Those summer cv were beautiful. I always had a passion for the north, for trees and water and silent places. I felt this pas- sion strongly in those long, light- filled dusks that lingered softly after the sun went down, There was peace then, pure and sweet, and a wonderful quiet lying on the land like a benediction. And

fortnight ago Lord li(’1l\'(‘l'l)l‘UOi(, Mr. Henry Ford and others were loud in their protests that there would be no war, the \\'l>il being father to

Germany Then And Now

A writer in Harper's Magazine gives a strik- ing crmip.-irisiin of the Germany of today with the Lit‘l‘lll.'lll}' that went to war in August, 1914.

That tici'iii:iii_v, it is pointed out, had an army 1')0llFll(‘.'l mid perft-ctetl for decades until it was a glcaiiiiiig precisioii iiistrument. Every able l)ll(ll(‘(l male in the country was a trained mem- ber of it. Its cadres of officers were complete from top to bottmii, so that 100 first—class divi- sinus could be placed in the field at once, to be rapidly filled out to 200. It had a long—d_eter— mined strategic plan to cover a war on both western and eastern fronts, with a magnificent railway system tailored to measure and the staff work prepared down to the last detail. It rode high on a tradition of victory over the chief military powers of Europe,

Supporting this great land force, Imperial Geriiiany llflll a navy large enough to protect her coasts, to raid enemy commerce on the seven seas, and present a real clizillenge in battle to such ‘forces as Britain could maintain in the North Sea. Behind this war machine and supplying it when war limke out was :1 blooming economy, large stories of rziiv iiiaterials, a steel production (togetlier with .\1i<tri.1-lluii;v_ary's) greater than

that of llritaiii, France and Russia combined and.

on (ll>lll(‘\'iiC ores, a flourishing foreign trade, large invesiiiieiits and many warm supporters and suppliers in neutral couniries almiarl, and a billinii-dollar golileii war chest.

The pnpiilziiinn on the whole accepted the war with eiitliusiasm. emifident in an early and glori- ous \'it‘ll>l'_\'. l7I'f‘\‘li anti well-fetl at the begin- ning, the (‘r¥ililll‘y proved able tc support four years of terrific strain.

lliiler's ('.<-riiinn_v is so much more ferocious and ii-igliteiiiiig thriii \\'illieliii's that it is not ap- parent at first sight how much weaker it really is—~for actual iv.-irfare, that is. (For the kind of baiiditry ii has been practising, it is im- nietiscly strong).

The army is short of officers of every rank, but particularly lli.’l_lUl‘S, lieutenant eolonels and Colonels. Lietiieimiits and captains have been made out of the mrpnrals and sergeants of post- war [)f'(lf(‘S<lflllIll R(‘if‘llS\\'(’l1l", but it has proved quite illlpnssilllf‘ in build up the magnificent cadres fliltl staff org.'iiii'/.:ition of the 1914 army in six short years. Many of the reserves have had only :1 hasty sir<—weel<s training and behind them lie the 17 aimunl classes between 24 and 41 years of age, largely uiiirained.

Nor is the same bulk of man—power available for service, despite the ncquisitiori of Austria and Suiletciilamlz the Gerinnn authorities estimate that, on accnuiit of the greater industrial de- mands of iiiodcrii warfare, they will be able to put only about six million men in uniform in place nf ten million last time.

Far from becoming a lost art with llie demise of the sailing ship, tzittooiiig is t<.(lay as popular as ever with men who follow the sea.

News came from New York that s big metropolitan art display showed that Canadian painters are more interested in scenes of nature than in politics or surrealism. And on the heels of this ‘report: a native artist, arriving in Montreal, com- plained to the press that his fel- lows in the Dominion are too con- cerned with depicting horses and slelghs. They are, he implied, the drab motif of the national palette. The gap between "art for art's sake" and the tastes of the average individual has never been bridged, and it is not likely that it ever will be. Yet there are many who woutd take both of the above items as rather complimentary to Canadian artists. The world is full enough of propaganda disguised as art. of grotesque plcturizations of social and political and other kinds of prejudices, without adding more to it. As for the cult that made this grotesqueness 'fa3hicnable,“ not even the most naive of lay- men would accept: the doctrine

Hamilton Specta-

llarry C. James. of Alta- finders School for boys, believes that camping is good training in self-reliance. He is also an en- thuslast on western history, so he combines the t/wo ideas by taking boys on Summer tours along trails followed by Coronado through New Mexico and Arizona. G-arces along the Colorado, and Fremont in California. Last year he led a group of 20 boys on a Summer-long expedition from Fort Benton, Montana, to the Pacific along the route of the Lewis and (Clark expedition of 1804-05, Packed _ln with the camping equipment ‘were copies of t-he journals in which the explorers described their lpathfinding journey. By day the boys followed the trail in cars over

rough mountain roads or hiked cross-country, stopping at land- marks the explorers had noted.

By night they gathered round the ,csmpfire to read the quaint, misspelled journals which told how Cltpmiri Lewis had sighted the Shining Mountains -— looking just as the boys had seen them that morning -— how he had straddled the tiny stream which is the head- waters of the mighty Missouri river (the boys did, too.) —5unset Magazine.
