To the Kdltnr: ' llnw do you account tor tho fact that whereas a year ago you were for a League of Nations, you arc now opposed to it. Can it be that The -Mall Tribune is more influenced by partisan conside rations than it lia professed? If u league was right a year ago, why Isn't it right today? What has changed except that a Bland pat Itepublican machine Is now In control and President Wilson was in control a year ago? Many subscribers would b interested In an explanation. JEKFEHSON THOMAS. BUT THIS I'Al'KU is not opposed to "n" League of Nations and never lnis been. Some lciijrue, or association, or concert of na tions, call it what .von like,---will in our opinion eventually be form ed, but we have lung since abandoned all hope of the Wilson League, pud we doubt very much if any Ica-nic is formed, well in the next four years. , Moreover, toward the entire question, we admit our view has changed, and we believe this change of viewpoint has swept over niaiiv others. The past vear has been a year of disillusion, and it seems to us idle to formulate any opinion, without taking this dis illusion into consideration. A great deal more has happened in this country and abroad, than a mere change in political control at Wash ington, not only nialerial conditions, but the entire world psychology has been transformed- liook at Kurope. With (iemiany recalcitrant, and an army on the Rhine, with King Couslantinc back on his throne, and his troops being drubbed by the "unspeakable Turk," with the Baltic stutes lit lie less than armed camps, with spring offensives advertised from Moscow, and all this time, with the League of Nations holding its regular sessions, as effective iu I he promotion of pe.ice ns a pea shoot er firing at I he moon ! ' How can any rational person not obessed by an ideal which has lost all reality, eonl in-.u- to talk as though the Wilson League of Na tions' was still it vital issue. How can any one believe that any'prae ticnble League to enforce peace has a ghost of a chance in the whirl pool of national antagonisms of today? Only those who are still fight ing a partisan sham battle that is over, can sustain this fallacy, in our (pinion. The League of Nations was a great ideal, it continues as a great ideal. We hold tiie faith that such a world organization for pence must eventually come. Bui we can see no promise for fulfillment in any near future. Xo document can promote world peace in itself, any more than a marriage license as a document can promote domestic happiness. Both art; mere forms until vitalized by the prope'r spirit. And internationally the proper spirit is not "there" or hero. In short, the sad truth has dawned upon most of us, thai the proposal came loo soon. The world was not as enlightened as we thought. Na tions must be differently constituted before- any league, whether Mr. Wilson 'h, Mr. Ilardi fig's, or the (Ircat Yogi's, can he more than an abstraction. Whether the world must again go through a fire of suf lering and destruction to see the light, we don't know, probably no one knows but we do know that until then- is a spiritual regeneration the problems of this world must be solved iu the old, old way, and any League of Nations remains morally an aspiration, but politically merely an academic question. How Much Do You Know? RipptingRlujn Kr fy Walt Mason LLOYD GEORGE. HK MKKTS a crisis every morning, and knocks , groggy, to the floor; the crises conic, with scanty warning, and find him clamoring for more; he views the day with lofty scorning that does not bring him three or four. It seems at times he will be shaken, when adversaries loom up strong; "at last," they cry, "he'll lose his bacon ; we'll show him where he got in wrong;" but when they're by their goats forsaken Lloyd (ieorge puts up a grand sweet song- 1 1 is foes are always advertising that- they will fire him from his chair; that they have him where his tricks sur prising will never get him anywhere; he docs some fancy coni promisiri'g, and lo, he's right side up with care. .Oh, kings lament their overturning, the fame of many statesmen fades, and minis ters for death are yearning, w ho lately headed the. parades; hut Lloyd (ieorge keeps the home fires burning, and laughs at all your hand grenades. At home his foes are out to pot. him, as they would hag n blooming hare; abroad' his enemies would swat him and comb his ringlets with a chair; hut at this writing none has shot: him, and he has beaming smiles to spare. A crisis meets him in the dawning, and tells him that 'his jig is up, and cries, with roaring doggoning, that he must drink the hemlock cup; and in a minute it is fawning around him like a spaniel pup. 1 What people call their country the "Flowery Kingdom?'' 2 In what peculiar fashion did the Chinese bury their dead? 3 How does the chinch bug attack plants? 4 What color is chlorine gas? 5 What is a chronograph? 6 What is the 111 of a seventeen year locust? 7 Do early or late apples make the best cider?
