IT'S SIMPLE Struthers Burt Believes Peace Should Make Sense THE PILOT reprints from THE CHARLOTTE NEWS the following editorial. "Struthers Burt, speaking to his fellows from the depths of a big heart, urges that the Uni ted States stick to hard, straight and simple thinking in the mak ing of the peace. It was very sensible advice he offered, but it has little chance of success. The task as he outlined it is too simple, and people have ceased? to believe in simplicity. Nowa days, and for a great many years past, there has been the ten-1 dency to surround human pro blems with a hodge-podge of mystical influences, half-seen or totally unseen. There must be a mumbo-jumbo from the medi-; cine men before the tackling any problem. "Thus Mr. Burt's challenge is likely to fall, unanswered by \ the many, thoijgh it may be I savored by the. few. He is dead right in his belief that, when this war is ended, humanity will be facing one of its greatest cri ses. But it docs not follow that a great crisis demands high-pow ered action by super-diplomats. The Burt theory is that mankind is of sufficient age to think out this big problem for himself, in simple terms. He believes that 1 the senselessness of going to war in every generation should be apparent, and that the answer to that problem is as simple as the answer to the tiny little commu nity problems which vex men | everywhere, every day. "He is the first man who has expressed himself at length on, the peace problem, so far as we j know, who has not attempted j to sketch in some kind of back ground, some machinery of en forcement. If the nation will lis ten to his simple statements, the machinery will take care of it self. Mr. Burt is certain in his own mind that the old-style American methods of govern ment can be fitted to the entire world and that differences be tween nations should amount to no more than differences be tween little individuals back home. "The service Mr. Burt's think ing can render the nation and the world is that he translate the awe-inspiring complexities of world peace into such simple terms that it makes sense to the little people, everywhere. He gives peace a chance to work, which is what it needs above all else." NIAGARA Mrs. A. O. Danee returned Thurs day from a 10-day visit with re latives in Texas.

Rabbits cannot fly or climb trees. But H. W. Doub of Aberdeen says that rabbits are especially fond of mistletoe, will eat the leaves, stems and all, and even feast on the limb that the mistletoe was attached to.
