WASHINGTON. April 22.-In his
report to the National Council of the
Boy Scouts of America at its Fifth
Annual meeting here, Frank Presbrey
Of New York. a member of the
councils editorial board. described
as especially notable the influence
cf Boys Life, the official monthly
mazazine Of the Scout movement. in
creating friendships between boys in
widely separated parts of the United
states and between American boys
and boys in other countries.
This influence" said Mr.. Pres
brey. "has been exerted through what
is know as The Lonesome Corner, a
regular department of the magazine.
Starting with the names of three or
four boys who had written that they
would like to correspond with other
boys the list Of boys who are ex-
changing letters through the maga-
zine regularly has grown to thou
sands and is steadily increasing.
The importance Of this activity Of
BOYS can scarcely be overestimated.
Scoutsmasters, teachers, ministers
college professors and parents have
declared that, in addition to the per-
sonal pleasure and immediate eduea-
tlonal benefit which boys get from
such exchange Of letters, the forma-
ton Of friendships around the world
Is doing much to bring about a bet
ter International understanding, mu-
tual appreciation and good will, and
cannot but have a good effect upon
the future relations Of the United
states with other nations"

tional and religious journals through

WILL WAR BANKRUPT EUROPE? WATCH OUT
WHEN THEY ISSUE TREASURY NOTES
BY ROGER w. BABSON

BY ROGER w. BABSON
The longest battle front in our civil
was was three miles. Today in the
great European war, the western bat
tie front extends nearly 400 miles,
and the eastern about 700 miles.
One shot in Is minutes was the
very highest speed of firing in our
civil war. Today, in the great Euro
pean war, 700 shots a minute is the
average of the rapid firing guns.
Moreover, the ultimate goal seems
to be to equip every man with such
gun!
England fired more shots during a
single day, in a certain battle last fall,
than she used during the entire Boer
war, while one of her many. guns
weighs more in tons than Nelson's
great flag ship at the Battle Of Ira
fOTgar.
Concerning men involved, esti-
mates vary. The numbers are so stu
pendous that million one way or
the other seems to make no differ
ence. In several battles more men
have been killed than the $4,000 men
under Napoleon in the great battle Of
Waterloo.
Moreover, when one considers that
for every man in the field there must
be another one at home manufaCtur-
ing ammunition, and that none of
these figures include the vast num-
bers directly or indirectly engaged in
naval warfare, the tremendous cost
becomes apparent
Why, this war is costing nearly 100
times as muci, per day as did our civil
war, and has already cost as much as
all the wars of the past century COM
bined.
AS I showed in the last article, the
governments are now borrowing
money by selling government bonds,
just as you would borrow money on
-

OF 1000 supplies. EACH DOlu ISSUE
however, has been sold with greater
difficulty. For instance, the powerful
British empire, in order to sell its last
issue of bonds about which you hear
so much, has been obliged to pay an
equivalent of 515 per cent interest, or
nearly double what they have hereto
fore paid!
At the beginning of the war, it was
possible for these countries to sell
bonds here in the United States and
this gave them new money. Today,
however, wise investors, seeing no
end to the conflict, are refusing to
buy any more of these bonds. Our
financiers know that there is no way
to collect the interest and principal
on the bonds, if the European gov
ernments should decide not to pay
them, and consequently we prefer to
invest our money here at home.
AS soon as a nation is obliged to
sell it's bonds to its own people, this
results simply in changing money
from one pocket to another, but
really producing no new money for
the nation. Wnen a country is ODngT
ed to do as England did last month";
and appeal to the working people to
take their money out of the govern
ment banks and buy bonds with it, it
is nearly at the last extremity in bond
selling. AS the government already
has the use of this money when in
the postal savings banks, at rate Of
only 2 per cent, what little advantage
is it to have the working people pull
this out for the purchase Of bonds
upon which the government is Obig-
ed to pay Az per cent? And yet the (
credit of the English government is
far superior to that of any other goV1
eminent in Europe.
But what will happen when goV4
eminent bonds can be no longer
sold? Will the war end then? No!

What Thin Folks Should
Do to Gain Weight
Physicians Advice for Thin, Unde-
veloped Men and Women

Thousands of people suffer from ex-
cessive thinness, weak nerves and feeble
stomachs who, having tried advertised
fiesh-makers, food -fads, physical culture
stunts and rub-on creams, resign them
selves to lifelong skinniness and think
nothing will make them fat. Yet their
case is not hopeless. A recently discov-
cred regenerative force makes fat grow
after years of thinness, and is also un-
equaled for repairing the waste of sick
ness or faulty digestion and for
strengthening the nerves. This remark
able discovery is called Sargol. Six
strength giving, fat-producing elements
of acknowledged merit have been com
bined in this peerless preparation,
which is endorsed by eminent physicians
and used by prominent people every
where. 1t is absolutely harmless, in
expensive and efficient.
A months systematic use of Sargol
should produce flesh and strength by
correcting faults of digestion and by
supplying highly concentrated fats to
the blood. Increased nourishment is
obtained from the food eaten, and the
additional fats that thin people need
are provided. G. A. Gorgas and other
leading druggists supply Sargol and say
there is large demand for it.
While this new preparation has given
splendid results as a nerve-tonic and vi
talizer, 1t should not be used by nervous
people unless they wish to gain at least
ten pounds of hesh.-Adv.
