made by either England or ourselves upon
the battle fleet. Isn't Germany picking
a rod for somebody? II not. doesn't she
think this fighting force necessary TO pro-
tect her commercial expansion over sea?
Germany is a formidable rival Of ours
for the trade OF the world How can We
safeguard our merchants and their goods
without suitable show of armed
strength?
But is Japan's naval expansion any
more commensurate with her domestic
needs than Germany's? Certainly not
The upbullding of the Mikado's battle
fleet is but practical evidence OF policy
which the people of the island kingdom
have been fostering for some years. The
battle cry OF the Orientals is Asia for the
Asiatics." and this incidentally involves
an ambition TO rule the Pacific. Along
with her Dreadnoughts Japan IS building
squadron of very formidable battle
cruisers. We have no ships OF this sort
in our service. and for swift and powerful
attack they are singularly fitted. These
are the craft upon which Japan would
naturally depend in making any sudden
move upon us by establishing advance
bases In Alaska or the Philippines or in
taking Hawaii by storm. Yet. the I'M
perisl Japanese Diet has no intention Of
hating at this provision; IT is providing
amply also for a magnificent increase in
the most formidable Of Dreadnoughts.
More than once we have heard II secret
agreements between Russia and japan,
and who dares to say that nothing OF the
kind exists? Therefore. the Cars naval
expenditures bring us face To face with
potentially menacins situation.

the Tiger class cost more than the most
advanced Dreadnoughts. and yet Mr..
Churchill did not offer 10 save his people
from further financial burden in this di-
rection.
The unrest in Germany has been stead
fly growing year by year because of in
creased taxes imposed to maintain and
TO upbuild both the army and the navy.
and il is certain that the citizenry would
welcome heartily any lesseninc OF the
financial drains upon them. Perhaps Mr..
Churchill hoped that he had hit upon
the psychological moment when he in
vted the Fatherlands participation in
naval vacation. Alas the peace-lcy-
ing Kaiser-we use his own denomina-

that accompanies this article. Russia has
been moving up in the scale al a striking
rate ever since 1919, and her last appro-
more than our own. True Japan's was
not then quite half as much as ours. but
just imagine what would happen If those
two powers chose 10 work in unison.
Our relations with Russia are far from
cordial. and our commerce with the Mus
covites has suffered materially since we
terminated our old treaty with Russia.
Russia wants a great big slice OF China,
Japan no doubt bankers for the Philip
pines; what is 10 prevent an agreement
between these two powers which would
mean a loss to us2 Both our naval and
our military experts admit reluctantly
the vulnerability OF our island possessions
in the Orient. but the picture OF possible
calamity has a wider field OF vision
There are Alaska and the Hawaiian ISL
ands likewise in peril,
But how about Panama? Can We defend
the canal? Remember We must protect
both coasts OF the United States. and
equally is IL incumbent upon us TO guard
the Philippines and Hawaii Either first
or last. the bulk OF this burden must nee
esssariy fall upon our feet
True, IL our enemy wait until the Pan
anna Canal be finished. the interocean
waterway will give our navy certain
strategic advantage because our battle
squadrons could then be shifted quickly
from coast TO coast. Theoretically, this
doubles the effectiveness OF our fleet in
the immediate protection OF our shores.
but don't forget that our coast line in
effect would then reach many hundreds OF
miles further south, because of the task
that would be Imposed in keeping watch

and ward over the entrances to the canal.
This would call for an amount OF we'll
nigh ceaseless activity upon the part OF
our fighting ships which would be eX-
tremely exhausting, and where are we TO
draw our reserves from? An overworked
personnel is not a desirable asset for the
hour OF battle.
Mr.. Daniels spoke of the naval dissipa-
ton. so We might describe it, OF nations
that hitherto have not burdened their
people with the expense of large battle
ships. This is an element in the question
OF balance of power which has an
important bearing upon this whole
problem. and il very much concerns
us in two ways. First our own
yards have next 10 nothing OF this
work TO do, and these Dreadnoughts
building are far more accessible TO our
possible enemies in time OF need than
TO ourselves. With war In progress or
war threatening. England has the right
10 commander for the royal service any
ships building within the British Isles.
At one stroke, England could thus add
10 her fleet from a source that is pre-
cmlnently superior 10 that OF any other
nation. She wouldn't have TO buy naval
or nautical junk. such as We did during
. our war with Spain How do We know
that IT wouldn't be possible for her and
for other nations concerned 10 stimulate
artificially the construction OF battleships

the lesser powers? Brazil. lacking funds.

 Temporarily

Livingston. October 2.-(Special.) .)--In spite of the loss of the main dormitory by fire Tuesday night, school duties were resumed at the state normal school Thursday morning. One hundred girls are quartered in Joriss hall and the balance of them will be taken care of by the people of Livingston until the dormitory is rebuilt
 w. $. Nichols, treasurer of the school, says, Superintendent Feagin has ad vised me that committee selected from the board of trustees will arrive in Livingston early next week and will make plans for rebuilding. I do not anticipate having the least trou ble with the insurance adjusters and expect to have all the insurance money which amounts to $47,500. within a month."
 Professor Brock, principal, is very optimistic. He says: 1T have never seen a crowd of girls face disaster with such fortitude. Forty or fifty of the girls had to go home to rep1enish their wardrobes, but I am confident that the school will not lose more than 20 or 25 students on account of the fire'

 life.
 All of these business Ieads-and innu- merable more, equally applicable to great variety of businesses-are to be found in your newspaper every day 1t is issued What do they suggest to you?
 First. they should prompt you to a greater respect for your newspaper. Any medium that can furnish you with as great a quantity and quality of up-to-the- minnie ipforfpa tinp do stimulus as your newspaper offers hardly deserves banishment to the waste heap as soon as the first few lines of big type have been scanned and the days jokes duly appreciated. Read itl Every day. Really read it.
 Second. use your newspaper in your business. It can stretch the 1 or or cents you paid for it into many good dol lars of actual profit, if treated systemati- cally. Perhaps you never before have re- garded your newspaper in exactly this light, but just try this experiment to prove it out:
 Take your accustomed newspaper to- morrow morning. Don't skip thing in it. Read the parts you usually do not read Check up the news items that could be employed in the extension of your selling efforts. Note them, and act on them wherever possible. Use your imagination it's mighty fine stimulus when practi- cally applied. Carry this experiment on for a week. The week will develop into better one than last. You will have found new force in helping you increase sales And 1t is good safe bet that you will keep up the profitable acquaintanceship.
 For remember that the success of every business is based on what is going on around 1.-the news. The newspapers are the first to get this news. They pay big fat prices to get it when it is news. They give it to you first hand, if you will but accept it. No one gets 1t before you do Learn to use it in your business. Learn to read your newspaper. Really read it.

WORLD SERIES GAMES TO BE
 PLAYED IN AMERICAN PARKS

Lannin, but it was undoubtedly a mat ter of satisfaction to Boston pitchers that the bombarding Athletic batsmen were not thus to be assisted. Home runs in the far reaches of Fenway park are rarities, and under the conditions prevailing in a world series are improb- able.
 The same arrangements have been made at Fenway park for this years games as prevailed two years ago. Bleachers have been erected in left field, along the embankment known to American league admirers of Lewis, their left fielder. as 'Duffy's Cliff A fence has been stretched along the entire outfield, about 10 yards in front of the center field bleachers. Addi- tional boxes have been constructed in front of the horseshoe lineup of the grandstand front. Seats will thus be provided for 32.000 spectators and there will be standing room for from 20OO to 5000 additional, the number limited by rules against encroachment. on a certain area of playing space, and against standing room in the grand stand.
 It is practically certain that the games in Boston will produce a new local record for world series crowds. The present mark is 34,6Ss which. was the paid attendance at the fifth game of the series of two years ago. The restrictions as to standing room and against eneroachment on the playing field and the impossibility of adding greatly to the seating arrangements alone will prevent. it is believed, the accommodation of a crowd greater than the 2S1 which saw the first of the games in tho New York Philadelphia series in 1911 at tho Polo grounds.
 That greater crowds are within the possibilities of the baseball enthusiasm in Boston. however. was amply shown on Labor day, when T4,162 paid adms- sions to two games in which the Giants opposed the Braves. The after noon game alone drew Al, 900 persons.
