it was hardly worth while to cable
news of the defeat of 500 Mongols
under Russian officers by force of
Chinese who lost 45 men, What are
45 men to China? In the Tai Ping

the loss of life is given by good au-
thorities as from 10000 900 to 5O,-
100000 and China is todar as densely
populated as ever. Nothing is so
cheap in the Far East as human life
While France anxiously watches the
birth rate, China could sacrifice as
many people as the whole French
population and be all the stronger
and more prosperous for it. She
could spare plenty of men for the re-
conquest of another Mongolia, but
money is another matter, and a cam
paign at the far side of the Cobb des-
ert is both difficult and expensive.
The Mongols, backed by Russia, en-
joys tremendous advantage.

ger the billboard tax is the better But
one fails to understand how it can be
based on any higher valuation than
the physical value of the boards. and
that must be very low. If the poten-
tial advertising worth is taken into
consideration the assessors will be
confronted by new and difficult
problem. There are plenty of Ameri-
cans who decline to buy any article
which is advertised on a billboard. so
that from one standpoint it may be
claimed that the real value of the
boards is actually decreased by the
advertising matter which is spilled
over them. Any tax, however small.
may have some deterrent effect. At
any rate the scheme is worth trying.

would come from the fact that since
they are paid salaries during the
summer months it is up to the teach
ers to earn their salaries. Not by
teaching but by studying and learn
ing how to teach with more ability
and effectiveness. A teacher does
not need three months Of vacation.

two months of the summer should be

This shipment is the largest ever
made of purely commercial power
