THE EFFECT OF WAR
 UPON MATRIMONY
Philadelphia Public Ledger.)

War plays havoc with men. Deep thinkers are already discussing the ef- feet of a shortage upon the institution of matrimony and are even suggest ing polygamy as solution of the problem. One aspect of it which just new seems to concern many girls who have sweethearts at the front is whether love demands that they should marry these if they come home oip- pied. German efficiency is already en- gagged in a practical effort to meet this issue. An advertisement in a German newspaper. described as typical" of- fers wife and home to an injured sol dier on easy terms. The advertiser, who is 22, modestly says that she is mot bad-looking." She lays greater emphasis on other attractions. She has fourteen fowls on her farm. a large number in these day of. food scarcity, to say nothing of a pony, pigs, cows, two hams and some sausages now in process of curing" These attractions should be sufficient; but there are besides piano and flute, to make pleasant evening for music-loving

German household. Even life in war time should be agreeable in these cir cumstances.
 Nor is this all This sensible girl with all the materials of a successful Hausfrau at hand, does not seek to bind a prospective husband by any hard and fast promise. She has mo objection to a separation if after six months of married life incompatibility of character should manifest itself on either side" It would be cyncial to suggest that the large number of in- jured soldiers and the small numbR of girls who can offer them such ad- vantages gives here the best end of the bargain. She is doubtless moved simply by the generous desire to leave the man loophole of freedom. Why don't the men propose, E1amma?' The writer of that once familiar song lived in times when the women didn't pro- pose-at least directly. Is not this frank method of asking for what you want really the more excellent way! After the war husbands are sure to go up like other things.

"cANToNMENT" NOT NEW
(The Outlook.)

In connection with the comment on the word ''cantonment," a subscriber writes that the term was used by the United States Army at least as early as 1880. "Cantonment Leavenworth," "Cantonment Gibson" etc, are cited as thus used. Washington Irving in 1887, it may be remarked, used the word as if it were well established, All hands now set to work to prepare winter cantOnment"

THE LIBERTY MOTOR IN ACTION.

The practical demonstration of the Liberty motor given
on Monday between Langley Field in Virginia and Nine
OLA L. L. is worth the results of several factory inquiries
either into its merits it's defects attached to
heavy army apane designed not for speed but to
loads of bombs But it made the distance of 325 miles in
three hours and fifteen minutes at the rate Of 100
miles an hour which not record for light planes but
close enough to be exceedingly gratifying. It drove
its heavy load along at this great speed moreover with
out missing stroke and with noteworthy absence of
vibration.
The army officers in charge of the fight not saying
much but it is apparent that they little better than
pleased with the performance AS to quality in practice
the Lbertay motor is evidently meeting the highest tests
What we want now is demonstration in quantity pro-
duction There has been disappointment along this ne
but it is rather the product of official overopmsm than
of anything else The situation at the production plants
should now be in shape speedily bring the output up to
the early schedules
