that the idea Of fighting with Germany was

Forming the Study Habit

T. Set aside a definite time for study. ana
keep your books and papers always In one
place. In this way there will be no irritating
obstacles to delay the work or excuse an
omission.
5. Never allow an exception to your rule
Let your friends know that your study hour
is sacred. To make this easier set apart
another time for outside engagements and
pleasures. When you have made such an
arrangement stick to It as If the destiny of
an empire depended upon your hdelty
s. II you study at night allow a few min
utes before going to work the next morning
for review. A quarter OF an hour win do,
and the subject will thus get firmly ixed IN
your mind.
T. Whatever you learn from your books test
out in practice at the hrst opportunity,
g. Establish the habit OF study BY being
inhexibly diigent for a month Work over
your books win be more tedious the first
week than the second, and the second more

To the End of the Came

THE war is reaching the stage when
J. economic laws come into play. The enor-
nous losses are beginning to be felt. Pro-
digious loans cannot obscure the facts No
dispatches from the interior are necessary
to prove that the nationals, as distinct from
the nations, are becoming restive. The bur
den is becoming too oppressive.
On sea, the Allies have succeeded in sweep
ing aside the German menace The Kaiser
has virtually no naval force left except that
bottled up in his own ports On land, the
campaigns are beginning to produce some
thing definite 1t is evident, for instance,
that the Russians are inferior to their oppo4
nents and are holding their ground, so far
as they are doing so, only by weight Of num-
bers The Cars chief service to the Allies
is in keeping so large a force of Germans
away from the war in the West. In France,
following General Joffres magnificent de-
fense along the Marine and the obvious with
drawal OF important German units to the
East, the Allies are in a strong position, Wig
liant and aggressive.
But a standstill means to both sides ulti-
mate bankruptcy. There is a rebound from
madness as from everything else, and hui
manity in Europe has not become so hysterl-
cal that It viii not count the cost. Rumors
OF peace negotiations, or a feeling g-out proc
ess. are significant in the circumstances. An
appreciation OF the utter waste and folly of
the situation is becoming apparent, The war
will not last three years. Another summer
will see the end OF It. The gambler viii play
so long as he can get chips When he can't,
he has to quit. Europe is rushing to the end
