historically true that in early Japan

For centuries, he says, gold had little

Vastness OF Mexico.

It cannot be reiterated too often
that Mexico is vast country.
Mexico extends in length over two
thousand miles, or is as long as from
Iceland to Africa. 1t measures a thou
sand miles across the widest area. 1t
is vast, it contains every climate from
tropical to northern; it has huge noun
tains, some of the greatest volcanoes
in the world; and some of the largest
rivers are to be found in the south,
although water is lacking in the north.
The north is fiat and hideous, the
south beautiful and mountainous.
Mexico produces every class of ore and
every form Of agriculture and some of
the most picturesque and beautiful old
Spanish towns in the world remain
from the days when they were built
by COrtez in 1919.
One cannot help being struck with
the contrast between the two coasts.

on the Gulf (Atlantic) everything Is

NOTHING LEFT TO CHANCE
Advance Of American Divisions at San
Mihiel Had Been Planned With
Elaborate Care.

In modern warfare a mans head is
his chief asset, writes Duke Bolivar in
Boys Life. You all know that the
st. Mihiel salient, accomplishing 152
square miles of territory and 20 viii
lagos, was taken by the Americans.
Did you know 1t was done by head
work? Elaborate plans were made in
advance and given out wholesale to
the troops. One hundred thousand
maps, covering minute details of the
country, including natural defenses,
and how 1t was manned by the enemy,
were distributed, plus 10000 photo
graphs, scattered among officers Of the
artillery and infantry. Five thousand
miles Of telephone wire and 5000 in
struments were employed, and this
elaborate system kept up with the ad-
vance Of the army. BY this service
Ranking troops could telephone their
position back to the artillery. The tel
ephone business Of a city Of 100000
could have been handled by this equip
ment in whose operation 10000 men
were engaged. Thousands Of carrier
pigeons aided the signal corps. Ex.
tensive hospital facilities, 1900 trucks,
miles Of railroad, were provided for
this big military operation, and 10000
feet Of movie film were exposed, so all
the soldiers had to DO was to fight.

ONE GOOD THING FROM WAR
cocone Nut, Hitherto Considered Only

Gle Of Commerce.

Before the war the cocone. which
grows freely in the Southern Ameri-
cas-, on large trees of the palm fam
lily, was literally such a hard nut to
crack that its vegetable oil had no
place in commerce, and the tree was
known chiefly as a botheration to
banana planters when they wished to
enlarge their plantations. Eighteen
hundred pounds pressure is required
to crack the cocone nut, and there was
no machinery for doing 1t. Then gov
eminent experts said that nothing else
In the world would provide such good
carbon for gas masks as the cocone
nut, and the United States financed
the creation of machinery for crack
ing II, thus starting a new and i'm
portant industry. Hereafter it will
be well worth while breaking the shells
for the vegetable oil inside them, val
liable for cooking, lighting. and the
making Of nut butter; and the shells,
happily no longer needed for masks.
can be used as fuel or IN the manufac-
ture of gas. And so, out Of an effort
to prevent the expansion of autocracy
by conquest, the Southern Americas
find opportunity to expand by COM

kind Have Been Settled by the
Worlds Greatest Conflicts.

Wars are milestones. Victories set
up tablets, upon which are inscribed
the principles that have been vindi-
Gated.
The battle of Marston Moor de-
stroyed feudalism, overthrow the doc
trine of the divine right of kings, gave
England an elective parliament, Rev.
DR.. Newell Dwight Hills said in SER
mon reported in the Brooklyn Eagle.
The French revolution destroyed
French autocracy, and gave the people
the right of selfdetermination.
The war of 1776 was the last civil
war of Great Britain-a war of good
section of the English people against
the bad section Of Great Britain which
had enthroned a crazy German king
George III.
The war of 1861 established on sure
foundations the republic, the last best
hope of man, and indicated industrial
democracy without regard to color.
The war of 1914 has settled certain
things for all time. War shall be no
more! Hereafter disputes between
races shall be settled by an interna-
tional supreme court. Militarism shall
be no MOREOVER again shall the peo-
pies resources be wasted in piling up
munitions, nor the man in the furrow
carry a soldier upon his back. Inter-
national treaties hereafter shall be
sacred Alas for tho npyt nation that
counts its written pledge a scrap of
paper and defies international law!
The small races and peoples are free!
No big bully nation like Germany can
