Some Einures

AS between France and Germany
apart from the latter's superior war
footing, the total of the fully trained
reserves In the Fatherland would be
the most potent factor in prolonged
struggle and also the justification for
q vigorous initiative despite early
heavy losses. Both Germany and
France nave IN the last two years in
creased the period of service from
two to three years. In France this
frightening Of the term with the col
ors aroused great deal of opposition,
not to say discomfort
Immediately back Of these soldiers
are the first reserves, men Who but
recently have finished their full tours
of active service and Of course are
familiar with the latest practices. Now
lock at the foregoing figures. Ger
many's peace footing is only 29,895
men stronger than that OF France, but
upon the first call TO arms this moder-
ate superiority Immediately jumps to
the greater figure Of 144 ,203, giving the
kaiser an advantage of nearly FL per
cent But this is only the beginning
of the difference.
Germany's total reserve of fully
trained reserves-men trained with
peculiar thoroughness-is today quite
100000, while the admittedly less ex-
actingly drilled reserves Of France
number but 3.250,o00 rank and file.
Here, as can plainly De seen, the Fa-
therland leads by 1.750. 000--two and a

while still having in reserve as many

REAL BATTLE CAPABILITIES
OF The ARMIES OF EUROPE

DO you know that the contending
armies in Europe today are battling
upon their peace time footings?p asked
colonel on the general staff of the
United States army And don't for
get that the nation that gets its fight
ing force up to its full war strength
first will gain a material advantage in
the present turmoil"
This means that any hasty deduc-
tions made upon the basis of fights
won and lost up to date may soon
prove absolutely misleading.
The question then arises: Which of
the struggling armies can reach its
war strength soonest, and with that
attained, what are its chances for
maintaining that standing in the CRU
cling days to come? The answer is
matter of administrative efficiency
first, and then follows naturally the
relative merits of the reserve material
upon which the nation can draw as
battle after battle and disease thin
the ranks of those in the field. At
present the Germans are virtually
fighting alone four other nations, but
their initial setbacks are not properly
true index of what is to come in the
near future.

HUMANIzE THE LAW,
WILSON ADVISES BAR
Time to Consider Justice For
the Ordinary Man.

Washington, Oct. 21.--With an ad-
dress of welcome by President Will
son, with former President Taft In
the chair and the entire supreme
court sitting as guests of honor, the
American Bar association began its
annual session here.
In his Introduction of President VIII
son. Mr.. Taft pledged the associations
earnest cooperation and its deepest
personal confidence in the presidents
ability and purpose to guide the ship
Of state safely through the European
crisis. Mr.. Taft declared the Ameri-
can people were back of the president
In bis handling OF the international
situation and that he had the conf
dence of the nation.
President Wilson's response was
that his strength rested in the conf
dence of the people. He pleaded for
the Illuminating OF the law" In this
time Of international crisis, not only
as respect to international law, but as
to municiual law His reference to
himself as lawyer, who had reform
ed, brought forth tumultuous ap-
plause.
He said the world was now stirred
to its Depths" but that the best course
for nation to pursue was the disin-
terested part. He added that the I'M
settled world conditions made a good
time for freeing the law from the dry
consideration of cold precedents and
injecting into it more of the viewpoint
Of justice for the ordinary man.

Social CeDters.

The crying need of rural Maryland
is social centers where our young
people can be entertained. amused
and instructed under the direction or
cultured, clean and competent lea
dership, where aesthetic surroundings
stir the love for the beautiful; where
art changes the atmosphere with in
SEPARATION and power, and innocent
amusements instruct and brighten
their lives.
To hold our young people on the
farm we must make farm life more
attractive, as well as the business of
farming more remunerative. The
school house should be the social
unit, properly equipped for nourish
ing and building character, so that
the lives of our people can properly
function around it and become sup
piled with the necessary elements of
human thought and activity.

OVER 5000 MORE AUTOS.
Increase of :}3 I-3 Per Cent. In IL
censes Issued This Year.

State Automobile Commissioner
Henry A. Roe stated yesterday lhat
+bere has been a remarkable increase
in the number of licenses issued tins
wear for automobiles and in the
receipts of his office. This indicates
that regardless of the war and talk
of hard times, the people OF the State
are finding money in increasing
numbers to buy machines.
In the present calendar year over
1900 licenses have been lssued,coV-
ering all classes of motor vehicles IN
the same period of last year the num-
her of licenses issued was l4,3Z4,
showing a gain this year OF over D.
600 in the licenses issued, or more
than SO Is per cent. Some idea OF
the way cars are being bought may
no had from the statement that one
agency alone for a popular, loW-prlc-
ed car, is selling them at the rate
of about Il day.
The percentage of increase in the
receipts of Mr.. Roes office is great
er than that for licenses. In the
present calendar year, the receipts
have been over S250,000, which is
so per cent. more than for the same
period last year. In the present
fiscal year, which began April /, the
receipts have been S126,153.S1, as
against $84, in the same per-
iod last year. This is a gain OF al
most exactly so per cent.
