while the gi might get very
tired at first because of the hard
work, they would soon obtain a
ded strength and joy in’ their
labors, Her unit, last summer
had to clean up the house and
other buildings in which they were
to be quartered. The corn crib
made a very comfortable room for
four—except when it rained, The
irls knew little about agriculture
first, but they soon learned that
ctables generally grow in rows,
weeds grow anywhere, snakes are
valuable to farmers, cows must be
milked at regular inter and
hens lay only one egg a day. They
hocd potatoes, cultivated, picked
fruit, cut and shocked corn, and
did all the work that a aired man
would do except mowine and feed-
ing the silo, The girls in this
group called the Bedford Unit
so had quite a bit of unique ex-
citement over the fact that some
of their neighbors thought them
to be from the Bedford Reforma-
tory.
Women can do farm work, and
have done it abroad for some time.
The question is whether the
Americin women will get busy
and make a success of it.

Utopian Democracy
Professor Kirtland, In Seventh Democracy Lecture,
Pleases Large Audience
Professor Richmond H. Kirt-
Jand, head of the English Depart-
ment, presented the seventh
lecture of the Iaculty series last
afternoon in the audi-

would ha it, and brought out
clearly the lessons of the great
In opening his speech, he said:
"We have little heart, now, for the
discussion of ideal democracy as a
thing remote; while the very exist-
ence of free institutions is in
hourly jeopardy; while the future
of liberty depends on the part
America plays by deed of, hand,

third, Only such faith can justify
our present academic use of time,
our attempt to look beyond war,
i nquil place, removed
from the strain of compulsory
choice between ways of life and
death, harsh judgments, are un-
becoming,—- notably in +t face of
$0 Bre ational achievement of
olid results where aff was to
rn, all to plan, all to be done.
‘The criticism of America by Amer-
icans must look constructively
forward, If we attempt to. cauter-
ize our faults, it must be for pre-
vention and cure,”
In consideration of war's inroads
upon democracy, the speaker con-
tinued: “War's one lack, as we
have already known it, and as our
Allies have suffered through it for
more than three years, has been the
lack of concerted leadership and
concerted policy, Only under fierce
impact of a final German drive has
a commander-in-chief of Allied
armies been chosen, American
leaderships found itself compelled,
or thought itself compelled, to
wait more than two ‘neutral’
years while the popular will
hardened for war. Those two
years have cost civilization dear!
We are told that debates resembl-
ing those of happier times delayed
the choice of machine guns for
almost a year; it took nearly an
equal time to prove to our biased
judges that French 75’s are the most
effective guns of their class in the
world; we have held that Amer-
ican motors must drive American
planes; for this, and certain other
reasons, we haye as yet contributed
little to the air service, beyond a
vicious speeding of German con-
struction, ‘Ihe competitive, gov-
ernment-hampered system of, rail-
road management, the individual-
istic control of food supplies,
through supply and demand, alike
broke down early.
“Our reactions from such costly
inefliciencies as these have brought
great changes, all in the direction
of unit control for unit purpose.
when a democratic nation
approaches the climax of a gigantic
war, national democracy, at least,
becomes Utopi a thing of
dream. It doubted
whether America has yet muddled
her way through to any clear con-
ception of the size of the job in
hand. We do not even know what
are the resou at hand; we have
no adequate industrial census; we
have permitted or required half a
million young farmers to enter the
army and navy, and have enticed
as many more away from the farm
by our ill-advised handling of
wages in factory work; we have
not attempted a reasoned distinc-
tion between and among the neces-
sities of peace, the comforts of
peace, the luxuries of peace, and
the requirements of — successful
war.”
Professor Kirtland then took up
the discussion of the lessons of
war, by asking whether we are to
admit that democracy is unsafe;
that only the strong arm avails;
that equality is only a dream; that
the will of the people is a myth;
that society always has been and
always will be made up of leaders
and the led; and whether we shall
confess that the primal instinct for
war survives yet,— that a healthy
young man loves war, even this
war,—even this war more than all
others, His summarizing query,
“shall we therefore say, back to
the good old days of each man for
himself, and the devil take the
hindmost, only let us keep a good
army and navy, and a better look-
out when the next war comes?”
With the statement “ Democracy
is unsafe in any nation which holds
aloof, secking its own ends, and
giving only where it may expect
return with interest. That nation
is unsafe which remains unfore-
warned, incredulous, unprepared,”
the speaker proceeded to name
several of the lessons of this war.
Among these were listed (1) the
necessity of the unity of all peoples
for neutral defense and service;
(2) the need for general disarma-
ment; (3) the need for even terms
of trade and intercourse; (4) the
need for regulated, non-individual-
ized management; (5) the necessity
for economic system; (6) that we
consider “office” no longer simply
an honor, but a grave duty; (7) the
need to teach broadly effective
citizenship; and (8) the need of a
