SUPERFLUOUS WAR.
A !(!. I SI I war! It's useless stuff, designed by inonarehs rat
tled; our ears can kill us fast enough wv don't need hosts
embattled. War's such an old and outworn means of death if
makes us snicker; our touring cars and limousines can do the job
much quicker. AVar kills its legions while it lasts, but when it is
suspended, with all its smoke and deadly blasts, the butchery is
ended. The veterans forget their scars, and (urn to sane en
deavor; but w hen we come to motor cars, the blood flows on for
ever. If populations are too thick, the figures growing taller,
there always is the speeding hick to make the census smaller.
The roadster and tlie limousine are killing people daily; wo pils
the bodies on the green, and cry our " YVillow-waly '. " The tour
ing car and large .sedan around the town are racing, and every
hour another man is ruined by a easing. The smiling maid, the
gaffer gray, upon the highways hilly, arc run down by the brisk
coupe that knocks the speed laws silly. Abolish Mars! And on his
brow let all his cheap wreaths wither, for wo have deadly engines
now that knock him yon and thither.
