead
ership, are being summoned to daring
proportions commensurate with our
strength and power. To be king size we
need convictions and conservation that
make us sign our name to our dreams,
even as Cecil Rhodes did when. at 81
years of age without dollar. he be-
queathed untold millions for what are
now known as the Rhodes Scholarships.
Our present size is indicated by to-
morrow's dreams we dare to sign.
In his magnificent short story, "The
Man Who Would Be King" Rudyard
Kipling makes that man say: 81 greatly
fear that if want kingly crown
must go hunt for 1t myself" In Mac
beth, Shakespeare tells us what are
the crown jewels in coronet which
is really king size. Here they are:
1.-THE king-becomino grGceS,
ness,
Bounty, perseverance,. mercy. lotUlinesS,
Devotion, patience, courage, tortitude"
When we get into those magnitudes
and attitudes, such virtues in their per-
fection are the frame but for one face,
the flawless, faultless, crystal Christ.
When that One was nailed to a cross
which was to be transflgured into a
throne Of glory, the representatives of
an earthly potentate wrote over that
instrument of torture the title: This is
Jesus, the King" 1t was written in
Latin and Hebrew and Greek. Each
language represented a whole pano-
rama of history.
No words were ever more accurate.
AS the seer Of Patmos gazed upon Him,
riding on to the. conquest of the earth,
he cried: King of kings, and Lord
Of lords!" Shall we say reverently
what the ages have provided: He alone
is indeed king size. To follow in His
train is to measure up to the moral
stature glimpsed in the "Idylls Of the
King:
who reUerenced his conscience as his
king;
Whose glory tUaS redressing human
1Drong;
Who Spake no slander, no, nor listened
to it;
Not St0aying to this faction or to that:
Not making his high place the laDless
perch
OF tDinged ambitions, nor Uantdoe
ground
For 111o0curo hat 4bronob Ill 4b;e 4~ooI.

Wearing the White foUer of blameleSs

That, says Tennyson, is to be king
size.

Must 1t Be in Vain?

The latest combined casualty figure for the
Korean war is 1884, ,269-nearly three million
men killed, wounded or missing. Measured in
terms of human life and human suffering, this
is an appalling price to have been exacted by a
minor war waged in faraway place. It is also
a price which should not turn out to have been
paid in vain.
In the sense that an act of aggression has
been halted, the casualties of course, cannot
be looked upon as wasted sacrifice. For If
the aggression in Korea had not been sue
cessfully resisted, 1t might we'll have been
followed by other and more costly aggressions.
And these, in their turn, might have resulted in
total casualties exceeding even the high toll
taken in Korea. So in this sense the blood shed
on both sides of the line was not shed in vain.
In another sense, however, in the sense
that so much suffering should at least lead to
decent peace in that quarter of the world the
outlook is discouraging. The repatriation eff
fort is accomplishing little more than to lay
foundation of bitterness and ill will for the
scheduled political conference The hope that
this conference, if and when it is held will
produce any kind of tolerabe peace settlement
is slim one. Instead the prospect is that
Korea, after three years of conflict, can look
forward, at best, to a prolonged and uneasy
armed truce; at worst, to renewed fighting. 1t
is in this sense that the nearly three million
casualties may turn out to have been in vain
an army of dead, wounded and missing which
testifes to nothing better than the inability of
man to regulate his affairs decently and
nationally.
A committee of hatters selects list of the
10 best wearers of headgear, and DR.. Kinsey is

some interference on the turns
when PleezWynne bumped Codac
