Mr.. Spock then took up the question
Of the interchange OF freight W

one OF the railroads strongest argu-
mcn,s for the continuance OF the present
control. Mr.. Gardner said that when
freigh: traffic was heavy on one Sound
line AS many as ten cars Of freight were
rerouted on a few hours notice to an
other line, by which they were landed at
the point desired in New York. All OF
the facilities of the railroad n the

pose. he said. and the result Is an elias

"I thought you said the railroad lines

The Great Army Era.

From the Columbus Journal
In recent speech Seth Low said
whatever the outcome of the war. its
results could not be less than revoIu-
tionary upon the life OF the world.
One thing it surely has done, and that
is it has changed the wars of small
armies into wars of great armies. No
war has ever had such armies as the
present one. They run up into millions.
AT Waterloo anG Gettysburg there were
only about 10000 on a side. and they
were great, decisive battles. but in the
European battles such engagements
would not be regarded as much more
than skrmishing.
If, then, the lesson of this war is
that the armies engaged in future wars
are to run into the millions. will not
that fact of itself establish the policy
of militia rismr is not this war teaching
the nations that small armies cannot
win. and that they must be prepared
with vast armies. Surely it does, un-
less the peace idea of an international
tribunal for the settlement of all diff
ferences is universally adopted. The
alternative is big armies of peace tri-
bunaIs We may say big armies at
first but we are sure to come to peace
tribunals at last The people will not
stand war forever. Whatever may be
done in the transition period, the time
will come. and it is not far away, when
nations will tolerate war no more. The
! careless will laugh at this. but ii is as
certain as geologic evolution.

How Steel Helmets Are Made.
From PcarsoD's Weekly.

From Pearson Weekly.
The plain steel helmet now worn ov
all French soldiers is becoming quite
familiar even to people in England. 1t
will surprise most people who have
seen these helmets to know that there
are no fewer than siXty-four distinct
operations necessary in turning one of
them out.
The first step is stamping gu, disks
from large sheets of steel A special
machine is used for this purpose. ex-
erting pressure of $50 tons and ca =
pab1e of cutting out 5000 steel disks
a day.
Each disk is placed under shall ping
ma chine. which presses the disk into
the form of a helmet with broad
rim. Polishing and cutting machines
remove all irregularities in the helmet,
after which it has holes punched in the
crown, some for ventilation purposes
others for fastening on the regimental
crest. Each helmet ~ cleaned and
! dipped in special mixture. which
| makes IL a dull, inconspicuous blush
| gray. A lining and leather chin stra ps
are then fastened on, and the helmet
| is complete.
| Since the French army has been pro
! tected with the helmet the number Of
deaths due TO wounds III the head has
! decreased to remarkable extent

what is more. it is very interesting

where than a little family of three or
four months pigs gamboling about in
a stable yard. chasing little snuffs of
wind and tossing imaginary straw5
hither and thither. We commend the

pig for a companion along the streets.
One thing that is effectual about it is,
il will tend to keep young men at their
distance We do hone the pig viii be-
come aristocratic enough to make itself
almost social necessity among the
aristocracy. 1t would certainly i'm
prove them. which the dog has failed
to do. Still. the dog is the hyperion
of animals: but the little pig-he is
all grace and beauty, just like the
damsel. who is leading him with a
silken cord. Welcome the pig to our
