The Greatest of Wars

Each of the belligerent European nations has

sealed up so securely all the avenues oi communication, accurate knowledge of the events and

battles in the stupendous conflict now going on

is almost impossible. In consequence mere is

nothing for outsiders to do except possess them-

spIvps in natience while what promises to be the

most awful war in the race's history hurls itself

to a conclusion. It seems safe to conclude that the struggle,

now definitely launched, must progress to a de

nouement: there can be no turning back, ihe die is cast and there is no telling how long hell mav reicrn in Europe. The probabilities are,

however, that the fighting can't last long. The nations have been preparing for this since Bismarck's time and, like pugilists, are trained up to the minute, prepared to throw all their forces at once into the conflict. There will be no long delays or sparring for time. The furies and flames of conflict have been at work beneath the surface for a generation and now that they are breaking through the crust will soon spend themselves. It is a great mistake to suppose the "insult to Austria" by Servia is the "cause" of the war. That was merely the point at which the lightning struck. The real cause of the struggle is

economic. A generation ago, when frontiers had

ceased T.O eS ana aunusv u ywuuw wrnwry had been parceled out among the Powers, it was clearly foreseen that -. Germany and t' Austria would outgrow their own areas 4n-aiaw. years. Expansion was inevitable. To expand meant

conflict with other Powers and that meant war.

This fact has been the key to the European sit

uation since Kaiser Wilhelm took the throne and makes clear the long preparation by the nations involved. The struggle was inevitable and would have come whether or no. During all this time, Germany and England have been engaged in an industrial war almost as fierce and exhaustive as a siege of battles. This remorseless locking of horns by two nations, both determined on industrial supremacy, has meant a vast deal of suffering, poverty, and

death just how much anyone familiar with conditions in England will know. While war is bar

baric, while it is incompatible with all the accepted principles of civilization, an industrial war is quite as barbaric and it may be that a short de

cisive struggle with arms will prove less costly in

money and lives than a continued economic duel. Meanwhile compensatory forces are already at work. It may be the case, as has often been asserted, that this last huge war may prove the death of war. Like a logical fallacy, which

works itself out finally into an absurdity, it may be that this present battling may serve to demonstrate the utter futility of settling international disputes by an appeal to the arbitrament of arms. The American Red Cross Society has formally offered its services to both sides. This may in itself be a comparatively small thing, but does not this offer of unselfish Christian service suggest that there are already forces at work which in time will silently steal away from the heart of man that race antipathy and blood lust which has no other satisfaction than authorized murder and the use of a method of settling differences between nation and nation which was long ago found useless in settling the disputes between man and man?

MOBILIZATION OF I ARMY QUICKLY

EFFECTED

Note In his concluding article, H. H. Hadlow, formerly of the British army where he served with distinction in the Boer war, describes how England mobilizes her troops. When mobilization Is ordered word Is sent by mail, wire, or messenger to each reservist. Notices are posted up on all churches and public buildings and each man knows where he has to report. Proclamations are read by the mayors of every city. The mayor will furnish transportation vouchers and make other necessary arrangements. No reservist is allowed to reside out of Great Britain except by special permission. Large numbers of reservists hold positions and are easily and quickly mobilized. The Territorials are mobilized in exactly the same way as the reservists. Each town has a complete company of territorials and these would join

the other companies in adjoining towns and the complete battalion would be under arms in a few hours with its own complete supplies. The government would assume command

of the railroads which, unlike Germany, are not operated by ex-soldiers. Horses and autos would be commandeered and a receipt for same given to their owners who would be compensated at full value by the government. Secret forts all around the coast would be manned. The bulk of the troops would proceed with all speed to the large mobilization centers such as London, Aldershot, Salisbury Plain, the Curragh in Ireland and Edinburgh and Glasgow in Scotland. Seasoned troops serving in India would be replaced by other men as far as possible. In time of war England must always expect and make preparations for repelling an invasion and for this duty the Territorials would be of inestimable service. Service in the Navy. Service in the royal navy and royal marines is on a different footing to the army. In the navy a bluejacket (seaman) has to enter the service between the ages of 15 and 16 and he signs on for twelve years continuous service commencing from his 18th

birthday. His boy service does not count. He serves on a training ship at first, and at the age of 18 he becomes an ordinary seaman. Next he becomes an able seaman and then leading seaman or fully qualified blueJacket. For service as stoker men are eligible for enlistment between the ages of 18 and 25 and the period of enlistment is for 12 years. The age limit is a littlo more elastic for men who enlist in the special branches such as artificers, electricians, carpenters, shipwrights, clerks, cooks, servants, etc., but each has to serve 12 years. The rate of pay ia the navy is higher than in the army. The rank and file receive about 50c a day but have to buy their own uniform. A free kit is given on enlistment but is not repeated. The goods can be purchased at cost .price and the sailor is taught to make his own clothes. At the expiration of his 12 years service he has the privilege of joining the Royal Naval Reserve and as in the case of the soldier receives a Small retainer. These reservists come up for two weeks' service afloat each year at the time of the annual manoeuvers. Life Pension. Instead of quitting the -service ' at the end of 12 yeare a man may reenlist for a further period of 9 years and would then retire on a life pension. It is interesting to note that the whole of the London Fire Brigade is made up of ex-naval men. After a certain 'period of service In the navy the sailor can volunteer for the Coastguard service. Observation stations are dotted all around the coast each station being manned by from ten to twenty coastguards under a petty officer. These positions are usually sought by married men as housing accommodation Is provided free. It should be stated that sailors marry "Wt tlx strength." that Is, no extra ,

pay is given them and accommodation for their families is a matter of personal arrangement. When on home service the men are allowed ashore most every night from 4 p. m. until 5 a. m. in summer and 6 a. m. in winter. Soldiers may marry "On the Strength" but only a certain proportion of married men can be carried on the strength by each regiment. The soldier must have served two years, must wait his turn, and his wife-to-be must bu of good character vouched for by some responsible party. Married quarters are provided at each barracks free of charge and extra pay is granted the man. Returning to the navy from which I have digressed a little, I must not

omit to refer to the volunteer naval

reserve force which has been in-i stltuted of late years. Training ships are stationed at many ports and civilians have been enabled to undergo naval training, supplemented by a yearly training of two weeks on an ocean-going man of war. This force

has steadily gained in numbers and popularity each year and is now quite a force to be reckoned in time of danger. Entry to the navy as an officer is a difficult and costly proposition. Must Be Nominated. The age limit is from 11 to 12 years and the boy must be nominated by an admiral. His next step is to pass a qualifying examination of a general nature. That being satisfactory he is enrolled as a naval cadet and studies for four years, being compelled to pass an examination each year. Failure to pass any year brings his career to a close. At the age of 15 or 16 he becomes a midshipman and his future progress is automatic and goes by seniority. His pay, like. that of the army officer, is never sufficient to keep him and only those in receipt of

Brown's intention, to become a candidate for the seat in the United States Senate of Senator Thomas when his term expires next year, Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, suffragist leader was anything but calm. "It's down right treason for any Colorado woman to think of running against Senator Thomas, who has done so much for our cause. Besides it's five years too early for any woman to try for the United States senate," she snorted.

NEW YORK, Aug. 6. To the music

of the "Marsellaise" and shouts of "On to Berlin," the French liner La

Lorraine sailed today for France, carrying 2,000 reservists who have gone to fight the Kaiser.

Previous to her departure. Captain

Murras conferred at length with Captain Haddock of the Olympic who had reported sighting a German cruiser on his way from England. The Olympic arrived safely and Captain Murras stated that he could "take a chance."

private allowances to augment their service can hold positions as officers. An army lieutenant receives $1.25 a day. Naval officers are paid on a slightly higher scale. Service in the Royal Marines is for a period of 12 consecutive years with the same privilege of serving 21 years for a pension. A marine taking his discharge at 12 years can join the reserve at his own option and many do so. These reservists report for training once a year. The pay in this branch of the British service is slightly higher than the army but less than the navy. The marine infantry are known as Red Marines, and the marine artillery as Blue Marines. It will be seen that Great Britain can place a large number of trained men in the field and its navy of course is the strongest in the world.

ELECT JACOBS Former Students Hold An

nual Reunion and Frolic at Jackson Park. CAMBRIDGE CITY. Ind., Aug. 6. The annual reunion of the Pennville school was held in Jackson Park and was not only more generally attended than for many years past, but was, as well, one of the most interesting and enjoyable of the many reunions held in previous years. The dinner was spread under the shade of the beautiful maple trees, about which were seated more then one hundred persons at one time. In the afternoon the number was increased to 150 persons, including old teachers, patrons and pupils. Horseshoes, swings, music and dancing passed the time merrily for all. J. A. Markley, of Richmond, in the absence of Mrs. J. W. Beard, who is with friends at Lake Maxinkuckee, presided. Letters were read from absent members. E. G. Jacobs was elected president, and Mrs. Nancy Compton, re-elected secretary. J. L. McDaniel, Harry Sowers, and Charles Rothermel were nam-

Among the number present was A. W. Bradbury, of this city, who assisted his brother, Daniel W. Brtdbury, now of Indianapolis, in teaching the first Pennville school, on the present site In 1857. Of the pupils of fifty-seven years ago, there were present J. A. Markley, Richmond; Andrew Menke, Chester; Robert Tout, Indianapolis; James Helms, Abington, J. L. McDaniel and Miss Anna La Neve, this city; E. G. Jacobs, M. L. Markley and Belle Menk, W. H. Trusdler, of Everton, a former trustee, was also present. The reunion will be held again in 1915.

A Message to Thin, Weak, Scrawny Folks An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 30 Lbs. of Solid, Healthy, Permanent Flesh. Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and women everywhere are heard to say, "I can't understand why I do not get fat. I eat plenty of good, nouiishing food." The reason is just this: You cannot get fat, no matter how much 'you eat, unless your digestive organs assimilate the fat-making elements of your food instead of passing them out through the body as waste. What is needed is a means of gently urging the assimilative functions of the stomach and intestines to absorb
