ARE WE AGGRESSIvE3

Nations, like men, are measured by
their deeds not words. Thousands OF
peace protestations on the part of a
nation that is building huge battle
ships are less convincing than no pro-
testations and less preparedness.
Is the United States an aggressive
nation? Every American answers in
dignantly, mo" Was Germany an
aggressive nation? America is sure
that she is, and we prove it. How?
By pointing to her efficient prepared
ness before the war. Our standard
seems to indicate that we are more ag-
gressive than Germany since we are
proposing an expenditure of more
money than any other nation, Ger
many included, ever spent in times of
peace.
But we know that we are not ag-
gressive. We feel it in our hearts You
will find that Germans, too, believe that
they are not attacking. They know III
their hearts that they would never be
aggressive. Have you ever met many
people who admitted that they them
selves carried chips on their shoul- !
ders"? Nobody ever seems to think |
that he is the aggressor.
Are we aggressive? Ask Spain.
Our country will always be judged |
the aggressor, and rightly, too. as long
as We continue our policy of gigantic
preparedness.

H. G. Wells New Novel.

1t could hardly be doubted that som,
author would write a great war novel
And what is more logical than tha,
it should be H. G. Wells? "Mr. Brit.
ling Sees 1t Through" is a work oi
profound interest and appeal which
seeks to show what the gigantic con-
fiict means to those who are in the
midst of it. 1t is not tale of terrible
conditions at the front, of the horrors
of actul warfare. but is something
deeper in its analysis of life than that.
The scene is Matching Easy, an Es-
sex county village, in which it typified
the old England. Here Mr.. Britling
lives and here he sees the changes
which the war brings, which are again
typical of the changes, social and eco
nomic, which are being wrought
through the empire. All of this is set
forth is as dramatic and fascinating
a story as any Mr.. Wells has written,
a story of varied incident and strik-
ing character.

But the insistent friend continued to
ply the Senior with questions which
he was unable to answer. It was re-
vealed that the student knew very
little about Columbia. He had never
seen the shoe factory, city pumping
station or power plant, except from
the windows of passenger train. The
presence of the city gas plant was
made known to him by sense of smell
only. He had never been inside the
Boone County courthouse. Yes, he
had heard of the biological and socio-
logical museums at the University, but
he did not know their exact location
He did not know where the best resi-
dences in Columbia were to be found
or how far the city limits extended.
He could not inform his friend as
to the fire-fighting apparatus of the
city. He did not know whether the
city water which he drank came from
artesian wells, reservoir or the
Hinkson. And as to the history of
this good old southern town" he was
absolutely ignorant.

THE WORK OF A VISITING NURSE

Two thousand visits to the sick in
one year, an average of more than five
visits day, is the approximate record
of Columbia's visiting nurse. This
shows that such a need has been felt
and is now being filled efficiently.
These visits, while dealing principally
with tubercular patients, have reached
various forms of sickness where aid
of the nurse was needed.
No other town this size in the state
has been able to provide a visiting
nurse. Where funds could be obtained
other conditions were not favorable.
The financial responsibility involved
has been the main trouble which could
not be overcome The work here is
source of envy to those interested in
other places. For three years the
Charity Organization Society has sup
piled nurse who has been willing to-
go into all sorts of homes under the
worst conditions possible. After car
ing for patient through sickness, she
has even been called upon to continue
the care until burial. Such a position
is hard to fill. In other Missouri towns
where finance was available, no nurse
could be found willing to do the work
mapped out for her. Surely Columbia
should feel grateful for such an Of
flee well filled.
The Charity Organization Society is
not alone to be commended for the
visiting nurse. Back of this have been
the citizens of Columbia working for
the best interests of the town. When
aid has been asked liberal contribu-
tions have always been received. A
nurse working under conditions where
she feels that the people are back of
her is able to accomplish more than
when the sentiment is against her
work. Support is necessary for sue
cess. This confidence explains to a
great degree the attainment here
which other towns have so far been
unable to reach.
