PLANES AND WARSHIPS
mjo MATTER what one may think
IN about the advisability- of main-
taining a large navy, there is a
thrill furnished hv the sight of
great fighting ships that is not
unite like any other thrill on earth.
As a pure spectacle, a navy is in a
class by itself.
» New York has been getting this
thrdl lately, with the visit of the
United States fleet to the Hudson
ri,V;.T. Some five do^en warships

To meeting them there came a

the steady purr of their raptors
filling the air as the swooped to

British and‘French general staffs
laid plans for the violation of Bel-
gian neutrality In the event of war
with Germany.
Georges demenceau—the same
“Tiger" who called down the
wrath of humanity on the heads of
the Germans for sending an army
through Belgium-—urged King Ed-
ward VII to he ready to send 300,-

would create a welcome diversion
from the expected German assault
on the French frontier.
“Generals at the front in war
time,” said M. Clemenceau, “have
no time to think of such small mat-,
ters as neutrality and international
agi'epnipntf.’1
Which remark sounds strangely
in tune with that famous ‘scrap of
paper” spe- h whlClt helped so
greatly to prystallize world senti-
ment against Gerrilan'y in 191-1.
To be sure, this disclosure does
not really make Germany’s action
much less heinous. The French and
British only talked about it; Ger-
many actually .did it. Nevertheless,
no one can read of it without suf-
fering a profound shock.
Tlie violation of Belgium's neu-
trality was the one thing that
brought England into the war. The
British public would never have
consented to being led into the
conflict if it had not been for that
event. To learn, at this late date,
that the British government had
planned to do the same tiling is
very disturbing.
It is too late to do anything about
| it, of course. But we get a new
light on the characters of the vari-
ous “statesmen” who were in
«tiarge of Europe's (jnstiny in the
days that, led up to the war.

j testing the count.
Tabulation Already Begun
Pielimimny work In the tabula-
tion of the population has already
begun. This is the coding of the
schedules, marking numerical sym-
bovs in red upon each entry to
guide card-punchers. After that
come the three main operations of
tabulation—paudiing. sorting and
tabulation.
Each schedule is first put in a
h ddf ;• and the operator feeds each
line direct] yimo her line of vision
by means of a footpedal. Using the
mil ,s she punches combinations
ol holes into special cards, which,
( nipleied. represent a condensa-
tion of all tlie census facts about
each individual Every person in
the country lias his or her imli-
v. teal card, although at tills point
the i cunt the identity is lost and
retained only on the schedule.
The „re then piled into
sci :i:.c ... chines, which, in accord-
ance with the arrangement of the
symbolic holes, drops them into
boxes with r. gat'd to such sneeifY-a-
tions as sex. race, nativity and na-
tionality of parentage.
Finally the cards are fed into a
tabulating machine which at the
rate of seven cards a second tabu-
lates as many as 60 combinations
of facts at a time.
Probably 7,000 persons will be
engaged in this -business of count-
ing, which begins with the first
t-ard-punchings In May. About 3#.
000 persons look the junior clerk

Roanoke, Va.—"Some years ago,
I was In a very run-down condi-

533 Nelson Street, S.E., this city
"I suffered a great deal with
pains in my sides and back. Stand-
ing on my feet hurt me so much,
that 1 would get very weak and
nervous.
“I knew that If I didn't get some-
thing to help me, I would have to
go to bed and stay there, which is
hard to do for a woman who has
small children. So I kep.t drag-
ging about, until one day. when
feeling unusually bad and dis-
couraged, I happened to pick up
a little book with a Cardui adver-
tisement. t decided I would try it..
"Cardui seemed to build me up
at once, as I was able to do my
work with ease, and was rid of tlie
pain by the time I had taken six
bottles.
“I have taken Cardui since then,
whenever I (elt that I needed a

Behold the
Stranger!
A slraiiKcr moves to your neighborhood. You observe him
tolerantly, but with no immediate display of interest. You
are an established resident, getting along very nicely before lie
came.
Hut you do not avoid him. For reasons not entirely unselfish
you wait for him to reveal himself. Possibly he may add some-
thing to your social and business life. Possibly he will take
a highly respected place in the community. He may even lie-
come one of your intimates. It is up to him.
So you note his manners, talk with him, and form an opinion.
If he comes up to your requirements, you accept him. and often
he proves a welcome addition to your group of friends.
It is with exactly the same attitude that the intelligent news-
paper reader regards the advertisements of products new to
him. These strangers may add something to his civilized enjoy-
ment. They may contribute to his comfort, safety—even his
success* In many ways they hay prove valuable. Certainly it
is wise to give them careful consideration.
Head the advertisements in the daily newspapers. They ipay
be the means of introducing you to products that will take
important places in your life. And every day they will give
you information that enables you to buy intelligently and make
your money go farther.
