'Yfn. tdr; when do 1 got mo sum mer vacation?" WHAT IS WAR? WHAT kind of business is this war thing, anyway, whon judged by the laws and morals that govern individuals? Just suppose That you're walking down the street and a fellow bumps into you and then says: "Can't you see where you're going? Get outla my way next time, you bonehead, or I'll hand you one." This makes you peeved, because it wasn't your fault at all. You feel that if you proudly ignored this threat and the lowbrow who uttered it i hat you would look like a poor, spineless coward. Maybe you ought to "consider the source," etc. But you notice that other passersby who heard it have paused just Jong enough to note the result, and you recognize one or two of them as your neighbors. You "don't want any trouble." But what the dickens aro you going to do? Swallow it and go on or what? Tliis all goes through your mind like a flash. You feel rather nervous, but you also feel that in order to maintain your standing in the community as a regular fellow, who doesn't want trouble, but who won't let anyone pick on him (where it can bo heard by others at any rate) that it's tip to you to say something. So you turn and remark: "Get outto the way yourself, you big mutt; who do you think you're talkin' to?" This looks better. The passersby stop. The other fel low js now up against it, just like you were; he's got to do something now to maintain his own standing. Things be gin to happen. First thing you know you're in a fight. You didn't expect a fight. You hadn't had one in years. But here it is. "Without warning. What's the answer? Bo you maintain your standing by showing that you're not afraid lo fight if som0onc picks on you? Not at all; not ah all. A policeman arrives. 1 Ie rings for the pat rol. You and your, ppponcnt arc pinched almost before the fight got started to the intense joy of the crowd that likes a little excitement whether it's a light or a pinch. And from starting with the most justifiable motives in tlio world those of merely maintaining your right to be lot alone and not picked on you suddenly arc confronted by the fact that to bo arrested as the result of a fight is a disgrace. And you get nowhere except into trouble, for it's "against the law" to fight. Our whole theory of civil ization is bused on that otherwise, they say, we would have anarchy. So there you arc. But When ono nation plays the bully and affronts another, and each refuses to back down because of pride or national honor, and the affair ends in a fight, it's glorious. It's pat riotism. It's war. It is not "against the law." About the only real difference is that instead of ono man fighting another man, several millions fight several other millions. Then it isn't disgraceful. .It is heroic. And they pin iron crosses and medals on you for doing things they'd lynch you for if you were settling a private griev ance. But if war is correct the custom of legally prohibiting two men from fighting it out is wrong. .Moth can't he cor rect. So, we merely ask as we did at the start, what kind of business js this war tiling, anyway, that makes what, we usually call an offense against the law, or even a crime, suddenly into a virtue? There is something, somewhere, 11 ... i i i -n 1...1 ii. ..i l..:.. in t lie unexplored returns oi p.sycnumgy nun m.v u.punu it, but, personally, we haven't met the explanation. ii - DODGING THE ISSUE "PUT BIBLE INTO MODERN ENGLI SH."

Olive ltoliltnh Lwln Na T1IK city council has dodged the problem of enlarging the ciiy hall by referring it to the people at the next general election, ft involved an expenditure of $S000 to fulfill a necessity. Tho council passed the buck on the question of ap pointing a police matron by referring it also to the people. In brief, the couiicilmen find the referendum a mighty handy thing to avoid a decisive stand on petty problems. Putting the city hall problem up to the people, will start a score of real estate schemers at work. We shall hear talk lo the effect that the city hall is in the wrong place, that wo should have a "civic center," that an elaborate and costly structure should be built. We shall have offers of a score of sites and talk of a bondissue for an "adequate structure," and may end by locating it in some place- as much out of the way as the new federal building to ap preciate adjacent property. The enlarged city hall is not planned as a permanency, or as a community adornment or to boom realty, but to ful fill a neccKtdtv and convenience the people for the immedi ate future. It will bridge the gap until the city is able to finance a more suitable structure some time in the pros perous future.
