Every civil and political institution of the world is passing through an ordeal in which it is tested as if in furnace tires. That a new order will arise out of the cinders of the present order is as certain as the progress of the seasons, as inevitable as the astronomical changes in the skies. The contest that is now on in the world is a contest to determine the place of man, as man, in the human drama. More exactly the question is whether the man of the future shall he slave or free." That one cent added to postal cards and letters, while only a mite to each |i -rson, becomes the peoples' mi^ht and will help to win the war. PROGRKSS OF THE WAR. Brazil, the twenty-first country to declare war against Germany, causes the St. Louis Star to say that the German people will bejpn to wonder if the kaiser is not at fault when almost the entire world is arrayed against him. The kaiser evidently wishes to imitate that other ambi tious tyrant who wept because there wore no more worlds to conquer. With the submarines losing their grip and Hrilish and French and American troops pushing the Germans back along all lines, the kaiser may weep because of defeat and disaster to bis hopes. His dream of a world empire may prove to be only a frightful nightmare. In this connection the Louisville Post, referring to the defeat of the Italians, says: "(lerniany has not conquered Russia nor Italy, and is no nearer to winning the war than she was before. She has gotten the best of another round, and perhaps delayed the decision, but the ultimate end of the tight is unchanged. What is more, she has not conquered the United States- and never will."

Since the beginning of the war the number of swine in all countries has decreased. hi France, for example, iri the three years just before January I, 1IH7, the number of swine decreased dH.12 per cent; during 1UI5 the number in Germany decreased 1.47 per cent. ItrccdiriK stocks are beinj? depleted ; WAR-ZONE HOMI "OVER-THERE" z. "War-Zone Home for That is the slogan which has been adopted by the National War Work Council of the Young Men's Christian Association which has extensive plans for carrying its recreational, educational, social and religious work to the hundreds of thousands of American troops who will go overseas to France this winter. The "Y" is already "over-there." Buildings have been constructed for the first American overseas expeditionary army and at the harbors of France for the navy. They are the nearest approach to home that General Pershing's and Admiral Sims' men find in all the foreignness with which they are surrounded. There they can write letters, read American newspapers and magazines, have their athletics, learn French, hold their Hihle classes.
