There's the) Morrls-McVcy marriage The cnRUKO ment was announced on Monday or Tucs ay, and Just as you wcro about finished aylng, "Have you heard tho latest engage ment?" you heard they had been married t Et John's on Friday afternoon. Of course, nil formal engagements are not as brief as that, but there's not much delay after nn engagement Is announced in theso times. Francis Morris Is a cousin of the beautiful Mrs. John Thayer, Jr.. you know. His brother Is the Rev. Richard Morris, whoso daughter Elizabeth Is cn garcd to young Wlllard Spenser, Jr. A wee bird told mo recently that they were going to bo married soon, too; and Regi nald Morris Is another brother. After a wedding trip the newly married Mr. and Mrs. Morris will live at Hampton road. THE Historical Society skipped Its recep tion on Saturday night, but there Is to be one next Saturday, at which Mrs. Ar thur II. Lea will be tho -hostess. There were about 1200 guests at tho last affair, and Miss Lydla T. Morris was the hostess. Mrs. Charles Roberts gavo a talk on Wil liam Penn, which was most interesting, and Mrs. Hot- sang delightfully. Have you heard about the historical hikes for enlisted men which are conducted - by Mr. Albert Cook Myers on Sunday after; noon's? Tho. men start from "Dad's Booth," haltine at various places of historical In terest, such as City Hall, the postofllce (the spot 'where Franklin Is supposed to have flown, flew, filed, or, anyhow, where he sent his kito up In tho air), tho State House, Congress Hall, Carpenter's Hall and all tho othors. Tou probably know - them, but I don't believe you've been to many of them, unless you'vo had a country cousin or a Visitor from another state staying with you, so that you had to. Isn't It awful, tho way wo don't apprcclato our historic city? A Now Yorker told me tho other day that when ho came to Philadelphia ho 'was hor ribly disappointed, because ho expected to walk down Chestnut or Broad street and have tho Betsy Ross house appear right next to Memorial Hall, and Carpenter's Hall next, rubbing elbows with tho Mint, while a block down tho street would loom up Independence Hall and Christ Church. It was Quite a shock to have It look Just like any other modern city, and not even to sea any houses of Revolutionary times dotted about tho streets. WERE you not terribly shocked to near of Sydney Ellis Chcston's death on Friday in New York? You know RadclKTe had only arrived homo from overseas two weeks ago from yesterday and ho had not yet got his discharge from tho army, so that he could not be with her much during her Illness. I have been told that sho went on to New York to stay with l.cr sister in order to bo near her husband, who was stationed in ono of the Long Island camps. Last Monday Mrs. Paine, who was Helen Ellis,' sent word to her n.tthcr of Mrs. Cheston's Illness ond Mrs. Ellis went on to New York to help nurso her. It was pneumonia, and, of course, every care was given. Tho Chcstons were married In Oc tober of 1916 and they had a lovely homo In Chestnut Hill. I am so glad that Cap tain Chcston did return homo and was able to see his wife beforo this sorrow came to him and his little children, for they had two little ones, a boy and a girl. Mrs. Chestorl came of a distinguished family. Her father, Mr. William Struthers Ellis, Is the son of the late Mr. Rudulph Ellis, and her mother was Miss Clntra Hutchinson, a sister of Mr. Sydney Emlen Hutchinson and of Mr. S. Pembcrton Hutchinson, of this city. Mrs. Cheston was the eldest of the three daughters, the others being Mrs. George Eustls Paine and Miss Clntra Ellis, tho latter not having yet made her debut. The funeral will take place from the Ellis home today and the services will be held In the Church of the Good Shepherd, tiwStosemont, at 3 o'clock. JACKIE Is seven. And it Is generally allowed that at seven one has attained the age of reason. Jackie Is very reasonable and reasoning. He Is equally extremely logical, and when teacher found htm kiss ing little Mary she found his logic quite perfect. "Jackie," she Inquired, "Is Mary a little neighbor of yours?" "No." (Ah, then since It wasn't friendship, what was it, thought teacher.) So she pursued further: "Why did you kiss little Mary, then, Jackie?" "Because L like her," said Jackie. "I like her hair and her,pretty rosy cheeks, so I kissed her." You'll agree it was per fectly logical, and so he acted with perfect logic. It seems to me there's nothing slow about Jackie.

WILLIAM PENN URGED "LEAGUE OF NATIONS" Suggestion of Union Similar to Wilson's Plan Made While Hiding in London A plan for a league of nations, strik ingly similar In principle to the constitution for permanent peace Just presented to the Atlled conference by President Wilson, was brought forth by William Tenn In 1603, while he was hiding In London from tho wrath of William of Orange. , With wars raging on tho continent of Europo and the, revolution of 1059 In Eng land yet fresh In tho minds of the people, Penn, still under the Imperial ban because of his alleged complicity In tho mocment to mako James II King of England, wrote his great essay, "Looking Toward tho Pres ent and Future Tcaco of Europe." It was tho first formal scheme for a league of nations ever proposed by an English speaking person. There was one great plan of earlier dato propounded by Henry IV of France and called tho "Great Design." Terhaps the best known and most signifi cant modern essay on this great question Is Kant's "Eternal Peace." Today this far reaching principle seems rlpo for fulfillment In the charter of International arbitration, whoso chief sponsor Is the President of tho United States. rrtiented Idea to quern renn was granted his entire llbetty by TMUIam toward tho end of 1693. Ho then presented to Queen Mary a copy of his essay, In which he showed tho desirability of peace throughout tho world, instead of war, and suggested the sending of deputies by all nations to a. general conference. As recently as 1850 a copy of his plan was sent to a peace conference being held In Paris, where It made a great Impression as foreshadowing certain plans thero under consideration. In referring to his great scheme, Penn wrote: . "I hope this cfsay will not be harged upon me for a fault, If It appear to bo neither chimerical nor Injurious and may provoko abler pens to Improve and perform the design with better Judgment and success. "This undertaking Is the fruit of my solici tous thoughts for the peace of Europe, and they must want charity as much as the world needs quiet to bo offended with me for so pacific a proposal. Ix-t them censure my management so they prosecute the ad vantage of the design : for till the millenary doctrine lio accomplished there Is nothing appears to me so beneficial an expedient for peace and happiness of this quarter of tho world," Teace and U Ailtsntnrf In the first section of his plan Penn speaks "cf peace nnd Its adantnges." "He must not be a man. but a statu? of brass or stone." the eisay begins, "whoso bowels do not melt when he beholds the bloody tragedies of this war. In Hungary. Germany, Flanders, Ireland and at sea, the mortality of sickly and languishing camps and navies and tho mighty prey the dcourlng winds and waves have made upon ships and men since "88 (1688). What can we desire better than peace than the grace to use It? Wlth'what easo and advantage the peace of Europo might bo procured and kept." Section 2 deals with the "means tt peace, which Is Justlco rather than war." It de. Clares that "as Justice Is a preserver, to It Is a better procurer of peace than war. If we look over tho stories of all times wp shall find the aggressors generally moved by' ambition, tho pride of conquest and greatness of domination more than right "I shall endeaor to make It evident that theso leviathans had never been able to devour tho peaco of tho world and engross whole countries as they har done If tho proposal I hac to make had been In prac tice.' I say Justice Is tho means of peace." Section 9 meets tho question "of the oh Jectlons which may be adanccd against the design." He answers them one by one. The first Is "that the strongest and richest mjv erelgnty will never agree to It and. If It should, there would be danger of corruption more than of force." His answer to this ob jection Is that "he Is not stronger than ajl tho rest." Second Otijfrtlnn Te second objection Is "that It will en danger an effeminacy by such a disuse of soldiery." His answer to this Is that there Is no danger of effeminacy because each sovereignty may Introduce as temperate or severe a discipline In the education of youth as they please by "low" living nnd due labor. The third objection Is "that there will be great want of employment for younger brothers of families and that the poor must either turn soldiers or thieves." He states that this can be avoided by the gocrnnient assuming a solicitous attltudo toward tho education of Its youth. The fourth objection Is "that sovcrlegn princes nnd states will hereby become not sovereign, a thing they wilt neyer endure." How this coincides with the attitude of cer tain Senatcrs on the floor of tho United States Senate today, who are maintaining that this country will sacrifice Its Independent rights by Joining tho proposed leaguc-rt na tions. Penn answers this argument by pass ing that the objectors are assuming a mis. taken attitude. "They remain at homo as sovereign as ever they were." he says. ''It may be the war establishment may be re duced, which will. Indeed, of course, follow or be better employed to the advantage of the public. If this be called a lessening of their power It must be only because tho great fish can no longer eat up the little ones nnd that each sovereignty Is equally defended from Injuries nnd disabled from committing them." . Real Benefits llerlted Section 10 recites "tho real benefits that flow from the proposal about peace." "Let lv not be the least." wrote the great Penn. "that It prevents tht spilling of so much human and Christian blood. A thing bo offensive to God nnd terrible and afflicting to men must recommend our expedient be vond all objections. The repudiation of Christianity will. In some degree, be recov ered In sight of the Infldels. It saves money. Towns, cities nnd countries that might bo laid waste by the rage of war are preserved Another benefit Is the ens and security of travel and traffic. It will beget and Increase personal friendship between princes and states, which tends to the rooting up of Wl"'conoluslon, Tenn expressed hwlsh. In paying tribute to the earlier conception of Hen" n of France, that the honor of the proposal, might "be owing" to England. .
