and they and people in general will
soon forget the waste and black muir
der aspect Of this foul thing, whereas
the newspapers and the literary
glorification which always accom-
panies a war will have sounded a
note which will 60 on ringing for
generations.
"As for this war, suppose no.
body out of Bedlam dreams that
there can be any gains to anybody
from it. On the contrary, it must re-
suit in all for great losses and years
of suffering. At best an even greater
possible peril to humanity may have
been removed.
II forgot to say that shooting
Germans at a reasonable distance
feels exactly like shooting pheasants.
Also like Tommy Atkins and Fritz

other. They would cross each others
lines and fraternize tomorrow if it
were possible. It happened
last Christmas and during Jan

game of hate going"

LETTER FROM AN
ENGLISH OFFIQoR

This letter, from which we have
taken that which follows, was ad
dressed to a friend by company
officer somewhere in France" It
was printed in somewhat greater
length in The Venturer Of London.
what l have felt chiefly about
the war is its vileness and its out-of:-
dateness. 1t seemed to me so ludi-
crously out Of place in these civilized
days that at the worst moments the
incongruity has almost made me
laugh.
"More and more l have felt it to
be a child's game played by those
who had pretended to be grown up.
"War is simply wholesale under
hand murder-(it is essentially, and
on principle, NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
ing until the misery caused on one
side is so much in excess Of the mis-
ery caused on the other, that an al
iteration in certain national bound
aries is agreed to and there ensues
the misery of a peace following ex-
treme exhaustion.
"War, l think MORALLY futile, be-
cause / do not believe at all in the
romantic view Of it, j. e., in the good
qualities which it is supposed to
breed.
at is true that it tests men, like
plague, shipwreck, famine, or any
other adversely, but in doing so it
does not make the good qualities
that come to light; it merely makes
them apparent.
"No man in his sense would ad-
yocate the occasional sinking Of a
liner, or the incubation Of a disease,
in order to promote heroism and
self-sacrifice, yet justification Of
war on such ground is equally indie
feasible.
81 must get back to 'futility,' and
polish it off.
"With regard to the wicked and
ugly waste caused by the war, | sup
pose nobody can quite realize it who
has not seen, as have, hundreds and
hundreds of corpse-our best stuff
most of them, our bravest and
healthiest youth-lying unburied
where, they fell, putrid and blacken-
ing. It's filthy sight. l have hated
seeing it, and it has made me more
than ever furious at the folly Of war
swell, where is the gain FOR which
all that ugly slaughter, with the mis-
cry it has made, is the price? There
should be big gain to justify it. As
far as this war is concerned, think
myself that in the circumstances that
had arisen it was unavoidable.
"But those circumstances should
never have arisen. I hope and pray
that the world may wake up from its
madness, as from bad dream, and
that this may be the last war, but !
haven't my faith in any such happy
prospect.
Those who have fought and sur
vived will come home slightly brutal
ICED, but otherwise just as they were,
