Always Alert to Spy Out Spies S' Constant Vigil Kept Against Foreign Prying. Washington.—The publicity given to the recent arrest of a former naval officer and the conviction of a former naval petty officer, both charged with espionage, have fo cused attention on a war behind the scenes that is constantly but secretly waged in the United States as well as in other nations. It is a war of espionage versus counter-espionage, spy and under cover man versus agent and officer, and it rarely breaks through the screen of mystery that surrounds it. It is probably safe to say that spies never won a war. Most major powers, however, maintain rather elaborate organiz tions for collect ing and classifying information about the political, economic, social, military, naval and aviation develop ments of other countries. Consular and diplomatic representatives, commercial attaches, military and naval attaches and paid agents, or spies, all unite in the task of ob taining as much information as pos sible about every conceivable form of activity. Military and naval se crets are zealously sought after, and are m turn, carefully guarded. With the increasing world MADE PERFECT SCORE and the strengthening of our mili tary and naval establishments, the war behind the scenes has com menced even in democratic Amer ica. The office of naval intelligence of the Navy department has avail able for the 4 ‘collection and classifi cation of information” during this fiscal year about $100,000 more than was appropriated for this purpose during the year just ended. Apd “G-2,” or the intelligence service of the army general staff, has been active in Panama, Hawaii, the Philippines and in the continental United States. In this secret "war” the romanti cized secret service plays, in peace time, little or no part. Upon their own officers and en listed men (mainly the officers), the two services largely depend for the direction of counter-espionage acti vities, although both act in (Idlest collaboration with the govern ment’s "policemen” of the Depart ment of Justice. The "G-I” officers handle the army’s activities and officers spe cially assigned to intelligence duty act in the same capacity for the navy. The army has at least one intelligence officer at every poet of any aaze; the navy has intelligence i officers in every district and on ! duty with the fleet at sea. Te Prevent Leakage. While these officers are active In counter-espionage work, they are interested also in the establishment of regulations to prevent leakage of our own secrets.

BARRETT - ‘T am too busy to die,” so said George Bernard Shaw upon his eightieth birth day. An intense ly interesting statement! Per haps such an ut- t e r a n c e ex pressed in sincer ity and faith, re veals to the read er some of the reasons why the noted writer has arrived at his eightieth birth day. It was a great occasion in Literary circles. Many persons in both the academic and secular world joined in the cel-^ ebration. Doubtless the most fasci nating person present was Mr. Shaw himself, hale and hearty st eighty. Robust health is universally con ceded to be one of the most im portant requisites for a ripe old age.

This does not mean that they should be considered more than their el ders. Not at all. But it does mean that they should be made comforta ble, and have their wishes granted when they do not conflict with health or interfere vrith proper rou tine or discipline. It seems t diffi cult matter to keep the balance even in a home between spoiling children and ca tering to them in a reasonable way. They seem to rule a home or be too much ignored. Either of these things is a mistake. The comfort of little folk is wise ly c o n s i dered when chairs are of the right size for their minia ture physiques.

There are those who are privileged to have both time and money, but it is only after time has been put into work to make money that leisure to en joy the money follows. There are many instances among the wealthy where time and money both are at their disposal. These persons are enjoying the fruits of time spent in work by other people—it may be by parents, or by ancestors. It is well for us to understand this relation existing between time and money. Then we realize if we have time that we can make use of as we will, that we are fortu nate. How eagerly persons who are pressed for time long for an oppor tunity similar to ours! Let us en joy our pivilege. If we are "up to our ears” in work, we are trans muting time into money, and for this we can be grateful. In either instance we can see there are cer tain benefits for is to enjoy while they last, and which have time as a factor. Homemaker's Privilege. The homemaker has the opportu nity to dispose of her time to suit her needs and her wishes more then most persons. She may have little money at her command. This is all too frequently the case. Time, however, is at her disposal. It Is she who decides what days she will have her laundering done, her cleaning, etc. Regularity in some things has to be observed, but in others she can dictate. She does not have to do her Iron ing on a sweltering hot day. Per haps a few pieces may be required, end must be done, but that la all. She can do many tasks In the cool of the day, and rest m the hottest part, as those living In the tropics have to. When homemakets set a true value on their time, they will discover that they have privileges that the wage earner* find enviable. • b»u evaewsi* —wmv a>rw—.

Of course, there are exceptions. Robert Louis Stevenson did most of his finest work while suffering from an incurable disease, but he was a rare exception. A sluggish mind may be due to patho logical conditions and an uninspired soul, to the absence of beneficent influences. No, if we want to do good work and especially so in ad vanced age, we must see to it that the realities by which we live min ister to' the strength of both soul and body. Work and plenty of it keeps the spirit young. Nothing is more self destructive than idleness. "De prived of work, people exhaust themselves like crazed animals beating against their bars, even when the cage is of their own mak ing.” A shallow pool is always stagnant. A motionless stream soon becomes the center of miasma. Ac tivity is the secret of contentment. A prominent physician wrote that work had cured "that trembling palsy of the soul which results from vacillation, fear and worry.” The problem of retirement which confronts us when we reach our three score years and ten gives ns serious concern. For well do we know that retirement from active toil predicates an early "passing on.” To grow old grandly may be within the reach of every person if work keeps alive the forces of courage, faith and love. Yes, we mast leve oar work if we weald con tinue active te the end. We live as much by ideals, moti vating impulses and high purposes as by bread. The phyaical body needs food; so does the heart and soul. A starved soul cannot reach very far. ‘Too busy to die. " Mag nificent!
