WHAT THE WORLD OWES.
“ T h e world owes me a liv in g !” «How
often the m a k e r of t h a t re m a rk is a l a z y , :
good-fur n o th in g fellow with an e m p ty
h ea d and no conception w h a te v er of the
vaiue or joy of good, h a rd work.
B ut d o n ’t co nde m n him v et!
T h e world did owe hiiw a p roper start.
Did he get it?
P e rh a p s he did— b u t m ore likely he
d i d n ’t.
T h e m an who has a proper s t a r t —
physically, m e n ta lly , m orally—doesn ’t
often d e g e n era te into th e worthless
s tree t c o rn e r w h in e r who declaims.
’‘ The world owes m e a liv in g !”

PREDICAMENT OF HOLLAND.
H o llan d has been notified by Italy
t h a t a n y efforts on h er p a r t to bring
a b o u t peace in E urope would be re g ard ­

effects of t h e w ar upon our dom estic life
