A big percentage of the game law arrests are aliens. The bill is approved by the range gun clubs. A War of Machinery. When the Greeks fought at Troy, personal prowess was everything. Alexander and Caesar organized men into fighting machines which were still human. In the War of the Pow- ers men have not even that distine- tion. We can hardly say that sol- diers are fighting soldiers. It is ra- ther machinery that is fighting ma- chinery. To be sure, with equal ar- mament the battle will turn upon the human factér—the judgment and precision with which the men handle the mechanism, and in less degree, the spirit with which they are im- bued. But still, the personal glory of war hasi departed. A battle, whe- ther by sea or land, is steel and pow- der against steel and powder, at the behest of engineer-generals and ad- mirals, and3gt the hands of vague, anonymous InasSed-of humanify. And " yet this war awakes the imagination as no other war has ever done. For today, on a sicale of unimaginable magnitude, the nations are fighting by land, on the water, under the water and in the air. It is only in the last-named type of fighting, however, that personal initiative still has free play. It was reported at the outbreak of hostilities between Germany and France that a soli- tary French aviator had risen to at- tack a Clerman dirigible airship, darting at it like a wasp in midair, plunging through the baloon in full flight and thurling himself and twenty-five enemies to the earth in a tangled mad{s of wreckage. That Frenchman, if the feat is authentic, will take his place in history be- sides Roman Horatius at the Tiber bridge and the handful of Greeks at the pass of Thermopylae. The sub- marines that dog the heels of a mod- ‘ern fleet may go down-never to rise again, their crews leaving no mem- ory. A battleship with its thousand men may be sunk by a mine without the lifting of a hand or the glance of an eye. A torpedo may win a bat- tle greater than Trafalgar, and the man who launched it may be as an- onymoiis as a lyddite shell. Troops of soldiers are mowed down by gatling guns or shrapnel as hail beats down grain. Human life is no more than grass in a prairie fire. All is heart- lessi seience, the pitiless precision of electricity and steam and steel and explosive gases. KRR KX R KKK KKK KR X * .

BACK FENCES A MENACE; DENOUNCED IN. ) Clean City Committee Inaugur: Campaign For Low Pickets Inste Convinced that there is no more serlous mentce to the heulth of Wash ingtouians than the high, tight fence, | members of the clean cit, of the District of Columbin ure: pian: ning to innugurate an active campaign- this fall for the elimination of tl.lls type of inclosure for premises. Citizens’ associations are to be asked to join in the fight, while the co-opera- tion of real estate men will also’be sought. The District comxnlssloqem are on record as favoring the abolition of the high, tight fence and pmlmbb will be petitioned to enact a re Lulw tion requiring all new or reconstructed fences to be of the low, open type. Dr. Arthur L. Murray, sccretnry of the clean city committee, has recently made an inspection of the ecity, study- ing the relation of the high board fehce to the home, the neighborhood and the community. He is emphatically of the opinion that this type of fence must go if Washington is to be made more sanitary and beautiful. “Probably one of the greatest handi- caps to the sanitary conduct of every municipality,” says Doctor Murray, “Is that hard and fast practice of sur- rounding the rear portions of resi- dences with high, tight board fences. This practice. sanctioned only by custom, was most unfortunately foist- ed upon communities at a time in the dim past when there existed a decided Inck of appreciation of the advantages. and, 1 may even say, the necessity of the admission of a maximum amount vf sunlight and air to all parts of .the premiges. “I was only recently asked, ‘Why should the practice of building high, tight~board fences be done away with in view of the fact that a type of fence of this nature has served its purpose for so many years? Thi§ quéstion may well be answered by the query: ‘Is there any logical reason why the rear portion of a premises should not be made as attractive and inviting as the front? Who would think of lnclos{ing their front parking with a high, tight fence? ” Use “Gets-it,” Gorns Shrivel, ¥anich?
