she has furnished France and Italy
with much coal and great quantities
of foodstuifs from overseas. The
motherland has assumed an immense
war debt, but it is in her expenditures
of lives that she has subjected herself
to the most grievous losses. Upward
of 100000 British soldiers have
given their lives in the last four
years. Last year alone her list Of
casualties-dead, wounded and mis-
sing-aggregated 100000 Her dona-
ton of men to the Allied cause ex-

population she has given nearly three
times as many men as Canada: If
Canada had done as much it would
have 120,0 900 dead. Even as it is, half
Of the men in the Canadian Army
were horn in Great Britain. If the
United States ever equals Britain's

Let Public Works Take Up the Slack

Each day that labor is unemployed
there is an economic loss to the COM
munity Every man not employed is
either a public charge or an idle pro-
ducing unit, and since it is certain
that return to peace basis will take
some time, public works should alb
sorb labor as fast as possible, even
under, conditions which might seem
uneconomical on account of high
wage scales and high prices of mater
ials. Even if the public pays a great
Ell price for public improvements, it
prevents the economic loss due to idle
man-power If, to prevent unemploy-
rnent, the army is demobilized slowly,
the public. pays for the maintenance
of the soldiers. 1t would be better
to demobilize as promptly as the mill
tary situation permits, increasing the
amount of public work to such an
extent as to prevent unemployment.
Such course would mean permanent
and substantial returns for the money
spent, whereas the maintenance of
men. in camp after the military nee
cssity ceases is a dead loss.-Engin-
eering News Record. .s .v

Ten-cent Christmas Trees

Have you ever gotten acquainted
with the little ten-cent Christmas
trees? No; don't laugh! They
look crude enough in the store, per-
haps; but when trimmed with tinsel
and fitted with the little colored can
dies you ear buy for them, and hung
with any pretty tribes you may find
about the house or pick. up in a de-
partn1ent store, and when carried to
the room Of some lonely invalid OF
stranger, and lighted, they are the
jolhest and most Christmasy gifts in
the world. They are SO pretty, with
the candles burning and the tinsel
and gilded balls. aquiyerl And it is
such fun to take from them all the
funny and pretty toys hung thereL

PRESS COMMENT
League of Nations to Enforce
Peace

This great world-war has taught US
that the most urgent, the most neces-
sary, the most fundamentally religi-
Gus duty now before us, is the devils
ing and adopting of some method
other than war for settling the dis
putes that are bound to arise between
nations. Unless this can be done we
can never be sure that at any moment
the result of generations of preach
ing and teaching may not be con-
sumed in the fires of war.
The idea of league of nations is
no longer the mere vision of seers,
|. the. dream of prophets and the intel
iectual plaything of theorists. 1t is
today one of the most concrete and
unavoidable issues in the field of prac-

THE DEBT TO ENGLAND
What She Has Done for Civilization
in This War Told by a Canadian

England w i'll fight on until the last
Hun is subdued and the HohenZol-
lernS have been over thrown is the
statement of F. d. L. Smith, editor
of The Toronto Daily News, recently
back from the war zone. Mr. Smith
maintains that England has and still
is bearing the biggest part of the war
burden, end that but for the Grand
Fleet Germany would have triumphed
in the first few months and have
made secure the world domination
which the Kaiser had dreamed was
his. .s.
After four. years Of a continuous
cxhaustinE war lie says. Great
Britain maintains in the field larger
army than that furnished by any Of
her allies. Anyone who visits the
western front at the beginning of the
fifth year of the war r?ust be impress
sed with the extent to which North
western France has become {! British
country. English Sent les mount
guard in the towns of Calais and
Boulogne and along the country roads
far to the south and east British
troops are everywhere. Even in Rou-
en- and cities further south the Brit
ish khaki is more common than the
blue Of France. British airplancs,
British ammunition dumps, British
transports, British hospitals, line the
roads and occupy the fields of France
from the coast clear through TO a
line drawn north and south through
Paris.
Not only this. British armies also
uphold the allied cause in half score
Other. vital theatres of WARM Sib-
elia, in Mcsopotarnia, at Baku, on the
Thurman coast, on the Dvina river, in
German East Africa, Albania, pales-
tine, Italy and Saloniki.
"Thc British people have borne pa
tiently, with unequalled determination
the burden of two vast wars, the
one at sea and the other in many
widely separated theatres on land.
Since the beginning of the war 100
enemy submarines have been sunk,
most Of them by the British. One
and half million men are occupied
today in manning and maintaining the
British navy and Merchant Marine.
Britain has lost 3,817, 900 tons of her
precious shipping The. other allies
and neutrals have gained 1,208,000
tons. She cannot replace her tonnage
sunk for two reasons-she is using
her manpowcr to the utmost, not for
her own interests, but in the common
| cause. In her shipbuilding yards two
! ffths of her labor and machinery are
required for repair work done as
much for her allies as for herself. Yet
in four years by an almost superhu-
man effort she has increased the
] strength Of her navy by so per cent.
This means that in spite of all other
! calls she has, during four years of
! war strain, constructed the second
i largest navy in the world that is a
new navy larger than any other save
! her original feet.
! Britain financed all her allies until
] the United States came into the war
She has supplied France, Italy and
the United States, to say nothing OF
Russia Dric1. to the revolution, with a
great proportion of their guns, NUM-,
tons, rifles, uniforms, and airplanes
Besides supplying coal for her own
navy, merchant marine, and industries
