The latest official figures put the number of enlisted mon in the armies of the United States at 136OOO0 This is the force that has grown in eight months out of an army that on April 1 numbered only 10000 men.
 Most of them are still in the train ing camps. Many of them are not yet disciplined troops, fully equipped and armed for battle.
 But there they are, 1.3GO,OO0 of them, already one. of the. biggest factors Hindenburg is reckoning with for the campaign of 1918
 To lead them there. are over S0.0O0 officers. When, the graduates of the second training camp get their first orders the number will be over 1OO,OOO-as many officers as there were privates nine months ago.
 The whole military esta ablshment, with the marines and the auxiliary forces thrown in, numbers d million and a half. The expansion that has taken place is as if Grand Rapids had grown in eight months to be vir- tually as big as, Philad delphia.
 Since XerXes led his million and a half of assorted Asiatics across the Hellespont, Europe has seen many a campaign conducted on a grand scale American battles have been fought as stubbornly but with smaller forces engaged There were 2;7O0,0OO en- listments in the Federal army in the Civil war. But many of this number were -enlistments. The highest total engaged at any one time was reached in the last year of the war On March 31, 1865, the Union army comprised 9SOOOO men,
 For the Spanish war an army of 275,0 was raised. Only 6O,0OO saw service.
 The present American army is the largest armed force the Western Hemisphere has ever seen--,nless the Mound Builders were more numerous and pugnacious than we have any reason to believe they were. If the whole army could be gathered to- gether today and lined up in a solid infantry column, four abreast, it would reach across Ohio from Cincin- natl to Toledo and on to the Michigan line
 A million and a half of men, II is as if the entire population Of the State of South Carolina, or of the States of Nebraska and Wyoming put women and children were suddenly to be converted into young men clad in olive drab and or ganized into companies and bat talions.
 When Great Britain entered the war it was with a much smaller army. The first eNpcditiOnary force mum bered barely hundred d thousand. The Kaiser called it a rNntemptible little army. Yet without it's work at Mons, Paris might have fallen. One hundred thousand and the encourage ment they brought to tho French, were enough to avert defeat in the first year of the war.
 It is the hope of the Allies that an- other new force, ten or twelve times as great will be enough in the fourth year of the war to ensure victory.
 If it is not enough. America has the men and the machinery to make l a greater effort.

BARON De LA WAR;

A portrait Of Thomas West, twelfth
Baron de la War;, for whom this State
was named, has been presented to the

colonization schemes in America, and
In 1903 was appointed for life COVER
nor and captain general in Virginia
On one OF his voyages he was driven
by storm into the river now called
the Delaware. What was no doubt
then considered a misfortune of the
voyage led to the baron's name being
forever perpetuated in a State and
river and bay. The State, the first in
the country by priority, in ratifying
the federal constitution.
One OF the baron's descendants
Gilbert George Reginald Sackville-
West. who became eighth Earl de la
War;, visited the country in 1915 and
was entertained by Governor Miller
while on a VISIT to this city On his
return to England he forwarded Ia
Governor Miller a copy OF the pOr-
trait OF his ancestor The original
portrait is in the house of rady de la
War;, In Sussex, England The por-
trat in the State House at Dover was
copied from the one that hangs IN In
dependence Hall. Philadelphia. but
the curator suggested that the COPY
be painted in armor instead OF robes
so as to be more in harmony with the
early part Of the seventeenth CEN
