WEDNESDAY, MARCH u, 1918
RHAPSODY IN CRAFTSMANSHIP.

When questioned as to his general
attitude on international peace, Sec
rotary Of State Bryan referred a par
ty OF inquiring correspondents to
speech he made in 1900 during his
second campaign for the presidency.
The passage offered is in the high
rhetorical vein of oratory, an array
of gereralizatlons expressed in high
strung but balanced periods. He pic
lures coming republic standing
erect while empires all around are
bowed beneath the weight of their
own armaments-a republic whose
flag Is loved while other flags are on
ly feared" Has Secretary Bryan ever
heard Of republic that was at once
disarmed and loved, or one that dis
armed and survived? France has
been republic again for genera
ton, but is armed to the teeth, with
every able-bodied young man compel
led to take military training. Swift
zerland with less than a twentieth of
the population of the United States,
and but one.fourth the area of Mis-
souri,, has an army peace strength of
100000, with $4,000 reserves. The
Swiss are now adding to their mill
tary precautions.
Secretary Bryan expects a convul-
sive time in many other nations, for
he says in tho same speech that this
country, illustrating universal broth
erhood, would by its silent example
"shake thrones and dissolve aristac-
racies," giving Eight and inspiration
to those who sit in darkness. If mil
itary preparedness is darkness then
the gloom is thickening throughout
Europe, where ornaments are grow
ing all the while. This country has
favored the gospel of peace as far as
has been prudent. The president who
has just retired from Office was more
Of an advocate of peace movements
than many Of his fellow-citizens
thought practical in this era, but Sec.
rotary Bryan's quotation from one Of
his old campaign speeches goes to
greater lengths, and the country will
watch with much interest the devel-
opmslt ofhhis policy on the issue OF
disarmament.

ORPHANS IN AUSTRALIA.
They Are All Wards Of the State and
Carefully Protected.

NdFCHuuy TIOSCShSSs
There are no orphans in Australia.
That is not because parents never die
there, but because when they do the
state at once steps in to the rescue OF
their little ones. Children who have
been robbed by death Of their natural
protectors are practically adopted by
the government.
Unless some near relative manifests
a desire to assume the responsibility
and can demonstrate his ability to do
so the child is committed to the chill
dren's council, which selects some
home among the farmers of the coun-
try. These foster homes are examined
closely, and often two or three are
tried before one is found in which the
child finds congenial surroundings.
After thirteen the state feels that its
ward should e;,rn more than board and
lodging. At that age, therefore, he is
hired out. usually. however, to the fos-
ter parents who have been previously
taking care of him. Three-fourths Of
his wages are deposited in savings
banks; the remainder is his. When he
becomes of age or if he wishes money
in order to learn a trade or to attend
more advanced school-or, in the
case of a girl. when she wishes to
marry-thc savings are turned over to
the ward.-New York World.
