HEADLINES
I lose patience with the man who so pes- simistically regrets that he cannot look into the future. He would so like to be able to see ahead for one year-five years— even fifty years!
He admits himself ab- solutely floored, and goes on to wonder to what this war will lead us. He is afraid of the future!
I feel like vigorously slap- ping him on the back at the risk of breaking his neck, and saying "For goodness sake old man-cheer up! Don't worry about the future; do something in the present."
When I was a child, my father used to speak about "the good old days" (yest they were the days). Personally I found the present at that moment exceedingly agree- able. I do believe, however, that our children when they reach the mellow side of life will tell their children about "the bad old days.". What does. the future helt in atcro?

Is it not as obvious as the very sun itself that the days to come will be blessed with sanity and happiness? At the moment, we are unfortunate in living in an age when International probity
challenged, ridiculed violated by just one madruan, that temporary madness cannot by any process of reasoning be per mitted to obseure our vision of the future, nor shatter the belief in human nature and destiny.

Rather does it lend emphasis to the belief that the future will sco neighbourliness restored in a wider measure of trust than yet known.
M 1 Nobody with any gumption can discount the seriousness of the present situation. But it is that profound seriousness
disaster which some nations are on the verge of taking.
Against the wanton despoliation of any peaceful, but weak na- lions, there is arising a mighty and righteous indignation which will assuredly bring about the collapse
and utter defeat of the aggressors.

Last week I expressed the be- lief that Japan is beginning to distinguish between sanity madness, and the news of the past werk strengthens my belief. It takes a strong man to admit a weakness, but only the fool per- petunter his mistakes. The Japan- ese are not fools,
What was previously referred to as the, China Incident, has become a problem of the first magnitude for Japan. Is it unthinkable there- fore, that she could be so devold of comingn sense as to encourage Britain and America to join hands against her? The very idea is preposterous that is, assuming that the Japanese appreciate the extreme dificulty and delicacy of the professed unity of purpose with Hitler and Mussolint.

Having thrown in her lot with a madman umok, she will probably be the first of the due to become -taint-in-the-bloody_orgy.When. the day of retribution dawns, italy will find no sympathy, for she stands pre-judged for her criminal fally in joining and championing the world's foulest master of inoss murder, robbery and arson,
The heinousness of the crime of ititler and his. Italian confederate has appalled the world to such an extent, that there can be only one answer as to their treatment, and that answer must assure us as to what lies in the future."
Millions of people are at the moment dumb because of fear, but the time may not be so very dis- tant when they will regain freedom of thought, speech and action-and happiness. Worry not therefore about the future, but stand firm in the determination to bear the pre- sent and work confidently in the common cuuse.
