War has its anomalies not less pro-
nounced than peace. One of them is
that Germany. withouk a flag or a ship
at sea, is stillf"the drunken sailor" of
the world. Continuing evidences of
JunkeF prodigality in spending the
money Of a9beleagured and afflicted
people may not even have reached
their climax in the revelation of the
price paid for The New York Evening
Mail. Before that revelation was
made we'll accredited stories of huge

nails in Mexico and other Spanish
American countries were appearing.
The Mail had long been a newspaper
Of character and ability. Perhaps the
price paid for it was not excessive.
But the dream Of converting its read
ers to pro-Germaniem was not far
from madness.
Everywhere>in the world the phrase
spending money like q drunken sail
or" implies, one who parts with; finan-'
cial resources with little or no regard
for an equivalent value received. The
sailor must have lost his wits, how
ev9r, before beginning a prodigal ca
reer ashore. 1t is a rule among e
men to, buy whatever they may need

again. before beginning to paint the
