UnVM that grit hiring1 formulate- rome program v.h'.h v.-ill nl wu or make them most improba- . t: un! thyore :h en agreement bafd upon . nr.itual confld'mc. tc discard armament except for a policing asraJr.i" lawlwn1!, the whole trend - xjZ civilization may bt chuigvd, Th fbr truth in that the world cannot rf&nd . tho min of cct in mont-y for more wani. It is Btaprerln;: new under tho debt of the Great War that war which thin country fought in bllf that It ftiui a war to end wars." It co.-rt, in riollaj-s, more thnin fifteen timei as much ea had all the wars that had bc-en fought from 1793 to 1910. It cost in human lifo tho tremendous total of ninety millions, when the Increased dath and decrease! birth ratoa are figured. Hut, tOHKlng ruilde nny pntlmental regard for life and looking at th mere eot in dollars, the total Is mich an to prove to on who stopa for a morm-nt to consider the matter, that the breaking - point ha bc-n reached. Tho wars of the world had oojft, from 1793 to 1910. approilmaUly twenty-three billions of dollars. Tho world war from 1914 to 1918 cost directly tho Ftapp rlnff total of one hundred and eighty-six billions of dollars. There wa an indirect cost, such as low of production and damaged property of another hundred and pevetity billions. Civilization 1-s struggling hard to withstand the - terrible burden that this lmro. to fight for Its very integrity agMnrt the temptation" to maddened rhar.K-cH and desperate revolutionary methods of cape. Thi country, the soundest and safest, the beat ablo to hold to Its own course, la iaylng and must pay for years, for its share in that war. Tho Interest charges each year, upon the present national debt, in approximately th-e amount of the total national debt In 1013. At that tlnu this country had a debt of a little over one billion dollars. Today the national debt is twenty-five billion.", with a doubtful chance of collecting some ten billions loaned to tho allie. Tht tremendous um would not terrify were they tho end. Hut unless thla conference disarms th world nnd dwn not merely enter upon some s'ow, gradual procew that getn nowhero and would le a continuing eause for distrust, gigantio sums nuiüt be rovided each year for future wars. The military party in this country and there is a military party win argue that tho best way to avoid war Is to have ho huge an army, ao powerful - a flcrt of battleHhlps, fo overwhelming' a power of air and submarine force that no one will dare attack. When that cost added to the debts that must be paid, it would mvin that for all time men must ray almost tho entire total of their earnings for the purpo of being protected while they work. It would send clvlhzati'on back to tho days of the cavemen, when tho male, armed with a club, stood - guard while rhe female rustled for food for both. There in a definite plot to defeat thl conference. demand for it expressed the hopes and alms of all poopV, hope to hatch a scheme in secret which ..they will thrust down the unwilling throat of all popular governments. There will be a dimand that this Conference b a jr-t on1. That conference was called by America not by th rrtsi-Unt ;us hi personal party but because the demand for it expressed t!ie hopea and anw of al? - Anuricarn. 1'very citizen h.s a right to know what hapjx. - Ho h.is a right to refjs to go behind locked doom - to plot and scheme either in person or by hi? proxies. A plain statement by the American members t.at "there mit - full publicity would gain p'ibllcity. The nation that r.-fuvd would be under suspicion. - Th soarot- f future wars woukl be located and V.r.own. The chances are that any representatives vho nf jt d to accede to the demand would be recallc 1 in dishonor by their own governments. P. t.nl .i'-iln thtt- figures of the cost of wars. Is " it v. v -th a two-cnt ftamp to make the effort to .urS or .p ThL tremendous dr.iln upon your l:;bcrs?

Ho never uM an unnecsnary word. Ho nver resorted to flown of speech, arurprisea or Jokes. He tuck to facts, gave both ddes, convinced his hearers by logical Judgment what we call "horee sense." Do not lament, if you have no talents, no unusual ability. Remember Demosthenes, Develop your will power. Then the world will He at your feet. o THE GREEISCASTLE IDEA Th cUy of Greencastlo blives that It hau the be-st behaved boys in the land and It gives credit for this fact, not to tbe jyvrnts but to Fred Walker, athkbtic coach. Boys, four to fourteen, had attained a soatewhat wld reputation for mischief before Walker came to coach Depauw. u happened that he looked beyond his Immediate Job and saw thAt what tlrt boya wanted was an outkt for their enthusiasm and a little interest and direction. Holding out the u"e of the college gymnasium as a reward. Walker led tho bays into pledging themeelve against the ue of profanity or cigarets and to solemnly promise to bo a "boo&ter." Tho la5t part turntd tlye. trick. Tho boys learned to talk and think in terms of optimism, and optimism gave birth to a whole retinue of habita that have transformed the town and replaced pure mlschlevousnetw wfth energetic devotion to service. The real booster trio to make good in more than words. Ho tadks well of hia town and then does all he can tw make it a town wxrth boosting. Ho talks well o his neighbors and then, slyly or openly, gives tho neighbor a friendly slap on the back to make -htm a still better neighbor. Tho whining and lamenting never get anywhere. Boosting drives out deviltry. It implants courage and breeds enthusiasm. If fcvery town had a Vader of the Walker sort, with every citizen pledgvd to boosting, there would be no llmltA to ite accomplishments. OreencaMle has shown what can be don-? with boy. Some day th idea will extend to grown-up boys nnd then watch the knockers, If such there be, try to break Into the organization and help. o WORKERS OR PARASITES? The great metropolitan papers print, as a surprising fact, anonuncements that numerous rociety women have "gone Into business." They are running beauty shops. Helling perfumes, writing for the movies and establishing dressmaking establishment?, which they call "salons" in order to raise them to some new eminence. It would be news, Indeed, if large numbers of those who p.r now idle were really and seriously embarking in some ort of useful work that would be of some benefit to mankind. The real truth is that, since the Introduction of such things as income taxes, a number of ladies, well advertised in the social columns, have loaned their names to enterprises engineered by shrewd men who know the frailltles of humanity, especially the feminine portion of iL Women deocrlbed as charming must surely have the secret of charm K that properly introduced, a shop that sells ev brand of perfume whose chemical composition could be easily obtained from a government report, and bearing the name of a social la.der, lures maids, young and old, who desire charm. . . The women draw dividends or salaries for the use of their narrows and go on in the ways they have alwayB trod or danced. It would be fine, big new- to find that the fact that Idleness Is the lonliest of occupations had been borne in upon those who by training, education and equipment might serve best. In the meantime, as far as results go, it continues to be more important to the world to know that Jennie Jones, who learned from her mother or !.n a domestic science class how to cook, has taken a Job. That, too, is news. And It counts. This business revival peems to be a protracted meeting.

T1IK UNKNOWN" WAIUUOR. (New York Times) At Washington on Armistice day Great Britain will bestow upon our unknown soldier, emblem of all our soldier and sailor dead, the noblest prize' that Great Britain can give for valor in her service the Victoria cross. Never given before to an American, the most coveted of British laurels, this is the strongest and most significant expression that Great Britain could make of .her gratitude for American cooperation in th war and of her good will in America. Kach country has done Its utmost to honor the unknown soldier ot the other. At the moment when the greatest ana most lasting cause of misunderstanding and irritation between Great Britain and the United States seems about to be removed, this symbolism of the substantial sympathy and good feeling that exist between the two countries is specially grateful and gracious. o GAMBLING. (Cleveland 1-ress.) Ancient Egyptians had a form of put-and-take top'. Thse conpistd of seven sticks, round on one side, flat on the other, shaken in u tall dice box until one fell out. Simples of this Interesting gambltrr device are brought from Egyptian tombs by Prof. George A. Heister, of Harvard. The Chinese for thousands of years have had exactly the same device. How did It get to Egypt? Did the Chinese once travel all over the world, as they claim? Antiquity may have had civilizations a wonderful as ours. AKT. (Los yvnsvlos Record.)

The "big price would cause heart failure to the old Chicago grain trader who. when his son paid J3.O0O for a picture of three- sheep, raid. "I could buy a fleck' of real sheep for that." The transaction is interesting to students of values. The real value of anything Is what it would coat to replace It. The Gainsborough painting cannot Le replaced-

A SAD CXXJUTtENCE. Fercy had a girl. And the last time He called on her She told him That she was making A new gown But that her heart Wasa't In it. Peroy has forbidden her To wear it. N. D. SCHOLASTIC.

CVie of the movie queens, returnIny from abroad the other day, said she waa coming back to marry an rr-erican oil king. Who did she mean, John D. Rockefeller or Bruc Ganll?

All of the nations of the world are head over heels in debt. Funny, they never thought of holding a church bazar.

No woman in an even gown should b able to convince a man that she's ?.n angel, because he can see for himself she has no wings.

They tell a story about Dave Eoswell and Tony Boeckling. It seems Dave was loaning along at 76 miles an hour when the gas gave out. "Now we'll have to walk home" said Dave. "Thank God." said Tony.

The average r.ewspaper man never has to worry much about the crime wave or holdups.

An economical man is one who raises whiskers to cut out necktie expense.

Jake Heckaman's idea of a lazy man is the one, who won't take hi3 hat off while he's having his hair cut. He sez that Dave Fishgrund tried it once on him and he surprised Dave by giving him a fine hair cut.

Many a man treats his wife's folks like they were the foreign relations committee.

THE Pill CK OF TEARS. (Los Angeles Time) -Will you take 150 for that cow?" said Farmer Scroggins. "Can t do it," was Farmer Johnson's reply. "But yesterday you tcld me you'd sell her'fer $100." "I know I did, but IT. have to

back out." I

"You see, the cow belongs to my daughter, and she says she will sob herself into hysterics if I sell the cow. It would break her heart." "All right it's no sale, then." "I say." "Well, what is It?" "Make it 1 60 and we'll let her sob."

The trouble with prohibition Is that the price doesn't no more than get down within reach until the enforcement oMlcers come along and force it back up again. This sort of thing ought to be stopped.

ßho tried to purn, he wouldn't listen, now he is hern and she is hisn.

GEORGL2 DIM CD DUG Tins UP. William Jennings Bryan would never tell this story. It's on a "Pussyfoot" lecturer who was talking in a certain hall one evening on the drink question. "Now, supposing I had a pall of water and a pail of beeron this platform, and then brought on a donkey; which of the two would he take?" "He'd take the water," came a voice from the gallery. "And why should he take the water?" asked the lecturer. "Becauso he's an ass," came the reply. Book of Smiles.

There that's done and the next time one of our printer's puts Monday's Tower in on Sunday he'll have to write one himself.

A MORNING PRAYEIl. This I will bnxithe for my .morning prayer: Give me strength for my round of care; Let mte face what the day may bring Of hurt, or heartache, unwhlmpering. Let me use my talents the beet I can And come to my children at night a man. This is my prayer for the break of day: Grant me something of cheer to say; Lot this day glow with some kindly

deed Which has brightened another's hour of need. Let me come home with the setting sun With a smiling faco and my task well done. This Is my prayer for the morning new: Grant me strength for what I muet do; IC-t me rejoice as I go on my way In the precious gift of another day. And let me come home with a smiling face Fit for my little one's fond embrace. (Copyright, 1921, by Edgar A. Guest.)

Daily Poem Quality-

We have a modest little home It's like a million others I guess A yard, a bit of garden loam In which we labor more or less; The house a simple frame affair, A porch with flowers overgrown. You'll find its double anywhere, It Isn't much, but It's Our Own! We have a car you know tho rattles, but it seems to go. it suits us for the trips we take Just little Journeys, to and fro; Jt makes us friendly with the sun. And on its wanderings we've known A lot of simple, healthful fun; It isn't much, but it's Our Own! We have a Baby. It may be That there are millions Just as good; I?ut you won't get US tot agree To such a thought, that's understood. And though we love our home, our car. Wo speak of them in modest tone, But Baby! of all babes there are She is the best and she's Our Own!

A LONG XUM REFORM. No li nger the fair and be-ribboned co-ed Or the lovely young visiting dame. By the freshie or Junior or soph can be led To her seat at the critical game. No longer her voice she can Joyfully raise In the lilting and rollicking song, Or fix tne great stars with her glorious gaze From the seats where the undergrads throng. ' For even the love of the bully old col Will slip from an undergrade mind. When he sits by the sld5 of a beautiful doll Unless he should haply be blind. He often forgets to get up on hla toes And Join in the general cheer, If a damsel in pink with a face like a rose Is sitting a trifle too near. The cheer-leadeirs moan that a stand full of Janes So affects tho young fellows around. That in spite of the rushes and twenty-yard gains They seldom will utter a sound. A fellow Intent on the bright shining lamps, Filled with light as effulgent as dawn. Which gleam from the faces of charming young vamps. Forgets there's a game going on. And so in the future if ladies appear On occasions when games may be tight. They shall not be permitted to put on the cheer A heavy and dangerous blight. Of course they won't bar from all seats in the bowl The radiant wonderful elves, But the squads with the lungs will be kept in control For the girls will be parked by themselves.
