Britain’s Warship Building

HERE is a straw which shows how strongly the war-winds are blowing, and, incidentally, by contrast the lack of real Christian spirit in the world. Great Britain, the most Christian country of the earth, is now building 87 war ships, with a total displacement of 318,612 tons, 53 of which are for her own service, 34 for other countries. The average tonnage is over 3,600. At two millions each they would cost the pretty sum of $174,000,000.
