December.

Now ends the year that well began
In peace. upon the first Of Jan.
And now that 1t begins to ebb.
Do you recall those days in Feb.
When submarines arose to bar
The way to peace? The month Of Mar,
When war upreared its grisly shape.
Or Wilson's burning words, in Ap?
That epoch seems so far away
The martial song that rose in May,
The marching feet, the filters tune,
The loan we made our land in June:
The men that went again to school
To learn the art of war, in Jul;
The fight upon the Profit Hog
That waxed so hot in days OF Aug;
The crops that ripened as we slept,
And blessed US in the month Of Sept:
The Germans, SO surprised and shocked
To find our boys across. in Oct;
The coins we gave. the clothes we wove,
The sox we knitted. all thru Nov:
We've struck some mighty blows for
Peace
Within the year that ends this Dec!

strategy that takes them straight to the

Reliance upon newspapers for the per-

In anything but an enyiabe light.

execution to the business and profession

Of remuneration and sacrifice just now.

O. X. With Air Enough

We creatures Of this mite OF a planet
called the Earth are 70 ger such a spen-
did view o. an enormous comet. next
June, that in spite Of the war. the scien-
fists are already unusually busy with
astronomy. and. as usual. the red hot
theorlzing Is largely focused on old Mars.
The telescope and spectroscope experts
have at last practically unanimously
agreed that II Mars isn't inhabited. it
ought 70 be and could be. Mars has an
atmosphere closely resembling the
Earth's, tho considerably rarer. Il has
its seasonal and physical changes identi-
cal with those Of the Earth, save as TO
duration. Il mas permanent divisions and
features just ike the Earth's You'd De
ready 10 swear that II has men. women.
children, dogs, chickens cats and such.
were 1t not for that little matter Of
over-rare atmosphere. Let Us put our
scientific mind on this point. or Inpedi-
ment, Tor a moment
Mars atmosphere has plenty Of hydro
gen. How much Of oxygen has it, Our
air Is largely made up u oxygen and hy-
drogen. What do we DO. when short Of
air? We revive the half-drowned person
with a pulmonator, containing oxygen.
When an invalid gets nearly out, we apply
oxygen. When an aviator wants 20 20
way up into real rare air. he wears a
helmet full Of oxygen.
Forsooth. all we've got 20 DO 20 clinch
our idea that Mars is inhabited is 10 be-
lieve that the Martians are so constituted
As 10 get along on limited amount Of
oxygen in their atmosphere. or have de-
vised means Of supplying themselves
with oxygen Don't discard this latter
proposition before recalling that We
Earth inhabitants have only just begun
20 get 50 vital an essential 20 all Earth
life as nitrate from our atmosphere.
Now, the scientists are perfectly sat
iSfied that Mars is millions Of years older
than the Earth and a long. long time
ago, went thru practically the same
stages as those thru which the Earth is
passing. In other words. Mars inhabi-
tants have much farther progre- ed and
| are very much wiser than Earth folk. and.
consequently. their getting up the neces-
sary oxygen for themselves Is not a re-
markable feat II iii
