War Nutes. 
XVI. 
Far is the time, remote from human sight, 
When war and discord on the earth shall cease ; 
Yet every prayer for universal peace 
Avails the blessed time to expedite. 
—Hartiéy CoLkRIDGE 
Two bad men and each a killer: 
Crazy Kaiser, villainous Villa. 
Both accurst! 
Which the worst? 
’Tis but a question of simple detail— 
Murder wholesale or murder retail. 
Duty is ours, unflinching to pursue, 
Not asking what will happen if we do; 
Peace is a lovely creature, gentle-lipt, 
But most unlovely when of virtue stript. 
The 
The 
lure of war— 
gatling’s rattle, 
The zest of contest, 
The joy of battle! 
What though the field be gory, 
Our fame shall live in story, 
Our name be wreathed in glory. 
As long as meu resist, 
So long will war exist ; 
How then can warfare cease? 
We may not look for universal peace. 
—JosmpH A. ‘TorREy.
