BEARING UP BRAVELY

Ii would be difficult if not i'm possible to draw an acceptable par alIel between the condition of popu- lar sentiment in the United States arising from the Lusitania affair, and the effect produced upon popu- lar thought in Canada by recent i.ews from the front. The European ,.ar has lately been brought home on both countries, 1t Is true, in . startling and impressive manner but with results almost wholly dissimilar.
 At no time since the beginning of last August has Canada failed to recognize the weight of its responsi- tilities or to realize the conse- Quences of it's position; yet for months, to the mass of the Canadia people, war had appeared something be regarded academiCally-as something very far distant. There were for months no greater signs of var visible n Windsor than |, in De r-oit, in Toronto than in Cleveland, in Montreal than in Montpelier, in Vancouver than iu Seattle; but be- meath the surface were continuous ly ia action forces that represented the measure of the loyalty and de- yotiou of this important unit of the British empire. Out of the beat yu Yaths and tar from the public view the youth of the Dominion were being assenn nled iR training camps. From Canadian ports q few short months ago. the first contingent of the Canadian legion Nas Lorne across the Atlantic. It seemed only a step in distance or time from Salisbury plain to the trencb-scarred Ypres district, and only flashing moment from the announcement that the Canadian volunteers were on the first line to the receipt of news that in a stand whicL saved the day for Britain and her allies, 6ONU of the brave fel- lows had fallen.
 Adyices from the Dominion say that Cor a week after the coming oI this news the people were un- lble 70 grasp their capabilities or 10 viow their future in a proper light. A period of pessimism set il. add although conscious that a large portion of the world was ring tug with applause, the recovery vas slow. But the recovery came, and it is complete. There is no attempt in Canada to disguise the gravity of the situation, no at tempt to eyade the sacrifices it de- mauds, Out now that the cost may be clearly estimated, there is great CT determination than ever to go on with ihe task in hand, and to cling tO it steadfaStly against all odds aud all disCouragements until it is finished
 Canada knows what it has to meet. It is troubled with no doubts. And because it is dealing with con- ditious and not with theories, with certainities and not with prObabili- ties, it's head is erect once more, its htncs are high, and it Is more confident than ever of the right eousuess of the cause to which it is giving so much of the best it has to give.

MACK IS GREAT
 HANDLER OF MEN
HE WAS TAUGHT LESSON.

Great Left Handed TwirIer Tells of
 Singing Rebuke He Received From
 His old Boss, Which He Will AIways
 Remember.
 "Yes, Connie Mack Is q wonderful manager" assented Eddie Plank, the former star left handed twirler of the Philadelphia Athletics and now men, Der of the St. Louis Federal league club, who was let out by the Phuade!- phia manager last fall, in talking to members of his team recently.
 Pulls In Harmony.
 He is a quiet, observing man, just as one would judge from look at his pictures. He pulls in harmony with all bis players, and 1t Is rarely indeed that he gives one calling
 Right well I remember the first and only rebuke Connie ever directed toward my head. We were playing In Chicago In 1906, and the gentleman who was umpiring the game Uhere is no need of mentioning his name hcrc) was calling balls on me when the leather was cutting the plate in half raised the dickens with him, and he kept calling them bad until the seventh inning, and then I flew of my guard took ofr my glove and threw it in the air and was immediately chased of the field
 A Call From Mack.
 "As I walked over to put on my sweater Connie said in a slow, deliber- ate way. with a piercing note of sar- casm in his voice, Nice work, Eddie; you showed excellent judgment
 That was all, just seven words; but, believe me, boys, I'll remember those seven words as long as l live. They hurt me worse than if he had Tit In and cussed me until he was blue in the face. don't retain their memory with any hard feeling toward Mack attach ed-far from 1t simply remember them as forming the most cutting re- buke l have ever received. It taught me a lesson l never forgot. l never lost my head to such an extent as to get myself chased for 1t.
 Mark of Weakness.
 And so, fellows, my little word ol advice to you is that you try to keep the temperature in the nejShbOrhood of your cranium in tine vicinity of 70 de grees F. or lower If possible. This es- pecially applies to the pitchers and catchers who often are wont to kick up the dust and create row over pitched balls. When a man forces the ump to send him to the clubhouse he is hurt ing his teammates. not himself. and therefore it is his teammates he must consider rather than himself.
 ",ro kick and pout at bad decision Is only mark of weakness on the part of the player. and the possible results do not justify it, The umpire cannot change his decision, and to fight him means to Jeopardize your chances of fair play. My policy has been Never kick on a decision and l have found 1t a very good rule to follow"
