And it is imperative that we -should

We are to beware of alt men who
would turn the tasks and the ueecssi- j
ties of the natiou to their own private;
profit or use them for the building up '
of private power; beware that no fnc- j

our people; iieware mat our govern- j

all its parts. I'niled alike in the con

resolve to perform it in the face of
nil men, let us dedicate ourselves to
the great task to which we must set
our hand. For myself, I beg your
tolerance, your countenance and your
united aid. The shadows that now
lie dark upon our path will soon be
dispelled and we shall walk with the
light all about us if we be but true to
ourselves to ourselves as we have
wished to be known in the counsels of
the world nnd in the thought of all
those who love liberty and justice and
the right exalted.

LONDON, March G Colonel Wins
ton Spencer Churchill, former first
lord of the admiralty, said in the
house of commons today that from
the momoit Rulgarla entered the war
and Germany obtained a through

have been obvious that the size of the
armies needed at Saloniki to achieve
decisive results exceeded the carry-
