Your true sailor is least of all things

most nothing he would not rather do

he prefers to show stern and even
forbidding exterior. He is doing a

One Germap military expert is now

One German military expert is now
holding up the retreat as a strategic
masterpiece meriting admiration. In
fact, the numbers and volubility of
the explanations of defeat show the
desperation of the German high COM
mand in such wild and futile at
tempts to bolster up the spirit of
the people. They are fast getting to
the point of proving that the nearer
the enemy gets to Berlin, the more
triumphant are their own splendid
forces.

NATIONAL PROFITS FROM WAR.

NATIONAL PROFITS FROM WAR.
Now that there is so much talk go.
ing aroma about Irofiteering, it is
worth ale examining how we stand
as a nation in this matter. According
to official statik-ics, our favorable
balance of trade since the war
began in August. 1914. has amounted
TO only little less than ten billions
OF dollars. That is a staggering sum,
and represents the profteering of the
nation on account of the war, says
Philadelphia Bulletin. 1t is true, we
generally had nice little balance to
our credit before the war. but nothing
to equal the figures quoted above.
Most of this profit has come from
enhanced prices and larger activities
on account of the war. BelIigerent
nations have bought munitions and
food, and neutral nations have
bought all sorts of wares. We have
done some buying, but on small
scale compared with our selling. AS
is well known. practically all stocks
and bonds of American corpora
tons have come home. We have paid
all our debts end have become rich.
The figures mentioned above are in
teresting because they are almost ex-
sctly equal to the amount we have
raised through Liberty loans this year.
If the war were to stop now, we
should have paid all costs from profits
in our foreign trade and have had
plenty to spare, for the actual cost of
the war so far is only about $6,000.-
100000, exclusive of almost as much
loaned to the allies.

That old robber alternative, "Your
money or your life," attains to an hon
Orable relation in these days, for that
alternative confronts every citizen and
gives to his life a profound meaning.
There is no man who can escape this
demand upon him. 1t is either one or
the other. He must offer his life to
his country or his money, or perhaps
10th. This is no halfway business.
The nation owns all Of man, what
ever he possesses, and all the strength
that he has. We have never before
alighted upon such times as we have
now; we have never before run up
against such a demand for sacrifices
rs confronts us now. This is not a
sentimental situation. The response
to II is not the waving of banners, or
The tumult of oratory, for it means
just what it says-your money or your
life.

The story of the italian lieutenant
who was snatched up and borne away
from a prison camp by an aviator
sounds like some of the romances
which highly imaginative writer's used
to write for the pure amusement of
their readers. But the facts develop
ing in this war only go to prove the
old truism that truth is stranger than
fiction, for imagination is surpassed
ty reality in its happenings.

Perhaps the rescue of Palestine
from the Turkish rule may connect it.
self later with the schemes for a
league of peace. A league ought to
have a capital and Palestine has so
many holy places already that another
place that is holy because it is the
capital of peace may strike popular
Imagination as appropriate. What
ever their precise political status, the
Jews in Palestine are sure to be a
force making for peace. They will
owe their existence as a nation to
British arms seconded by information
al agreement. they will be drawn from
nearly every country of the world,
and they will have the strongest of all
interests for not being drawn into the
vortex of international rivalries and
racial discord, writes ii. Sidebotham
n New Republic. If the league of
peace is to have a capital it will clear
~ be at home in Palestine.

The new Czecho-Slovak races have
become welded into nation by the
fiery and long-banked furnaces of their

In all parts of Lapland there is a
numerous class of poorer Lapps whose
herds of deer are too small to enable
them to live on the mountains or to
trust to them entirely for subsistence.

abound in the country. There are also
the Fishing or Coast Laps. These

The lying reports of shipyard fatali-
ties have resulted in making public the
real statistics of accidents, which prove
that shipyards are relatively safer to
work in than factories. One beneficial
effect of the general German propa-

object by bringing out the truth.

WAR HITS ST. VALENTINE.
High Cost Of Paper Gives Mars = Cinch
on Venus That Is Effective.

This is Saint Valentines day-the day,
which according to tradition, Romeo
should especially remember his Juliet
and the gay Lothario make most OF his
coquetry. 1t also is the day when the
man with the crouch has opportunity
to 'get even" with supposed enemies by
mailing satirically comic pictures. &C
companied by equally comic screeds in
rhyme but seldom in rhythm.
But today, Judging from the scanty
display in shops, there were, perhaps,
fewer valentines sent than since the day
when Dolly Madison is reported to have
saved the Constitution OF the United
States from the British invasion of Wash
ington. Mars set his iron heel upon
Venus and true love went a-begging
for lack of proper provender.
Valentines of the good old
fashioned fancy type, which could be
distended until fair perspective coulc
be had, were scarce. The postmen were
not heavily laden The ''comics" were
to be had in plenty, but were not MOTTO
ably improved over old form. The war
and high cost of paper and materials
gave good old Saint Valentine solar
plexus. But, like peace, the martyr
saint, and his day will come back. True
love is bound to find its way.
