The trip to the shore was as un expected as the possibility of a run "up to Atwater seemed remote to us. We had gone up to Marion's to play cards and meet the Wheatley sisters, Nannette and Lucy Belle.

Wonder ish for all his "sophistication All of which brings us to a rather late hour and the young hostess' belief that we'd be much safer snuggled up in one of the twins, in one "third floor front. Ana anyhow we wanted to talk about thinn About "things," not persons i (Altho we. did learn that Dr. r.

U. stuons nas precisely the same initials as some one else weve met!) Where Are We? 'N so we talked until our theme was exhausted, then we read news papers and magazines Medical, and Soviet Russia, and saw where Theodore Dreiser predicts (altho it takes no great prophet any longer to foretell the trend of the nations' mind) a war a description of which is beyond all power of hu man conception. Frances "Franz Josef" was merely the faint sound of a tocsin struck from afar but7 its echoes will ring down into the first cannon's mouth! And all of this is forecast if and "in case!" But there are no "ifs" and "in cases." it's just a question of time, and a comparatively short time at that! "When self the wav ering balance shake, 'tis rarely right adjusted." until some grand and complete upheaval reduces all alike to a state of exhaustion, if not insensibility Then we may regain consciousness and our bal ance and "see things aright." and set them right! If for no other reason (that is. discounting Japan's imperialistic ambitions, and India's state of "passive resistance," and sundry other con tributary factors and abetting forces) it would be perfectly human for the rest of the nations to resent America's com plaisent and smooth countenance. Its face without a scar! Un less, of course, you except its Al Capones, its Lindbergh scandal, its bitter prejudices.

Its lynchings, its polluted political its B. EL warfare, its state of utter dejec tion among the unemployed But these are all self inflicted. It has suffered none of the tortures and degradations of the; war torn territories. Still its own internal strife is rendering it physically, mentally and morally incapable of combatting a sudden outside on and i of building up a proper defense mechanism Certainly the foreign powers are not blind. Theyve been making visits to this country those shrewd, polished diplomats and ministers of good will Those darker skin ned statesmen upon whom white America looks down from a lofty (but now crumbling peak).

(The gesture spoke for itself, and sufficed for us!) Come to think of It, it, might' fit right in here! i We've taken the liberty to caption it: TO A FRIEND "Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort, of safe with a person, having neither, weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all out. chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful hand will take them! and sift them, keep what is worth' keeping; and.

We made good time going aown and better coming back Wending our way through traffic along Indiana avenue, we encountered the veteran newspaperman Thomas W.

Going down to the beach we encountered and met Mrs, Charles Shipley, of Baltimore: Dr. and Mrs. Lawrence Christmas and greeted once again the Henry Lindseys whom we met when in Pittsburgh and who were guests of the Christ mases: Dr. Edward Scott and his two cute youngsters, and Dr. Chauncey Harllee.

It was our first contact with Bahaism so we list.od well and learned quite a bit. The group has a large tract of land up there, with an Inn and several cottages, as well as a Fellowship house that is just too ducky for words. We Just fell in lov9 with its antique furnishings and the natural wood paneling and the huge fireplace, yellow curtains and casement windows.

There are I half dozen or so bedrooms upstairs over." the main room and a huge porch overlooking the White mountains and a gorgeous deep blue lake. A very wealthy convert to Bahaism left the whole thing to the cause and each year the members come there from all over the world to confer and exchange thoughts. During the afternoon meeting, various members of the Boston group spoke as well as a few visitors who were also making their first trip to the conference. Among the speakers were Dr. T.
