The more a man has, the greater his hatred of the waste and destructiveness of war and the greater his attnehment to pence, But itis algo true that the more a man has to lose by war, the flercer wil be his fighting if he must make war; and the civilization which has given himy his property has also given him the superior brains with which best to defend it, An intelligent, consetentious, tenacious love of peace is (he most powerful inspiration to battle when war really becomes necessary We are the most unwarlike great people in the world over dus) MEN OF PRACK nN ris, war foeday uniform beenuse it represents the idea of sinking his precious indiy iduality in the mass, the idea of ceasing to be nounit and becoming an insignifieant fraction, But that is precisely why the average American, constrained by duty to the soldier's trade, pursues it with 80 much intelligence ond energy He knows that the better he fights the sooner he can yet back Co his ctvilian clothes and civilian comfort Physical courage is practically a universal trait mals and probably most vogetables pos- WRAVERY 48 sous jt.
