THE BLISSFUL IMPOSSIBLE
1A newspaper in conducting a discus
sion of whetitet war stuff was 01' mt;
in wanted by its readers to the exclu-
sion of e1e11tl1ing else 1eceived many
a
curious answers There were soul
people who Wt‘l‘t ‘tiied of so much war
ening and more, along the usual. no
‘ mai human lines. There were other:
who wanted nothing
and these formed by far the vast ma-
jority. V One of the most interesting of
‘the comments ran in this vein:
"We cant .'l1ave too much w'a1 stuff.-
It dosen't matter what several editors,
"may think or what their traders may
think-the press has its undoubted
utility to lay on the Win stuff. The
papers ha\e got to ghe the people war
stuff whether they want it or not If
they don’t want it they ve got to have
it anyhow.
"Go on with the war stuff. It is ad-'
suitable. Dont allow your ,work to bc
I
.want the blissful impossible"
it is that last phrase which holds the;
mind. Anything other than war at
the present. time makes the nation
seem. ostticb- like,

few days by the submarine raids upon
our home waters. The police order to

reference to Coney Island and other

near feeling of the war. One large

to be reborn, it gets itself born some-
how. Always the soul re-enters hu~
man life under conditions that will en-

Before the war, when the German
birthrate was rising. it meant that
great numbers of souls were incarna

needed the experience that German en-

the Theosophists. if fewer souls are

WILSON FOR SUFFRAGE
President Wilson has wired to State

One of President Wilson's
marked characteristics is that of being
. able to change his point of view on any
. subject in accordance w1th ‘his reading
|of public opinion. When he finds that
lhe is mistaken, he is not afraid or
ashamed to say so flankly. This is
of vaclllation. but
