community loses him.
The great men at Washington say
that all classes must work together
for the conservation Of natural re-
sources The boy is natural re-
source All kinds Of people should
work together in order that he should
be saved. His mind should be con-
served by a knowledge Of the world
about him. The country school should
teach him the mysteries Of the soil,
the habits and value Of birds and the
marvellous wealth Of the vegetable
world about him. Unfortunately the
country school in America has wasted
more boy property than all the preda-
tory corporations have wasted in the
way Of timber and water power.
The country church and school
should make the community enjoyable
for the boy. My first and most valued
words Of praise as a minister came to
me from the father Of big family
who thanked me for giving his sons an
opportunity for Wholesome recreation
and happy social life. Their minds
and hearts were starved for social en-
joyment and healthy human company.
Proft-sharing, too, is as good on
the farm as in the steel industry.
Every farmers son should have an
allowance, even if the farm has to be
mortgaged to pay it to him. II he
were laborer you would be obliged
to pay him, and as he is both your son
and your farmland he has rights of
ownership as well as wages to his
credit. If you do not give him a
square deal in the way of money, he
will desert you when you need him
most and go out to practice upon the
rest of the world the same unfair
"closeness" which he learned on the
farm where he was born and brought
up.

poverished by forever exacting the
same thing of them and never fertiliz-

need rotation Of experience, as fields
need rotation Of crops. Boys are ex-
plotted like timbered hill, when the
nobility that crowns them is cut off
and turned into money. And when the
crop Of boys is exhausted in the coun-
try town the community produces less
Of everything else.
Boys leave the farm because they
are made work-cattle. They sleep and
eat in the house, but they work like

OBITUARY


James LAWYER an old and respected
resident Of Manchester, passed away
Monday, Oct. %, at his late home in
East Dorset The deceased was n
years old, coming 10 this country from
County Kildare, Ireland in the early
sixties, and settling in this town. For
upwards Of fifty years he lived on his
farm and won the respect Of all with
whom he came in contact He was
deeply religious and charitable to a
marked degree, giving largely to all
the needy, being ever ready to assist
the chance wayfarer over his rough
road. Owing TO i'll health he was
obliged to dispose OF his farm and for
the past year had ceased his activity,
living quietly in East Dorset
During his last illness he was low
ingly cared for by his faithful wife.
who is left TO mourn him and to whom
the community at large extend their
sincerest sympathy. The funeral was
held Wednesday morning from st.
Jerome's Church and interment took
place in the cemetery adjoining.

rush Belgium and reduce Paris-Eng-
lands hands tied in Ireland-and
then, having overrun France and over
come the French-to turn her resist
less arms upon Russia. 1t made a
pretty showing on paper. But, as we
have seen, "the best-laid schemes O.
mice and men gang aft agley." Eng
lands hands were not tied by Ireland.
Belgium resisted long enough for
England to get there. The failure
before Paris marked failure upon the
whole theory in which the general
staff in Berlin had so confidently laid
its plan of campaign.
The South was not prepared for war
as Germany-it had no such fighting
machine--but it was better prepared
than the North, and winning the first
victories, was able, in spite of the
disparity of forces and resources, to
prolong the struggle four years.
At late as 1864 a national conven-
ton, nominating General Mcclellan
for president, declared the war a
failure" Throughout the succeeding
presidential campaign, Mr.. Lincoln
was often in sore distress of mind.
Yet at that very moment, both Cen
eral Lee and General johnson knew
that the confederacy had but a short
time to live, while among the better
advised among southern men it had
begun to be whispered that "the bot
tom must soon drop out of the tub"
And, sure enough, after an example
of prowess, endurance and skill, never
surpassed, in the early days of 1865,
the starved and ragged fabric of the
confederacy fell in heap, helpless
mass. "You didn't whoop u.s." said an
old confederate soldier, holding on to
the hand of General Fred Grant affec-
on the occasion Of he dedi-
cation of the state of General Stephen
d. Lee in the National Cemetery at

Something like this will happen to
the Kaiser alliance. 1t is no more in
the books for Germany to win than it
was in the books for the confederacy
TO win. If Germany could win the
world would not be fit to live in. We
can now easily picture to ourselves
what would have followed the triumph
of the South and the establishment Of
l southern confederacy upon the
North American continent, leaving
two exhausted contestants to become
The prey of European intrigue, setting
the clock Of freedom back century,
and splitting a noble union into per-

nents, to repeat in the New World the
mistakes and misadventures of the
Old.

WAR CAN HAVE BUT ONE END
Parallels Between it and Hopeless
Fight of Confederacy as Seen by
Colonel WattersOn.

Parallels Between it and Hopeless
Fight of Confederacy as Seen by
Colonel WattersOn.
There are some striking similitudes
between the war of the Kaisers in
Europe and the war of secession in
America, says the Louisville Courier
Journal.
Except in the Gulf States there was
in 1861 no strong secession sentiment.
The Gulf States drew the border
States after them. An overwhelming
majority of the soldiers who later
fought in the confederate armies
chung to the union until the fall of
Sumter and the call for troops from
Washington made decisive line Of
cleavage between the sections. Then
it was, and only then, war actual and
the debate ended, that they went with
their own section. Here we have a
contrast rather than a parallel, for in
Germany the people had nothing to
do with it. War was upon them be-
fore they knew it.
The extremists of the South clam
ored for ''our rights in the territories. :"
The theorizers of Germany clamored
for "a place in the SUM-" In each in
stance it was as the cry of child for
the moon.
There was no territorial fright"
from which the South was excluded,
carrying any practical value. Slavery
was already doomed. 1t could not go
or be taken, where it was not wanted,
or where the physical and climatic
conditions we're hostile. The institu-
ton was effete and dying The trend
Of modern thought all over the world
was set against it. But had it been
otherwise a war inaugurated by the
Gulf States in defense was bound to
end with its destruction, no matter
which end might win.
Now for the parallel. There was
no place in the sun" from which
Germany was excluded Her ships
laden with her wares and products
sailed every sea in freedom and Sc
curity. She was meeting and beating
her commercial rivals in many mar
kets. "Made in Germany" had be-
come taking trademark. What had
Germany to get by going to war? As
little as the southern States Of Ameri-
ca "A place in the sun" like "our
rights in the territories was wholly
illusory and misleading.
That lone Southron could whip six
Yankees with a cornstalk," wherewith
gullibe minds at the South were in
fiated, corresponds to the Germanic
claim Of "superman."
In each case war began in fury OF
uncalculating passion. Blind hysteria
the southern people. The
immense disparity between the re-
sources of the South and the resources
Of the North was unconsidered. That
"the South was bound TO win" was the
universal belief. Cotton was king.
Europe would be forced TO intervene.
In like manner Germany set out 10
