The Folly of It All

appropriations, as well as those for the
state university and its several
branches since the Civil war. It was
magnificent war vessel and when 1t
was built had no superior on the sea.
But it never fired gun in actual war,
and now it is out of commission and
ready for the junk pile The Iowa is

recently been used as target for
bombing planes. The Germans spent
years and millions of German money
in building up great war fleet which
never met the enemy but once and then
was glad to scurry back to its safe
home harbors. It came out once more
in solemn procession under convoy or
British and American ships to Scapa
Flow, where 1t was scuttled and sunk
by its own men to prevent its falling
into enemy's hands. 1t was an act for

none too much. The same eorrespon-

any one may find, would pay the
