A GREAT MAN.

That man is great, and he alone.
Who serves a greatness not his own
For neither praise nor pelf;
Content to know, and be unknown;
Whole in himself.

Who, from his tyrant passions free'

WAR IS CHANGING ENGLAND
NEW PLACES OPEN TO WOMEN

London.-rThe British army that
comes out of the war will be of a
very different type from the one that
went into ii at the beginning. The
personnel of its officers will have
beer argely changed, partly by pro-
motion from the ranks and partly
| by giving of comm. ssions to educated
volunteers of very different tradi.
tons from those of the military caste.
Bchi"d this characterization of the
British army lies The larger question
Of compulsory service, which the war
is making Il front-rank issue.
Then, there is the new and rapid
trend to socialism, shown in the I'M
animous recourse of all parties to So

one at present dare hazard a guess on
these points, hut their Importance is

AS regards the social matters-thc
everyday routine of the family and
the neighboriiood---th outstanding
change so far is in the occupations
OF the women folk of the country.
