Conscience is going to rage, pretty
considerably. for a time Some of
our young men are going to discover
for the first time in their lives, in
many cases. that they have "consci

news is to the effect that the exemp-

the conscientious scruples against
war service must be shown by the
life record and religious faith and

CHAPTER TX.

Johns first caller at the Milan was,
In way, a surprise to him. He was
sitting smoking an after-breakfast
pipe on the following morning, and
gazing at the telephone directory, when
his bell rang. He opened the door, to
find the prince Of Seyre standing out
side. ..
II pay you very early visit, I fear"
the latter began. ~,-,~,~,,.
mot at ALL" John replied, taking the
pipe from his mouth and throwing
open the door. 1T is very good Of you
to come and see me-"
The prince followed John into the
little sitting room. He was dressed, as
usual, with scrupulous care. His tie
was fastened with wonderful pearl,
and his fingers were perhaps trifle
overmanicured. He wore bunch Of
Parma violets in his buttonhole, and he
carried with him very faint but un-
usual perfume, which seemed to John
like the odor Of delicate green tea.
1t was just these details, and the slow.
ness of his speech, which alone &C.
centuated his foreign origin.
1T occurred to me-" he said, as he
seated himself in an easy chair, that
if you are really intending to make this
experiment in town life Of which Miss
Maurel spoke, might be of some as
sistance to you. There are certain
matters, quite unimportant in them
selves, concerning which little ad-
vice. in the beginning may save you
trouble

is launched. America will thus have
something it has never had before
a real army commensurate with the
size, wealth and Importance of the
country. We will begin to have pre-
paredness in fact rather than in
phrase.
Part of our splendid little regular
army is already in France. More Of
our troops are going. Later our new
armies will 60. If our allies need
100000 men we will send that many
If they need 100000 we will send that
many. Nobody is keen to send them.
Everyone realizes it is only stern ne
cessity that demands they be sent
through submarine infested waters to
face the dangers and hazards of bat
tie under the new and terrible con-
ditions. If we could keep them at
home with honor to ourselves and
faith to our allies, if we could keep
them here and still throw the weight
of American power against the Ger
mans, we would gladly do so.
The Allies want our troops, but
they want American ships and Amer
lean airplanes more urgently. If we
build ships more rapidly than the
German submarines can sink them,
we can feed and munition our allies.
More than that. We can absolutely
make null and void the submarine
campaign upon which the Germans
have pinned almost their last hopes.
We can defeat their plans to starve
England and France into submission
But building ships-important
though it be-is merely defense
against German offensive If
we build airplanes also, we help
in a great offensive. We give our
allies command of the air We blind
the German armies. We make them
tumble with their artillery. We make
them ignorant as to the surprise
movements of the allied troops. We
make possible the destruction of their
supply dnpots, their railroads and
even their bridges across the Rhine.
We make more than probable a great |
retreat to that river, retreat which
may degenerate into a rout. Com
mand of the air thus not only brings
victory perceptibly nearer, but also
means saving the lives of thousands
of allied troops. 1t means they can
do with fewer troops of their own,
and hence will need fewer of ours
All these things--feeding our al !
lies, binding the enemy; bringing
victory close to hand, saytth{}gRnn lives
of British and French troops depend
upon the energy, the determination
and the speed with which we push
through our shipping and aviation

Up to now our ship building pro
