UNIVERSAL TRAINING

The advocates of universal military
training for the future would get a
more respectful hearing If they left out
the military" The majority of
Americans, civilians and soldiers alike,
are not much interested at present in
the development and maintenance OF
great armies hereafter. They think,
rightly or wrongly, that the war has
ended that sort of thing, and we shall
have no need OF millions of trained
fighters.
Al the same time, there is a stronger
feeling than ever before for public
service and discipline. and better APP
probation OF the wholesome physical
and moral effects that come as by
products of the military life under
American conditions. IL might be pos
sibIe TO preserve these benefits, and
pass them along to our boys as they
reach military age. without preserving
the less pleasant and less desirable
things usually associated with strictly
military life.
II there is to be no more trench
digging or bayonet-fighting. why teach
boys to dig trenches and fight with
bayonets? Teach them more practical
things, for the productive work of
peace rather than the destructive work
Of war Something on the Boy Scout
plan, but on a mans scale So the
ordinary citizen argues; and he is
probably right about it,
We have all the cantonments, avia-
ton fields. etc. What are we going to
do with them? Dismantle most of
them, leaving only enough to take care
of small standing army? 1t seems a
pity. Could they not be adapted to
some new system of instruction which
would take all our young men for a
short period and make them sturdy,
straight, self-reliant and loyal Ameri-
cans, as our army camps have done,
while teaching them nothing that will
not be useful in peaceful world?
They would naturally get many of
the military fundamentals. so that If
men were wanted for the army at any
time they would provide better ma
terial than ever.

THE DEADLIEsT GAS

II develops that at the time the arm
istice was signed the United States had
just begun quantity production of a
poison gas 20 times as deadly as the
famous German mustard gas" A
plant at Willoughby. o., was ready to
turn out twenty tons OF il day. This
"methyl." as the new gas is called, is
said to be so powerful that the Ger
man gas masks would have been no
protection against II whatever. 1t
would have meant instantaneous
death to every creature breathing it,
within a few weeks this dreadful
weapon would have been in use by the
American armies. If other means had
failed. it would have won a quick vic
tory by annihilating the enemy The
Germans would have had to flee I'M
resistingly, or the Allies would have
advanced to the Rhine over an area
swept bare by fog of death 1t would
have been six months before the
enemy could have prepared to retail
ate BY that time there would have
been no enemy.
II would have been the logical and
just result of the introduction of
poison gas by the Germans. along with
their other war harbarities They
would have been destroyed by the
same hideous means they chose for
the destruction Of their unsuspecting
foes
We may rejoice. however. from mo-
tives of humanity, that this potent
poison never came into use-that it
was possible to end the war without
it, And as a just peace appears, the
hope may be expressed that it will
never be used at ALL Certainly so
terrible a means of slaughter should
never be left in private hands or even
entrusted 10 the exclusive possession
of any nation
Its use by one nation against an
other should be sternly forbidden BY
international law. If the manufacture
of -methyl" for military purposes is to
be permitted at all. it should be only
for official use by League of Nations.

WHAT THE SCRIPTURES SAY

Beloved. when l gave all diligence
to write unto you of the common sal
walton. it was needful for me to write
unto you, and exhort you that We
should earnestly contend for the faith
which was once delivered unto the
saints.
For there were certain men crept in
unawares, who were before of old or
dained 10 this condemnation, ungodly
men, turning the grace of our God into
lasciviousness. and denying the only
Lord God. and our Lord Jesus Christ.
Jude 1:3, f.
For this is good and acceptable in
the sight of God our Saviour:
Who will have all men to be saved,
and to come unto the knowledge of the
truth.
For there is one God, and one medi-
tator between God and men, the man
Christ Jesus;
Who gave himself a ransom for all,
to be testified in due time.-1 Timothy

NO MORE SUGAR RATION

The domestic sugar market Is now
thrown wide open. The food admin
istration has announced the abolition
OF sugar cards on and after December
!. Every housewife may now buy as
much sugar as her grocer is able to
supply her: and every grocer is al
lowed to sell his customers all he can
get. without keepink tabs on his
sales.
This is not a general invitation from
the government for every family to
start an orgy OF sugar-intoxicaiion
The food administration politely ex-
presses its expectation that consum-
ers will restrict their purchases TO
four pounds apiece per month. and
that public eating places will use no
more than four pounds for each 80
meals served. This is the allowance
recently announced to become effective
December 1. The only change is that
the restriction instead of being COM
pulsory is now left to the conscience
OF the consumer.
There ought not to be any difficulty
about avoiding excess. in view of the
real need Of sugar that still exists in
most parts of the world. We got along
fairly we'll with two pounds of sugar
a month. Surely we can get along now
with four. even during the holiday sea-
