At the band concert the Americans cast aside the stress of the game, and for once meet for pure enjoyment.
 There is always a disagreement as to what class of music band should play. Some demand airs reminiscent of old scenes. Others want banging sousa marches. Still others call for the poetry and fire of the classics The wise bandmaster of course tries to please all tastes.
 Music that has the quality of per inanence is more apt to build up a support of real music lovers. If a composition has been handed down from one generation to another, or h+s the qualities that will hand it down, it must have a keener appeal to the human heart than something tossed off by the ballad singers of yesterday to be thrown in the waste basket tomorrow

MONEY CAN'T MEASURE IT

There is no use to talk about the
European war in terms of mere
money and stand aghast at the
stupendous expenditure. The daily
cost is estimated at $4,000, 900
and the sum total at the end will
be almost inconceivable But what
of it? Each nation will solve its
own money problem by issuing pa
per currency to the extent required,
without any reference to the gold
standard, and patriotism and the
necessities of the case will give it
the needed purchasing power. We
have become such world of dollar
worshippers that we measure all
human calamities in terms of
money, whereas the very least i'm
portant feature of this terribly cata-
clysm in Europe is it's cost in cash
or what goes for cash. That loss
may be quickly repaired, for war
has never yet seriously hurt a ma
tion worth surviving in that way
But the awful loss OF life and de-
struction of homes; the immeasur-
able suffering, physical and moral,
the unchecked dominance of evil
passions raging ]ike a deadly epi-
demic through all the land, and the
hideous brutalizing of millions of
human hearts, including even the
very children, venomous with hate
to be handed down from father to
son through many generations to
breed more wars in future-thcse
are the fearful rayages of the con-
flict which money can never repair,
and the least of Europe's troubles
today is that daily cost of the war
measured in terms of cash

heart-breaking he ever saw. A

Concerning that celebrated shor,
stretch of sand-oil road at Eustis
whose merits and demerits all the
good roads experts in the State are
now discussing, Bob Holly of the
Sanford Herald says that Editor
Clarence Woods of the Eustis Lake
Region now takes it to his room
and wraps the bed clothes around it
to keep the dew off and twice a
week has it shaved by the barber
and over Sunday lays it away in
moth balls" This would indicate
that the road in question was not
even yet acclimated and Editor
Woods, as the champion of the sand
oil road theory, should stand sturd-
lily forth in defense and make a

Kitchener is the greatest soldier
Great Britain has p reduced since
the Duke of Wellington. He is a
born leader and commander, cool,
clear-headed, with marked capacity
