Will" WAIT? OOOI) EVEXIXO. llttlo EDISON says that when this great war Is over, tho energies of tho world will bo glnd to turn to In vention, engineering and productive labor nnd that tho greatest construc tive advanco In history will follow. It sounds sensible that mankind should soon turn from problems of killing to problems of living, but wo In this country nro not nt war and why should wo wait? No doubt wo shall ndvantago greatly In the future by being driven to develop our own resources And by discovering the wist possibilities of foreign trado to which wo havo been strangers; but what about tho "now?" What sen8o or .profit Is there for us In waiting until aftor tho war to buy and soil, to reap and bow, to What Is It to bo wise? 'Tls but to show how can be known; To see nil others' faults, and feel your own. Pope. A HAKIIOK SOXG.
