she says war was necessary.
England lies in the same spirit
and almost the same words. She
points with honor to the violation OF
Belgium's neutrality, but sees no
evil in Japan's violation of prostrate
China's neutrality. She pretends to
dread practical slavery to German

but what liberty had she given Ire

the cruel subjugation OF weak Bel
gium by a mighty Germany, but
forSets the Beers she pillaged. She
lcys much stress to win our love, on
the antagonistic statements con-
corning us made by German writer's
in years gone by, but meantime she
nonchalantly interferes with our

France seeks sympathy because Of
the "barbarous Teuton" trampling
down her fields. But Franco he's been
looking and longing for this war
since Napoleon III was whipped. She
has never forgiven the Germans for
taking Alsace and Lorraine from her
but she wants the world to forget
that she stole those provinces from
Germany years before the Franco
Prussian war that restored them to
Germany.
Russia gives the world to under
stand that she is in the war merely
to keep poor little Servia from be-
ing bullied, but Russia lies. She isin
the war because she thought she saw
a chance to get down to the Medit-

Children as Children.

PRESIDENT Hadley, OF Yale said not
long ago in The Companion, "The
most useful knowledge Is that which
will make us the best citIzeI, g."
Since knowledge is largely expert
ence, rather than mere information,
1t follows that good part of the
knowledge that makes good citizens
must come from actual work for
civic order, cleanliness ard beauty.
What we learn from working on
our own responsibility We never for

to get that kind of education In Is.
Of course the home. The old house

ments have made no longer neces-
sary are inadequately replaced by
work in the school gymnasium, at the
school carpenters bench and in the
school, course In domestic science.
These things are all good, but they
fail to inspire in the child the sense
OF reality and the sense Of proprietor
ship that are necessary for the best
educational results.
To supply that need the Junior
Civic Leagues are making use of the
opportunity oflored by the home plot
or the back yard. They set the boy
at work first in his own garden.
There he learns by experience some
thing about trees and plants and in
sect pests and birds. He finds out
what makes q good path: he per-
ceives that the debris and the stag
nant puddles that spoil the fair face
OF his little domain are breeding
places for fies and mosquitoes. It In
easy then to interest him In the pre-
servation Of trees and plants, of
birds and animals; the extermina-
ton OF dies and mosquitoes; road
making. 1t 10 easy to lead him on
from pride In his garden to pride
In his steets. his neighbrhood, in his
town. Enrolled with other enthusi-
asts he wageo war on everything
that initiates against civic clean
liness. order and beauty. He has mas
tered the primer of good citizenship.
BY the time these boys reach their
last year In the high school. they are
probably learning something about

boys into sort Of junior associa-

guess what effect this carefully su-

HAILED AS AUGURY
OF BETTER TIMES
Wilson's Letter Causes Stir i'm
Wall Street-Some of the Good
Factors

New York, Nov. 1S.-President
Wilson's reassuring statement to the
secretary OF the treasury in connec-
tion with the Inauguration OF the
new banking system is almost the
main topic Of discussion in financial
circles today. Taken in conjunction
with the compltion of the cotton
pool 1t was hailed as an augury of
betterment in other directions. One
more step towards the restoration
OF normal financial conditionh was
recorded during the day, when the
committee of bankers and bond
dealers, which was organized soon
after the outbreak of the war to
supervise dealings in unlisted bonds
and unlisted guaranteed stocks, all
nounced its retirement.
There was another conference be-
tween leading banking interests and
stock exchange authorities relative
to the advisabflity Of an early re-
opening of that institution. But
the result was once more inconclu-
sive.
Industrial conditions offered
greater promise. according to trade
advices. Purchases of pig iron have
inceased matrially. Buying of fn-
ished steel this month was consider
ably in excess OF the preceding
month. Some Of the larger railways
came into the market for new EQUIP
ment
Business for Paris and Berlin
was the smallest in some weeks. All
continental rates were higher. The
Imperial Bank Of Germany again
showed an increase OF gold holdings.
The moro detailed statement Of
the country's exports for October
dismlosed the fact that shipments OF
breadstuffs for that month we're al
most three times as large as in the
same month in 1913.
