himself when on the highway.

War.

What is it makes the millions mourn,
When daylight fades, and early dawn,
With hearts that are full OF hope
forlorn?
IT'S war, cruel war.
What Is IL makes the country groan,
With taxes great and heavy born.
The dove of peace in sorrow moan?
IT'S war, cruel war.
What is 1t dyes the river red;
Why people destitute OF bread;
And men to deadly conflict lead?
IT'S war, cruel war.
What Is It devastates the land;
Why ruined homes on every hand,
Instead Of homes that were so grand?
IT'S war, cruel war.
What Is 1t makes the mothers wall
With wailing deep without avail.
AND watch Tor sons on every SAL!
IT'S war, cruel war.
What Is 1t makes true lovers sigh,
And breathe a prayer to God on high,
That he would bring their loved ones
nigh?
IT'S war, cruel war.
What makes the mother toll alone
To care for little ones their own,
And long for those who never come?
IT'S war, cruel war.
What is ii makes old Satan shout
With cruel mirth, and run about,
To drive from hearts all loving out?
IT'S war, cruel war.
What Is 1t makes our Savior weep,
And tears from eyes that cannot sleep
To flow as rushing torrents sweep
IT'S war, cruel war.
What is It makes the Christians pray,
That men, their fellows, cease to STAY,
And love each other day by day?
IT'S war, cruel war.
Lord God We pray to haste the time,
When lives of men shall be rhyme,
And In each heart be the heavenly
chime:
Peace on earth good will toward
men,"

NO PEACE YET

Though the world longs for peace
and while the people of all the coun-
tries are weary and sick of war,
those who are best informed as to
European conditions are agreed that
there is no present possibility of end
ing the struggle. There has not been
the slightest intimation from any of
the entente powers OF willingness
to make peace except on their own
terms. President Wilson undoubted-
ly realizes that any premature move
on his part would only have the eff
feet of impairing his usefulness by
destroying his influence. We see
once more that 1t is much easier to
begin a war than to end 1t, and
that Is a truth which the American
people might ponder with profit In
dianapolis News.

WAR WITH MEXICO

People who talk light heartedly of
armed intervention in Mexico picture
an American army marching in tri-
umph from Vera Cruz and ending the
campaign at one stroke. They ig'
more the character of the country and
the character of the people to be
dealt with. To conquer Mexico and
restore 1t to order after occupation
by the United States would mean that
it must be garrisoned from end to
end and policed and patrolled at ev-
cry point. This country would have
to face a guerilla war over an i'm
mense territory for years to come in
which at the hands of the Mexican
bandits, noncombatant and civilians
would have no rights and be treated
with no more mercy than these ban
dts are showing today in their raids
along the Rio Grande-New York
World.

Regulation Of Water
Powers in Europe

One of the most important prob
lens in the political economy of a
nation is the control of water power
and the fact that Congress recognizes
its importance Is shown by the time
devoted to the subject by the United
States House of Representatives dur
ing the later part of 1914. 1t Is al
ways interesting and usually helpful,
in considering the conditions involv.
ed in this problem, to find how other
countries have dealt with somewhat
similar conditions, so that Water Sup
ply Paper 23S-The Public Utility Of
Water Powers and their Government
al Regulation-issued by the United
States Geological Survey in 1910, con-
tains much valuable data. This re-
port, prepared by Rene Tavernier,
chief engineer of the Department of
Public Works of France, in conjunc-
ton with the United States Geologi
cal Survey, treats of the manner in
which France, Switzerland and Italy
have dealt with the problem of utiliz-
ing more satisfactorily the water
powers afforded by the streams in
those countries. The French regu.
lations take cognizance of two kinds
OF streams-first, rivers that are nav
igable neither for vessels nor RATS,
over which the French minister Of
agriculture exercises certain police
powers and in which the riparian land
owners possess certain rights; and
second, streams that are navigable by
vessels or RATS, which lie within the
public domain and which are admin.
istered by the minister Of public
works. In Switzerland control OF
water courses that are navigable for
neither ships nor RATS is retained by
the cantons and communes; in Italy
the waters are public property, con
cessions for development being is
sued by the government.
The laws in force in France, Switz
erland, and Italy are given in the re
port, together with a brief discussion
OF the results of their operation al
well as their defects and the prob
ability of future changes in the laws

PLAIN AND FANCY
PLOTTING

1t may be humiliating to some Am.
orleans to make the admission but
We simply must face the fact that
this is poor country for plotting. 1t
is all right as home for poor and
oppressed of other nations; 1t is first
class as a producer of crops and
manufactured articles; 1t can't be
equaled as an exponent OF real poll
tical liberty and upholder OF the dig
nifty of citizenship.
But as a field for the operation Of
even the most expert plotters 1t is
hardly worth considering. The soon
er the professors of plain and fancy
plotting learn that they will have
their trouble for their plains, the
sooner will they move to some more
congenial atmosphere where this ad-
mittedly great European industry is
held in high regard Chicago Her

PUBLIC HEALTH WORK

In a powerful address delivered be-
fore the recent American public
Health Association Convention at
Rochester, N. ". their president. DIR.
w T. Sedgwick, arraigned the Unit
ed States for dirty streets, unclean
milk supplies infant mortality. and
prevalence OF typhoid fever. One OF
DR.. Sedgwicks charges was that the
health boards are too often loaded
up with political refugees, political
doctors and incompetent laymen.
There Ia a tendency to look at
public boards of health, in charge Of
these problems, as mere old maidish
pursuers of imaginary microbes. II
the average citizen can dodge a
health regulation he feels he is so
much to the good.
Many towns persistently ignore
plain menaces to health for many
years. In one place known to the
writer, there has been for many
years a dam flowing up a small
stream for several miles, in a way
70 create large areas of stagnant wa
ter near village. This water was
a mosquito breeder and injured the
attractiveness of the town. It must
have been a disease carrier, provoca'
tive OF malarial tubercular and other
troubles.
Yet because the letting OF OF this
water would have caused some slight
inconvenience TO an industry employ
ing a very few men, It was neve'
possible to drain these swamps ant
meadows. A board OF health Is no
likely to amount to much unless on
or more competent physicians are In
cluded on It. Doctors are busy men
but have as much public spirit a
any one. They should not be eske,
TO perform this service for love only
1t Is al effort that should enlist m
energies OF the best citizens OF tn
place. II leading men would all TAX

would not be onerous on any on

would become much more widely di

gencies so wonderfully:

in these latter years the world |
has picked up a fashion of estimating |
at very low value the contributions
which women have made in the past !
to its activities and progress.
"One of the by products of this IA
shion is the surprise which greets re-
ports of women doing we'll things
which ordinarily have been done by
men. Let woman establish a shop,
and the news travels across the con-
tinent; as II one of the greatest shops
on earth had not been built up and
managed by woman! Let a woman
win a lawsuit, and there is wonder,
as IL there had never been a Portia!
Ever since the war began there has
been almost world wide chorus of
amazement over the exhibits of wo-
men in the countries involved. 1t
began back in August OF 1914, when
travellers suddenly discovered the
subways, the tramways and the taxi
OF Paris to be run by women.
The change was made In a night,
without fuss or feathers or exclama-
ton, but the observers who had lived
in the belief OF the general unfitness
| OF women stared in astonishment-a
revolution! It's always revolution,
you know. when things occur of which
you have never happened to hear!
There was no revolution about the APP
pearance of the women in Paris

er unusual things in Germany; and
doing many things so well that their
employers are talking Of keeping them
after the war--if they can.
On taking up these tasks they were
doing what they had been doing all
their lives-turning their hands to
the next thing; meeting emergen-
cies; filling sudden gaps; stepping in.
to vacant places. The ordinary daily
life Of women fits, as no other school
on earth, for rising to occasions. To
bear children and to direct them into
cheerful, self controlled manhood and
womanhood, and so to hold one man
that he reverts neither into savagery
nor sloth-one state or the other be.
ing his natural conditions the
greatest school on earth. It develops
more unexpected situations and turns
up more emergencies In a week than

MAIL ORDERS NOT
ECONOMICAL
~ ~

The person who buys from distant
mail order houses, rather tnon pat
ronize stores near home overlooks
certain items of expense that he has
10 pay for in buying from catalogs.
Usually an extra transportation
charge has to be paid in buying OF
the mail order house. IL you buy
OF your home dealer, who buys OF
the manufacturer, there is but one
freight charge to pay, from the fac
tory to the store.
But II you buy of the mail order
house. the goods must be transported
to the mail order ware rooms, and
then shipped again from the mail
order house to you. That makes al
so two estra charges for storage to
be paid and often for packing and
unpacking.
Furthermore, sending individual ar
ticles long distance is the most
costly way of shipping them. When
the home dealer buys them, he Or
ders a lot to come in one shipment
which makes the transportation
charges for each article very small
item. II you pay to have 1t sent
individually either by express or
parcel post from a distant place,
much more must be paid.
II the mail order price seems cheap
II is usually because second grade
article is being sold 1t looks very
handsome in the catalog cut, which
reveals no defects. But you would
not buy 1t in a store.
II you would give the home mer-
chant a chance, he would tell you
that he could sell the same article
for. as low price probably lower.
But he would not want to do II, be-
cause It would not give satisfaction
and the sale Of second class goods
would nurt his business reputation.
Even II sFticies are sent by post
age or express paid. the consumer
pays these charges indirectly by get
ting the poorer quality. II is case

PROBLEM

All who have studied the matter
agree that with the signing OF the
peace treaty both Germany and Eng
land our two great trade competitors
will engage in a separate war on the
United States in an effort not only
to recapture the trade lost during the
struggle, but to break down the in
dustrial supremacy of this country.
A prominent western business man
declared that already foreign manu-
facturers are planning a get together
or syndicating movement against Am
erica following the cessation of hos
tilities in Europe
If this country is still subjected
to the baneful influences of Demo.
cratic tariff law when peace Is de.
there can be but one outcome
the industrial bankruptcy of the ma.
ton. Already Democratic opportun.
lists are seemingly giving ear to the
advice of business men, and dropping
hints of restoration of the duty on
sugar, protective duty on dyestuffs,
and various other tariff palliatives.
That this is contrary to Democratic
doctrine, every man knows, as he al
80 knows that 1t is intended for cam
paign consumption next year. The
of industrial America will
be restored only when the Repubi-
can party, the party of practical COM
mon sense and sound business ideals
Is restored to power.
