In a league of nations now in ses sion at Geneve Switzerland, in their eleventh assembly was heard; the views of two statesmen, both of world renown, both enthusiastic for a world's peace. As how to bring it to pass they are wide apart. Mr. Brand of France contending the organization of the European nations into a league is one of the first steps to be taken for a substantial world peace. While Mr. Henderson of Great Britain de manded that disarmament was neces sary to bring the ends desired. The world's peace is a subject of international standing. Upon it rests the salvation of our future civiliza tion. 666 Relieve A Headache or Neuralgia in 39 minute, checks a Cold the first day, and checks Malaria in three days. 666 also in Tablets.

The views of the two genelemen just mentioned are wide apart Should either of their standards be aJ.;."d or both be adopted, where would the results come in ? As to my. way of thinking they remind me of an ac quaintance of mine who was called on to make a Sunday school talk. He had just imbibed rather freely in the juice of John Barley Corn, neverthe less his patriotism responded to the call. After - a few blunders in the Holy land, with one mighty bound he landed on the pyramids of Egypt. After telling of their immensity he straightened himself up, raised his right hand and said: "My friends, it is a historical fact that when these pyramids were built they began at the top and built downward." Nevertheless, to my backward nar row contracted way of thinking out things, these gentlemen are statesmen of international fame. It does' seem that they have begun at the top of this great structure of a world's peace and are building downward. It does seem rather embarrassing for one of so small a caliber as myself to make such assersions as these. Bear with me. The strength of any literal build ind is never stronger than the weak est place in its foundation. This na tion of ours has built a fabric that has stood the test for 150 years under a national head that has stood the test and still stands. We have 48 states in this unipn tied together in national bonds, with a president, a congress, senate and supreme court, Does not the 48 states live in har mony?

For examaple, a 1 :2 :4 mixture will not produce 6 cubic yards of concrete, if 2 yards of sand and 4 yards fo gravel are used, because the sand will lodge in the spaces between the pebbles. If you want 6 cubic yards of concrete, use 2.7 cubic yards of sand and 5.34 cubic yards of gravel. ; : o states ? Are they not all t adjusted at the natural head ? All ' our dif ferences have been ironed out for 150 years. Our ties of unionship is stronger than ever before. In this old world of ours, if my information is right, we have near 60 nations with seperate and inde pendent government. With each one striving for supremacy. : Is it any wonder we always have conflicts and wars? If 48 states can be held to gether under a national head, then why not organize the 60 independent governments under an international compact, with a president, senate and a supreme court. Let every nation stand in the new organization, as a state in the nation al compact. Each nation will have it? court. At this stage we are ready to introduce the question of disarm ament to be dealt with through in ternational legislation. With safety we. can junk our admirals and bri gadiers, our armies and navies, im plements and munitionfactors.I.atf'r -.ca, .. .. 1 . 6 Oh man orpeace, slJpancrthin Whatpf . jrae economic. .conditions . of the woridi-What -a -savuigi of .fi nances' under a new order of a world, peace. Is this all, Nay, the most of human energy, life, blood, tear?, broken homes, devastated country, hunger and cold by taxes all followed by pestilence. Mr. Henderson's idea of disarm ament is all right at the proper time. To disarm at this period would pos sibly be ery dangerous. If war should be declared the sur rounding nations would be forced to reconstruct their armies, navies and munition factories in order to be safe from encroachments from those countries in war. But first let us tie the nations of earth together with in ternational bonds. With a president a congress, senate ana a supreme national rights after the order of the state rights. Each nation represented according to its population. Instead of 60 independent governments we have but one. With such an organiza tion in force we have a foundation as solid as the rock of Gibraltar on which to build a world's peace. Mr. Brand pleads for the utility and necessity of grouping the Euro pean nations together. What would be the fruits of such a movement ? Strife, hatred, malice, etc., the very seed for a bloody conflict. . Before closing, let us review a few statistics. Our beloved nation from her source of revenue collects over four billion dollars each year. Are you aware that near eighty, per cent of this vast sum goes for war pur poses in this time of peace. The ex pense of our government outside of war purposes is run on twenty per cent. It is clear that our nation will save over three billion dollars annual ly. Think of the immensity of this vast sum. If same was placed on the highways of the nation, how long would it take to hard surface every highway in the nation? And done with money now being spent to, de stroy human life, make widows and orphans, reck countries, overthrow governments, followed by famine and pestilence. Oh thinking man, the remedy is within our grasp. Which side " will you take ? With such a peace in augurated, then we can with safety junk our arms, navies, munition fac tories, brigadiers ' and admirals, and even our military colleges. Is not this time referred to in Holy writ? "When the. lamb and the lion shall lie down together, wc will, beat our swords into plow sehars, our spears into pruning, hooks, and shall . know wars no more." . The question of a world's peace is1 the greatest movement ever set on foot since the advent of' our Savior, the Christ. j J P. JARRETT. i GNEISS Mr. Roy Stiwinter's many friends and relatives will be glad to hear that he is getting along very well at the Angel Brothers' hospital. Many have flocked to see him. All are wishing for him a speedy recovery. Owing to unfavorable weather con ditions the Highlands basketball team did not come to play ball Friday afternoon, Sept. 19. : iO ' CALORIES AND REDUCING It is almost impossible to reduce by resolving to eat less, in a vague, general way. The only sure and scien tific method is to count your calories and know how much you are eating. This is not as difficult as it seems. Maintenance diet for a man at hard work is 2600 calories daily, for a wo man at hard work, 2400; for a woman at light work 2200. If you are a short person about 1700. To reduce, you must eat less than that regular maintenance diet; about 1200 calories or less a day. Knowing the caloric value of a few common foods, you can estimate that of similar foods. The following list will help: Slice of bread or toast, 100; Crack er, 25; Muffin, griddle cake, 150; waffle, cornbread 200. Piece of pie, cake, pudding, ice cream, 300 to 500, depending on size and richness. Teaspoon sugar, 100 chocolate cream 100. .. Almond, double, 10; half walnut, 15. Cup unsweetened gelatin, 50. Pat of butter, 100. Tablespoon cream, 40; cup skimmed Meat, small helping lean, 100; fat, One egg,' 75. . Fruits apple, peach, fig, slice pine apple, dish berries, 50; one banana, large orange, pear, 100. ' Vegetables large helping raw, 15; half cup cooked watery vegetables, 25 ; starchy vegetables, 50. Lima beans, baked beans, dried peas, half cup, 400. Cereals half cup cooked to mush, 150. Prepared all-bran, half cup, 25. In estimating fried or sweetened foods, the fat and sugar added must be counted. In reducing, eat a variety, but COUNT YOUR CALORIES and keep as near 1000 or 1200 a day as possible. It will make you more comfortable if you eat generously of vegetables and fruits and filling foods of low caloric value. ' o YOUR GROCER Do . you know your grocer and do you co-operate with him in trying to save his time and your money? Wc are familiar with the housewife, who comes into the store, not knowing what he wants, and wastes valuable time of the clerk's and keeps other customers waiting while she tries to make up her mind. A shopping list prepared at home would have avoided this. One cannot always know what attractive' things will be in the market, but these can be promptly picked up as extras. . The woman,-without a shopping list is likely to phone to the grocer, after she gets home, and order something she forgot, requiring an extra de livery. We all have to pay the over head in the upkeep of the grocery, and many such, customers, demand ex tra clerk hire and delivery service. If possible do your marketing out side of the -regular daily rush hours, which are from eleven to one and five, to six o'clock. You will get bet ter attention and save the grocer much and annoyance. It helps if you know the location of the various goods in the store and make your order ac cordingly, not expecting the clerk to chase from one end of the store to the other to show you a cheese or a box of prunes. , Some customers will pinch every peach and feel . of the food carelessly, increasing its tendency to spoil'. If you do this, you should purchase it yourself and not leave it for the gro cer to sell to another. Consider the size of packages. The larger size is cheaper, in . proportion to its contents and is economy if . you can use it to advantage. o , .
