There can be no valid . argument urged against it., .Even the "bitter-enders" opposed i tq any sort of adherence to the League of Nations or partici pation in its affairs can have no valid objections, for the world i c-jurt,: though initiated through the League of Nations, is a pa rate entity, requiring the adoption of its protocol by each 5 country irr becoming a member,; whether itfis already a mem : her of the League of Nations ornot. Therii seems little doubt cf the United States joining the world court; and the number cf people in this country who believe the Utited States should join the .League of Nations, too,; with or without reservations, is apparently growing; and thei writer believes a majority of f; "all the people of the i United States already adhere to . this belief; ' , , . : - . 4. t - - FUTURE DATES J Mar S.

FLAUBERT'S INDISCRETION "Men or women who -may possi bly become famous fn literature require to strike as Jilgh a note in their private affairs as in their public workr ' Today the fierce light that once beat upon a throne now beats upon the popular fav orite. Faluberfs literary reputa tion 1 likely id suffer because of a pornographic critiqua.. he Once wrote in a rash moment, but. nev er published x and probably' never intended should be published. To day a publishing house is seeking to commercialize thi posthumous epistle which is to be sold at auc tion. The literary I societies vof Paris are bidding for tha manu script that in the Interest of men of letters they may destroy it. The good taste of the civilized world has already concluded that" in 'Madame Bauvary; Flaubert went as far as the laws of decency allow.' - j THE Bid CHURCH Chicago is said to have the big gest church in tbe country. It has over '10,000 members and is of the Baptist' faith, j The odd thing about if is that it is a ne gro church." One might expect to find the greatest colored congre gation in Alabama or Georgia, but here ' it is in a northern city all dressed ' up and running fine.
