And wa know that Mr. Ruby wa sincere in expressing this sentiment.

Bearing these things In mind, tha thought now occurs to Tha Citizen that no greater Impetus could ba given this movement than that which the public schools could give. The people of Aghevffle know by experience that tlie public schools of Ashe villa have turned out on several occasions with choruses so meritorious aa to attract favorable comment from musical critics. Wo fully believe that the co-operation of the school authorities with all musical Interest! of Asheville would do mora to bring shout perfect accord and harmony than any other action wo could mention. Is not euch an effort worth while? Or shall we go on and on, tAlklng and writing to no purpose? It Is hard, indeed, to believe that In city so cosmopolitan as our own there Is not enough musical Interest to bring about the organisation of a chorus as large nd as good as any In the Sonth. W.

Tha number of troopa to be employed would ba limited only by the transport facilities, and there are several nations which could more more than 100,000 troops across the ocean. "The small slse, however, of our defensive army Is not Its only weakness-It Is notoriously deficient in field artillery, aeroplanes, transport equipment and ammunition. In tha winter of 1918-13, while secretary of war, I laid before the military committee of the house of representatives facts showing that at that time tha total number of field guns In our possession.

Tha battle of Mukden was one between the Russians and Japanese ten years ago. It bore small comparison In the number of men engaged or In Its fatalities to some of the events in tha present great European struggle. But tha Russians In that battle were (,000 miles from home and had been transported over a single line of railroad.

It Is much easier to transport soldiers In ships across the S.000 miles of ocean between Europe and America.
