We have heard nothing since of this astounding charge, but are reminded of it by a state- Wment recently made by Gilbert E.

This is not at all surprising, nor does it mean that there is any lack ,,"_' of abhorrence orf war or the war ~ ‘l? Ipirlt among New Brunswick unl- i; varsity students. The _ greatest 5.1 _ human agency for peace is the ’ uoguo o! Nations, but there have

been occasions when the League has been handicapped by reason of inability to enforce its decrees girhere have been occasions too, since . 1 Ethe War, when the armed power oi nations like Great Britain has been a potent factor in preventing out- break o1 war among other less powerful nations. Would the canoe of Peace, under present world con- ditions, be advanced by the scrap- ping of every British battleship and the demobilization of every, British regiment? The pacifist argues on the assumption that it would. He might as reasonably argue thatthe q dlabanding of all the police forces in the United States would solve that country's crime problem. It is interesting to note that Dr. ' Albert liiiustein, who has spoken eloquently on behalf of pacifism, now recognlus that non-resistance on the part of any one nation t: a {Lilo gesture in the ‘ """“ésuso of peace. His revised thoughts on paclfisrn are set forth in a mes- sage which he sent recently to the Progressive Education Association, from which we quote: ‘The United States, icmlse d its geographic location, is in the fortunate , of heme able w teach slmo pacifism in the schools, for there exists no serious danger and hence ‘m, . . . in; in youth a military spirit. ‘me-re is, however, a. denier that the Iohlem of educatifll 101‘ WIN ml? be handled from an moticnal “the; than a redistic standpoint ‘ . rtshmudbewlnwdwtibei our be niued merely by: demanding disarmament so long as

The New Bruns- wick university students may have had thisirlea‘ innilnd when they showed such lukof interest in the other kind of _pa_cifism about which they were circulariaed, the basic principle of which may be defined as non-reslstenoo under any pro- vocation whatsoever. Which in short means "anything for the sake of peace." ‘more is no warrant in history, sacred or profane, for as- lsuming that peace on such terms lwould be desirable or even possible of endurance, except by a nation oi’ slaves.

Lento! all should the League of tlons be condemned because some 0d itsplans have failed to work, outsatisfactorily. Even the greatest supporter of the Geneva idea has ‘never claimed perfection for it. It was an outgrowth of the Great War, the concrete expression of a universal desire for the taking of such steps as would make a repetition of that awful tragedy un- likely. One cannot say whether the League will accomplish its pur- pose. but it. is worth noting that the organisation has some definite achievements to its credit and there is no reason for believing that it, will not accomplish others. In any event, it is the world's chief hope for peace and, if for no other reason than that, merits our con- tinued supporih-Border Cities Star.

There h not nny matter, nor- any spirit, nor any creature but it is capable of a unity of some kind with other creatures; and in that unity is its perfection and theirs, and a pleasure also for the behold- lng of all other creatures that can behold. so the unity of spirits is partly in sympathy and partly in their giving and taking, and al- ways in their love; and these are their delight and their strength; for their strength is in their co-work- ing and army fellowship, and their delight is in giving and receiving of alternate and perpetual good; their inseparable dependency on each other‘s being, and their es- sential and perfect depending on their Creator's.—Ruskin.

The beauty of a good life is the highest kind of beauty. The Greeks joined two words meaning “beauti- ful" and "good" to form a third meaning "righteousness." But, as Ernest Dlmnet says, Satan has worked to separate beauty from goodness, so that many today are shy of goodness that is attractive. The urge that has brought into be- ing beautiful churches is sound. Organs and choirs come into their own in the ‘same sanctuary and help to create the “beauty oi’ holi- ness." Do not find fault with. 90d- ness that is attractive, for it is this very quality which gives people the desire to make more of themselves.

I have lpoken before of two bro- thers who were under such stern by their father that not- withstanding the fact that they were in their early thirties theywers ac "uervmls" and upset all the time that both developed ulcer o1 the first part of the small intestine-peptic or duodenal ulcer. '

DrzHJLHieekeizinAnnalsof Internal Medicine, records his study of 9Q cases of duodenal ulcer. There was a history of other members af- fecte with ulcer. or with cancer, or with th. in l3 per cent or 121 cases of the 94d. _ .

Many research workierl consider that there is a. certain build of body that is more likely to develop ulcer; the thin or narrow nervoustype of individual.

The individual thus inherits his tendency to ulcer along with his narrow or thin build. ’

It would appear. that the extra flow of acid stomach juice is not the‘ cause of teh ulcer. but that the ‘nervousness’ causes the change in the lining of the stomach or small intestine and the extra flow of acid digestive juice follows later.

Now while all ulcer cases do not give a family history of ulcer, it may be that it has skipped a generation or two, but the nervous or family tendency to ulcer is present lust the same.

Dr. Rieclrer states that the study of these ulcer cases emphasizes this fact that the constitution of the patient (his build) is the most 1m"- portant thing in the cause of the disease; and that once a. member of a. family has shown peptic ulcer, others should be watched for a de- velopment of the same condition,

The thought then is that because ulcer is “in the family” every case of indigestion should not necessarily be considered as ulcer‘ but nevertheless ulcer should be considered early as a possible cause of the indigestion.

You may remember that the usual or outstanding symptom of ulcer la pain or distress coming on two or three hours after eating: the pain or distress disa peering when an alkali -ba.king so , or food-is taken.

The suggestion thafthe taking of a second plebi- scite "after Hitler is gone," in the event of the Saar electing to rc- main under the League of Nations now. is a clever move of the anti- Noui sour-lies.» The nssuruption that Nazi-ism is doomed within a measurable time is not likely to please the predominant party in Germany, however.
