From the Contemporary Review.

If there is a country where the tradition
of hatred of "the Englishman' as hered-
,tary enemy still holds, it is In Catholic
Brittany. In the eyes Of the Breton peas
ants and fishermen, the Englishman Is the
enemy with whom they have fought battles
and will fight them again. That is to say.
the Englishman stands for the typical sail
or of man-of-war or torpedo boat, whom
they will fight when the time comes for the
attack. but no one thinks of him as a man.
The enemy is a unit Of war, something
outside ordinary life. being in uniform

since all the men of France lose the best
years OF their youth in learning to kill this
eventual adversary. If ever the peasants
come clearly to realize that the only use of
war is to Kill people like themselves; IL
ever each soldier becomes capable of I'M
agining what the shock Of two armies 10,
and by what complicated series of lies and
intrigues peoples are brought to the point
of killing each other. the work of peace
congresses will be wonderfully simplifed.

and Sheridan Posts. 6. A r.. and the
Army and Navy Union. The graves of
the fallen heroes will be lovingly decor
ated with flowers by their surviving
comrades.
A Department Commander, who dep
recates the position too often shown to
make the day one OF recreation, in all
sorts of ways, rather than an occasion to
suitably remember the brave dead by
tokens of love and affection. says: +:
Thirty three years ago the beautiful
ceremony of strewing fragrant flowers
and holding solemn services over the
graves of our departed comrades was
first ordered by that peerless general,
John A. Logan, then commander-in-chief
OF the Grand Army of the Republic. The
rules and regulations Of our order now
require commemorative service on Me-
mortal Day. and, if impressed, as we
should be, by veneration for the heroism
displayed by those who have fallen. their
unselhsh devotion to country, their real,
fortitude and courage, and their great
sacrifices that the union OF these states
might be perpetuated. we shall make
this annual pilgrimage labor OF love
and affection. and not an opportunity for
games and hilarity.'
