PEACEFUL PARLEYS
-ON IRISH QUESTION
Successful Termination is Cer-

Continues Another Week.
A despatch from London says: -
The third session of the Irish Peace
Oonference eves held on Thursday at
10 Downing street. That ie the extent
of the information officially available,
and it is universally regarded as. good
ews, If the same can- be said at the
end of next week a successful issue
to the Conference is practically cer-
tain.
The wdtodo British, delegation was
present, Chamberlain having recover-
ed 'from his illness, and the honer and
a half' during which the session lasted
was devoted leo discussion of the work
of the conunittee appointed at the last
session In discuss 'breaches of truce.
The question of the treatment of Irish
interned in prison and the Irish de-
mand fee their release were also dis-
cussed, but so fair nodecision was
reached. There has never been a Peace
Conference et which greater secrecy
was observed than at this one.
"Broadening Out" the
University.
During the ,past week the provincial
university has undertaken to provide
study clews in accordance with re-
queste received from Junior Farmers'
Institutes and Junior Women's' Insti-
tutes in Ohel'tenhan, Streetsville, and
Brampton respectively. In each case
the personnel of the classes will con-
sist of young mere and young women
from the farms' in the vicinity and in
each case' also the request is for in-
struction in English literature. Be-
lieving that such a movement towards
higher education is one of the most
encouraging signs of this new era,
the University of Toronto is endeav-
oring to provide instruction in all

What "Daring" Means.
Certain words. have came to be Used
loosely and are applied to those who
have no right to them.
They should be restored •to the true
significance and their lawful pro-
prietorship.
One of these words is "daring," as.
it is conunonly applied to books, and
plays and their authors to -dray. •
What is "daring" in flagrant
coarseness designed to sell? "Daring"
is supposed to be synononnous with
brave or heroic. What title has a
writer to be thus characterized- when
he -or she -is -merely trying to see
how cheap and -nasty he -or she -
"dares" to be?
Truly, there ought to be a distiarc-
tion made between a deed that wins
the Military Medal, the Victoria Crass
or the Croix de Guerre and the work
of one who' is simply trying to dis-
cover hew to play on a depraved in-
stinct for profit.
The theory of some producers of
drama and purveyors of literature is
bleat if the public will stand for it it
must be all right.
Let us call whet they inflict on the
theatregoeus and the book -readers
exactly what it is -dirty, not daring.
Their action is not courage. It is not
even recklessness. It is mere shame-
lessness. It is done not for art, but
for gain,
Our men who fought at Vimy Ridge
and at the Somme were "dating."
They risked everything they had; and
the. proof of it is that thousands re-
turned to their homes no more. It is
belittling their sublime and magnifi-
cent exhibition of courage to apply the
sante language to them and to the
pornographer who regards the public
as an insatiable shock -absorber, ready
to reward with cash those who grati-
fy its pruriency.
"Daring" should be applied to the
highest and not the lowest traits in
our humanity.

Late Developments in
Poison Gas.
•
Since the war all the great Power's
have been- hard at work on the gas
problem. For it seems to be fully re-
cognized that in future in internation-
al conflicts poison ga-s will be the chief
killer, '
To the every -day peaceable citizen
this idea is particularly interesting, in-
asmuch as it is expected that cities
and towns will be systematically de-
luged with gas, dropped in bombs from
airplanes. Whole populations -men,
women and children -will be wiped
out. The rule against idlitug non-com-
batants na longer holds.
Gas operations during the recent
war were crude and hardly more than
experimental, Next time they will be
conducted on a huge scale, scientifical-
ly, and with chemicals. incomparably
more destructive to human life.
Soon after this new and frightful
weapon came into use, it was realized
that what was really needed was a
gas that would be invisible and odor-
less; so as to give no warning of Its
presence in the atmosphere. It must,
of course, be heavier titan air, so as
to sink into dugouts and collars, where
refuge might be sought, and there re-
main, as it were, in pools. In addi-
tion, to lie wholly satisfactory, it must
poison the human system by mere con-
tact with the skin, so that gas -masks
would furnish no protection.
The U,S. chemical warfare service
was working on this problem during
the war, and solved it. A gas called
"Lewisite" was developed which met
all of the above-mentioned require.
meats, and great quantities of it were
being manufactured for use in the ex-
pected campaign of 1919, when sudden.
I. the ae'nsletice
A gas bomb is a stere container: its
walls only thick euough to hold the
fluid chemical; hence nearly all of its
weight is represestril ler its contents.
A single such gravity projectile may
carry 500 or 1,000'pocunds of the lethal
stuff, and if dropped upon a town it
cannot mien the target. It is esti-
mated that a dozen Lewisite bombs of
large size might, with a favoring t
breeze, destroy the entire population
or a big city.
It. is understood that since the emits- P
tice the chemical warfare service has
produced, a gas that Is even mere ef-
fective than Lev.•isite, inasmuch Inc its
spread is far greater relatively to the
quantity of chemical used. .4. mere
capsule of it in a entail grenade can
generate acres of death.
Facts such as these cannot be made
too widely known or impressed too
strongly upon people's minds in order
that fear and horror of wee' may be-
come so great that nations will no
longer undertake that criminal method
of settling their quarrels.
