T H U R S D A Y . OCTOBER 4, 1917. Ordinarily this is not a country that asks much of its people. It offers them so much and requires so little. It en courages the development of their own individuality and well-being. It re joices to see them prosper. It plans no oppression. Its statesmen do not spend their nights and days dreaming of the robbery of their neighbor states. MILITARY TRAINING. The patriotic organizations of the country which have been doing yeoman service in supporting the arms of the government during the war and prior to the time when the United States en tered it, have advocated “ universal” or general military training of every young man in the United States. Bills have been introduced in congress providing for military training and they are still hanging tire with their avoeates waiting for an opportune moment to bring them out for consideration. There is very good argument iu favor of military training for every young man. It inculcates in the recruit re spect for the rights of other people, patriotism, obedience and tends to im prove him physically. The object of military training is to ha\<R a reserve army that has learned the tactics of war, which can be called to the colors and on short notice be made fit for active service. I f the United State- is to become a military power, military training will have to he resorted to, but what is the object of the allies in the present war? Is it not to do away with autocracy? W ith militarism? Is it not the purpose to bring about a disarmament of the nations and to place the world on a per- pectual peace footing! If this is the purpose of the war, and if the allies are to win and militarism be squelched, will it beome necessary for general military training? Would it not be better to await the outcome of the European war, and let the decision as to military training in this country rest upon the basis of the peace treaty? If there is to be no more wais, thtre need he no more navies and no more armies. Therefore would it not he bet ter before pressing the military train ing bills now before congress, to see what the outcome of the European war is to be and where we will stand when the war is over? In Minneapolis it has been ascertained that wife desertion is much less com mon than a year ago. Some men who didn't think much of their wives in the past have developed a lot of a lection since the possibility of being drafted loomed up before them, hut we don’ t believe that sort would make any bet ter soldiers than they have husbands. Ties Itself In a Knot. How fishes get off the hook is always interesting, for the most talked o f fish is the fish that got away. Chapman Grant, who gets fish for the Aquarium, has witnessed the remarkable manner In which raorays will disengage them selves from the book. I f held dangling in the air the moray will double on himself, tie the knot and pull his head out backward. "A t this juncture,” says Mr. Grant, "it has always been my experience that the hook or line broke, allowing the fish to escape. Mr. Mowbray, how ever, states that he has seen morays strangle themselves whrn caught with strong tackle."—New York Sun. Very Diplomatic. "Tou say Dm Skill p’ays an ideal fa m e of gol f ?" “ Yes.
