What War Costs.

A secretary of a peace association
says: "The college education of boy
or girl. $l700. goes up in smoke every
time one of the big guns on warship
is fired. We often hear it said that
the discipline of the navy is a fine
thing for boys, but as matter of fact
six per cent interest on the value of
one dreadnought would keep every one
of them in colleges or technical
schools where they might be taught
some really useful trade. One per
cent interest on the value of a dread
nought would paw the combined sal
aries Of the college preside nts of the
country. The cost Of ali these things
is so stupendous tt we can't realize
it. If the war dc of Europe were
piled up in 81 bills it would make a
stack 1O4 miles high Ali the books in
all the libraries in the United States
are not worth as much as one warship. -
