The strike of the railway men did not materialize. Maybe it was well that It didn't, but the union heads lead us to believe that the relief is only temporary. The result of the nego tiations with the labor board preced ing the cancelation of the strike is claimed as a victory for the unions. In ether words they -gained more than the executives and the labor board were willing to peacefully grant them. The will for a nationwide strike seems to remain with them yet. Pos sibly, however, saner leadership will prevail and railroad workers may come to a realization that the country must have cheaper railroad transpor tation or no railroad transportation at all. * * * DISARMAMENT-"WHY NOT? In more than one recent coimuni cation the President has made it plain that the forthcoming conference in WAshlngton is not in fact expected to affect the degree of armaments suf fleently to usher in the plow-share a4d pruning-hook :period but only that, by intelligent consultation fol lofwed by mutual consent, some ar rangement may be arrived at to stop the mad rush toward over-armament and ruinous taxation. If all the nations were as rich in available resources as this one, the peasimists might be right in agreein-g wholly with the late Senator Ingalls when lie said "the purification of poli tics is an irredescent dream." 1lut, fortunately for the .peace of the world, most other nations are already taxed to the limit of their resources. So, that, even though the -world may not be getting abstractly better any too faci, there comes in the practical 'question of ability to pay; and n< administration of any government call bo.expcted to be so blind to its owin interests las thus to miss an opportun ity".to matp'illy decrease the tax-rate by aubscribing to an agreement which at least on its face, is highly humani tarian.

Musgrove Mill Chapter D. A. R., has for the second time, been called utpon to mourn the death of one of It's cherished daughters. Mrs. Laurens 'lienn Davis, wife of W. V. Davis, i.aving been a loved and honored nem ber of our chapter for years, 'her de mise has left a vacancy in our hearts and ranks, felt by us-not only as D. A. R.-ibut as personal friends. giler devotion to church, home and country was never questioned; so ful ly did she Jill and grace her place in each. Loyal, eilleient, and unassuming, this charter member served her Chap ter as member and officer with wo ntInly dignity. irs. Davis came of ancestry distinguished for just such (ualities as were found in her. M1ay her children measure up to their heri tage, "marrying on" as did this mother. In her passing, her family has sus t-ained al irretrievable loss, and we, her co-workers and friends a stagger ing blow. Musgrove Mill Chapter shares with her loved ones the cross they bear, and extends sympathy to all iwho called her relative or friend. "I believe that in her death, she has reached a world where the mercy of God abounds, and I know that in the world of women, the sadness of her loss will 'be felt the most 'by those who knew her best," can in truth 'be said of Laurens. "I can not say and I will not say That she is dead-she is just away; With a cheery smile and a wave of the hand She has rwandered Into an unknown land, And left us dreaming 'how very fair It needs must be--since she lingers there. And you, 0 you, who the wildest yearn For the old time step and the glad return, Think of her faring on, as deal' 'In the love of there, as the love of here. Think of her, still as the same, -I say; 'She is not dead--she is just away." The committee recommends that this memorial, Inadequate though it be, he spread upon our Minutes, and a copy of same 'be sent her Immediate family. 'Respectfully, ('Signed) 'Mrs. Jos. A.

NEW FRENCH LINER ARTISTIC The Paris, Recently Launched, Has Eleven Decks and Is Like an Art Museum. A writer in a recent number of Le Petit Parisien devotes nearly a column of most poetic prose to the new steam ship Paris of the French Transatlantic (company, launched recently at Le lavre for the New York runm The Paris is a little , tore than seven hun dred and sixty-eight feet in length (not quite as long as the Mauretania), has 11 (leeks, 04 lifeboats and three stacks. 11er weight is 35,000 tons. While not rualatinl, the new liner is dlescribied as a wor'k of art. She car ries a crew of 0064 and about 3,000 pas sengers. Among the features of her equIpment are mentioned a terraced eate and an elaborate children's play room. The vessel Is an oil burner, and all the cooking and heating is done by electricity. fThe French writer, above mentioned, observes that the P'aris would do very nicely as a museum and~ is a "perma nent, lasting salon of modern French art." In the grand. drawing room, lined with mauve woodwork, tihe Pain ter L~aliqume has employedl a design of butterfiloes replreseniting the hours, while ma synibolicnl canvas from die brush of Albert Jlesnurd 'pays homage to France an d Ameirlca.
