tion. Then the bear spoke up. He
proposed that both horns and teeth
be banned. 1t would be orafe
enough II animals were allowed to
give each other good hug when
they quarreled. The other animals
disagreed. No one trusted the other
and the thought of disarmament
was abandoned"
The parable needs no interpre-
tation. The history of disarma-
ment conferences is commentary
enough. Always there Ia much
talk and. that is all. Talk is seldom
backed by adequate action which
leaves US little hope that results
OF any tangible value will be
achieved by talks currently being
held at Geneva. This introduces
my third clipping. 1t says:
During World War I the State
of New York was the center of
great talkfest in which the Middle
West was suspected and even ac-
cused of disloyalty. because OF its
peoples racial backgrounds. Much
was written about the shameless
pro-Germanism of Iowa, Wiscon-
sin and neighb0ring states. But af-
ter three years of such charges 1t
was found that New York had pro-
duced only 21 per cent of her en-
listment quota while the states
maligned had furnished so to 66
per cent. The takers stood far
down the list of states meeting
their obligation"
Now, when men speak of a poss-
ible third World War, what should
be said? Possibly this: IF war is
ever to be abolished, the disarma-
ment must begin within. Individ-
uals and nations must disarm their
hearts-disarm them of greed and
hatred and racial pride. This is a
staggering assignment; no human
agency is equal 20 it. One solu-
ton remains-a humble and peni-
tent return to the teachings of the
Bible and it's Christ. Here the
church should lead the way. My
last clipping accents this thought.
1t reads:
During one of the bloodiest bat
ties of World War | a group OF
soldiers. came crawling into ref
uge shelter. Half of their squad
was dead; many were wounded.
In an effort to meet the situation
as adequately as he knew how a
priest who was present said, New
er mind, boys, you are making B
new world No, padre, was a
thoughtful lads answer, we are
not doing that That's your job.
We are smashing up the old world.
You must build it new"
Even today this remains human
ity's challenge to the church. She
must build it new and build it bet
ter. 1t may even be true that,
like Esther of the Old Testament,
she is "come to the kingdom for
such a time as this"

THE TRAGIC FUTILITY OF WAR
There never was a good war or bad
peace. ."-Benjamin Franklin.

"There never was a good war or a bad
eace."-Benjamin Franklin.
I would draw your initial atten-
ton to an old newspaper clipping
that dates back to World War IL.
1t tells of Hitler's visit to the tomb
of Napoleon when he was at the
ascendancy of his power and in
comparing the two commentator
recalls the words written by Rob-
ert Ingersoll shortly after Napol-
cons body was brought to the
Paris mausoleum for interment.
These are his scathing words: 81
thought of the orphans and the
widows he had made. / thought
of the tears that had been shed for
his glory and / said, I would ra-
ther have been a French peasant
and worn wooden shoes. -. /
would rather have lived in a hut
with a vine growing over the door
and the grapes growing purple in
the kisses of the autumn sun. |
would rather have been that poor
peasant with my loving wife by
my side knitting as the day died
out of the sky, with my children
at my knees and their arms about
me. l would rather have been that
man and gone down to the tongue
less silence of the dreamless dust
than to have been that immortal
impersonation of force and muir
der known as Napoleon the Great" /"
When in this spirit we think of
the widows and the orphans that
Hitler made and the tears that have
been shed for his glory, we recall
how many in those war years cried
with the Old Testament writer,
"How long, o Lord, how long?"
Perhaps we can find the answer
in Victor Hugo's words concerning
Napoleon that he was successful
only until God was bored by him. !"
And when now we find mems hearts
filled with fear lest they suffer the
catastrophe of a third World War,
the question comes easily to our
minds, "Why don't nations disarm
and avert all future carnage?'
Winston Chuchill, our nations re-
cent distinguished guest, offers this
intriguing answer. It is my second
clipping-a parable. Churchhill
writes:
"Once upon a time the animals
decided to disarm and arranged a
conference to decide the matter.
The rhinocerous said that the use
of teeth was barbarous and should
be abolished. Horns, which are de-
fensive weapons, should, of course,
be allowed. The buffalo and the
stag agreed. The lion and the tig-
er took different view. They de-
Tended teeth and even claws, which
they described as honored weapons
of great antiquity. The whole tribe
of cats agreed with this conten-

Flower Show At
II Of ID. May 9th

If you are planning on entering
this years Delaware Flower SHOW
at the University of Delaware, DR..
Charles Dunham, associate pro-
fessor of horticulture, has some
suggestions to help you get your
plants and exhibits ready.
Starting with roses, DR.. Dunham
said gardeners are preparing for
the show already. One of the i'm
portant things that should be done
now is disbudding. The side buds
should be removed leaving only the
terminal bud which usually pro-
duces the largest and best flowers.
Removing the lateral buds while
they are still small will allow all
the strength of the shoot to be di-
verted to the terminal flower. 1t
also allows time for the scars OF
the disbudded laterals to heal, pro-
ducing a more perfect specimen.
If you would like to pick up
some pointers, there will be a mee-
ting of the newly formed Delaware
Rose Society at Agricultural Hall
in Newark, May 27, beginning at
8 p. m, devoted to preparing roses
for show. The meeting is open to
anyone interested.
Another perennial which may
need attention, with what appears
to be an early season this year,
are Delphiniurns, DIR. Dunham said.
If you plan on entering Dolphin
iums in the show you should stake
them up now while they are still
small This will prevent them from
bending in the wind and rain as
they get larger. This will produce
straight spikes for the show. There
are two classes for Delphiniums,
number 36, for one spike of any
color and class 81, for three spikes
of one or more colors.
In the African violet classes, DIR.
Dunham says you can hurry your
blossoms along if they seem too
slow by placing them under
table lamp for a few hours each
evening.
If you plan on entering collec-
ton of .broadleaf evergreens, they
should be sprayed to protect them
against leaf spot and leaf miners,
he said.
One of the most popular divis-
ions of the show year after year Is
the junior section. Exhibits in the
junior section must be staged and
arranged by the children themsel-
yes. DR.. Dunham says there is lots
of time now for parents to help
the vOunpaferS select classes tO en-
ter and to practice on them.
For example, class 79 is dish
garden planted by the exhibitor.
Glass 80 is terrarium planted by
the youngster. There are several
classes with dried leaf and flower
collections which can be collected
now.
Practice arranging now, in the
containers to be used in the show,
will help make winning arrange
ment when the big day comes.
When gathering wild flowers, DR..
Dunham warns that entries will be
if they contain: ground
pine, arbutus, bunchberry, laurel,
native dogwood or jack-in-the-pul-
pit.
According to Delaware conser-
walton law, it is illegal to use any
shrub, tree or flower without the
owners written consent.

tural Hall, University of Delaware,

The State

MANKIND must have laws,
N1 and conform TO them, or
their life would be as bad as that
of the most savage beast. And the
reason of this is that no mans
nature is able to know what 10 best
for human society; or knowing.
always able and willing to do
what is best. There is difficulty
in apprehending that the true art
of politics is concerned, not with
private but with public good (for
public good binds together states,
but private only distracts them);
and that both the public and pri-
vate good as well of individuals
as of states is greater when the
state and not the individual il
first considered. - Plato, spvitten
about four centuries BIC.
