CHANG CEILING.

About mid-m0rning, young man
ibecomingly attired In riding clothes
surrendered his horse to the care of q
groom and assembled the steps to the
veranda Of the Claiming cottage on
the Cliff walk.
In the doorway q f00tman waited to
greet him with the manner Of welc0m-
ing an intimate Of the household.

The footman stepped back into thu
house and disappeared. Captain Parf
remained on the veFanda, seeming idly
to admire the view, in reality oblivious
Of It. preoccupied with private consid-
erations Of not unpleasant complexion.
Sounds Of stifled lamentati0n dis
| turbed his mood.
He discovered q pleasant-faced
lady's maid Of mature years, forehead
bowed against the newel-post at the
foot Of the staircase, weeping loudly
and c0piously.
"Why, Annel What's the matterr'
The woman showed q bl0wsy, tear

Donald looked round to find the
footman waiting for his attention.
"Yes. Gregory"
The man hesitated, with what
seemed singular reluctance to deliver
his message.
BEG pardon, sir I'm sorry
.. Miss Charming directs me to say
she is not at home to Captain PART"
Had the servant deliberately slapped
his face, Donald could have been no
more thunderstruck.
Mrs. Wrenn betrayed no less per-
plexity.
Gregory! what did You say?'
Miss Patria instructed me to say.
Mrs. Wrenn. she is not at home to
Captain Parr."
The footman withdrew, murmuring
sympatheticalay.
"But, Donald" Mrs. Wrenn insisted,
I'm sure he must have misunderstood.
I'll run up at once and see Patria my
SELF"
"Please, no, Mrs. Wrenn. Gregory's
an intelligent fellow. Patria is doubt
less out Of temper with me for failing
to catch the boat yesterday"
In point Of fact, Parr hardly knew
what he was saying or what he heard.
Overriding the objections Of Rodney
and his mother, he strobe from the
house, threw himself on the back Of
his horse, and rode away in . state Of
daxe.
It needed long, hard ride to weary
PARIS emotions to seminumbness. He
brought back q horse sadly tagged and
lathered.
Now Donald Parr was never one to
wear his heart on his sleeve. Toward
mid-afternoon he changed to white
flannels, stiffened his upper lip and
sought the Casino, outwardly a man
with mind serene and carefree temper.
Finding nobody of his circle of &C
Quaintances at the CasinO-the hour

of efficiency as will enable it to con,

Our good friend of the Aberdeen
News, for whose judgment The Sat
urday News entertains high respect,
joins in the clamor for enforced mill,
tary training on the part Of America
and the American youth.
OF course, under existing condi'
tons, there is great need of such
training, but we cannot lend encour-
agement to the idea that America
ought to proceed forthwith to provide
a permanent system of militarism.
Let us await the result of this terrible
war before fastening upon ourselves
that form of militarism, or eve a
semblance of it, against which Amer
lea and it's allies are struggling as
with the grip Of death.
1t is to be hoped that when this war
is concluded militarism will have been
abolished forever. If not, then the
world will be under the painful neces-
sity of continuing a policy which, for
six thousand years, has led straight
to war--a policy to destroy which
America entered this conflict.
Our Aberdeen contemporary adj
mits that it would not establish such
a military system as Germany has
maintained, for at would be impos-
sib1e in a republic such as the United
States. but it would favor enforced
military training of our youth, never
theless.
If we are going to train ourselves
for war, it would be the height*of
folly to do so only in a ~perfunctory
manner. Nothing is over fully done.
until it is well done. Halfway train
ing would be more of a curse than a
blessing, for it would foster the spirit
OF militarism without preparing to
cope with it.
II this war stops before the world
is ready for disarmament, let us pro-
coed to get ready for the next world
wide struggle, which is bound TO
come. Men who prepare to fight in
variabIy find some excuse for fight
ing. 1t has been so from the dawn of
history. It will be 81 until time is no
more.
But let US pray that when he pres
ent terrible conflict shall have been
brought to an end there will no long
er be need OF military training. Let
the nations disarm, and let there be
thereafter only a minimum of militar-
ism, SUFFICIENT to support an interna-
tional court Of arbitration, while the
world stands.
