THE League of Nation has justified its existence. If it had
dono nothing before, and should do nothing aain, tho cessa
tion of hostilities hutwecn Greece and Bulgaria ' will stand as u
lasting monument to' its usefulness.
Skeptics may point to the fact that this was a small war,
coming at a time of general exhaustion in Kurope; and that if
the will for peace had not been stronger than the will for war,
tho League's ultima! ium would have amounted to no more than
u righteous but ineffective gesture.
Perhaps. But the fact remains, that in the past, in spite of
war weariness, similar outbreaks in the Balkans, while confined
to the' principal combatants, have been allowed to bum out, with
grievous suffering and destruction on both sides.
The League of Nations did not transform a will for war into
a will for peace, hut it gave the will for peace, a medium of effec
tive expression, something that has been lacking in this com
bative old world for these manv weary centuries.
AVitb Bulgaria ' disarmed, Greece wanted to fight. Greece
would havo fought, and grabbed more than Macedonia, no doubt,
if the League had not stepped in and told her to go back home
and sit down. '

Thus another war would have been staged, with all its de
struction and collateral consequences.'
The supreme test of the Lcaguq of Nations as an effective
forco to prevent war, has not! conic. When Russia starts to
growl at Poland, it perhaps will colnc. That bridge, however,
need not be crossed until the world conies to it.
Today it is sufficient to congratulate ourselves that such an
organization as the League of Nations exists, and that without the
assistance of the United States it lias demonstrated it is a practical
and effective force for European peace.

The ultra violet light has no color. Is

the glass electrode of a high fre

Ultra violet rays are present in the
sunlight, in tho light of an nrc lamp,
in the light from a mercury vapor
lamp of tho Cooper-Hewitt type. Tho
ultra violet rays are shut out by
glass, but will pass through quartz.
Quartz crystals, lenses, or fuzed quartz
panes, are therefore used. In place of
