There seems to be no sacrifice of which sheis not capable. But recently she car- ried on the battlefields the sacred, creative fires of Prometheus. Her appearance healed. And there was never a whimper from her lips. The War Mother—have we ever given enough thought to he The War Mother who was the line behind the line, the last defense of the Allies, the wonderful unmurmuring being who gave father, son and husband as willingly as she gave herself to the call of her country for nurses. Woman is like France. In peace, in f is gay, pleasure-loving, all light and smiles; but when the tocsin of danger sounds to those she loves dearest, her spirit resolves itself to iron, her sinews become steel, her heart puts on its armor. She rises from her triviali- ties a Jeanne d’Arc, a Brunnhilde. The males of the Earth have made a fearful bungle of things. Comes the superman, Woman. Maybe she * can do better.

It is safe to say, however, that a great majority of His Honor’s readers get unalloyed pleasure from and are moved to happy reminiscence by this weekly collection of the work of these young wits and spoofers. Convention is scorned by these buoyant writers and embryo artists. They have not yet fallen under the inhibiting influence of their tutors and their elders. Soon enough they will curb impulse and cloak thought with a verbiage which softens or disguises natural incitement. In their student days they reveal all the originality of youth. Let sophistication come later. Jupce is projecting a College Wits Number—an issue of this magazine that will be chiefly devoted to the efforts of students in various colleges and universities— and plans to publish iton March 6. If the students are not seized with stage fright, and do what js expected of them, they will contribute originally to this number in the joyous spirit in which they work for their own magazines. And in that event a treat is in store for the readers of this periodical. JUDGELETS Many of us lay aside some- thing for a rainy day.
