Few Reminders Of Raids.

Studious lovers Of London will not
fail to notice how swiftly, true TO her
marvellous gift of eternal youth, she is
obliterating every trace Of the air raid
period as If IL had never been. Some
Of the scars made by enemy bombs
still remain, as in the wholesale mar
ket in Coyeut Garden, but they might
pass as unnoticed as the effects of re-
cent fires which are always to be
found in the great city. Notices of the
air raid shelters are, however, already
hard TO find an odd one may be dis

MYSTERY OF LIFE
Who Knows Where It Comes
From or What II Is?
Marked Difference Between Mankind
and the Wild Things, in Their View
Of Desth-Lower Animals Lit
tie Impressed.

Some folks talk about "the mystery
of liTe," and it is as good way as any
g. speak of II. For. truth Is, nobody
seems to know anything about life.
Yet everything pays more attention TO
living than to anything else. prac-
tically every motive in the world.
among the Wild things. is TO live.
Not even man, with all his knowl-
edge. knows where life comes from, or
what 1t is. George +. Burba writes in
the Columbus Dispatch.
1t is just the opposite of death, he
will tell you; one either lives or dies.
IL he is living, the body is in certain
condition. The blood flows through
the veins. The heart beats. The body
is warm. One is conscious OF that
which goes on about him. The very
opposite is true when a thing is dead,
whether the thing is a man or 4 dog
or bird or fish. But the why Of it
all--nobody understands that.
The wild things strive with all their
might TO escape death, but they pay
little attention to the dead things about
them. IL doesn't seem 10 make any
Impression upon an animal TO run up
on another animal that is dead, out in
the woods. They fear death. but they
DO not respect the dead, nor show any
emotion in the presence of DEATH
They do not know what it is--ihat is
they do not know that the dead crea.
ture they encounter in the woods Is
dead and done for. II it is something
they want 10 deyour, they devour IL
IL IL IL not, they pass on without pay
ing much attention to 1t.
Death IS more OF mystery TO man.
That Is, 1t impresseS him TO great
er extcnt. lie thinks more of it. lie
I tries no harder TO live than do the Wild
things, but there is something in con-
nection with the presence OF IA dead
! creature that impresses human be-
ing. This IL especially true il one en-
counters death out In the fields or
woods. Tramping through forest. and
coming suddenly upon a dead animal,
one pauses in contemplation Of the
mystery before him. Yesterday

ont notion unconscious he lies there
like a log rottlng IN the elements. Can
this be tho stag Of yesterdays Is the
thing called life all he needs today to
arouse him from the slumber--to
smooth his splendid coat, to bring the
CLEAN of light into the eye, 10 give
speed TO the limbs? Then, whence the
thing called life? Or, from whence did
1t come in the beginning?
Thus do We mediate and marvel
at the mystery of life and death when
we are in the presence of death--espe-
cially If we encounter It in the great
shadows of the forest--out where there
is nothing to interrupt US. out where
reigns that which gives life and which

A GREAT LOAN
LOOKS SMALLER
The Five Billions at $50 Apiece
Should Be Compared With
What the Kaiser Wanted.

Preparations are already making for
the Fifth Liberty Loan. which the peo
pie OF he United States will be asked
to make toward the world war. 1t will
come in the spring. probably some
lime carly in April.
The total amount will probably be
somewhere near the size OF the Fourth
Loan. A five billion dollar total looks
large. hut it does not look as large
as il did in 1917 to people 1OO,00o,OoO
strong who have learned to save and
lend to The government.
When this Loan looks insignificant
and puny, even il il is put on top OF
all the loans which preceded II, is
when II is compared side by side with
the billions Germany would have de
manded of America II the Kaiser had
won the war
This is the way to compare the two
possible endings of the war. Put one
beside the other, the two chances of
paying for the cost OF the world war
which the people OF this country had
before them one year ago.
The United States has come into
victory and peace One of the great
est forces it employed to win victory
was the great fund which the people
put into its hands to fight for civiliza-
ton.
But the Government has not yet
financed the needs of the last chapter
OF effort. Three months hence it will
ask for loan with which to accom-.
pllsh this work II will call in the
Fifth Loan for money to pay the ex.
! penses of peace and reconstruction.
! The men aud women of the country
| who must furnish the funds for the
Fifth Loan are doubly blessed. They

won by the war and the bonds OF the
