60, in the World Outlook
When the war in Europe shall have
ended In victory for one eombatunt or
the other, the first great question
which peace will bring Is that Of a
food supply for nations pauperized by
battles. There will be an immediate
necessity for virgin land from which
huge crops may be taken at small
cost and with II will come the need
for new sources Of wealth of every
sort
There can he no doubt but that Eu-
rope knows where these are to be
found unquestionahly one of the
eauses of the present war was the
need of richer fields for development.
France and England, particularly
France, had found them. France had
looked across the Mediterranean ana
had found, AT the very doorway of
Europe, the making Of a great North
African empire. England had looked
ana found Egypt. italy had looked,
and had regained Trlpoi for the Ro-
man state. An area half as large as
the United States. teeming with un-
developed rosoureesi II Is no wonder
that for years Germany hammered
upon diplomatic tables with the
mailed fist in an attempt to secure her
share of this wealth.
A country half as large as the Unit
ed States, within a few hours sail
from European ports, for the most
part untouched By the edge OF steel
pillow. yet with untold millions of ag-
ricnltural wealth awaiting the coming
Of the European farmer; it's face nn-
SCARED by derrieks marking the busy
hand Of the mining englneer-al-
though beneath fertile virgin soil lie
more millions In metal than the war
in Europe will cost.
Peace eventually would have result
ed In the development Of North Afri-
ca but this war will equal a century
of peace In that respect Bandaged
Europe, turning its empty pockets in
side out, Will cross the Mediterranean
and the North African empire will
cease to be a dream and viii become
reality
Il is interesting, but almost useless,
to speculate as TO whose empire it will
be. wan our children refer 60 1t as

case Of German victory, there may re-

nightmare Of men in the fighting line'
They dream that they are wander

Another common night terror Is
the dream of sudden oall TO arms

London, Jan. 26.-The number of
English soldiers and officers who
have suffered nervous breakdown
more or less approaching insanity as
result OF the strain of war, has
shown such increase that some of the
leading medical journals are pleading
for special consideration and treat
ment for this class.
Some cases says the Lancet, are
certainly hopeless. but there are 9th
ers-and happily these are in prepon-
deratng numbers--where there are
good grounds for believing that they
may again become useful citizens

yous system are more marked in the
case of officers than in the case of
enlisted men, the latter in many cases

LIVING ON THE ROOFS

Yuma people know that the roof is the coolest room in the house. but the people in many other parts of the country, have been answering the question: "Why not use it? with the response: Sure enough, why not?"
 In New York there are roof gardens, but as rule most of these are en- closed, and are in fact more like sun parlors. In Wash ington it is different, for there a roof is a real roof. The Army and Navy Club and the National Press Club maintain elaborate dining ac- or a dozen stories from the ground, and at night these are splendidly lighted, and hundreds of people seek the cool, pleasant retreats.
 Some of the leading hotels maintain roof gardens, and serve food, music and enter tainment, at prices as high as their midsummer establish ments. Many Washington homes also have roof gardens, that are used as a sort of cool place at night. One of the handsomest new resi- dences of Washington has been built by former Senator Scott, who has become a Washington banker. All of the modern comforts that could be thought of have been provided on the roof and he has a home that ought to bring him and his family lot of happiness in the capital city.
