ED ED trevâ€" en I Street, EFED Â¥o TEACH a 1B Â¥ H 1P NOTES AND COMMENT S The peace strength of the Gerâ€" man army will be very little short of 900,000 men when the latest legâ€" hhtionhnboonpnthtofnlld- fect. And this statement does not begin to cover the tremendous fact of Germany‘s preparedness for war. Her strength is not measurâ€" ed alons in numbers. It is measâ€" ured also >y other elements of true prepue*‘nossâ€"dtciplim and â€" orâ€" wanization. Ro great is this that when the latest law has been put into full effect, Germany will be able to put approximately 300, 000 trained men on her French border in thirty hours or less. This means actually what it says, that this wreat force will be ready to move in a day and actually moved withâ€" out confusion or delay by railroad wchedules always prepared to posiâ€" tions on the French line in two or four hours more. This fact, the significance of which can be appr®â€" ciated even dimly by considering what the administrative complexiâ€" ties of such a performance must be, gives a vivid meaning to the phrase, ‘"Europe is an armed camp.‘"‘ Besides, Germany‘s more than | 800,000 men with the colore, she has in the reserves 4,370,000 trained men, and when the full results of the law of 1913 have been completâ€" ed, that is, in 1937, she will have a fully trained reserve of 5,400,000. The building up of this vast power has been the work of years, a work persistently and consistently carâ€" ried forward year by year, upon & fix>d principle of increase. This principle is that there shall be of privates with the colors in peace about 1 per cent. of the population. Thus the law of 1913 provides for ubout 661,000 privates. tablishment of have been won the 1913 is supposed to be based on the military results of the Balkanâ€" "Curkish war, since somewhat modiâ€" fied by the interâ€"Balkan war, upon the weakening of Austriaâ€"Hungary, and the methodical growth of the Russian army, Germany groans and takes up the increased load. The chancellor, explaining the bill, said : ‘"The ‘sacrifices will be heavy. God has assigned to the (German people a place in the world and a role in history which demand conâ€" tinual sacrifices, Our pride should make us bear them with good heart." Substitute for Daylight in Many s Businesses. 1 Dr. Herbert E. Ives, a prominent scientist of Philadelphia, claime to |. have invented a substitute for dayâ€" light. He has been at work for a}| dozen years at the research laboraâ€" tories of the city‘s gas plant, and finally has produced, he says, & light which has passed the test and is in every way equal to sunshine | and the light of day. He has de signed a powerful incandescent lamp with a special mantle which is so placed in the top of a speciallyâ€" made cabinet that its rays are imâ€" mediately beneath a reflector. This is made of metal and the light is forced downward through & series of delicately colored screens. In telling of his discovery, Dr. Ives said: ‘‘My recent invention has a field of usefulness in certain industrics, such as textile manufacâ€" turing, dyeimg, color printing and similar arts. In color printing the vresses can be run only so long as is in every W and the light signed a p lamp with & s eve P n oo Lace d C I the ink put in by daylight lasts. | 1 With the aid of my invention the | s prosses can be run every hour of the twentyâ€"four.

Surgery is another fheld of usefulness. _ The color of tissues cannot be detected by artiâ€" ficial light. Surgeons depend wpon the color of tissues to tell whether they aro diseased or not, and as a consequence major -urgic:lmxen- tions can now be perfo: at night. The invention can be made in various forms to be used for difâ€" ferent purposes.
