Universal Service

I
Is there not some way in which
Congress can apply the test in order
to satisfy itself as to popular senti-
ment with respect TO universal ser
vice law?
The enactments Of legislative bodies
usually follow popular sentiment at
good distance, especially with re-
spect to those matters which, like this,
concern the people directly. Ordinar-
lily this is perhaps well enough; but
this particular matter is one on which,
in view both of the nations utterly
defenseless condition so far as land
forces are concerned and its tradi-
tional tendency to ignore all questions
of defense when the world is at
peace, it is of the utmost Importance
to make the act accompany the will.
Universal service under the Swiss
plan is at once the Most American,
the fairest and the cheapest solution
of the problem of land defense,
1t is most American because it is
simply going back to the tradition in
which this Republic was born-the
tradition that every able-bodied citi-
zen must be stone in the living wall
of defense which rings round the
State.
1t is fairest because it divides the
work of defense among all those who
are able to perform it, recognizing
no distinction Of class or condition.
1t is cheapest for the reason that
it trains the citizen in boyhood, be-
fore he becomes a full-fedged pro-
Queer, when his withdrawal from or
binary occupations has little economic
significance, and when, in consequence,
his pay may be low in proportion to
his earning power. So, both from the
point of view of actual money cost
and indirect though real cost through
the subtraction of productive men
from industry, it is the most econom-
ical system ever devised.
In Switzerland its cost is about
1921 annually for every inhabitant of
the country. Food and railway trans
portation are both higher in Switzer-
land than in the United States. At
the same cost per inhabitant here, the
system could be provided at an eX-
pense of S220,000000 a year. AT the
Swiss ratio of effective men to pop
ulation, this would give us trained
citizen army of more than 100000
men, at cost considerably less than
twice that Of our present regular
army Of 100000 electives.
The American people want to see
an adequate land force provided. We
do not want gigantic standing army;
we want our regular army increased
until it is sufficient to serve for the
ordinary policing Of our frontiers and
colonies; but beyond this point we
want to depend on the prepared citi-
zen. There are three-and but three
possible choices: unpreparedness; a
gigantic regular army, like that of
France or Germany; the Swiss system
of universal training service of all
citizens.
This last is the system the Ameri-
can people, in our belief, are now dis
posed to give a trial to. We commend
the matter to the most earnest con-
sideration of Congress.--St. Louis

THE OPTIMIST AND The PESSIMIST

Two gay young frogs from inland boys
Had spent the night in drinking; sS
As morning broke and they awoke
Ere yet their eyes were blinking,
A farmers pail came to the swail
And caught them quick winking.
Ere they could gather scattered senses,
Or breathe prayer for past offenses,
The granger grave, that guileless man
Had dumped them in the mlk-mans can;
The filed up, the lid shut down,
They're quickly started off to town.
The luckless frogs begin to quake,
And sober up on cold milk shake,
They quickly find their breath will stop
Unless they swim upon the top;
They kick for life, they kick and swim
Until their weary eyes grow dim;
Their muscles ache, their breath grows short,
And, gasping speaks weary sp
"Say, dear old boy, it's pretty tough ort;
But I've enough kicks for life; to die SO young,
No more I'll try it; wasn's raised
"Tut, tut, my lad" the other cred,n milk diet"
"A frogs not dead until he dies; as
Let's keep on kicking--that's my pa
We yet may see outside this can."n;
"No use no USE" faint heart replied,
Turned up his toes and gently died.
The Drawer frog, undaunted still,
Kept kicking with right good WILL
Until, with joy too great utter,
He found he'd churned lump of butter,
And climbing that chunck of grease
He hoated round with greatest
when tasls are hard, and trials frown,
Don't ret discouraged and go down;
Keep ticFing still, no murmur utter;
few moro kicks may bring the butter.

question Of q generation that will be
decided at the polls In West Virginia

listened to the false statements OF
the opponents Of the measure.
1t is time that the business men Of
the commonwealth look the question
fairly in the face. They should look
at 1t as they would look at any other
practical question. Look at It from
the point Of efficiency as well as the

BAR CRABTREE AS
DOG SHOW JUDGE
Kennel Club
Rules Expert Englishman
Ineligible to Act.

A notice has been received by the
SOUTHAMPTON Kennel Club from the
American Kennel Club, stating that the
British judge Samuel Crabtree. is in
eligible TO act at the dog show to be
held on Saturday, July 8. The ulti-
Inatum is based on the new rule that
forbids a professional handler serving
as Judge. except on the Pacific Coast,
at American Kennel Club shows.
Crabtree, who lives at Fallsworth,
Manchester, England, has been en- er-
hibitor and Judge at the leading Brit
ish and Continental shows for many
wears. lie is now in California, under
engagement TO Mrs. Anita Baldwin, al
adviser and temporary manager OF
kennel Of show dogs she is establishing
on a large scale.
f. f. Dole, superintendent Of tho
SOUTHAMPTON Kennel Club, states that
he regarded the presence of Crabtres
in the United States as an unriyalled
opportunitv 20 gain the opinion OF a
Great international expert on the breeds
he was asked 10 judge, that would be
Of real benefit TO American dog breed
ers. He had understood in an inter-
view with Secretary Nredenburgh OF
the American Kennel Club that there
was no question of Crabtree's status as
Judge
The edict against him followed a
meeting of the executive committee,
and i'm Dole's opinion tho American
Kennel Club has made a blunder that
NAV involve 10 in a legal action with
Crabtree.
The American Kennel Clubs defni-
ton of a professional handler Is "a
person who handles, boards, conditions
or shows dogs for money as means OF
livelihood" Dole asserts that Crab
tree is in no sense proiesslon~..
handler, and that he IS the type Of
Efficient Judge from whose placings the
exhibitors and breeders would derive
instruction and satisfaction, as irdicat-
ing whether or not they are conduct
ing their dog breeding operations on
wise methods.
Crabtrce. who ia on his way to New
York, it is believed, will demand a vim
dication of his right to judge. With
the possible exception of George Raper,
the British breeder of fox terriers, who
has often Judged at New York, Crab
tree is said 20 have made more trips
about the world to act in that capacity
at dog shows than any other interna-
tional expert.
At a special meeting on Saturday the
SOUTHAMPTON Kennel Club decided to
ask the Manhattan amateur, Dr. George
Anderson, TO relieve it from an en-
barrassing situation by judging the
breeds that had been assigned to Crab
tree the bulldogs, bull terriers, Skye,
Bedlington, Dandie Dinmont and Man
chester terriers and the Schipperkes
lie has consented, and this morning
the announcement that Or. Anderson
will judge will be sent TO the eXhib-
itOrs.

he beat him by a narrow margin Of
$50 feet
AGAINST Goallet in the grand semi
final and Grcnda in the final Kran-Sr
elected 20 ride from the rear. Re
sides. he gave both men plenty of
chances, as he remained two lengths
behind each At the eighth pole. IN
each heat. Then he came with dash
and rode around TO the lead IN the
home stretch.
