( missouri folk are a neighborly lot,
all right. One of them is now busy
Iressing a bill in the Kansas legisla-
tllre which provides for the commits
sion form of government for counties;
that is, abolishing all existing county
offices and consolidating their func-
tons in the hands Of three commits
sioners and such subordinates as they
need. However. the mere fact that a
Missourian is urging such a law on
Kansas is nothing against the merits
Of the measure. These seem to be
many. But it may be question as to
whether or not Kansas is ready to try
this experiment without giving the
proposition a more careful and ex.
tended consideration than it has as vet
received. or can receive at single
brief session of the legislature.

THE GERMAN ARMY.

Like the nation itself. the German
army is curiously two-sided, for it is
both democracy and an autocracy.
but with the autocracy on top, writes
Oswald Garrison Willard, in an illus
trated article in the February Scrib-
ner. entitled "Militarism and Democ-
racy." 1t is a democracy because with
in its regiments are men of every rank
and caste. of every grade OF learning
and every degree OF poverty and
wealth. 1t is democratic because it is
compulsory and because it spares
none. No amount OF pull or power
can free a German from his year or
more of service; Il he escapes it is
because the army's draft for the year
when he becomes liable for service is
SO large that all cannot be cared for
in the existing organizations. or be-
cause some physical disability insures
his exemption. Thus, when the call to
arms came on the 4th Of August it
was literally an uprising Of the peo-
pie. The great wave OF emotion which
exalted the whole nation gained its
impetus because men of every class
went forth. singing, to die. Barriers
of all kinds were leveled: in the en-.
thusiasm of that tremendous hour
caste and rank were, for the moment
forgotten. The entire citizenship wa
drawn together by the leveling in
| fluence Of devotion to a single cause
For the moment all Germany was 4
democracy and democratic were thu
| forces which stormed Liege and sweep
like irresistible gray-green waves o
the sea through Brussels. until the.

There are many admirable young
folk in Topeka, clean-minded boys and
girls whose decency in all things is
not open to the slightest suspicion. In
fact. such boys and girls are an i'm
mensely preponderant majority Of the
young folk of the city. even if the
policewomen never happen to run
across them, or report about them.
But perhaps it isn't the business of
policewomen to record the good that
may come within the range of their
Vision. Still their continued emphasis
Of the bad that they discover might
lead the unthinking to Judge it to be
the rule rather than the glaring ex-
ception that it Is.

the delighted father of two smaller but

playroom to see them and the three
at once engaged In the most energetic
and satisfying ronp I ever heard. The
wife, who Is a nervous. fussy little wo-
man, called out several rather irritable
protests to which he responded with
surprising good temper. Finally there

too much for their mother. She threw
aside all attempt 1T self restraint and

them that for Christmas and they
haven't had it a month yet. How could
you? She always thought the boys
were careless, and now what will she
think?"
An Afternoon Spoiled.
The boys loked frightened. The
husband stood like q naughty child
trying to fit the pieces of the broken
toy together The wonderful light

bounded up the stairs had died out

(. Most Of the current war news 10 of
about the same tenor that it has been
for n couple of months. In all the
arenas of the titanic struggle, most
vigorous fighting is a daily and night

the war news has developed into a
monotonous repetition that can't be
