There are few of us who can realize
the stupendous significance OF such
sum as s7,000,OO0,0O0, the war budget
recently voted by Congress. A rel-
able statistician has volunteered a few
comparisons.
There are almost as many dollars IN
? OOO 600 600 as there are seconds in
222 years.
Seven billion dollars in gold coin
weighs 13,440 tons and would load
1900 cars each with $4,000 pounds and
make a solid train 13 miles long.
At IS an acre this vast sum would
pay for every acre of land in continent
tai United States.
Seven billion dollars in dollar green
backs end to end would go around the
earth at the equator nearly "a times.
Seven billion dollars in silver DOL
lars stacked in one pile would make a
pile 1876 miles high and it would take
the present U. S. mint working day
and night 224 years to coin them.
Let us look at it horizontally. 7,OOO,.
100000 miles for every dollar. A rifle
bullet has speed of a mile a second,
yet at this great velocity it would re-
quire almost 444 years to cover the
distance. 81
This sum bears interest at 81 per
cent, and the interest is $245,000 900
a year, nearly $500 minute-just in
terest!

The juniors entertained the seniors

The meeting of the Minnesota Confer

tomobiles were seen on and about the
church premises. In the afternoon
the corner stone was laid for the Old
Peoples home at Chisago City, where
an equally great crowd was in atteno.
ance. The meeting was inspiring and

THE GIRL OF TODAY

They say she's bond slave to fashion,
whose time with frivolity's fraught,
That clothes are her mightiest passion,
and pleasure her ultimate thought,
They say she's a dodger of duty, a
butterfly, minus the wings,
Who cannot discover the beauty in
sober and serious things.
They blush at her manners, they quar-
rel with all of her words and her
deeds,
They call >her "unsexed and Immoral"
and shudder at books that she reads,
They view her with deep perturbation
wherever she bides or she roams,
They fear for the fate of the nation
when she shall be ruling it's homes
But 10, when the time comes to render
her service, she suddenly proves,
A woman, sweet-natured and tender,
who carries, wherever she moves,
A heart that is throbbingly human,
and loyal and true to the last, .
In brief, she's as much of a woman, as
those of the glorious past"
-Berton Braley.
