Within each nation, and for its better equipment in thostrife, thore must be self-sacrifice, public spirit, loyalty, patriotism. In proportion as these forces, together with intellectual and scientific knowledge and culture, are general, or are developed and ep couraged, the State will grow strong, and will hold its own. Everything must enforce that loyalty to the State. No private selfishness, no family ties, no religious belief must weigh against what concerns or affects the State's growing stronger and stronger. Morality ought to be encouraged within the State, because experience has shown it to be necessary if the State is to be efficient in the struggle, and so to survive and grow. Virtues of all kinds become a means to national existence and greatness. But the State itself, when thus hammered into shape and strength, has only one obliga tlon, and that is to itself, that it may grow and keep strong, and may be fit to hold the conquering place in the essen tial struggle for existence a struggle which is bound to go on, a straggle where in each State in the unit, and war is the arbiter and the deciding force.

THE IDEAL IN PRACTICE,

THE WOMAN'S HALF,

The war has taught even those who were asleep to the fact before that every girl should be taught a trade or profession by means of which she can earn her own living and work for the good of the com- munity, and where she competes with men to compete equally and fairly,

It now lies with the woman of today to see that the coming woman is properly trained, whether her trade or profession is to be domestic or public, whether she is to TH a cook or a doctor. a nursery-maid, a teacher, or stateswoman; whether she is of war would then be avoided.
