review of our national debt will
prove to the public the necessity of
disarmament In 1921 our national
budget is approximately $4,000, 100000
of which over so per cent is for past
or future wars. The combined ap-
preparations for army and navy have
grown from 1915, 100000 in 1914 to
$1,000, 900 in 1921. For 1922 fur
Their increases are proposed. The
drain upon the resources of the ma
ton, coming as it does three years af-
ter the war, is an alarming and dis
heartening thing. 1t holds back the
restoration of normal conditions, is
convincing proof of the absolute nee
essity of disarmament.
In time past our battleships ranged
the sea alone. Then came destroyers
and submarines to accompany them.
Now, comes aviators with aerial
fleets to attack or guard the ships

Flute Hiahlx Esteemed

Among the ancient Greeks, flute
playing was looked upon as the fash
ionable pastime of the elite, and, con-
sequently, the instrument was consid-
erably improved by various players
from time to time, and flutes Of the
most careful and delicate workman
ship have been discovered and prove
this to have been the case.
From Greece, the instrument APP
pears to have been adopted by the
Romans who, indeed, borrowed all
that was beautiful in Greek art; and
we learn from Tacltus that even the
Emperor Nero himself, did not dis
dain the drudgery of practice. With
Roman conquests came also the adop-
ton Of Roman manners and art.
Hence the instrument spread through
out the civilized world and its use be
came common.

Psychology Of LAUGHTER.

In the psychology of laughter one
traces the development of humor
through its many stages, showing the
close relation between the appreci-
alton of the tribe and the enjoyment
of the nursery. Children laugh some,
what in the manner of savages. not
being able, because of their limited
experience, to see the subtle shades of
a joke that are only discernible in a
high type of mental development
Swift's 'Gulliver's Travels" has much
satire in it which the girl and boy
luckily cannot fathom; 1t takes a
sophisticated mind to understand It.
But the adventures among the Lilli-
putians and Brobdingnagians are class
les in the nursery. SO 1t is in the larg-
er aspects of laughter. The crowds
will respond to a coarser type Of hu-
NOR than the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
