As the limitation of armament conference at Washington draws to a close, its apparent barrenness of results is a subject of criticism for many observers. The question conies been wide up, has the conference enough in scope or has it been spending its time on a subordinate phase of the war question in which no permanent results are possible without the deeper, changing underlying phases? The chief woik of the conference has been the limiting of naval armaments. What has been accomplished? The capital ships, dreadnoughts and battle cruisers, have been limited to a definite ratio fur the five big powers, flood but naval experts ;m debating the value (f bis ships and a large number now declare them absolute. During the world war the big ships stayed hugely in guarded harbors and the auxiliary craft did the fighting. It appears that the warships that will count in the future are the auxiliaries, the submarines, the destroyers, the airplane carriers. The building competition that appears likely to burrow into the pocUotbook of the taxpayers! from now en will be in these craft. What has been dene to limit this class? Tt has been tentatively agreed with reservations, that no auxiliary craft It has been discovered that the North Tole is sixty feet out of position.

Her eyes were fixed en apace ; ahe hardly breathed; it almost seemed as If her heart was stopped. Richard went downstairs, surprised to feel still vaguely unsatisfied. He had had his word with Harriet, had said Indeed much that he had not expected to say. However, It was much better to let the world know their relationship; he was perfectly satisfied to have it so. But still, as he settled himself to an hour's reading, the plaguing little Impulse persisted. He would like to go upstairs again; he missed her companionship.
