The Force that Wins.. Many weeks have passed since the dread note of War first sound- ed upon the astonished ears of men. In the early days enthus- 18s ran high. Enlisting was great, and special arrangemente had to be made to cope with the hosts who rose up in the hour of the Empire's need. The authori ties were a little embarrassed and damped down the zeal of many, whether wisely or unwisely we need not discuss. The numbers of recruits fell off, and the alacken- ing caused a little anxiety. Now, however, that the Christmas festivities are over the numbers

Italy and the War.
With the threatened interven- tion of Roumania and Greece into the arena of war on the side of the Allies, the ultimate attitude of Italy becomes more than ever a subject for interested specula tion. For some time past there bas obviously been a growing desire on the part of the Italian people to range themselves against their old foe, Austria, and, though in the grouping of Powers that we now are on the field of battle the enmities and friendźhips of the past appear alike to have been forgotten, it will be found, on closer examination, that where boundaries have been arbitrarily set by the sword in defiance of. racial affinities à smouldering sense of hostility still endures on the part of the nation that has suffered in the operation. Italy oapno: but remember that she Owes something to the support of France and the sympathy of Eogland when, in the middle of the last century, she shook off the roke of Austria, and raised her eslf to the dignity of a nation. Nor is she likely to rest content with the role of a passive spectator when the sword has been sheathed. and the map of Europeiare-drawn.

It must be composed of units of approximately the same capacity of speed and climbing power; the range of its weapons sleo should be the same. As a connael of perfection, the fest should be of one design, mount- ing one standard type of gas, using one kink of ammunition. Owing to the need for moronaut- ical ascendency, we have seen/ that the armament cannot be of the heaviest; it may more often than not be individually less pow- The independent air flet must erful than that of its opponent.

Properly to assert the power of numbera, the whole fleet must come into action as nearly as pos- sible as a single unit; in brief it must concentrate the whole power of its combined fire on the numerically inferior enemy, and so take full advantage of the n' aquare law. No fleet can accom- plish this unless ita components cert; thus the slowest vessel in s are able to move and set in con- fleet must regulate its speed, sud the weakest armament the battle range.
