The risk of a groat European war will probably remain, growing gradually lees acute, till about 1930. The Avars of a modern nation tend to recur at intervals of a generation, or, say, 30 years. Ihe generation that has been through one great war generally wants no more ; but the new generation, hearing of the glories of the contest, but having known nothing of its horrors, hums to emulate its fathers. If, however, the bio- WiXr can be held off for another full generation, a race will have grown up that has known and hoard of nothing but peace.—World.
