 She stood breast-high amid the corn, Clasped by the golden light of morn, Like the sweetheart of the sun, Who many glowing kiss had won. On her cheek an autumn flush Deeply ripened-such blush. In the midst of brown was born Like red poppies grown with corn. And her hat, with shady brim, Made her tressy forehead dim; Thus she stood amid the stocks, Praising God with sweetest looks.

THE LESSON.

Lord Northcliffe is a firm believer in being prepared. After what he has seen Great Britain go through he should know. Because of being un- prepared England for many years to come must pay annually more than hundred million dollars. Had Great
 Britain's army been a match for that
 of Germany's at the outset, this price
 would not have to be paid Probably
 Germany would never have wished to
 enter a war 50 readily had England
 been prepared, Here then is . lesson
 for America.
 The great English editor says there
 is some form of preparedness which
 can be quickly attained and for which
 the American temperament Is entire
 ly suitable. Two of the successes of
 the war have been the aeroplane and
 the destroyer. The American air. men with the French and British armies have proved that this individ- uaf form of fighting is particularly suited to the American people. If air schools are started in localities as ,, free from wind and gales as possible. flying men can be quickly trained
 Some of the best in the present wa, are mere boys, from seventeen to twenty-two. Models of the lates, 1 British and French aeroplanes are easily gotten and our unrivaled manu.
 featuring facilities could multiply en- zines by the thousand.
 i The British navy believes that tho 1 work of our naval oh1cers and destroy.
 CTS Is of first quality. The English 1 people. while admiripg certain qual. ities of German seamanship, consid. CT that their destroyer work lacks in. | dividuality, quickness, and aggressive. ness The destroyer is one of the best l enemies of the submarine, and Is also
 useful in many other ways. Under pressure of war. complete destroyer are turned out in England in a few months. As Lord Northcliffe points l out, we have steel in abundance and
 have excellent mechanics. There 1, no reason why we should not multiply 1 by hundreds our destroyer neet. This. however, is not a part of pre- { paredness. Our men at the war Col l lege are studying the needs of this na : l ton. When these needs are pointed out they must be taken care of, unless the United States wants to suffer as England has suffered. The example Is there free for our taking. It is cheaper to learn in this way than by our own experience.
