We bav passed through vicissi tudes of feeling since the war be gan. During its earlier months we were immensely cheered by the ex traordinary gallantry of our young men. There has oeen noinmg uner in British history than the way In which nearly the whole youth bt the country came forward to serve their country. There has also been good reason for pride regarding their conduct in the war. From all I can gather there never was an army which reached so high a standard of good behavior under trying con ditions as did the British army in the late war. Offenses there were. one feels how enormous has been the change to the modern world and how entirely that change is due to the influence of Christianity. Even when things were worst in the mod ern world they never tank so low as they hal done in pre-Christian days, v Whenever we see a falling back towards the thought and prac tice of that pre-Christian world, it is a danger signal which warns us of the need for guarding the higher conception of sexual relations which Christianity gave. . - All these thoughts bring us back to the main thought what can we do to make our country a Christian country?

Dfatffofohlp There seems to be a great fall go ing out to us now to Christianise other peoples. To do this effectively we must begin by Christianizing ourselves. If the gospel Is the only light, then it is according to .the gospel that we must try to rule our own lives and induce others to do so The best way to move others is to set an example by following these precepts ourselves. However zealous we may be for the diffusion or the knowledge of the gospel s broad, ani however earnest our ef forts, after all, the most vitally es sential thing Is that we should try to infuse a Christian spirit into the society in which we live. Let us by all means continue our efforts to spread the light abroad, but let it Illuminate the individual life. It is from the individual in his Inner life and his social life, it is from the individual heart and will that all improvement must proceed.

Per sonally, 1 have utterly disapproved of the views of these objectors they seemed to me hopelessly : mis taken, sometimes even perverse. But many.ot them were obeying their conscience, trying to carry out what they thought the gospel precepts en joined, and they; ought, being per fectly; honest, however mistaken, to have received far more sympathetic consideration than was given to them. ' , ' Again, It was very .painful to see the way In which many of the enemy aliens were treated. I happen to. have a good knowledge of many of these cases, where people quite In nocent; Germans married to English wives, with English children men long settled among us; desiring to be English in every way and heartily in sympathy with us, men whose sons were serving in the war and dying in : our; cause -were treated with the ntmost severity, not only by the government, but by private persons. Even now these unfortu nate people cannot get employment. We ought to take that to our heart that we did not show that spirit of mercy which might have been ex pected from Christians. Moral Slump Since the War. ' Now we have come to the end of the war and the soldiers are home, end what do we see? Those who have the best means of knowing tell us that two moral epidemics are . visible all over England. One is an I . - t epidemic of crime, and especially of! waiter Kracke, manager of tne .robbery with violence. There has I Senators, has unearthed a dark been an increase in theft and all horse from the bogs of the minors forms of dishonesty, theft onrall-IMeh. may prove a thorn In the flesh ways, thefts in the postal service. 1' the Kerr-Giffords when they tan The other epidemic is even " worse. I with the Salem team on the ball It is a prevalence of sensual vice, aiamona at oxiora park this aiter- noon. jvracse s aara norse is jaca Farley who is reputed to be some twirler. The new acquisition to the Senator roster twirled on an all army team with creditable success, and Kracke says he has the goods. While the Senator pilot announced last night that Farley would be out in a Senator suit, it Is probable that Biddy Bishop will start on the mound In this afternoon's game. The fame of Biddy has spread and there are many of his admirers who desire to see him manipulate the saliva ball in a contest. Biddy claims that he is making a come-back, but there are many who believe that he Is staging an impressive beginning a sort of debut as a -pitcher. Teams that have contested with the Senators on the local lot invaded Salem with an abnormal desire to wallop the Salemites but their hopes were cookooed when confronted with the concerted attack of the lo cals. True it is, no "Babe" Ruth ea vorts on the local diamond smash ing home runs Into Polk county, but the Senators have men who are dan gerous in the pinches. They seem to have the knack of making blngles when men are perched on the hot corner dying with anxiety to punc tnre the home platter. The Senators have demonstrated their strength in several of the games In this regard The many wins credited to the Sena- tors is due to their ability to hit In the pinches Repeated successes.

At Sligo the rhalrman. a Sinn Fein M. P.. an nounced that all their actions would be guided towards the most effec tive means of clearing Britain out of Ireland. This council, like most of the councils, has made Irish language compulsory on all candidates lor of fice under the council. The councils have refused to nd minutes of pro ceedings to the iocaf government board, and will also refuse all Infor mation , to the Income tax depart ment. None of the councils would make any provision for the payment of the compensation for outrage awarded against the localities by the courts. At Roscommon it was decided to stop the salary of the sheriff to punish him for allowing military to occupy the court house. In many places the Republican flag was float ed over the council hall, and in some instances was then removed by the soldiers. In Mayo all the proceed ings were carried on In the Irish language. JSo far. the local government board which used to be very prompt In dealing with the local bodies, has turned a blind eye to the results or the new departure.
