A very short proof of Seymour's theorem, stating that in bipartite graphs the minimum cardinality of a t-join is equal to the maximum cardinality of an edge-disjoint packing of t-cuts, is given. Let G be a graph and t:V(G)-, {0, 1}, where t(V(G)) is even. (If X~\_ V(G), then t(X):=E {t(x):xeX}.) A
A particularly well suited induction hypothesis is employed to give a short and relatively direct formulation of van der Waerden's argument which establishes that for any partition of the natural numbers into two classes, one of the classes contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions.
