OUR CONTEMPORARIES.

Daily Press.

The Trade Boom. Perhaps the most interesting! communication on the subject is one furnished by Professor A. L Bowley, Reader in Statistics at the University of London, and one of the leading authorities on econ- valios. Professor Bowley attributes the present industrial aotivety to the occurence of several forces which have been pressing for the past ten years, e. the continual rise of prices which makea pro- duation profitable and manufac turers hopeful; the rise in the rate of interest which ecourages industrial investment; the nocum- ulation of savings which has made capital pleatiful; the well-orga nised reserve of machinery and workmen ready for action; the growing wealth of the world and of the United Kingdom in particular: These forces have been hindered by var- ious causes and their action delayed by labour disputes; but now, he says, there are no obsta- cles to prosperous industry at home or in the countries of Britain's chief customers. ·Ã¤~ tivity is natural to industry, and when hindrances and distrust are removed, is to bo expected.

Tho continuance of trade pro- apority is dependent upon many ifs," and unhappily the world seems to have become increasing ly liable to "political and financial shocks," that it is impossible to feel any confidence that the active period of trade will be more pro longed than on former occasiona At best, we can only hope it. will be so.

China Mail. England's "Thorny Problem.'

It is long past the time that religion and education should be: dissociated in elementary schools. predictions-bat unhesitatingly We are ever ohary of making we predict that Parliamentary cation, conducted as at present, discussion of elementary edu-

matter in less than half-a- will be a universal laughing century. Until it is omitted from Education Bills we sup posa that the interminable jangles of the past over the

weedledum" and the "tweedle- and the cost of the religious in- des" of the amount, the kind, struction to the tiny little tots of England will continueindefinitely. The whole affair has been a farce for a long time, and, therefore, it is sincerely to be hoped that the proposed legislation which the Prime Minister and the Chancellor of the Exchequer intend to in- troduce will thoroughly and effectively remove what has prove to be such a nuisance of a stumbling block in the past,

South China Morning Post, · Human Life In Terms of Powder. The Italian statistician Molli furnishes some very curious faota concerning the quantity of powder required to kill a man in war, From these it appears that on an nyorage betwees 100 and 150 big gunshots and as many as 3300 rifle and quick fire discharges go to a single fatal casualty. By way of illustration the Italian cites the example of the battle of Kinchow in 1904, wherein the Japanese compelled the Russians to evacuate the position which barred their way to the Kwantung peninsula and Port Arthar. The Russians fired 7789 shells from fort nad naval guns, 736;188 bal- lets and from quick-firers and a large quantity of shrapnel from... field-gons. The Japanese fired 401,149 times from big guns, and ⠀ four million piece of shrapnel, Reckoning the losses on both sides it is shown that to kill one Russian were required 161 projectiles and 3300 pieces of shrapnel and other bullets, and to kill one.
