THE RHETORIC OF WAR

OF all the rhetoric produced by this war,
in the best sense of the word rhetoric by
the way, it is not likely that much will
surpass in effectiveness the closing words
az {; X Chesterton's The Grimes Of Eng
land. 4" which. as may be imagined, is a
rscord of the crimes of Prussia:
..The English went forward through the
wood that is called Crecy, and stamped il
y,itb their seal for he second time, in the
highest moment Of all the secular history
~ men. But it was not now the Crecy in
which English and French knights had met
in a more colored age, in a battle that was
ether a tournament. IL was a league Of

seainst that which Is and has been radi-
ceIIv unknightly and radically unbrothery
rom the beginning. Much was to happen
after-murder and flaming folly and mad
ness in earth and sea and sky; but all men
t,rayv in their hearts that the third Prussian
thrust mad failed. and Christendom was de-
Ii,,ered once more. The empire Of blood
and iron rolled slowly back toward the

brown or tiger, has been found in isolated
instances as far north as Cape Cod during
July and August All are particularly sin
iStcr in makeup, and the sight of their
dark, lean fin laaily cutting zgzags on the
quiet, sparkling surface of a summer sea
and then slipping out of sight, not to appear
again, is suggestive of an evil spirit, When
seen at close range they strike terror, show
ing lcerinE, ChinlesS face and rows of
knife-like teeth. They have brutal, nerve
less vitality and insensibility to physical in
jury.
In the blue variety the teeth are strong
ly serrate, those of the upper jaw some
what oblique those of the lower narrower
and erect. In color this fish is steel blue,
light BLUSH or Grayish above. and paler be-
low. It's greatest known length is 10 feet.
The white variety is of n leaden gray color,
with white belly. and the upper edges and
pcCtoTal fins black. This shark Is known
scientifically as CarCharodon carcherias, or
hitter with jagged teeth" A specimen Is
feet long was captured in net off Woods
Hole, Mass, in June. 1908.
The tiger shark is particularly dreaded
in West Indian waters. Stragglers have
been taken in strong nets as far north as
Cade Cod, and one was caught near Islip,
l.. l.. September /. 1915. by Captain John
DoXsell, the monster being 20 feet in length
The brown shark has never been caught in
northern waters and there is no absolutely
authenticated record of one being seen on
the northern coast, although tradition cites
a number of instances.

flied BY war and by the aliens touch.
Her wealth is held; her armies. from
every corner of the Republic and from
every class OF her citizens have borne
always the first shock OF battle and
have paid the highest price. Yet she
has not murmured. She has not de-
nounced us for not fighting her battles,
She has not pleaded for special favors.
She has not tried to corrupt our Govern
ment, nor has she been torn by internal
dissensions while the enemy shook the
gates of her citadel. She has been self
sufficient and loyal, and she has looked
so clearly into the eyes of death that life
can have no terrors for her again. What
was weak in her has been burned out.
What was strong now knows how to be
tender
The France which, more than century
ago today, told the world that God was
tired of kings tells the world today that
humanity has its place and its powers
and that, in the Divine Order there is
room for liberty. She tells it in a passion
of sanity. She is logical in her war as
in her peace and rises to the height Of
beauty in the ugliest hour of the worlds
history. 1t is hardly to be wondered at
that Germany herself has been loudest in
her praise, for more than ever is it true
that every man has two countries-his
own and France. She has done what Ger
many ardently desired to do, has been
both human and divine. For this is tho
secret of France, that in her the passions
for the highest and for the lowest, for
aristocracy and democracy, burn with
the same fervor. She erected the Bastille
when she carried the cult of aristocracy
to its extreme, and she tore it down. She
won. then, her Grand Cross. Today she
carries democracy to the same limits and
wins the medaille militaire. She has borne
her cross. She wins her salvation.

There is scientific record of blue shark
caught off Cuba in 1910 that was hooked

for hours, during which time It threshed it's

its stomach, so that the whole organ, inside
out trails foot or more from the mouth
while the fish swims swiftly on.

IN NORTHERN ATLANTIC
WATERS SHATTER ALL TRADITIONS
Attacks by Sharks Bahers Along the New Jersey Coast
Puzzle Scientists, Who Say Monsters Which Caused
Several Deaths Belong to Blue or White Varieties

ALL scientific accounts and records are
"A blown to the four winds by attacks by
sharks upon four bathcrs on the North
Atlantic coast within a fortnight. Two of
the victims were killed in open tributaries
10 miles from the sea.
The dying statement of w Stanley
Fisher, who lost his life in Matawan Creek
in n futile attempt to aid l4-year-old
Lester Stillwel that the shark which caused
their deaths eight feet long, classiiies
the fish as being either Il blue or white
shark, although there are two other man
eating varieties These, the tiger shark
and the brown shark are seldom caught
less than 15 feet in length, and are often
in their full adult growth 30 feet long.
II Is therefore certain, according to an as
sistant curator of the Philadelphia Acad-
emy of Natural Sciences, that the type
which has caused alarm on the New Jer-
sey coast is either blue or white shark,
the latter most likely as 1t is by prefer
ence a man-eater, even when other food
is easily procurable.
Among Earliest of Fishes
Sharlllike forms not unlike those of to-
day were among the very earliest of fishes
found II the seven seas 1t is, therefore,
natural to find shark structure simple and
primitive as compared with other fish,
which have reached their present anatomi-
cal form and habits through evolution.
SHARKS are Oh TWO types oi bFltla blph'~'
the more or less cylindrical or compressed
form, which is the true shark, and the
relatively harmless, broad, fiat, depressed
species many of which specialize by lying
upon the bottom.
The true species, including the man'eater,
rs a large fish with a curved transverse
Iaouth on the upper side of the head and
an asymmetrical caudal fin, the upper lobe
OF which Is longer than the lower. The
fish has no overlapping platelike scales, and
the more or less rough skin extends over
the fiapper-like fins. The latter are very
different from fins of most fishes, in which
a framework. of spines or rays Is connected
by d-dcate membrane.
The sharks gill cavities open TO the ex-
terror by characteristic parallel Sits on the
side of the neck. The nasal apparatus is
we'll developed for sharks depend much
upon the sense of smell in finding food. As
a rule the shark is sluggish, but is capable
of great speed when excited The man
eating varieties are known in group as
mackerel sharks. They generally turn on
side or back in taking food from the
surface, although they have been known To
seize floating objects while maintaining an
uDr ght position. but in so doing they are
compelled TO push the snout out of water.
