The Land of Memories.
By Father Abram J. Ryan.

A land without ruins is a land with
out memories-a land without mem
ories is land without liberty. "A land
that wears laurel crown may be fair
to see, but twine a few sad cypress
leaves around the brow Of any land,
and be it ever so beau,''less and bleak.
it becomes Lovely in it's consecrated
coronet of sorrow, and it wins the
sympathy of heart and Ilistory. Crowns
of roses fade-crowns Of thorns en-
dure. Calvaries and crucifxes take
deepest hold of humanity-the trfum-
phs of Might are transient, they pass
away and are orgotten-the suffer-
ings of Right are craven deepest on
the Chronicles of nations.
Yes, give me land where the ruins
are spread,
Where the living tread light DER the
hearts OF the dead;
Yes, give me land that is blessed by
the dust,
And bright with the deeds of tie down.
trodden just;
Yes, give me a land that hath legends
and lays,
Enshrining the memories of 1ong-van-
ished days;
Yes, give me land that hath story and
song,
To tell OF the strife of the Right and
the Wrong;
Yes, give me tie land with a grave in
each spot,
And names in the graves that shall not
be forgot!
Yes. give me the land Of the wreck
and the tomb,
There's a grandeur in graves, there's
glory in gloom!
For out of the gloom future brightness
is born,
AS after the night looms the sunrise
of morn;
And the graves of the dead, with the
grass overgrown,
May yet from the footstool Of Liberty's
throne.
L
And each single wreck in TIE Warpath
of Might,
Shall yet be a rock in the Temple
of Right

AUSTRIAN SUBMARINE
SINKS FRENCH CRUISER
Crew Sleeping When Sudden Explosion
Brings Disaster-No Sign Of
Her AssaihHt.

Brindisi, Italy, Tuesday, April u.
(via Paris, April %, Delayed).-The
French cruiser Leon Gambetta has
been torpedoed by the austrian subma-
rine Us in the Strait of Otranto, the
waterway leading to the Adriatic sea.
The first report of toe destruction
of this cruiser came from the sema-
phore station of Santa Maria Lucia.
Relief vessels were sent out from
Taranto, Otranto and Bari.
It has not yet been ascertained wheth-
er the attack occurred within the terri
torial waters of Italy.
The Austrian submarine U-5 is the
same craft tat few days ago board
ed the Italian steamer Jolanda.
The Leon Gambetta parted company
with the French cruiser Jules Ferry
last night to cross the strait of Otran-
to to cooperate with othed French
ships in an attempt to block the Aus
trian fleet if it s3ould seek to leave the
Adriatic. Although the Leon Gambetta
showed no lights and adopted the other
customary precautions, there was no
suspicion of danger.
At midnight the warship was about
20 miles from Cape Santa Maria Lu-
cia. At sea nothing appeared on the
horizon. Officers and men remained
calm, and, the survivors say, their first
though was to detect and attack their
assailant They scanned the sea for
a periscope, but in vain.
The cruiser was listing rapidly, the
commander ordered signals for nelp
and lowering of boats. Some OF tne
men leaped overheard in the bare hope
of saving themselves. Others were
washed off the decks. The commander
refused to abandon his ship.
None of the survivors was able TO
say how long it was before nelp ar
rived. It was probable several hours
elapsed.
The French armored cruiser Leon
Gambetto displaced 12,416 tons and
carried 700 to 800 officers and men.
She was built at Brest in 1903, was
1876 feet long, 70 IA feet beam, had a
mean draft of 26 1-2 feet and carried

see there is to be baby show in
Newberry. That is great, but, gee,
wouldn't hate to be one Of tie judges
unless there was some way by which
all Of the babies could be winners, and
then it would be just about as bad,
because 'every mothers son Of them
would think that her baby was tae
only baby WORT While, and it is right
and natural that she should. But they
say this IS to be real and genuine
baby show, and fuss and feathers will
cut no ice, or words to that effect
Every baby is to stand and be judged
on flesh and blood alone. Laces and
furbelows will not be considered.
Physical defects will be counted
against the baby, and 1 don't reckon
the good disposition and even temper
of tee child will have much to do with
it. But, you know, this is CONNER
cial age, and we don't care much about
anything except that which has to DO
with the physical and the commercial.
But they say it is to be absolutely fair
and impartial, and nothing counts ex-
cept that the child is a perfect speci-
men of physical development. There
are lots of fine babies in NewDerry
county and If they all come out it will
be a great event. l guess the main
purpose is to show the value and the
importance oe physical inspection Of
school children. They tell me that
by proper ca,e and attention in in
fancy many & desormed and crippled
grown person might be prevented. But
to my idea ali this government inspec-
ton and direction and control is all
wrong. but 1 reckon an an old rogy
and b,i.ind the age in which I live. or
maybe 1 have outlivtG ny day and
generation. And yet guess it is right
that We should remember hat tie
child has some right which. if the pa
rent is too indiffere II to respect It
should be the duty Of some ere to look
after it for the benefit Of tee citizen
ship of the Commonwealth and for the
good of the child. And suppose that
is what it all means, but my old no
ton is that the nome is tie castle and
should not be invaded by all these in
spectors and what nots. Anyhow this
baby show is going to be great event.
so come along and get your baby ready
and sanitary and clean, and bring It
along and get tie prize, and If you
do not, learn the reason WHY. And
this baby show is to be held some time
next week.

burial places and keeps them beautiful
is tee live city" That may seem
.paradox-I believe that is good WORD,
anyway if it is not look it up and tell
ma the word 1 want-but any way it
is worth while thinking about, and
the more you think about it the trueT
it appears. And that reminds me OF
that poem, 1 believe written by Father
RYAN. about city without ruins and
so on. You know I can't quote poetry
unless l lave it before me, but 1 re-
member something about a poem OF
that kind. If these two sayings are
true, I am afraid we are not a live
city. but We may have the spirit OF
patriotism and of greatness because
there are ruins all about us. But just
look at Rosemont and It's condition.
Oh, that Rosemont Go and see it and
determine for yourself. and determine
if it is beautiful. You know there are
different ideas of beauty just like there
are different tastes and there is no

than at this memorial occasion. I am
not guessing about the condition OF

one of the old vets to tell him story
about the war. The old fellow said:
t'The main thing can tell you is that
it was an awful place to be in, and
them that was not there can tell you
more about battle than most that was
in it." Now ttat old fellow spoke
great truth. And most Of them that
