As there seems changing human nature and thereby eliminating the fighting in slinct, we can rpc no possibility by creating some organization strong enough to enforce peace. The League of Nations was a instead of being too much a -super-government, with too much power, it was not enough a super government, and was given too little power. Take the recent Italy-Greece skirmish for example. Why was Italy allowed to bombard Corfu, kill several score defenseless citi zens, demand a tremendous indemnity from Greece, and get away with' it f Tho Leaguo of Nations was in session. Brother Cecil of England made a courageous protest against such action. But Signor Mussolini merely laughed, assuming ' that he ever indulges in anything so human and agreeable as laughing. lie laughed because he knew Lord Robert Cecil was merely a kindly and enlightened old gentleman, making a virtuous gesture. He didn't even officially represent Great Britain. He had no armies behind him, no navies, not even a bodyguard-r-he had nothing but words. ' " So Mussolini went ahead, and only hesitated at war because, at the moment, the coal market was not on a war basis. .So, with human nature as it is, with nationalism what it is, there seerntr no way of preventing war, or even effectively reducing its probability, except by. creating an international force for peace, stro iger than any possible national force for war. But according to recent election returns, the United States would never consider such a proposal. Nor, we fear, would any other world power. - So wc come to the real underlying cause of war, which is the simple, undeniable fact that no nation in the world today, has reached the plane of enlightened self interest where it is willing to pay the price of peace. v. ' ..." Individuals the world over have agreed to pay that price, within national borders, by submitting to a rule of law, and paying the expenses of an adequate police force.

The sebum (oil) and sweat are poured Into the well of the hair shaft; they work up along the hair 'shaft out upon , the surface of the skin.

Nobody has ever been able to 'prove that anything air. water, food or medicine Is absorbed through the unbroken skin.

Some Americans little given to arch eology mny be startled by a recent find in tho Holy Land this discovery of the tomb of Sapphira. This lady and her better known husband, Aana- nias, according to biblical record, were stricken dead for falsifying on their Income tax returns. . "Though Ananias' black reputation has-been held up to greater scorn than that of his better half, Sapphira may succeed to the position of patron saint of the world s noted liars by virtue of the startling revelations of the in vestigators.

"In the courso of digging n foundation near the Boza leel. quarter, the hill west of Jerusa lem, workmen found a burial cham ber. .Inside was a plain ossuary with the name 'Sapphira' engraved in He brew and Greek,, and containing the full complement of bones. "Site nnd period pointed to the mid dle of the first ehtury, and the sim plicity o fthe tomb was In keeping with the middle class social position of Ananias and .Sapphira nnd their circle. A young archeologist, who took charge of the Investigation ven tured still further In support of Iden tification, and called In medical ad vice on the nature of the bones. The medical expert Is reported to have found the bones were not those of a woman they wore masculine. Where Sapphira lies burled and who occu pied her mislabelled tomb probably never will be known.

Jf a subject is taboo, then, .lt It be taboo totally, all to gether and forever and ever, amen. But to flirt with a topic and to hint at society's sore spots and then hurry on afraid, nnd "talk about something nice and pleasant and harmless" gives me a severe attack of spiritual Jaundice. I am not a cynic. I believe more heartily In the abounding gra clousncss of human love than I did a few years ago when I first under took to write a little preachment about The Greatest Thing In the World. I don't believe that girls are as bad as they are painted In spite of the statistics about the 4,007.8999 bot tles of hair dye and the 6,678,334 cas kets of rouge and the 7,6060,8888 lip slicks that are sold In the corner drug stores of our enterprising land every year. I believd that marriago is an enormous success In spite of some of the poor devils who make a mess of It. I believe In' woman's virtue and man's honour.
