The war department has designated
the part the United States had in the
world conflict as the "War OF 1917
So far as official circles are concerned
this settles the matter But it is an.
other question as to whether the name
viii be used by the people generally.
Time alone will answer that, There
never has been any agreement on a
name for the conflict Some call 1t the
"Wir of Nations" while others prefer
the World War" In the midst Of
many especially those who took an
active part in the fighting, it simply is
"'fhe War and probably will remain
thot throughout their lives, Just as
many veterans of the Civil war knew
that conflict by no other name than
The War" The chief weakness of
the name WAR of 1917" is that 1t IS
not comprehensive. says Buffalo News.
The name should cover the entire con.
tiict Either "Worid War" or the "War

MIGHT OF MEN.

When a ship like the Titanic strikes
an iceberg we are reminded OF the i'm
potence of man pitted against the
might Of nature. And this is good for
us. But there is another side TO the
picture. In 1900 a mighty hurricane
almost destroyed Galveston, Tex, tax

neither gave up trying 10 be = city nor
1isregarded the warning. 1t went to
work and built a seawall five miles
long. The other day hurricane as
severe as that of two decades ago
swept the region. For time there
was two or three feet Of water on
some Of Galvestons streets and that
WAS an Tho mind OF man and the
work Of man had averted the power OF
nature to do harm. OF such exploits
is our race capable, says Milwaukee
Journal. For five years we have dwelt
only ON its power 10 work devastation.
ON the millions OF lives and mighty
sums devoted to destruction. We turn
our thoughts to what man can do and
find this great thing that Galveston
accomplished with little S2,000,00O--
city saved at the cost Of less thanan
hour OF war to this nation. Shall we
choose mans destruction or his ability
TO build UP as the standard OF the
future?
