many, at cost of which, considering
the time and energy expended each
wear in connection with the training OF
her millions of soldiers, amounted to
many billions of dollars, built up a
huge war machine which she believed
to be invincible; however, within a
period of but eighteen months Amer
lea, though utterly unprepared for war,
constructed and transported over seas
a war force which demonstrated its
superiority in every way over the Ger
man war machine and dealt that ma
chine blow which caused its final de-
feat. AS a result Germany now knows,
and the whole world ought to know,
that elaborate advance war prepare
tions are merely the worst sort of
wasted human energy.

Control Your conduct.

The worst kind of unhappiness, as
well as the greatest amount of it,
comes from CUR conduct to each other.
If our conduct, therefore, were under
the control of kindness, it would be
nearly the opposite of what it is, and
SO the state of the world would be
almost reversed. We are for the most
part unhappy because the world is an
unkind world. But the world Ia only
unkind for the lack of kindness in the
individuals who compose it.-Fred-
srick William Taber.

ONE AT LEAST WAS ALIVE
Small Boy Evidently Had Taken Dig
nified Justices for Kind of Wax
works Exhibition.

Commenting before the Milwaukee
Press club on the popular idea con-
corning judicial dignity and the sup
posed aloofness of judges, Justice
Martin B. Rosenberg of the Wiscon-
sin supreme court, claimed that it is
the public who hold aloof from the
Judges.
''Friends with whom I was very in
Innate before took my supreme court
duties, became distant soon after" he
said. 81 found 1t necessary to go even
more than half way to re-establish our
old relations"
Judicial dignity, especially as seen
in the supreme court, came in for the
following story:
Hundreds of visitors daily visit the
supreme court chambers to look us
over. We feel like the animals in your
Milwaukee zoo. One day, while cases
were being argued, a fly alighted on
the forehead of one of the justices, all
of whom were sitting still unmoved
as the arguments were being made.
The justice finally raised his hand and
brushed the pestiferOus insect away.
"a small boy among the spectators
leaned over and in a hoarse whisper
said: Look, pa, one of 'em's alive !"
