COSTS LESS TO KILL
THAN DOES TO LIVE

The cost of almost every necessity of
modern life has climbed steadily since
the first day of the world war. There
is. however. one striking exception.
The United States is now paying about
s. for every man who is drafted for the
national army. Prior to the war it
cost this country five times that much
to recruit a soldier. These figures do
not, of course, take into consideration
the ultimate cost of training and equip
ping Americas fighting men, but they
are reflected in the subsequent eX-

United States $24.4S. This rate dropped
to $19.14 in 1915 and rose to s2S95 in
1916 The operation of the draft law
with its tremendous increase in re-

structed music box. Delicate lamps
hang from the ceiling, with globes no
larger than a walnut while beautiful
chandeliers decorate the ceiling cor

Rugs of the size used in most homes
for reception hall decoration fill the

toward the front sound like top music

small piece of steel that hangs beside
them.
Regular services are held in the
church. Convalescents, hospital en-

to be in the hospital on Sundays OF

quite often there is not room TO seat
them all and they stand around the
small door leading inside, hats and
wraps in hand. until the services are
ever.
There is no regular pastor there.

NEW YORK BOASTS
SMALLEST CHURCH
(NeW York Herald. }


A tiny church, fully appointed and
so small it appears as if ii We're built
for dolls, has been discovered by a re ?
porter for the Herald. 1t is furnished
with pews to seat forty. And one may
take four long steps and cover the dis
tanCe between the altar and the en-
trance. It is the St. Laurence church,
atop the st. Laurence hospital, 457
West one Hundred and Sixty third
street
Standing in the miniature place of
worship yesterday a nurse explained
how and why it had been built. AS
her arms swept from one side to the
other it looked as if her very finger
tips would brush the walls and the cell
ing came perilOusly near scraping her
headdress. Small symbols of the jour
hey of Christ up the mount to where
He was crucified adorn the front part
of the church, and they are so small
that one must walk close to read the
inscriptions. The windows are lettered,
too, but with print scarcely legible
more than five feet away.
An organ is in one corner. 1t is
three feet high, and the strains from
it, as it accompanies the choir of four.
