THE EFFECT OF THE WAR,

Even the nations at peace are bound t9 profit from the lessons which are sure to develop as the result of the war in Europe. While above all the necessity of peace has been disclosed it is likewise made plain that such cannot be possible so long as the spirit ( of mihtarism prevails. They are bound to clash sooner or later.
 It cannot help being the prayer of the world that at it's conclusion war will be found so abherrent to those engaged as we'll as the onlookers that a new iinpetus for disarmament and international peace will prevail. The calamity is sufficient to bring about such a reaction and a determination that a sensible adjustment of inter- national difficulties must take the place of settling disputes by force. It is in accordance with the demands of civilization and had there been a willingness to be governed by such a spirit when it was suggested last year from Great Britain that a naval hol-
 iday'' be declared, the existing condi- tions would have been avoided.
 Even as was the naval holiday idea given too little serious consider ation 50 too is the necessity of being prepared for an emergency likely to receive more support than ever, un- til there Is proper realization of the value of am impartial basis for adjust ment in accordance with the scales of justice. The spectacle of educated Europe rushing into such a confiagra- ton is enough if they ever give il sober reflection to mean it's end for ever It remains to be seen what the | war will teach.

THEGIRL ON THE CAR.


 "A peach!" said Ellsworth. He said 1t entirely to himself, of course. Discreetly, from behind his paper, he noted her From the shiny tips of her little pumps to the top of her tilted hat she was immaculate, simple and fashionable. Not that one noticed her attire so much after one had seen her face. It was adorable, with the hint of pout on the curving lips. She was one of those young persons who inspire every masculine beholder with an instant desire to go forth and battle or otherwise prove his prowess, within the sight of the fair one. l Ellsworth unconsciously preened | himself by strengthening his coat la pels and smoothing his necktie. Not that he was crude enough to try to attract her attention-it was entirely 1 involuntary. She sat directly oppo- i site him in the car and had burst upon his vision as soon as he had taken his seat. It was some minutes before ElIs- worth observed the man. The fact that he was young and sitting on the same side of the car with the divinity caused Ellsworth to dislike him at once.
 The plain fact that there were at I least three vacant feet of space be- l tween him and the young woman and | the further fact that apparently the young man did not know the remark able young woman was on earth helped a trifie.
 He's got bad face" Ellsworth concluded darkly. ~The fact that the ordinary person would call him good looking only shows how thoughtless people arei An active observer like | myself would see at once that his nos- | trils show tempet-and don't like the
 line of his lips! If his hat were of no doubt his craniaI limitations would | show lack of mentalitytr Ellsworth had never seen a young | person so absolutely oblivious of the earth and the things upon it as was l the girl opposite him. She stared
 straight ahead of her. around, above through him without a sign that she
 knew an entirely handsome, attractive young man was within her range oi vision. Ellsworth sighed and admired her for her self-restraint. 1 Tt shows" he said to himself, ''thai she is the real thing. Only one borr
 to the purple could manage that! Any one could see she is very we'll bred!
 Jehoshaphat! What a complexion l roses!'
 I Ellsworth caught the man opposite the first time he did it. He had turn. ed his head slightly and glanced a, the young woman. Then he glanced again. Her state of oblivion neve. wavered.
 T knew it!" Ellsworth said to him SeH. knew that fellow was no goct the minute I saw himi Now if h.
 thinks he is going to annoy that gir and get away with it, all I've got t,
 say is that he is going to get tn ljolt of his life!"
 It was most evident that the maj
 opposite was now thoroughly awak to the beauty three feet away iron
 him. When he crossed his feet an,
 then uncrossed them. shifting himsel several inches nearer, Ellswortl crumpled his paper into a ball an, gave his undivided attention to tn couple sitting opposite.
 II He felt that the young woman wa : clever enough to realize that in al
 emergency she could rely on him.

enteen miles out of Paris is the town
 of Lagny. with a population of about
 5000, situated on the river Marne. Here is found the early Gothic church
 which was begun but never finished. Beyond this place the river makes a
 detour of ten miles, which vessels avoid by a short canal cut through a tunnel running parallel to the railroad tunnel. Six miles further on is the town of Esbly, on the Grand Morin,, a a picturesque river, which frequently floods the environs of Paris. Twenty eight miles from Paris is Meaux,. with a population of 15,000, which carries on an active trade in grain and Erie cheese. The Cathedral of St. Etienne is a Gothic edifice begun in the 18th century, whose tower is still unfinish- ed. Thirteen miles further up the Marne is Ferte-Sous-Jouar a small town famous for it's millstone quar- ries. It was a divine fortress of the Gauls Eighteen miles further east is Chateau -Thierry. famous for its man ufacture of mathematical and wind instruments. The castle here is said to have been built by Charles Martei. At this point begin the beautiful vineyards of Champagne Eighty eight miles out of Paris is the town of Epernay, the center of the cham pagne trade of France.

that the increase desired should have been granted some months ago upon the conditions prevailing at that time, 1t is impossible to overlook the fact that the need of the roads for such relief has greatly increased since that time.
 That the roads should be given fair treatment must be admitted. That the conditions under which they are oper- atfng do not permit of that even though they have put into action the several recommendations concerning economy is going to rest with the railroads to show to the satisfaction of the commission.

EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS
Schools That Train.

It is becoming more and more clear ly recognized that in the present or eanization of industry the workers must be trained to work and the state must train them. This is a democratic country. Education is one of the most important functions of a democracy.
 Business men who own stores and factories are naturally most directly interested in the quality of the train ing given their future employees.
 The vocational schools that are now springing up into great systems in the large cities represent the most impor- tant phase of popular education. At least 3,00Q,0 900 children of If are leay- ing school for the factory this year. Over 6,000, ,0O0 boys and girls between are i'll trained. Over three-fourths of them have not reached the seventh year of school, and more than one-half of them fail to- reach the sixth year. The purpose of the National Society for the Promotion of Industrial Educa- ton, recently formed, is to pay the sal- aries and travelling expenses of field workers who are assisting cities and states to establish good systems for industrial training. The society pub fishes and distributes information, pro- vides office quarters and pays for the services of a manager and his corps of experts, both at headquarters and in the state branches.
 Now,, this is certainly one of the most encouraging social efforts of re- cent years. Its import Is really tre- tmendous, when one realizes the scope of its endeavor. The trouble with
 what is quaintly but most expressive ly called book learning" Is that it is almost invariably wholly unrelated to the immediate needs of the students life, while the business man Is in 8 perpetual and practical university dur ing his whole active life. He trains himself to solve harder and harder problems, passing constantly from the Simple to the more complex until his | mind gets a. grasp of things and he
 gains a vigor of execution which would be impossible for the man who has only book training"
