THE OLD FASHIONED WOODEN WALK. Only the rassing generation remembers it; thos'j of the present, never knew the varied delight of it! A wooden sidewalk to ti em is just two words and nothing more. To its who glory in the things of a bygone day the old wooden sidewalk has its fondest memories; an inanimate thing, yet blessed with sweetest recollections. When it was nw the sun blistered it into piney fracracre. The barefoot lad dodged it for it was often ungodly hot and when you stepped on the sizzling pitch spot with a bare foot that had a large palpitating stone bruisv on it the pain was as exquisite as it was excruciating, especially hen father was gently insisting; on .our immediate presence in the wood shed. You could not have your wi's a-wool-gat hering when you trod the obi K'.shkmed w alk for if it was, aged, -it wss decrepit. If mo and there a nail had worked loose and where those sly- nails lurked they just seemed to catch your toe and bring you u Mother Earth without the last vos:ire of pride i;nd diauity. And fn tip? time of the year particularly those nails were particular iy aggravating. You would gather up a nke shove! of snow with all preparation for a mighty heave when the mill would c.-.uh lire tip of the shovel and spoil your effort. With the ambitiously-rising tWil would also come the loose board, and those who have never rnet ilt sifiiy olvaf"tf board in t Vie nose have missed something on' of lif . The old ooden sidewalk! Along it the babe wavered with r.nccrtain patter o little feet. Troop of boy t. and girls chattered a loot; it to .school. Over it a-Sunday squeaked th n w .Loe.- as the church bell called to the service ,,f the Master, it groaned beneath the leaps of the volunteer firemen when the tempestuous mid-night fire alarm sounded. The sedate spinster minced along it and the hurrying doctor with his ca.-e of fat pills on his errand to ur "t the stork made it feet bis tietei mined tre.ol. Then there was the boy hood joy of losing a penny down a tack in '.be walk and fishing for it. The wooden sidewalk " the mooting place for the j?anes rnd clan o ",yheed.

FIFTY CENT PREPAREDNESS. Mr. McAdoo boasts to the Investment Bankers' "Association that war expenditures are barely more than lrfy per cent of the estimate s. And, by the same token, he may have added, our measure of preparedness is only about fifty per cent of what is should be in view of what Congress has done in providing money. Though we have boards and commissions and committees of all kinds, though we l ave priority rules and Ojmmandccrin. authority and price nxinst and all that, the fact remains that the army and the fleet are not ce!tjns tire nquipment which they need. The money which Mr. McAdoo intimates is being saved is really being wasted. In the Treasury it does nobody any good. Properly expended, jt wnl make our military and navel establishments e rial to the job which they have to do.

A TERRIBLE BLIZZARD EXPERIENCE

A 10 RIAL development in war will, when peace comes, leave for commercial use a vast fleet and a concourse of (rained men who would not be available otherwise. Look for commercial national and transcontinental freight and passenger lines within the decade. WAR may have its bad points, but i is bringing industrial cohesion, price reeulan'on, temperance, equal rights for w omen, stimulated food product ion. and mak itiK us able to defend ourselves.
