The Garnet and White “Peace rules the day, where reason rules the mind. Collins WHO are the heroes of today and yesterday? Some people would say the greatest heroes are those who gave their lives for their country. 1 hen there are those who gave their lives for science. Who are the greater? Some people would say those who fought for their countries’ freedom and safety. These men were heroes, no doubt, but were they the greatest? No, men who fought and fight in wars are not heroes as I think of a hero. They fought against humanity, killed humans. In wars of the past men killed fellow-brethren against whom they had no grudge. Men who might have learned to respect each other. Men who might have been real heroes. The greatest heroes are those who save human lives men in the field of science. Today we have another type of hero. In this day of conferences, commissions, boards, and parleys, we have those who arbitrate—those who settle strikes between capital and labor. These men may be considered heroes in one sense of the word. They are saving human lives and human standards. Perhaps more important men are those who try to make peace between countries. These men are heroes. They prevent wars; thus many lives are saved. They promote better feelings between nations. They speak for a mass of people. I believe that there are few people of this younger generation who would want to experience the horrors of war that our forefathers have. Some people would say a person who would not fight for his country is a traitor. I lowever, I believe the man who goes to war is a traitor to humanity. Is humanity not more important than a nation’s freedom ? A nation has but a small percentage of the humanity of the world. This younger generation must settle disputes by peaceful means. Soldiers wear uniforms. Uniforms and colors appeal to the eye. hy not let those who settle disputes be decorated. 1 hey would receive more glory and honor when the people of the world realize that peace is supreme. So to the class which leaves this school in June, why not make Peace our aim in life, and “Love thy neighbor” our motto in life. In peace there's nothing so becomes a man As modest stillness and humility. Henri V. “Peace hath her victories, no less renowned than war.' .Hilton. Betty Garrett, '34.
