Some of it is going o be shot away; some of It Is going to be sunk at sea; some of it Is going to be In vested, in machinery that will be use less in time of peace. But a very great portion of It is be ing spent for things that will be as valuable when peace comes as now, though not so Imperatively needed then ships for Instance. And as for the immense amount spent In adapt ing our manufacturing plants to war purposes, It. Is estimated that 90 per cent of our war machinery can and will be used for other manufacturing work after tho war. The invisible and intangible forces, the moral forces of the world, the soul and conscience of mankind are fight-1 ing on our side.

When a man goes out from the worries, responsi bilities, anxieties, and Irrltnttnux of civil life to i the peaceful pursuit of war' "He stopped and laughed. Then hu went on seriously: "'I mean that I I've seen thexe snl low, pasty young clerks get out and turn Into men I I've seen young chops who were little more than flabby hu man, jellyfish transformed by their lfe In the. trenches Into husky fejlows (hat were grit clean through.
