China's Civil Service. Onstruit of the period of chaos of the revolution and of the early days of the Republie this has not yet been eradicated, shows itself is the number of men still remaining in offices which they entered, so to speak, by the back door. Where, during the re volution, a local official did not show himself willing to throw in his lot with the new power and enlist under the Republican ban- ner, his term of office was, na- turally prematurely brought to an end, and, as a rule, some local personsgein favour with the revolutionary leaders
Uputin his place. The resnis, is tast to this day there are, up..
down China, many magistraten und higher officials who possess no legal qualifications for the pesta into which they then drifted, and
many OSTRE the Chiness constitutional tradi tion is broken through and men are holding administrative posts in their own provinces somatimit even in their own towns. The former of these irrogulstilies is not necesarily important, but the latter, as the Chinese have long realized, opene the door for many abuses-for nepotism, for underground in- fluence, and for the subversion of official powers to private ends.

Science la Warfare,
It is evident to all that the everity of the present confict is primarily
the ontcome of the very arte and industries to which it is dealing & knookout blow. Taking a purely toientific view of the War, a writer in the "Times" Engineering Supplement to hand points out the fact that modern science is largely responsible for modern warfare. In the course of this articleitis observed that every advance of engineering, while the ends of civilization and pros- being directed primarily toward
|ified warlare by extending the parity, has facilitated and intans
means of transport and communi- cation an regards both speed and capacity, by overcoming obstales such as sess, "rivers, and mount- sins, and by placing enormous physical forces at the disposal, of man. To go no farther back than the time of the Franco-Prussian War of 1870, the difference in the conditions is very striking, "At the earlier date, mechanisms which are playing an important. airships, aeroplanes, motor-cars, part in the present war, anokh as
submarine craft, torpedoes, the telephone, and wireless tele- graphy, were unknown or in their infanoy and the motive which prompted the invention” or development of most of them was
tion not destruction.
