This sentimental tribute was, no doubt
worthily bestowed by the poet; but 1t Is a
prosaic fact that large numbers OF COR far

charms, because they do not try and con-
ouer the disorders peculiar to their sex, and

THE TERROR OF BATTLE.

Personal Experiences Illustrating the
Reality of the Situation.
During the war we used to read of
companies falling back, regiments Civ
ing ground, and brigades becoming de-
moralized, and the average reader took
it for cowardice and openly expressed
his contempt No man ever went into
battle twice alike. No company, regiment
or brigade were ever situated twice
alike. A man may be Fery brave in one
battle and very timid in the next. His
physical and mental conditions have
much to do with it. A private soldier
knows the position of his entire brigade
in fight If the position is strong
one he is encouraged; if the TANKS are
exposed or the defenses are weak he is
nervous and apprehensive-
1t is a grand stake the soldier plays
for in battle. If he wins he may live
on until the next fight. If he loses he
gets a headstone in a National ceme-
terry. can not make you understand
the situation better than to give you
personal experiences. The great major

passed through the same experiences.

Sunday Services.

Sunday services were conducted by Rev. Father
NJ E. Murphy. The subject of his discourse was
upon the tendencies Of men to withdraw from the
light of divine truth and seek for happiness in
worldly things. The following is brief outline
| of his sermon:
Men love darkness rather than light because
they are not enlightened by the spirit of the Holy
Ghost Their hearts are selfish and they seek the
sensual pleasures of this world instead of search
ing for divine truths and following the teachings
of Him who has proclaimed Himself the Light
of the world.'
The man who is born blind can understand but
little of the form of things in general and knows
nothing of the different colors. The earth's sur
| face may be explained to him, Its mountains and
valleys, lakes and rivers, birds of beautiful plum
age, bright flowers and the star-gemmed canopy of
Heaven He may be told of all these things and
yet he will have but faint conception of the
beauties of Gods creation, for he is physically
blind. And so it is with those who are spirit
ually blind, they cannot understand the peace and
happiness of the soul that is filled with Gods
sanctifying grace. There countless numbers
of men, not those of barbarian races alone who
are in intellectual darkness, but men in this
Christian land of enlightenment, who have cast
out Gods spiritual light from their hearts in the
pursuit OF worldly vanites. AS the beauties of
color are mystery to the physically blind. so are
they who are spiritually blind ignorant of Gods
glorious and sublime truths: but when the light of
Gods sanctifying grace shines within their hearts
they become possessed of all of worth that this
world contains and have the blessed assurance of
an eternal inheritance in heaven.
