DO you love poetry? If you
do, VT want to quote to you
from an article by Mark Twain
which recently appeared in Col
liers. Read it and enjoy it;
1.-THE sunlight of a dawn slant
in through your window; the
t%wittering of birds in the tree
top; the dandelions in the grass;
children romping in the park;
the usefulness in the eyes of
your own little boy or girl: sight
of two lovers at a trysting
place; the quiet happiness and
understanding of the old couple
at their golden wedding; the
friend whom you salute at the
street corner; fellow workers
content in their routine; the
soaring lines of the sky-scraper
or the lonely sycamore; the
ceaseless pulsing of the city
street or the hush of winter
calmness of a county hillside;
the farmer among his stock or
the sailor in the rigging;
the cry of the wind and the
whirl of the snow flashes; the
calm fireside at home and the
rustic and leap of it's flames;
night and the eternal stars
these make the poetry OF life
given to all and transending al

HOW THE WAR
GRIPS EUROPE

GRIPS EUROPE
An astounding story is sent
out under a London date line
by a press reporter concerning
the efforts now being made by
the governments of France,
England and Germany to slim
ulate the birth rate. Almost all
the ordinary conventionalists
concerning marriage have been
set aside in the earnest desire of
statesmen for the advent of
more babies.
In France the mother of a
child bora out of wedlOck is
granted a pension just the same
as those who are married. A
system has also been devised
whereby marriage with a sold
Ter at the front may be COnsum-
mated by proxy. The Germans
are reported to be going about
this business of helping the
stork with their accustomed
thorOughness. English sold
iers are encouraged in every
possible manner to marry be
fore they go to the front. The
heretofore rather high charges
for marriage licenses have been
reduced in England to a very
nominal sum.
The war is working a mighty
transformation in the minds
and in the methods of European
statesmen. 1t is disCerned very
clearly by these men that there
is prospect that the results of
the NapOleonic wars on France
a hundred years ago are likely
to be duplicated in all of the
countries engaged in this war.
1t is asserted that the stature
of the French people was reduc-
ed three inches by the slaught-
er of the best and strongest men
in the country through the al
most ceaceless warfare conduct
ed by Napolean during his re-
gime as head of the armies and
emperor of the country.
Already the loss O" life in the
contending armies in this war
has been tremendous and it is
fullv anticipated that it will be
even greater before the end is
reached. The loss of two or
three million men by each ofthe
three countries named above is
going to exert a profound infu
enCe for several generations.
With these possibilities in mind
the statesmen who are directing
affairs are actually seeking to
recouping this certain loss by
stimulating as far as possible
the birth rate in their respect
i've countries.
Never before have these gov
ernments recognized the value
of real men as they do today.
This recognition is forced by
military necessity. 1t is enevi-
table that following this war
there is going to be wider re-
cognition of the value of men
as citizens. And out of this
struggle there is likely to come
a demand that every child born
into the world shall come into
on environment in which it will
have an opportunity to develop
it's best talents. Personal lib
erty which simply means licen-
&c to DESTROY physical manhood
and dull and dwarf intellect,
will be denied in these coun-
tries far more fin the future than
it has in the past.
