the great majority of ''delinquent"
boys need in the Strengthening out Of
tummy tangles and other physical dis
orders that have tendency to start
them on the wrong moral slant.
"Acting upon the premise that the
bad boy is generally sick boy" Mr..
Hilles said, I'VE determined some time
ago to maintain thorough physical
study of the youngsters sent to us. We
found our boys to be sick. Sixty-fve
per cent Of them were anemic-the re-
suit of poor food and irregular habits
of living. To this half starved condi-
ton could be attributed the hayward
ness and viciousness of the boys.
eve found that more than 90 per
cent OF the boys-and remember they
are all under fifteen years of age
came to US with bad teeth. For years
these boys have been unable to chew
their food properly. They have acquired
the habit Of boiling everything they
put into their mouths. The natural
consequence has been multiplication
Of stomach and intestinal disorders.
The boys were dragged down in a
physical manner and really through no
fault of their own became physical de-
generates and moral delinquents."
Mr.. Hilles said the first investigation
dealt with 634 boys, of whom tifty-two,
a little more than per cent were free
from some kind of physical abnormal
ity. The examinations proved that
most of the troubles from which the
boys suffered came from the teeth.
Immediately upon admission to the
Children's Village" he continued, 1.-The
boy is sent to, the dentist, who makes
searching examination of his teeth. All
possible repairs are made, hopelessly
decayed teeth are extracted, those less
seriously diseased are filed and crown
ed. Finally there is thorough clean
ing Of the teeth Then the boy is sent
tc his room with a toothbrush and with
paste. He experiences so much relief
and experiences it so quickly that al
ways the boy is glad to give to his
teeth the necessary attention.
Regularly every six months each
boy in the village visits the dentist
Never, again as long as he is with us is
he permitted to suffer because his
teeth lack attention.
by the time the boy has completed
his two years in the Children's Village
that is the average length of his stay
he has approached the average for
his years in size and in weight. Every
spring the village sends a squad of
boys into the west, where amid new
surroundings and forgetting the stigma
Of the past they begin a useful life in

THE PROBLEM OF APARTMENTS.

In his recent address to the stu dents of Columbia at the opening of the academic year President Butler
 made two suggestions that may well
 be, and are likely to be, considered in fixing the policy of the future. He
 says:
 Since war is an affair of govern ments and of armies, one result of the present war should be to make the manufacture and sale of munitions of war a government monopoly here. after. This is a case where invasion
 of the field of liberty by government
 would do good, not harm. Then, too,
 the export of munitions of war from
 one country to another should be ab- solutely forbidden. When that hap pens, the taxpayer will be able to
 see just how his money is spent, and to check the expenditure, and the pow erful war trader with his lines of influence in every parliament house and in every chancellery will De eilm-
 mated"
 The private manufacture of muni- tions springs from the view that gen. eral armament is unavoidable. It pro-
 duces, necessarily, the strongest pos sible motive for the extension of the business and of the conditions favor able to the business. The Krupps
 were notoriously active in booming war. And it is a stinging commen-
 tary on the cosmopolitan greed of armament makers that some English
 made guns are staying Englishmen engaged in fighting for the defense of their country.-Ex.

MARSHAL OF FRANCE.

The war of 1914 will revive the ti- tie of Marshal in the French army,
 and presumably Gen. Joffre will be the first officer to bear it. In Ma poleonic days and later, at the time of the Franco-Prussian war, France had many marshals. That distinction had then been the highest in France since the reign of Philip Augustus, when there was only one marshal. Francis I. created two and Henry III. required three, while Louis XIV, always renowned for extravaganza, had twenty general officers distin- cuished by the high rank. Republi- can France had got along very well without military titles higher than general since Marshal MacMahon's era.
 In the announcement of the revival of the ancient rank the most inter- Testing fact for Americans is the statement that the wages attached
 to it amount to $6,O00 yearly. In this country brigadier general receives that sum, and we are apt to consid- CT him not too well paid, but French majo general gets only $3,780 year. Small as the pay is, however, the dignity that goes with the rank of marshal is great. Yet the office, like many others which grew out of the
 service of monarchs, was of the
 humblest origin. The kings mares
 chal at first was merely the keeper
 of his horses, subordinate to the con- stable, who, as the origin of the
 name suggests, was Count of the Sta
 ble (comes stabuli.)
 The derivation of the word mar
 shal is difficult to trace. The Ency-
 clopedia Britannica infers that it
 came from old German, marah, a
 horse, and scale, a keeper, but that
 does not matter. There have been,
 since the Middle Ages, marshals Of
 high rank in the army, the law, and
 the heraldic body. The title of Earl Marshal in England was conferred seven centuries ago upon ancestors of the present Duke of Norfolk. who was Edward VII.'s Earl Marshal and is George V.'s. The British field mar shals were derived from the French through the Germans. Probably the
