I1THEN Doctor William Osier said
V Thit gentlemen 'of forty-one -Wre
better numbered with the dead,
Because their useful work was done,
We took our grrandsire by the throat
- (The frail old fellow couldn't swim)
And threw him off a ferryboat i -.
"Three cheers," we said, "That settles html!
And though we missed the dear old man' .
Who thus was hastened to his rest, - ; - "
We dried our tears as people can - . '
Who know they acted for the best. '
Twas better far that he should die
And though his taking off was rude, i
For years we've been supported by " 4
The consciousness of rectitude.-
But now, alas, we read that men.
Don't reach their prime till sixty-eight
A time in their existence when
They understand affairs of state 1
, We feel that were the old man-here "
He might be famous and renowned;
And, though too late, we're 'Quite sincere

called "The Sword of Jesus," and In It
he aaya: i--.-,.. : j --, ,; :
"On the wall of my: study, opposite
my writing table, there hangs a pic
ture, a large reproduction of Hoffman's
'Christ. For all my writing years,
whenever the conditions under which
I have, worked have made It at all pos
sible, thia picture of Jesus has looked
down. upon me.
"At times, sad times, I have sensed

"Jesus waa. a man of peace.
"Tea. - But this does not necessarily
mean that he waa a pacifist. There
is a vast' difference between a man of
peace and a pacifist. . Between the
peace-at-any-price man and. the peace-
no-matterwhat-lt-oosts man there Is a
great gulf fixed.
"Tha man who said : Think not that
I am. come to send peace on earth; I

waa . certainly no peace-at-any-price

Jesus lived a man'a life among men.

Thia man of Galilee waa no slacker.
From hla cradle to hla cross, from

Speaking of the- atrocities in German

author of "Captured (George H. Doran

that an American audience could not
appreciate all the Canadian - and Eng

avoid doing work for tha Gorman gov

not be forced to do. They are tied up
to posts, are suspended in the air and
suffer other such hardships, the author
