About ten years from now going

Instead of dry books and dry talks

AS SOLDIERS SHOULD.

Three Americans on the Titanic
had military titles. One. Major Butt,
was in active service. Two. Colonel
Aston and Colonel Oracle, were not
in the army. But all had been
soldiers.
In the hour of trial all of them
played their parts as soldiers should.
Two, Major Butt and Colonel Astor,
died together, after doing all that
men could do to help get the boats,
loaded chiefly with women and chill
dren, safely away from the wrecked
Titanic. Colonel Oracle lived, but
in nowise dishonored or brought into
question as a man and an office. He
did not leave the ship in a boat. He
did not try to get place for himself
which might be needed for some poor
woman. He waited until just as the
great vessel was going down and
jumped into the sea. That he was
picked up and saved was good for
tune, not any flinching on his part
The American soldiers kept the
faith of the army. They lived up tc
| its best traditions and ideals in the
supreme test. Two of them died as
heroes and the third was In no sense
escape from death.

1t is true that the burden of build

COWARDICE.

The world can forgive many forms
of cowardice.
The heart and mind overwhelmed
is a situation that nearly everybody
understands.
But the world is slow to forget and
unwilling to forgive deliberate
cowardica.
In war the young recruit who fees
horror-stricken at the first sound of
musket or at the first sight of block
is forgiven, comforted, and strength
ened. The moral coward who betrays
his country remains forever
anathema and forgiven.
1t is where treachery unites with
the yellow streak of cowardice that
men sink lowest. Benedict Arnold is
a synonym for the American ideal of
everything that is vile.
Instinctively in reading the story
of the Titanic's awful disaster, men
pity with over-howing hearts those
poor fellows who fought with other
men for a place on the raft that
would hold no more than those al
ready on it. People understand the
unnerved condition of the cowardiy
man who sat groaning and sobbine
in the end of a life boat while two
women rowed it; but the name of j
Bruce Ismay has been branded with
an infamy from which he can nevel
escape.
The name of the insolent coward
who betrayed his passengers shall
be united in history with the name
| of Judas who betrayed his Master
and Benedict Arnold who betrayed
his country.
The world understands and for
gives the emotional coward; but tn,
deliberate coward, the insolent COW
ard, the responsible man who woul;
not face his responsibility. the speed
maniac who compelled women AM
children to pay the price and savet
himself, deserves the ignominy tina
has already fastened itself to hi
name.
