Are We Ready For War

VF modification of the National Guard at the
Mexican boundary is prompt the show OF
force may serve the purpose and declaration OF
war may not ensue. However il remains to he
seen whether the Guard is ready for instant
service as a citizen army should be, to protect
our shores against foreign foes
There has been talk enough of preparedness
The question is. are we ready: Has the European
obiect-lessom awakaded the American people t"
realization of the danger our land is in: Sup
pose instead OF Mexico it had been Germany, Eng
land, France, Russia, or Japan that had threatened
invasion OF American territory, would we have
been any more ready to repel invasion:
Il There are certainly half million men i'll the
United States who are trained in military usage
and another half million who have had at least
a smattering OF drill at some time i'll their lives
but are they read y in the military sense: Have
we tents guns ammunition, medical supplies or
trenching tools for million men? What about
transportation, Commssary, and intelligence de
'partments, wireless, and engineering squad
rons? Do our citizen soldiers know how to take
care of themselves, cook their own food boil their
own water: How many pounds can they pack
hundred miles
The regular army has at least enough OF all
necessary supplies to start something How long
can they keep it up? In these days OF machine
guns and high explosives. men, soldiers. cannon
meat are the least Of the requirements of warfare
Men we have and their bravery is unqueSt"ncd.
but are they prepared to fight, even against
Mexico?
In Europe not fifth Of the men constituting
the attacking defending armies are at the battle
front. A modern army is like machine tool, only
the cutting edge Of which impinges against the
metal it is to wear away and destroy Bullets
once spent cannot be used again-nor men
After all this talk OF war the American people
ready to defend themselves.

was not In its usual place. and he ask
Cd the waitress why It was missing.
"Why, Mr.. Cladin," she said, 1T was
raining 80 hard and IS 90 muddy that
I was afraid II I went after the water
I should be too soiled to wait on the
tsble. I asked Michael to get it for
me, but he said it was his business to
look after the horses and carriages. not
to run errands.''
"Oh!' said Mr.. Clafiin thoughtfully.
Perhaps he is right, Ella. Please tell
him I want the victoria"
Ten minutes later, with much tram

the carriage drew up at the door, with
Michael on the box in his rubber coat
and hat cover.
"Come, Ella" said Mr.. Clanin, get
your pitcher" and taking her BY the
arm he walked down the front steps
and helped her into the carriage.
