Soldier Poet Wins Daintlcs,

Sergt Max Schwertfeger attached
to one Of the regiments in Flanders,
says the Frankfort correspondence of
the Associated Press, offers remark
able evidence of the fact that the
power of poetry is not on the wane.
When, recently, he broke into verse in
an appeal for dainties to vary the mo-
notony of military fare, the poem.
which was published in local paper.
prompted such a number of contribu-
tons of packages and boxes of delica-
lessen that Sergeant Schwertfeger
was fairly swamped with them. By
the time of the kaiser's birthday, jan
uary 26. he had received 1,O27 bundles.
containing so many varied eatables
that he was able to share them with
about a thousand members of his bat
TALON.
When, however, the stream showed
no signs Of stopping he was obliged to
appeal once again, this time asking
that the dainties be sent to other SOL
diers ON other battle fronts.

The Effect of War.

Of course warfare diminishes the
population by the sum of the killed.
and to that extent decreases the de-
mand for food. Nevertheless, the sup
ply of food diminishes rapidly. That
is brought about, says the Malthous-
ian, through the killing of relative
iy large proportion Of the producers.
the putting of efficient laborers at un-
productive work, the destroying of the
machinery of production, and the
checking of agriculture. Thus war
Immediately increases the pressure Of
population on the means of subsist-
ence, and the pressure cannot be en-
tirely removed until the normal num-
Der of laborers is again reached. In
other words, war, like emigration,
leaves in the country an excess OF
women and children and other non
producers, and so, although reducing
the actual number of the people, has
all the ill effect of overpopulation.
