inspiring; and among the disadvantag ges of an effective national existence in the modern world there are many that are both morally and economically far more harmful and oppressive than those of defense. Some of the advocates of peace seem to think that the case against war is complete when they have detailed the horrors of a battle field and added up the moneys lavished on ornaments that are obsolete almost as soon as they are finished You might as well condemn painting by holding up an artists pal cite to the unjudging public gaze.
 There are a dozen features in our social and industrial system that not only cost more in lives, but infinitely more in misery and degradation, than war and that are wholly destitute of those fortifying and clarifying quail ties, which, so long as friction and trial brace character, will always redeem the visible brutalities of armed conflict. A world without strife might be a world not only without strength, but predes- tined to anaemia and decay and a reign of universal peace might prove, in fact. to be a reign of universal despotisni. War has gone on continuously from the gray beginning of things, and may. for all we know. be an essential part of the basic law of all life. It will cease for the great majority of mankind only when there has been radical revolu- tion in the instincts of humanity, or when some power bestrides the earth like an incredibly vaster Roman em- pire.
