NNE of the questions which
most profoundly interest
all thoughtful Frenchmen
at the present moment is that of
an alliance between their country
and Spain. The fear Of Germany
hangs over the French republic
as that Of the Gauls, lowering in
dark clouds behind the Alps, hung
over ancient Rome.
Amid all the talk Of peace,
which is everywhere so popular
to-day, there is no mistaking the
fact that in France every heart
is heavy with thoughts of war. If
It were a war of aggression and
conquest that lowered in the near
future, the hearts of the French
people would be not heavy, but
jubilant But the approach Of
defensive war invariably saddens
the spirits of those who expect to
be its victims.
The simple fact, which one sees
repeated again and again in the
French newspapers, that the popu-
lation of Germany is increasing at
the rate of a million year, while
that of France is stationary. II not
declining, is sufficient to awaken
the gloomiest forebodings.
1t is a spectacle that moves the
sympathy of a foreign visitor to
see this great people, with their
glorious past irradiating them like
the splendor of a sunset, compelled
to meet the menace OF their mighty
foe, with his constantly swelling
armies. by the almost pitiful de-
vice of forcing their sons to spend
an additional year of their youth
in camps, because there are no
crowds of successors coming up
from the cradle to take their
places.

wishes for an alliance with Spain
in order that Spanish armies may
aid in the protection of France
The coming war and nothing else
is the dominant thought in every
Frenchman' mind as he does his
best to win friends for his threat
ened fatherland
But there is a broader aspect to
this subject, which is revealed in
a remark Of the famous French
authoress, Madame Adam. When
asked recently her opinion about
the proposed Spanish alliance, she
replied that such an understanding
appeared TO her desirable in every
sense of the word And then she
added some remarkable sentences:
Heroic is Spain throughout her
whole history" said Madame Adam.
Her women personify her heroism,
not only in their defense of Sara
sossa, but in their passion often

Queer Opinion of Spanish People

The world Is doomed to see
much fighting yet. Armies are not
going to be abolished tomorrow or
the next day. Every new invention
is instantly seized upon to add to
the military power of the nations.
The reign of the lawyers is not
going Immediately to succeed that
of the warriors. The judges, with
their long robes, their powdered
wigs and their heads filled with
precedents and legal technicalities,
are not on the point of crowding
out the generals with their swords,
their gold-laced coats and their
strings OF glittering medals.

But-war, while seeming to rem

1t is stumbling under the weight

LITTLE girl ran away from
~ school the other day and
tried to kill herself be-
cause the girl who sat in front of
her shifted when the teacher
asked what the little girl in the
back seat was called.
II don't know her name" said
the little girl in front. II never
met her" And she tossed her
silly little added pate into the
air, and looked as scornful as she
conveniently could. All the other
girls Uttered and the boys
grinned, and the little girl in the
back seat simply couldn't stand 1t
another day, so she ran away and
went and walked into a pond and
tried to drown.
When they carried her home
her mother found out all about
what a bad time she'd been hav-
ing at school, so she kept her at
home a few days and then sent
her to another school, where the
girls weren't such geese, or at
least where they didn't dare to
show 1t If they were.
By this time the girl is probably
very happy. Perhaps she is even

and short skirty coats
What troublous times they are
going through, some of these
children we know, right now, in
the beginning of the new school
year.
Your New School.
Do you remember the new
school where you went, when your
dress was long and all the other
girls dresses were short, and you
wished you were dead every time
you saw somone looking at those
skirts and smiling ever so little?
Do you remember the awful boy
who raised his hand and wanted
to know whose hair was the red
dest, yours or the carroty boys in
the last row?
doh, how web dol I have
lived through some moments that
were hard, some moments that
were difficult, since that awful
one, but have never felt quite so
desperate as I did then-and I
was only Z and didn't know how
TO conceal my feelings.
There was a way, knew that
much vaguely-grown-up did it
let people look straight into
their minds-they wore kind of
mask or something. I had seen
my mother do II when the cook
threatened to leave at an inoppor-
tune moment. But I didn't know
how, and every grinning torturer
in that schoolroom saw how suf-
fered and they gloried in 1t.
One of the big newspaper men
of the country told me once that
he couldn't bear the sight of any
thing red.
