10 6 H mlAXITY IX WAR. 9. Th e ru de game of war is being tempered more and more by the spirit of hum ani ty. Civilized na tions have agreed to prohibit th e use of exp losive bull ets, which, like th e poisoned alTOWS of th e savage, prolong and aggravate th e agonies of the wound ed. Hu manity has also led to th e improvement of appliances for th e relief of th e sick and th e wound ed. Th e field-hospita l with its sta ff of nurses , and the ambulance-wagon with its attendant surgeons, ar e now as importan t in th e equipment of an army as th e ammunition-wagon and the field-battery. 10. Th e most cheering proof, however, of the ad vance of civilization is th e growing desire of th e Great Powers to settle th eir disputes, not by war, but by arbitration and mutual agreement ; and when one thinks of it calmly, th e decision of int ernational differences by war- th at is to say, by th e slaughter of hu ndreds or of thousands of men who have little kn owledge of, or interest in, th e quarre l-seems tc be a savage mode of proceeding, and altogeth er un worthy of the civilized nati ons of th e world. hu-man-i-ty com-bi-na-tion a-tro-ci-ties hu-mane/ <strong>cr</strong>ed -i-ta-ble ac-ci-den-tal ser-geant pit-e-ous-ly grat-i-tude res-cu-ers pro-h ib-it ag-gra-vate ap-pl i-an-ces am-bu-lan ce sur-geons am-mu-nt-tion ar-bi-tra-tion mu-tu-al de-cl-sion in-ter-na-tion-a \\' ORD E X ERCI SE : - 1. ~I ak e sentences showing the various uses of the 'Word term , an d give 8 list of compound words formed from it. 2.
