"Don't tlu-y look emit in those uniforms.) (jee, I wish
there would lie another war."
Certainly. War is the supreme sport, thrilling. exeiliiiL',
hands playing, flags flying, and the Youth coming home "a
conquering hero."
This is still the attitude of the next generation. And as
long as it is, this joh of organizing a warless world, is going
to he a hard one, fraught, with discouragement ; at times appear
ing to nuiny as a hopeless proposition.
i
BIT it isn't. Kor war in spite of its primitive appeal, nnd
traditional glamour, is opposed most strongly hy those
who know most about it. OiiIt the other day a veteran of the
World AVar, paid a visit to the Veterans' hospital in Palo Alto.
California. When ho returned h' said to the present writer:
"Too bad more people couldn't go through a hospital lik-
that. War is still a reality to those poor devils maimed, crip
pled, some of! them suffering, scores doomed to permanent in
validism. One can't visit a phi'c like that, and not understand
why l'residcnt Hoover and I'rejnier Mac Donald are doing ev
erything they can, to make war l.'ss likely in the future."
.
E VICHY man who saw active service on the front knows
this. They aren't I'acificts in the accepted sense, for they
realize that as the world is at. present constituted, actual dis
armament would be folly, lint they are opposed to war, mid
they are doing all they can to
And this is a very hojiefiil
in the future, these millions of
mendous political power in this
will their sons and daughters, "wish" there would be another
war. They will be ready to fight if one comes, lint they will
do everything they can to prevent it, for they know whet
wnr really means.
THE HIGH COST OF PEACE
WK all know something about the cost of war in human
life and treasure. One hundred and fifty thousand Amer
icans were killed during our two years of war,or died as 11
retail!, of it. The war cost I'nele Sain tin average of ten billion'
dollars a year.
15ut few of us realize how that war cost continues during
peace. This country is now paying our war veterans !r-.")tl(t,tHI),-
000 n year not this year or last
bonus but. for care of those ill and disabled. Adjusted com
pensation and insurance amounts to five billion more, extend
ing through u period of years. Kor 1!)H0 the estimated cost
ot the, Veterans' bureau, pension office and Veterans' homes,
totals $828,000,000. And every yenr until the estimated peak
in this yearly payment will grow in size.
AS William (!. Shepherd says in the current Colliers, paying
for three neaccs at one time the Civil War neaee. tlu-
-pmiisli-Aiiienciin pence, mid
pretty high.
So here is an economic factor,. as a vital argument against
war. As the author concludes:
"Maybe as a rich nation
other war if we bad to. Hut peace costs more than war in I
terms of veterans. We can't very well afford a fourth peace,!
until we get settled up for the
hands." '

i an aiii inliXMif,'ain ? I jmk you
because I have often heard of peo
ple gi-tting tonsils again after be
ing operated on. (V. W. il.)
Answer. .Man has but one ap
pendix here below, nor has that
very long. Vou are not likely to
get another sojourn in the hospital
l.iiht away unless ono of the doc
tors misses his spectacles or u
valuable1 hemostal and decides to
reopen the case to break up adhe
sions. To guard against this It Is
a good plan to devote yourself to
other diversions after tho three
months convalescence, or If you
find that Impossible, then marry
the nurse and settle down to a life
of bliss. I am not at all facetious
about this. I say in all sincerity
that whatever other virtues or at
tractions n young woman may
have, training as . a nurse pre
eminently fits her for wifehood
and motherhood, as no other edu
cation at present can.
Acidity
May a person having hyperacid
ity cat the; following: Applesauce,
cooked barldf, cooked onions,
cooked turnips, parsley and leek In
soups, vanilla nnd almond flavor
ing In plain cake, lemon Juice,
lemon rind?' (10. 11.)
Answer, Where Is tho acidity?
If you mean stomach acidity, there
Is no way to know whether the
person can take the items men
tioned. He might try ono item
each day, beginning with any sim
ple diet such as bread and milk,
or meat and later, and adding one
new item daily, until he is taking a
I o
vajied diet or suffers some
difficulty. Then he can omit the
troublesome item for a while, per
haps making another trial of It
after a few weeks, to see whether
he Is making any headway.
Quill Points
