GREAT MEN USUALLY SILENT
Acknowledged Leaders of the Race
Have Been Content to Let Their
Deeds Speak for Them.

Genius has always been accompanied
by briefness Of speech, as may be seen
by the following list, remarks Lon
don Tit-Bits:
Napoleon rarely spoke when he could
avoid it, while Wellington was similar
~ silent. Lord Kitchener was posi-
lively sphnxlike in his reserve, Lord
Palmerston was proverbially silent,
while William Pitt throughout his me-
teoric career was given TO long periods
Of silence.
Sir Isaac Newton, world famous as a
scientist, rarely spoke save to answer
question. Darwin wrote much, but
spoke little while Lord Kelvin was
among the most mute of great men.
Authors are rarely great takers.
Tolstoi, the most amiable OF men, was
reserved in conversation, and at times
absolutely mute. Balzac, the greet
French romanticist, when engaged In
thinking out new work often passed
several days talking to no one but him
self.
Beethoven was reticent, Mozart spar
ing In his speech, while 1t Is said OF
Chopin that he loved silence better
even than music, and Wagner, save
when discussing musical matters, was
silent even to the point Of rudenes..
Among the most silent of the worlds
great men We're the late Lord Tenny-
son and Thomas Carlyle.

the German idea and German purpose
in the world The President of the
United States, in a document which
will endure. has spoken the decision of
his country and that decision is a moral
endorsement Of the principles proclaim-
ed by the French and British statesmen
in their own declarations.
Looking backward upon my own ex-
perience in two visits to Europe during
the war, | do not believe it is possible
to exaggerate the effect of the moral
side of this American decision. 1t ter
inmates the pacifist agitations in France
and Great Britain 1t closes the page
on which were written the various at
temps to attain peace by negotiation
with the moral backing of the President
of the United States. 1t gives new
force and vitality to the contention of
those who are directing the policy of
the enemies Of Germany, that there can
be no peace with Germany without vic
tory. From the American Review of
Reviews for May, 1917

CUSTOMS OF THE COMMONS
Bill. in Both British Houses Of Par
Lament That Tend TO Keep the
Memory Green.

There is no other building In the
United Kingdom where the daily Gus
toms observed are so full OF interest
ms In the house Of commons, says
writer in London Tit-Bits. Many peo-
pie who sit in the gallery fail to see
in the various forms links which bind
ms to events of centuries ago. But II
the visitor Is willing to find out the
significance of what he sees, he viii
enter into q world OF ineXhaustible ro-
nance
II, for instance, he is present on the
first day of n session he will notice
that, before the clerk at the table
reads out the business printed on the
order paper, he calls out "outlawry
bill," which is thereupon considered to
have been read first time, and the
house passes on 10 Its appropriate
business.
1t Is the symbol which marks the
victory Of parliament long years ago
In its claim to consider whatever bua-
ness ii likes without interference by
the crown. SO, In the first day Of ev-
cry session, before parliament pro-
ceeds TO consider the business for
which it has been called together, IL
turns aside TO give a first reading to
the outlawry bill.
The same curious rite takes place
In the house of lords Mt the beginning
of each session, but in this case the
bill which is read first time Is called
select vestries," and it is considered
Immediately after the kings speech
has been read. No one knows wha.
the outlawry bill or the select vestries
bill IS, but they stand for the suprem-
acy of parliament.

full league of nations whose object is to
enforce peace, 1t is reasonable to hope
that the emu of the present world war

taken 10y Congress on April 6, following
the advice given to the two assembled
houses by President Wilson four days
earlier Whether or not the existing
war is to be shortened by our assump-
ton of the status of belligerency, 1t rs
fairly certain that our future peace, as
well as that Of all other leading nations,
for hundred years to come is much
less likely 70 be disturbed. We have
gone into this war to make the rule Of
reason respected and to make the peace
dream Of long ages a working reality Of
the carly future. This is the third great
undertaking of our national history.
1t will tax all our best practical en-
ergies.

war becomes in fact war Of liberation,
