Greece is now again in the possession of her ancient territory in Thrace and Asia Minor which she lost {before the Christian era. Venizelos, ranked at the peace conference as Europe’s greatest statesman, gained this victory for Greece in exchange for the {slight war service Greece had rendered the allied cause. i | But, Venizelos acted in all things as an autocrat, He was the allies’ man at Athens. He supported the allies’ action in forcing Constantine to abdicate. He defended the occu- y by the allies, as a means of fight- ermans, before Greece entered the | War. ‘The Greek people have gained more out of the war, pro- jportionately to their losses, than any other nation. But , they were not consulted about their country’s destiny. They jhad no particular affection for Constantine, But he was the head of their country, and he was deposed by foreign action. Freedom has no place in such a scheme of things. | If all the allies are wise, they will accept the verdict of |the Greek people. To attempt use financial pressure or jmilitary might for the purpose of nullifying the election result would only make matters worse. The Greeks are en- titled to name their own ruler. If they wish Constantine to return, that is their own affair. As for Venizelos, he has now learned the lesson which stands forth thruout all Greek jhistory. Greece ever casts aside her most beloved sons when they forget that democracy has its root in two words as ancient as the Greek language—demos (people) and krateo (rule), Passing the ‘assing Buck | “One reason you've heard so many kicks against the federal reserve board in recent months,” a banker sald, “is because some bankers | haven't the courage to take responsibility for thelr own decisiong, and | find it convenient to ‘pass the buck’ to the federal reserve board. | “For instance, a man came in this bank today and wanted to borrow} | $5,000 to buy stock in a speculative proposition.

If, however, he in not encouraged to overcome shyness and timidity and to anmert himself these faulty traits of character become more and more marked. ‘The child becomes reclusive largely beenuse of the greater tunity afforded hirn to weave fancies about his insufferable let Later in tife the habit of mtrospection thus formed ges as 8 mental pitfall. The wise teacher should note secluntvences tn ehfidren and the ten- fency of other children to leave them to this fate. If the true meaning of this is not understood, and if thru sympathy she makes the mistake! of encOuraging a child by adopting him, as it were as her Protege, the child soon looks upon the teacher as a substitute and clings to her as a protector and the tendency to indulge in reflections over his suppored | wrongs 18 encouraged.
