D. and again in 1669 Catania was inundated, with a loss of life between 15,000 and 20,000. This time, Catan‘a is spared, but many a thriving township is cov ered with solidifying rock, not to be cultivated in this age of the world. Numbers of little villages have started into flames at the ap- proach of the white-hot molten walis, slipping gradually down the slope. Many a stolid peasant has re- treated backward silently step by step over his acres before the in- evitable cumbrous stream, pushing before it a moraine of vicious mud and half-cooled stones. The peasants will go elsewhere, doubtless, and try it again. Some will leave Etna, igusted with the sudden ruin of all they had built up. Some will only choose another rich nowhere else in Sicily and that there won't be another outbreak for some time now. The game begins all over again. PUBLICITY WHERE IT IS NOT NEEDED “In times of peace prepare for war’ an old slogan in this more or less civilized world, and a slogan which many nations, particularly those in Europe, have very busily literally obeyed. But there might be an adaption made from the moth-eaten maxim; something like “In time of peace, say nothing about war inventions.” The war department has just an nounced to a war-wearied world that it has developed a new type of gunpowder which has all the power of previous powders but is smoke- less, flashless and impervious to moisture. Such a powder might be of great advantage to the gunmen * of our larger cities, and perhaps of some slight service in legitimate commercial use; but naturally its principle function is, or will be, in war. There is such a thing as over- dear old movies prove quite fre- quently. This announcement of the war department seems to fall in that category. Why we should an- nounce such things, which smack of It is not conceivable that they are put! out for the purpose of weakening 2 the morals of any prospective ene- ° mies of the United States, or scaring them.

Dr. Van Dyke, among American schoolmen is a grateful antidote. He does much to leaven a lump that would at times be un- palatable, if not unwholesome. English is the language of this country—the official language, the| language of the law courts and the language of the market place. It is a language of harmonious idioms, lrich in literature. To apologize for| an inheritance that should stimulate person does apologize for it. And) | na- as it is the inheritance of the |tive Englishman.

They required years of experimentation and research, costing mil- lions of dollars. Private capital took all the risk. The people would not have permitted government or city funds being gambled on “fool things.” We'd now be 100 years behind, but for pri- vate capital and initiative, privately owned Public Utilities and kindred industries; we'd. still be groping in the dark of the lamp age, riding in horse cars, cooking with cordwood fires and ignorant of the telephone, Natrona Power Co. a CAAA.)
