by the condition of the dead bodies
which are torn and unacceptable

steel plates of the bomb proofs were
torn to splinters by shells and dyna-
mite.
The work of removing the dead from
the slopes and crevasses OF 20S Meter
hill has been completed on the north
side. The south slopes are still COW
cred with bodies buried under the de-
bris of trenches and bomb proofs. The
long ines OF japanese dead laid out on
top of the hill and previous to inter
ment presented an awful spectacle. The
DO lies were partially naked and horri-
bly, torn by dynamite.

ance. with the currents and tunnels OF

A HOPE FOR THE FUTURE
CONDUCT OF CAMPAIGNS

DESPITE THE FACT that the election is oyer and the people
have rendered their verdict, there are, unfortunately, some men
who continue to throw mud at the successful as well as the un-
successful candidates. II Is indeed deplorabe that such conditions
exist. 1t is perhaps truthful that into each of cur lives some dark
shadows have fallen, and very few there are whose lives will bear
the strong searchight of public scrutiny and reveal in the inner
crevicesy an unsulied and untarrished existence. 1T more than
possible that many things have crept into our lives in the heat OF
passion to satisfy some weakness which have often caused a
hcartache, pain, regret aud remorse. Such is the penalty attached
to a violation OF a law of Nature. There has lived but one man
who was sinless and that man was Christ Himself
Man has sinned from the beginning. Never yet has there been
found a character 5t spotless white, a conscience without a single
stain and SO will it be until the end of time. when the day of res
direction shall reveal many strange and star ding secrets that the
mantle of human i~nddeIty has hidden from the gaze OF fellow
creatures.
It We're foolish for any one to say that the severe. and often
times unjust, criticisms Of fellow creatures axe not humilating
=" Mans inhulDanily to mans caused countless thousands mourn =
And it often occurs that the vtuperative remarks hurled at a
mans character come from sources whose lives have been stepped
in sin and souls ofso gross a mould, they know as much of pur
iv as wallowing swine Of cleanliness. My, how they rave if on Il
robe of white they find a single stain
Man was created in The image OF God, hut not as God, and it
was ordained that he should sin. There are many WAYS of sin
ming and we do not believe that all sins constitute a crime. nor do
we believe that on account ofa persons shining where he alone
will be held to answer III the world to come and where no crime
against the law OF man has been committed, that he should be
made the victim Of slanderous tongue. Is there one OF us, yes,
one, who has rot now OF who never had a weakness, or who has
not at some stage IN his career given way to Il passion or a sin
that has, perhaps. caused him the bitter pangs of remorse.
May there come a day IN this worlds history when mud-sing-
ing shal. be conspicuous by its absence, when the poll cician will
be judged solely upon his honor, his ability and integrity.
You who read this feeble effort cast a glance baekwar into
your own lives and If, GU belong 10 the class hat detames remem-
Der in the language Of the bible, Let them that are free of sin

high-minded position he had
