GERMANY AGAINST THE WORLD

ltaiy is now a hard and fast mem-
ber of the late Triple Entente~whicl

with each of the four powers bound
to make no peace or peace terms
without the consent of the rest. The

cast her lot with the Teutous in spite
of her bitter grievances against Ser-

the strong man of Greece. who is eag-

ainst the Turk, may be restored‘to
power.
The Teutonic allies are already at
war actively with seven nations—
Russia, France, Great Britain, Italy,
Belgium, Servia and Montenegro, and
constructively with aJpsn and Portu-
gal. The entrance of Roumanla. Bul-
garia and Greece would make a lean
gue of twelve enemies. Such a ring
of. foes. it may be assumed, would
soon render AustriavHungary incap-
able of effective resistance, and finish
the work of taking Constantinople and
prostrating Turkey, leaving to Gen

The appalling nature of such a

when the full scope of this possible

,1! there were a clear distinction, plac-
ing a vernal definitely in one class or
the other somewhat as passenger and
freight trains are dietlnzuished in
rsllroad traflc. neutral nations would
have a far eesigr time forcing being
create to respect their rights.
This, suggestion is purely one of
avendiency. Thereis no internation-
al law or custom forbidding the carry.
lag of war munitions on ocean liners.
There is a federal law in this country
which forbids the carrying on passeng-
er ships, domestic or foreign, "Nitro-
glyoerine, dynamite or any other on.
ploslve article or Acompound or gun—
powder. or any article which would
the likely to endanger the health or
lives of passengers or the safety of the
vessel." But our national department
of commerce. long before this war
started, ruled that this, law permits
the carrying of small arms‘snd am-
munition, and under its ruling the
Lusitania was instilled in having in
her hold the cartridges, shells, etc., of
which German apologists have made
so mirth.
Legality or moral right is one thing,
however. and Wisdom is another. No
matterfwhst course of action the Ger-
pan government may take in the pre-
sent instance, everybody knows that
the presence on a passenger ship of
arms or ammunition intended for the
Allies will always be a powerful in-
centive to submarine attack.
While we are trying to make the Ger-
man admiralty obey international
law. it would do no harm to avoid
putting unnecessary temptation in its
way.
TH: LOOP BEAUTIFUL.
-Of all absurdities, the idea of beauty
in connection .valth Chicago‘s" ugly,
preposterous. But Chicago thrives on
absurdities. and nothing is preposter-
ous to a city whose motto is "i will.’
The "Mop beautiful" movement
started some summers ago with a. few
courageous people who put boxes of
flowers on their window sills in the
endeavor to mitigate the dinginess of
the district where they passed their
grown,- and now._ it has been taken up
by the Chamber of Commerce, which
urges that a window box is a business
asset. ‘
The idea of beautifying homes is
1 very old. But in America. at least, it ‘
is only very recently that any one
came to think that beauty coilld be
compatlble with work. The "factories
which- brightened up their surround-
ings iearned‘that beauty did not de-
tract from‘ eilicléncy. but 'added'to it.
If factories. why not offices? Why not

This is not s cst-rieh-euick‘aobene.
It is simply a plain statement of how
any industrious young man who not:
about it early ‘enongh can double his
income by middle life simply through
:5 weekly savings and wise invest-
ment of lbw from time to time.
After he has done this, he can stop
working and let his capital work for
him, or keep on working with it and
still further increase his fortune be-
fore he retires.
Let us assume that you are in your
twenties and that your are earning 620
a. week, 61,040 a year.
In order to equal that income
through 6 per cent. investments you
would need a capital of about 617,-
300.
Here is how you can do it before
you have passed y prime:
suppose you open a savings account
in a bank which pays 4 per cent inter-
est on savings. compounded, semi-an-
nuaily.

Whenever your principal and inter-
est equal or exceed 61,000, draw out
that sum and invest it in a first mort-
gage serial 6 per cent. a veer. psy-
able semantically. Likewise deposit
your mortgage interest in your new
ings recount. Icentinueflo ‘wlthdnw
and invest whenever your savings
account reaches the 61. 000 mark.
in 28 years your principal will out
ount to 917, 779 22 and your income
from this sum invested in good 6 per
cent. mortgages will be upwards of
620 a week. This is how it figures out:
.65 per week deposited in bank at
4 per cent. per annum compounded
null-annually will amount to 81.133.
