THE COST OF WAR Through all time war has told the same story. Sophocles once said, two thousand years ago: War does not of choice destroy bad men, but good men ever. Schiller said : Der Krieg vershlingt die Besten. An old French proverb says the same: Ce sont toujours les memes, qui se font tuer. (It is always the same who get themselves killed. ) In our civil war. Captain Brownell tells us of: The deeper green of the sod Where we left the bravest of us. John Easten Cooke, in Virginia, when Pelham fell at Kelly ' s Ford, calls out: O band in the pine woods, Cease with your splendid call; The living are brave and noble, The dead are bravest of all. Again, in India, Bartholomew Dowling: Cut off from the land that bore us, Betrayed by the land we find. When the brightest are gone before us And the dullest are left behind. So stand to your glasses steady; This world is a world of lies. Here ' s a cup to the dead already. And Huzza for the next that dies! The same motive, the same lesson, lasts through all ages, and it finds keen expression in the words of the wisest man of our early history, Benjamin Franklin, Wars are not paid for in war time : the bill comes later. DAVID STARR JORDAN.
