PEACE For centuries the cry of nations has been Peace! Plans, resolutions, and treaties have been made and adopted, only to be broken. Just at present many policies are being urged for international peace. But as President Coolidge states: There is no short cut to peace any more than there is a short cut to any other sort of salvation. In the present Congress, plans have been urged toward making the dream of eternal peace come true. The one that evokes the greatest interest is the Capper resolution. This peace plan is framed very much along the line of the proposal to outlaw War made to this country last April by the Foreign Min- ister Briand of France. But it is more de- finite in its terms. He calls upon Congress to go on record as rcnouncing war and favor- ing arbitration. It suggests a means for ex- tending a treaty with France to all like- minded nations. As reviewed by some pa- pers it is wondered that if this plan should be adopted. many people will not remain un- convinced that much progress has been made toward permanent peace. -Mary Borel THOSE WHO HAVE GONE BEFORE The most influential country of the world has set aside a day to the memory of those who sacrificed their lives that all men should be free and equal. Should not this be an incentive for us to remove any possibility of another such conflict as that which took place ten years ago? To be sure, we should honor the dead, and remember the trust they left us. But when we do remember these man, let us not think of war, but rather of peace. It is true that they fought.. and fought well, yet they fought that they might secure peace and freedom, the heritage of our race. Their trust must not and shall not be detrayed. All our efforts should be toward securing per- manent peace among mankind. Let us not glory alone in what they did but in what they fought for. Victory for the sake of victory is shallow, but victory which realizes the up- holding of our principles and ideals is a vic- tory worthy of our boys who lost their lives over there. Let us celebrate, therefore, from the depths of our hearts, this day, set aside in honor of those who have gone before. -Willard Meyer A CHEVAL -ROUS STORY It was my first time on a horse And I thrilled beyond words- It all seemed so perfectly simple When I swung my leg to the stirrup. My steed ambled along slowly, 'Iihere was nothing hard about riding, And I wondered at the wary glances Which were cast at me by my friends. The horse knew I couldn't ride him And he began to trot-for mischief! I expected nothing like that, quite, And I became quite alarmed. I grabbed the saddle before me I'm sure it helped a little- But the horse always came up as I came down And we met half way! Today I don't feel as fit as I ought to, My bones somehow feel a little stiff. But-if I ever find-the opportunity- -I shall do it again! -Dorothy Fitch A WINTER NIGHT I wonder if you have Ever gazed at the sky on a winter's night- The cold, clear beams floating down Casting a silver gleam over the snow. I wonder if you have Ever watched the stars twinkle- The shutters of heaven Opening and closing thru the night. I wonder if you have ever walked On a sandy beach at night And watched the light from a cold moon Shimmering over the rippling water. I wonder if you like To see these things On a winter night As I do. -Donald Stevens THE SETTING SUN Softlv my canoe glided down the stream While I gazed at the landscape far and near I beheld a sight lovely as a dream. 'Twas the golden sun setting behind the hills Casting his radiant beams upon the waters clear. Sparking brightly were the rippling rills. Slowly the sun nodded and slipped away Behind the mountains and the hills. Then twilight with her shades bade farewell to day. Helen Truesdell Page Nim
