one point in view-that he will work;
all the time he is on duty duringI

the refinement Of skill and study, and

in those metal sides. They repre-

Where It's dissemination gave another
impetus to speculation, and before It
had subsided the worlds cables re-.
sumed operations.
An operator in transatlantic
cable Office, who for weeks had sat
before his silent keys, saw livid
signal flash, and sprang excitedly to
respond. Across the depths of the
ocean came the words:
''All embargos are removed. grhe
United States Of America gives greet
ing, and reiterates the message which
was the first to be transmitted, Peace
on earth. Good will to men,"
Events were now moving with such
prodigious rapidity that wherever
wires of communication ran men left
their occupations and waited for
whatever other remarkable informa-
ton might be forthcoming. For once
the nations seemed in such close
touch that they reached out to each
other to tell their own part in the
unfolding Of the great mystery. The
whole civilized world knew speedily
that the kaiser had been carried away
by accident, that his health had been
improved, and that he bore nothing
but good will toward his captors.
London transmitted the complete
story of the taking of the British feet,
elucidated the Dreadnought's singular
return, and also made known that the
king and his associates had visited
and been detained in Washington by
their own volition.
In the United States the night had
passed with most exceptional activ-
ity. The sight of the Roberts leaving

New York had been heralded from
coast to coast, and the administration,
besieged for information, yielded to
the popular demand and gave out the
history of the war, including the ac-
count of the invention and the crea-
tion of the plant on the Florida key.
The little inventor and his daughter
were thrown into the limelight, and
exaggerated accounts of their mar
velous work were spread over pages
of extras wherever newspapers were
printed. The public insistently clam
ored for news, more news, throughout
the hours, and seemed never satiated.
All eyes were turned to the presi-
dent, who finally, in desperation, de-
clined to make any further state
ments, and announced that details
would have to come in later sequence,
when time could be given to their die
tation.
From the great republic the cloak
Of mystery and inaction was thrown
aside and the cordons to the north and
the south were being dissipated as II
by magic. That menacing line Of blue
along the Canadian border was
crumbling with greater rapidity than
It had been formed. Here and there
through the air swept so radioplanes

commodations, the sun showing them

Seattle was at last liberated, and

OF adjudication and arbitration be
vested in a standing commission repre-.
senting each nation, which shall have
for its seat Of Office some place upon
which the greater number may agree.
"The United States, having faith in
the Anglo-Saxon race as representing
one Of the most peaceful and conserva-
tive, has formed an offensive and de-
fensive alliance with Great Britain,
through the personal efforts of the
king and his prime minister. These
two governments have no desire to
act as peace officers for the world,
but pledge themselves to place all
their power at the command of the
international commission for the en-
foreement of its findings"
The German emperor, true to his
promise, was the first to give official
ratification to the message, and added
thereto his earnest entreaty that all
powers might speedily join. He Of
fered an eloquent argument in its be-
half, fortified by his own observations,
and reviewed the reasons why Ger
many had previously declined disarm-
ament in conferences at The Hague.
His attitude was that of impartialjty.
and no mention was made Of the
mooted questions between Great Brit
ain and his own country, which were
later adjusted satisfactorily through
the commission, and passed into his
tory as the first dispute which that
body was called upon to arbitrate.
There followed brief lapse of days,
In which the other nations Of the
earth studied this communication in
temper according to their desires.
1t came as an amazing document in an
epoch which was uprooting existing
conditions and establishing new ones.
The underlying threat of interference
In any international war, however,
made it patent that the wisest course
would be in graceful acceptance.
Hence 1t was that all the principal
governments bound themselves in the
compact. The last page had been
written in the voluminous history of
strife. The Kissing of the barb, the
retching of the catapult, the clangor
of sword and buckler, and the booming
Of cannon, which in the course of time
had succeeded each other, were sounds
to be heard no more on land or sea.
Peace had at last assumed it's tranquil
dominion.
When the last acceptance from the
most laggardly nation was received,
the news was made known to the
silent man in the White House. 1t
was on another night in summer when
the moon cast it's shadows over the
city and the shining breast of the
river. Still alone, bnt now beloved
and understood by all his countrymen,
he knelt by an open window, and, with
a face glorified by the radiance Of the
night and his thoughts, thanked the
God who had made him steadfast to
accomplish his desire. The president,
too, had reached his goal of dreams.

few the Norma, her colors huttering
in the breeze of flight as they had
done on that day when she swooped
down through screaming shells to
wrest power from the enemy. Float
ing after her moved the huge Roberts,
its metal sides throwing back the
rays Of the western sun. Close be-
hind in stately pursuit was Seven
teen, whose plates had felt the biting
force Of the dead Yakumo's guns.
And so they came, bidding farewell
to the ships of an abandoned sea.
Small wonder that the soul of the girl
who watched felt one instant's regret
that she was never again to know the
exhilaration Of the fray! A half smile
of tenderness parted her lips as she
thought that there in the air above
her were her friends and companions
in arms-grim old fighting Bevins
with his prayerful oaths, good-natured
Brockton whose kindliness she knew,
and studious little Jenkins whose i'm.
perturbability equaled his steadfast
bravery.
Guy, understanding and respecting
the storm of feeling which must be
hers at sight of this pageantry Of
which she had been such a vital part,
watched her in silence. Almost at
their feet squatted Fort Hancock.
whose guns were to below for the
last time. It too, like its fellow forts,
was of the dying. Like them its bas.
tions would be abandoned and the
men within driven to ways Of peace.
Fortress and ship, garrison and crew,
would be no more. Crumbling, un-
tenanted walls left as records Of
nations defense, and rotting uniforms
relegated to garrets, would be all that
were left-armies reorganized and re-
duced for police force only, and sail
ors become fishermen or passing their
lives in other occupations and rem
iniscensing Of the sea; swords rusting
in scabbards and guns corroding in
embrasures, nothing more!
The last salute had doomed out.
Lower and lower flew the radioplanes,
till they were close above the outgoing
ships. The ports of the peacemakers
opened, and from them fell garlands
of flowers, which fluttered down
through the air indiscriminately upon
the doomed craft and the waves them
selves-a tribute of peace from the
living and wreaths for the dying
gladiators Of war.
Hand in hand Norma and Guy stood
upon the headland beneath the gray
beacon lights that would welcome
strange travellers from foreign ports
no more. Into the darkening skies Of
the east the fleets of the nations were
speeding to dissolution and death.
The long, steady swell of the free and
unburdened sea came monotonously;
hammering at their feet. In silence
they watched the relics of cruel war
sail out, saw their hulls disappear.
saw the trails of smoke diverge as
each squadron sought It's own course,
and then looked into each others
eyes, reading therein nothing but a
promise Of love and serenity. Thein
troubles had vanished as had those
fleets of the sea, and life with all it's
possibilities of accomplishment and
contentment was before them. They
turned from the great silent ocean
and walked into the golden radiance Of
the sunset toward their home.

when stripped Of outward rank and
position were very similar, and could
demand only such respect from their
fellows as they were entitled to by
merit. Honest companionship which
sought no other return was price,
less treasure. And now with this new
view Of life, stronger in health and un-
jaundiced in mind, he was glad to ally
himself and his empire in movement
which promised advancement without
conquest and gain without aggression.
The drums Of war sounded very hol-

from Australia hobnobbed with men
of New Zealand; and the folk of Italy
bowed gravely to the cavaliers of old
