last Sunday morning in discussing the
subject of 'Watchfulness and Good
Works" He said although the old
soldiers are dead or passing away

bravery, this nat ion, one of the great

ether. But we are now united

A NEW ERA OF GOOD FEELING.

The great increase in the past few
weeks in the number of nations which
have given recognition to the Cuban
republic ought to be very gratifying
to that country, as it is to the United
States. The nations which, along to
this time, have done this were the
United States, England, France,
Spain, Switzerland, Hayti, Nicaragua,
Costa RIGA and Guatemala. There is
an especial reason for qualification in
the circumstance that Spain is among
the number of the countries which
have extended the hand of welcome to
the new nation. 1t is commonly hard
for any country to look leniently on
its own rebels, though George III. did
this quickly in the case of the United
Statesyfpbed ing time passed before
SGN M that in the case of the
Central and South American countries
which broke away from her three
quarters of century ago.
A distinctive advance has thus been
made in international comfy in the
lapse of time. There was a special
reason why the United States should
have been ready to extend the hand of
fellowship to the ex-Spanish peoples
OF the first quarter of the nineteenth
century, for it was UNITED States ex-
ample which melted them to strike
for liberty. 1t was 1922, however,
before the United States did this in a
formal way, while some Of the coun-
tries affected had been physically in
dependent of Spain at that time for
two or three years. When at last the

Peru, Buenos Ayres and Chill reached

made by that body, and soon this
country had embassies in all those
nations. The case of Mexico was Pc
