language and Nationality.


Since the beginning Of history no
nation which has not been saturated
in all parts with one language has en-
ioyed a secure and peaceful solidarity
and subject nations and races have
sometimes regained independence by
preserving their mother tongue. Po-
litical divisions between the nations
follow differences in language rather
than differences in race or religion.
One language may do for two nations,
as in the case Of Belgium and France,
Austria and Germany, Great Britain
and the United States. But two Ian.
guages seldom subsist together in har
mony inside one political unit. The
Magyars Of Hungary for years have
protested against the use Of German
as the official language. Poland, polti-
cally divided into three parts under
Russia, Germany and Austria, IS uni
ted by the Polish language, and from
the Polish point Of view, no other
act Of the German government is 50
oppressive as the effort to In lose the
German language on Polish school

kiewicz, the Polish novelist, in the

SPRING

The dreary winter has passed away.
The happy warblers sing,
The Southern breezes softly blow
And tells us now tbs Spring.
oh welcome lovely Spring time,
So cheerful, bright and fair,
The landscape now is beaming
With beauty rich and rare.
The charms OF spring are wonderful,
All nature now seems glad,
After the chilly winter days
So lonely dark and sad.
The bleak and dreary winter,
1t has no charms or mirth,
II often seems to me almost
God has forsaken earth.
But now in His great mercy.
He's changed those dreary days
To bright and glorious happy ones
oh marvellous are His ways.
The swallows now are mere again,
The snow birds ali are flown,
Oh, we should thank our Father
For the kindness He has shown.
The happy frogs are croaking
Their chorus TO the streams,
The sky now has a summer hue,
The sun sheds brighter beams.
The busy bees are humming
Among the buds and flowers.
That grow so sweet and beautiful
In springs refreshing showers.
The buttercups and daisies,
Are peeping through the grass,
And seem to nod welcome
To the breezes as they pass.
The pathway now is soft and green
Beneath our weary feet;
And in the woodlands and the fields.
We hear the lambs GLAD bleat.
And often when l hear them.
l join them In their mirth.
| am SO glad TO know again
Gods rot forsaken earth.
