FFF.. -I-hal We May Think Peace boughf wifh fawning cowardice? Wifh reddened knees, in suppliance fo some mon- sfrous vice? Shall fhere be peace while evils rule fhe land? Shall vain emofion fake fhe place of roofed sense, when sfafesmen make fheir plea for our defense? Give fo us clear-eyed Peace, whose fhinking power is noi' befogged wifh smoke of any hue, nor wifh fool-making draughfs served up for profifs new. Peace fhaf we may have fime fo live ouf Nafure's span, wifh earnesf efforf fo unfoldan upward looking man. Lef's build a menfal armamenf fo sfrengfh herefo unknown: quicken our ears fo brofherhood, fo harmony's grandesf fone! If Wisdom says fhere is no way save as we line our s'hores wifh deafh machines fo blow all fhreafs forever from our doors, fhen fake fhe knife and cuf away fhe profil' from fhe bill: sooner we'll find fhe minimum of wasfe fhaf we musf fill.

A. LYLE KAYE Vice Principal what are lhe Fine Fruits of Education? AbiliTy and opporTuniTy To earn a living doing well whaT we believe needs' To be done: a reasonable degree oT comTorTg some unhampered leisure To be exalTed by a TasTe Tor liTeraTure and music and arT, Tor Travel and sporTs and high hearTed advenTures in any oT a Thousand beck- oning Tields oT inTeresT and acTiviTy. WhaT is iT ThaT has blighTed The TruiT and seT our TeeTh on edge These lasT Tew years? De- pression, poverTy, disease and war have values and may bear some TruiT oTher Than The biTTer TruiT oT diTliculT living. They do noT make Tor The sorT oT progress which is our chieT concern and hope Tor The TuTure. ln The pasT, The longesT sTrides Toward a higher civilizaTion have been made in Times oT peace. SecuriTy, regulariTy oT work, a liberal amounT oT Time Tree Tor The culTivaTion oT The Tine arTs OT living have Tlowered inTo Those achievemenTs we graTeTully acknowledge as our priceless heriTage. WhaT can we do To insure peace Tor The TuTure? James l-larvey Robinson, The hisTorian, made The sTaTemenT years ago, ThaT we have available, knowledge and ingenuiTy and maTerial res'ources To make a Tar Tairer world Than ThaT in which we Tind ourselves. The increased supply oT all Three and The exisTence oT organizaTions dedicaTed To applying Them Tor our social salvaTion are a chal- lenge and The answer To our quesTion. NOT by sTriTe and suspicion, narrow naTionalism and preparaTion Tor conTlicT are we To suc- ceed. On The olher hand, a growTh of undersTanding and sympaThy, a willingness To join hands and cooperaTe wiTh every agency, naTional or inTernaTional, wisely inTenT on realizing The ideals oT a broader broTherhood cannoT Tail To speed us Toward our goal. LeT us inTorm ourselves, ThereTore, and Then us'e, inTelligenTly, The means and agencies included under The Terms ignorance, disease, crime, war. A. Lyle Kaye Page ll
