THURSDAY, NOV. I, 1912.

Prophecy has proven of little value
In giving the world information as to
the relative strength Of the Balkan
States and Turkey. Upon paper it was
easy to figure out the defeat OF the
allies, and there emanated from Euro
pean sources, supposedly informed, nu-
merous agreeing forecasts OF the re-
verse of the situation that now, ac-
cording to the cablegrams, exists.
What the result will be; whether
there will be European complications,
is guesswork. But that new Bull
garia is introduced to the world as one
of the results of less than a months
fighting is undeniable.
The decadence of Turkey is probably
more advanced than the nations had
believed. IL was assumed that the
"Terrible Turk" would be a different,
and more difficult, adversary upon
land and with his back to CONSTANT
nople, than he had proven in the re-
cent brush with Italy. While the in
dividual is probably still excellent ma
terial for the making OF soldier the
inference, from the course events have
taken, is that the Turkish army is in a
demoralized condition, and that the
Ottoman Empire, never constructive
in, 10 or 10
more truly "The Sick Man" than it
had been believed to oe. Nevertheless
bulk is factor in military operations,
and the brilliancy of the Bulgarian vic
tory that is reported must be estimated
TO some extent in accordance with
relative numerical strength of the OPP
posing forces. The Bulgarians are evil
IDENTIFY in fighting trim to degree
hardly suspected by observers of the
little known NEAR East"
No matter what the other, ard per.
haps more important, results shall be,
one effect Of the war now in progress
will be TO attract more Of the worlds
attention to the Balkan States as mill
tary entities worthy of more serious
consideration than they received prior
70 their determination TO undertake
settling their long unsettled score with
their Mohammedan neighbor, who was
believed by other Powers able to fall
upon them and crush them by dead
weight even if no longer possessed Of
the peculiar ability to fight that had
distinguished the Turk for centuries

Theory and Experiment.

Theory and experiment must &C
hand in hand, and much depends on
one as much as on the other, moi
merely on its accuracy but also upon
It's nature. Hundreds of experiments
HAY be made, which, however, not
withstandng their refinement and
accuracy, contribute little to the
march Of human progress in the right
direction; they may of course in
ages count for much, but the chiel
thing Is that the experiment should
be of the right kind, and it Is often
desirable that as much time, II moi
even more time, should be spent In
deciding upon the right thing to be
done than In doing that thing itself
one bad theory is often worse than
ten bad experiments because even
II THESE are properly carried out, they
may yet, Il based upon false notions
add little or nothing. If not . the
store at least to Tho III ,dncement Of
knowledge; ana count almost for az
httle as the one bad experiment
whether based upon theory or not
