] wonder what standards of thought, taste and conduct
will prevail in the years that lie just ahead. What-do present
day trends seem to portend? Are we destined to grow _ stil!
more sophisticated, modernistic and fantastic? or are we, even
now, drifting into an era of mid-Victorian restraint, and calm
sobriety? We are so prone to adopt fads and fancies that our
future is probably unpredictable; perhaps the past is the only
criterion by which the future may be forecast.
ie A few years since, . was present when a youthful disciple
of modernity was removing old American pictures from the
parental walls and replacing them with Japanese prints. The
owner of the discarded reproductions uttered feeble protests.
to no avail.
‘Those things are too obvious to be artistic,’ declared the
young exponent of the-subtle in art, afid in so far as obviousness was concerned, he was right.
‘In the first picture appeared an obvious ocean wave, hovered over by obvious sea gulls, in the second picture, one saw
an obvious desert, an obvious palm tree or two and an obvious
‘camel stalking the middle distance. Yes, those pictures certainly delineated the obvious; but to my mind, the Japanese
prints were also obvious. They represented obvious Japanese men, women and children and obvious parasols. The foreground and middle distance were fairly cluttered with obvious temples, pagodas and statues of “the great god, Budd.”
In the background were the obvious outlines of Japan's faroite hill, Fugi Yama.
Nothing so very subtle about all that, still, concealed behind an imposing statue of the peave loving Buddha there
may have been a gang of Japan’s subtle war lords, plotting
and planning that subtle attack upon Pearl Harbor.
I wonder what became of those: Japanese prints. Ten to
one, they are not adorning the parental walls today. Oh well,
we Americans are not inherently subtle, perhaps it would be
just as well for us, to cling to the obvious; there is plenty of it
to ¢ling to at the present time.
I wonder if it is not already obvious that Mr. Willkie
would not like to be the next occupant of the White House.
He is well worth watching, this man of the rasping voice and
the gogetter spirit and we voters should make ourselves familiar with his characteristics, and his brand of idealism. If we
do not, we may suddenly find ourselves confronted with the
question, ‘‘am . for him, or_agin’ him? With nothing of certain knowledge to guide us. Know thy candidate should be an
important command in every voter's decalogue.

; CENSORING THE CENSORS
The War Department asks anyone finding remarks added by censors in letters received from soldiers to report the incident to the Adjutant General. It says:
“Consorship of communications to and from persons
under military jurisdiction is a necessity in wartime to prevent
the disclosure of information which would give aid and com‘fort to the enemy. —
“The War Department has never intended that privacy
of the mail should be invaded beyond this absolute necessity
for security.
; Some of the remarks added by the censors have been witty or intended to cheer. But in too many instances the censors
have taken it upon themselves to scrible caustic comment on
