WAR MYTHS

It is in periods of great stress and
 trial and especially in time of war,
 that the legends of myths and mir
 acles usually have their origin, to be
 handed down through credulous gen.
 erations. War-even the scientific
 carnage of the present-appeals to
 the most primitive emotions of man.
 kind The, reign of reason is tenn
 porarily overthrown, and men return
 ''to sit in superstition's lap and hear
 again the oft-told tales of the myth
 ical and the marvellous" Scores of legends of supernatural intervention have sprung up during this war, and have found a multitude of ready be- hevers. The Russians are the most prolific of myth manufacturers, and according to the tales that are told around the camp-fires and in peasant households, saints without number have returned to give their counsel and guidance to the soldiers of the Czar. The Germans, especially those of the South, have displayed a simi- lar fertility of pious imagination. The free-thinking Frenchman of the city scoffs at such notions, but the peasant soldiers of "la republique" fervently
 believe that Joan of Arc has often re- appeared in the flesh and led the French to victory. Perhaps the most
 remarkable of these myths, that deal ing with the miraculous appearance at Mons of St. George and the bow men of Agincourt, who saved the Bri- tish from annihilation, has found ready 'credence in England Although it has now been demonstrated that this legend originated in a clever bit of fiction written by Arthur Machan and originally published in the Lon
 don Evening News, and was a literary
 invention pure and simple, the truth has been quite unable to catch up with the falsehood. It is to the cred it of Thomas Atkins that he gives no support to such bloody nonsense. !"
 An 'ard-'eaded chap is Tommy, and he knows just what chance an Agin- court bowman would stand in a battle like those now being fought.

New York, Aug. 7-To substantiate his claim that ''the drift of Progress ives to the support of President Will son has become a stampede since their meeting in Indianapolis last Thursday Democratic National Chairman Vance C..

Parker of Louisiana, Pro- gressive nominee for Vice President, and Bainbridge Colby, who nominated Roosevelt in the Progressive conven- ton this year and that of four years ago.
