Song From GitanjdH.

IN HOU art the sky and thou art the nest well.
o, thou beautiful, there in the nest it is thy love
that encoses the soul with colors and sounds
and odors.
There comes the morning with the golden basket in
her right hand bearing the wreath of beauty silently
to crown the earth.
And there the evening the lonely meadows
deserted by herds, thru rackess paths, carrying cool
draughts of peace in her golden pitcher from the western
of rest.
But there where spreads the infinite sky for the soul
to take her flight n reigns the stainless white radiance
There is no day night form color and never,
never word.-Tagore

Two Moro Years Of War

n n lL1TARI authorities of the allied gov
1VA ernments are known to be projecting
their plans upon the assumption that the war
will continue for at least two years more.
Hope, of course is not abandoned that some
sudden collapse on the part of Austria or all
economic breakdown in Germany may ma
terially shorten the war, but neither con-
tingency is being calculated upon in fixing
the program for either the 1918 or the 1919
campaigns.
Within one more year Americas weight
in the conflict should be at its maximum.
BY that time more than 100000 American
men will be the firing line, and perhaps
rs many more in reserve behind the line or
in environments at home trained and equipped
to take the field. BY that time the bulk of
the great merchant fleet which we are build
ing should be afioat. By that time new
armada of torpedo-boat destroyers will be in
commission BY that time the economic life
of this nation will have conformed itself to
rigid war conditions.
But 1t is not expected that this consum-
nation alone can bring the war to a conclu-
sion. Americas strength may be the decid-
ing factor but 1t will not bring about peace
without q long period of desperate fighting,
and this country should reconcile itself to
that fact. 1t should prepare itself for severe
losses Of men, the severest loss which any
nation can sustain 1t should drill into itself
the idea that it must practice the most far
reaching economies in its consumption of
food and in It's expenditures of money 1t
Is often observed that the American people
have never quito realized that they are at
war; that they have the feeling still that the
whole thing is far removed from them, and
that they cannot be made to understand that
they must submit to sacrifices. The truth
of this is not to be denied No bombs have
been dropped in our crowded cities by ruth
less enemies. Our ports have not been bonn
barded. Our land has not been invaded.
We are going along in much the same fashion
that we did two or three years ago.
If the war continues for two more years,
America will definitely know that it is a bel
ligerent nation. With a million or two of
its men under fire and with the casualty lists
growing longer and longer: with loan after
loan being foated by the government. and
with taxation mounting higher and higher;
with tho demand for food to sustain our allies
becoming more and more imperative, and
with the necessity for our people to increase
their productive capacity becoming more and
more pressing, this country will be fully con-
scious of what war entails 1t is not too soon
for every man, woman and child in the land
| to understand what their government will ex-
pect or exact OF them during the next two
years.
