booklet issued by the wo mens international league for peace and freedom referred to in my peace wod of last week more than a hun dred and sixty books are mentioned these are by authors ancient and modem great and small living and dead i suppose members and friends of the league are inferentially invit ed to read mark learn and inwardly digest the same i might add that amongst them are twenty or more about music and its alleged influence upon life and peace and war and other things let me confess that i don t give a hoot from hamilton whether these books are good or evil great or small helpful or unprofitable what i want to suggest is that if the world at large would only realize how all this con troverslal writing stuff defeats its own purpose and becomes a more or less polite racket peace on earth would be nearer than it ever has been what are the facts in the british museum alone there are over two million books waiting to be read and being read dally any man who knows the first thing about writing knows that something in every volume of those two million could be found having direct or in direct reference to peace and free dom and internationalism and all that sort of thing readers of dickens will remember how the literary editor of the eatans will gazette wrote that soul search ing thesis on chinese metaphysics he read up what was written in the encyclopaedia brltannica under tne headings china and meta physics and combined the two there you are i solomon might well have remarked that of the making of books there is no end there tat think of these two million books in the british museum for a moment a thoughtful reader i mean might read and assimilate ten thousand words a day that would be a good days work whether wisdom or non sense was the sum of the reading let him read steadily for six days a week and for fifty two weeks in the year let him begin reading at 21 years of age and read until he is seventy one fifty years of straight honestto goodness reading giving every devil bis due and every saint his reverence this is a terrible task only very few could do it thoughtfully and well and what is a book worth that isn t worth thoughtful reading suppose the books in the british museum to be of average length say ofan ordinary novel by sir walter scott and books on philosophy are often twice as long as these ap- proxlinatary hundred and sixty thousand words in each ten thousand words a day mean strtr thousand a week in fifty years of reading the man will have read for two thousand ate hundred weeks and done precious little else believe me a reading chap like that wouldn t have spare time enough even to get married to say nothing of playing golf or bridge or similar high brow exercises two thousand six hundred weeks at sixty thousand words a week would mean reading and sorting and as iml latlng a hundred and fifty six million words in fifty years but in those two million british museum olumes there are three hundred and twenty thousand million words so the poor fellow would be still thret hundred and nineteen thousand eight hundred and forty four million words on the wrong side of his job in the words he hadn t read there might and certainly would be thoe that made nonsense of what he had in other words he passes on to his place with less than a two thousandth part of his life work done organized propaganda is a new game in the writing business it is one of the most profitable and pleas ant jobs in the world in polite metaphor it is a racket who knows but that i in these feeble words may not be collecting a hundred dollars a colljum from some far off poison gas manufacturer who is planning the next war you never can tell i hope i m not a cynic but jiis organized ballyhoo in the name of all sorts of things from peace to pea nuts gets a little monotonous a few minutes reflection would soon put it where it belongs the world will get exactly the peace it deserves peace makers will mostly get the reward or all aod people in this cockeyed day peacr ts merely war in hospital war makers and war wishers are the sur geons and internes and nurses in the institution think it out ye lovers of peace

of those days when tt seems good to be alive groundhog find coals of fire 200 years old taken from globe and day june 2lst the charred remains of a are that was kindled in the sixteenth century were uncovered today as dr albert e cooper indlanologist conducted preliminary examinations of two in dian burial sites a few miles south of georgetown known as a source of arrowheads and other relics for oyer half a cen tury the two mounds situated oi an esquesing township farm first attracted the attention of scientists last fall the credit for yesterdays find goes not to dr cooper but to an industrl ous groundhog which had found the soft sandy soil of the larger and more important mound an ideal spot for a home while carefully examin ing the ground for archaeological evidence dr cooper chanced to his fingers through some of the sand which the animal had piled at the entrance to its burrow the sand fell through his fingers to leave a few little balls of sand covered material in his palm the mysterious substance proved to be charcoal further search revealed that the industrious animal had push ed great quantities of the little balls of charcoal to the entrance of his home later in the day a similar discovery was made at the second mound about 100 yards west of the first site prom his examination of the two mounds dr cooper painted a color ful picture of two great indian gatherings which look place here some time late in the sixteenth centur al a twelve year interval the two sites are obviously th scenes of ossuarlal burials as practlc ed by certain clans of the huron nation he declared some time durino the sixteenth century the hur- on clan which followed the custom mlt have searched carerully for good locat on to make a common krave for all members of the tribe who had died during the previous twelve years when the first of these mounds was selected after search as the proper site the bodies ho had dl intervening since the ment were removed from their ori pinal sciffolds bj their closest rela tles after the bones had been cleansed and cared for they were wrapped in the finest robes available and conveyed to the village where the were displayed for a short time together with offerings immediately afterward these remains were carried to the edge of the common grave which was us iall located in snndy sol on the top of a mound after assembling enormous piles of rich robes and omaments which had been riven as offerings the remains of the deceased redmen were carefully plac ed in the grave as the relatives and friends of the dead sang weird songs to express their bereavement th mains were covered with more robes usually beaver and corn was scattered into the grave so that the so lis of the departed might have sufficient to eaj during their long
