Most people read fiction nowadays —and most people who talk about fiction at all have the idea there is No real American will be.

In 1995 20.3 per cent of books pub- lished was fiction. Last year's fig- ures show only 8.91 per cent fiction. This gives rise to interesting ques- tions. Are we becoming more ‘"in- tellectual”? Are we getting to be more “solid” atid matter of fact? Don't the thrillers “get” us as they used to? Anyway, a growing ‘percentage of books deal with sober, serious fact, and the good old heart throb plot that thickens is on the! wane. It is interesting to note that the decline has been gradual since 1895 —and so it can’t be laid to the war, as most everything else is. —_—_— SCHOOL’S OUT! Vacation time really depends on the children. ‘When they are out of school, with books closed, parents ask, “What shall we do for the children this summer?” Soon the rest of the community is affected with the con- tagion and vacation time is really under way. Travel is always popular. Resorts at lake and mountains, forest and sea- shore promise rest and amusement. Camping canoe trips, hunting and fish- ing lure those who enjoy the stren- uous life. Whatever you enjoy don't let false ideas of economy, as a war time measure of patriotism, deter you from getting some sort of a vacation. If you have been accustomed to a long railroad trip and feel that a Liberty bond would be a better and more pa- triotic investment, that is for you to decide. But don’t allow the change in plans to prevent your taking that two weeks: off from your office or work bench. ‘If you’ feel that the country needs your effort in the two weeks go out in the country and help with the harvest: The big industrial corporations don't release their office forces on pay from purely altruistic motives. It’s a part of the efficiency movement. There's, good money in it for them. “All work and no play makes Jack a dull Loy” is a true maxim that has Jost nothing with age. Physical rest is usually unimportant to the vaca- tioneer. Men will go out in the woods and perform feats that would “simply kill" them in the city, and come back all the better for it. It’s the change of occupation, the release of the mind from its accustomed channels, the meeting with new people, and the new angle on life, that makes vaca- tions pay. You will find that there is more ac- complishment in a 50-week year’ than in a 365-day grind. THE CORPORATION OF KANSAS. “Business as Usual” is no longer a good enough slogan for public busi- ness in Kansas. “Better Business” is the new motto. zJuly 1 Kansas will refuse to longer regard the administrative department of the state as an eleemosynary in- stitution for the distribution ‘of polit- ical plums.

Americans even yet have the slightest conception of the ideas which govern Germany. Many Americans have‘ only. lately come to pelisve the facts’ of: German: policies.”;’ They coitid not trust any evidence, so ab- solutely impossible did such’ things as the Germans have done seem to be in this twentieth century. But everything Germany has -d-ne has been done calmly, coolly and with malice aforethought. Germany is not a mad dog foaming at the mouth The nation is mad, but it is the cool lunacy of a poisoned brain, not the red fury of rabies. . To find out what is the matter with Germany it is necessary to go to the source of German ideas—to the think- ers who have fashioned her ideals for the past two generations. Following are some , quotations which tell the tale. They are the words of the men who have been most widely read and most widely believed by the Germans of today. These thinkers have put into un- qualified statement the principles up- on which the Prussian power was Like all philosophers, they heve simply re flected in their books the world about them. In turn their statement; ot tre national ideals have had the vifect of strengthering and crystadizing them.

And finally the renegade English man, Houston Chamberlain, who hates his own country, and from his Berlin home has for years savagely attack- ed Englismen as decadent, because they would not accept the German theories, says: ‘Militarism is the in- dispensable instrument of German culture, it builds its brightest hopes of’ supremacy on the extermination of others,” There are Americans who. believe them. For them, we maintain, manv penitentiaries. and electric chairs. We do not honor them with decorations nor place them in the chairs of our universities. No American has ever successfully publishéd 2 book uphold- ing such doctrines. In Germany such books can be bought at any railways news stad.

RAILWAYS OF THE They Are Preparing to Handle Washington. —Transportation is an essential of the national service in war time, Railways move.the troops, feed the troops, equip the tPoops ; rail- ways feed the navy, equip and coal the navy, and build the ships, No plant can perform its government task with- out prompt movement of material, parts, supplies and fuel, Railways are the very arteries of war. Magnificent armies of highly disciplined men equipped with the sost ingenious in- struments of destruction would be.ren- dered inefficient by a lack of railroads. Never, perhaps, was the Importance of the railroad so exemplified as in the European war. When the first shad- ow of a war cloud was cast over the peace-loving United States, instant consideration of the railroads as a means. of defense came from the gov- ernment, and railroad officials patrioti- cally took the initiative in placing at the disposal of the nation every mile of track and every wheel. When the history of the war is written, one of the most dramatic chapters may have to do. with the part the railroads played. If the American railways were called upon to move large bodies of troops and gave the same accommodation as supplied in Europe, said George Bury, vice president of the Canadian Pacific railway, the other day, they would be in a position to move a vastly. greater number in a shorter time. In warring Europe troops are -moved in freight cars when pussenger equipment is not available. In Europe the passenger service has been curtailed, the remain- ing trains slowed up, and the running of fast freights discontinued. Efficient Plan Worked Out. The country has been assured by the highest railroad authorities that the ; failures of our transportation system in the Spanish war will not be repeat- ed, but that, on the contrary, as a re- sult of a system which the war depart- ment has worked .out with the rail- roads, confusion such as pas incident to 1898 will be avoided. The conduct of that campaign was little better than the fiasco of the French empire at the opening of the Franco-Prussian ‘war. To get rid of the confusion which at- tended''the attempted mobilization at Tampa, when was disclosed an un- paralleled lack of executive ability, the with the railroads and worked ‘out a plan which has. been accepted by all jines:in the-country. ).: HESTON & During the Spanish war, for‘ exam- ple, sapplies for 70,000 meh had been } ordered to Tampa.’ In the effort of the railroads to put. these supplies into that port 1,000 frefght cars were side- tracked and the whole lines congested “up as far as Columbia, S.C. In ac- cordance with the. understanding, that today exists between the war depart- ment and all. the railroads, a placard willbe ‘placed on every freight car, marked “United States Army” in large letters at the head, stating the depart- ment to which the supplies are con- signed, the car initial, the car number, point of shipment, contents, consignee, destination, route, date shipped, and consignor. When they arrive at the front they will. at once be put into position, unloaded, and released with- out waiting for bills of lading or other railroad papers. The placards placed on the cars will be considered sufficient tor all purposes. Must Never Be Sidetracked. It will be a rule of the railroad offi- cials conducting the mobilization that a car thus marked shall never be side- tracked<6f ‘laid over in a yard. If it 1s damaged in any manner, repairs on it will have precedence over other work. If these repairs cannot be im- mediately made, or are serious in char- acter, the car will be at once unloaded and another car substituted and sent on through, with the same placard. One of the chief troubles at Tampa was that the freight was not labeled. Nobody knew what the cars contained or where any specific supplies were along the line. For months before diplomatic rela- tions were broken with Germany the committee. on transportation and communication of the advisory com- mission of the Council for National Defense, headed by Daniel Willard, President of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, had been in close communi- cation with the officials of the war department. \When the danger became an actual menace the work of prompt- ly organizing the railroads for defense fell upon the executive committee of the American Railway association. Col. John L. Taylor of the. bureau of ‘explosives of the American Railway association said last week that in the whole world there was no such broad and highly developed system’ as that | possessed by Uncle Sam. It was cre- | ated, however, for the pursuits of peace; it made no claims to efficiency on special military lines comparable for instance. System in Germany. By the end of 1907 the normal tracks in Germany constituted more than one-sixth of the whole of Europe ‘a system ‘larger than that of any other European: country with one ex- ception, Russia.

He has hud the power ta © demand and to prescribe lower than the normal rates for the transporta- tion of provisions in case of emer- gency. He, in connection with the up- per house of parliament, may call for the conveyance of soldiers and the ma Aerials of war. Not long after the war began Ger- many called to the colors every avall- able man. This gave a total of 4,000,- 000 men in the field to be supplied with food, clothing, ammunition, and every: thing needed for actual service. There 1 ¥ » were probably 800,000 horses also ip the field, and they too had to be fed The ammunition and the guns had ta be carried to the front by rail, and much of it was transported back and forth several times. Germany’s rail- road arrangements had been complete even before the war started.. A war time-table, revised as occasion de manded, has from the first been in the a possession of railway officers through: - . : out the country, capable of being put i into force at.the shortest notice. Short strategic lines built by Germany on the French and Belgian frontiers have been of the greatest importance, and, f i { to in addition, most of the main lines are so located as to have the greatest ef: ficiency for military purposes, Every railroad car in Germany has stenciled on it the number of men or horses it is expected to accommodate, ij In Germany the world has its. most | complete example of the state-owned railway. Bismarck worked for impe. rial ownership. The foundation ot such a net as we now see in operation war department took :up. the question | ° with the transportation of Germany, |. Alsace-Lorraine came to the empire as a result of the Franco-Prussian war, In that war Germany used her seven railway lines in the north and three in the south, only one having a double track, to transport 16 army corps, numbering 450,000 men, to the frontier, and accomplished the strategic feat in 11 days.

STEEL WORKERS NEED HOMES Housing Problem at the Bethieheme Is Becoming More Acute . Than Ever. South Bethlehem, Pa.—With the en- try of the United States into the war, the housing problem in this phenome- nally growing steel center has become more acute than ever. It is estimated that to house prop- erly those who should reside in the Bethlehems, but who are compelled to seek” residences elsewhere, 6,000 to 110,000 more buildings are needed. Private building bas been going on at the rate of 1,500 houses a year. Charles M. Schwab has just an- nounced his, company will put up 1,500 more workingmen’s houses this year at a cost of. $5,000,000, this be- ing equivalent to building a town of between 5,000 and 10,000 persons. But the situation will- probably be as bad at the end of the year as it ever was, unless the rate of growth suddenly drops. To build the new Schwab houses 50 carloads of material will be deliv- ered every day. Three thousand work- men will be employed. Suffer for Honesty. New York.—Twenty-six.
