In each Of these a soldier was strum'

books and magazines; hundreds were
writing letters home. Behind the
raised counter at one end three or four
Young men were busy passing out
notepaper and envelopes, selling
stamps and Weighing parcels, which
the men were sending home. One OF
the soldiers said to me as stood In
the tent used chiefly by men from
Iowa: I'VE came all the way here
from Des Moines, and we we're mighty

These were the tents Of the Y. NJ. G

in the best Of all Ways-giving them

Victorious But Conquered.

Victories are often purchased at great cost Sometimes the victory be- comes . defeat. What ticlSles the na- tional fancy may drive men to ex- tremes but the extremes may bring consequences little dreamed of. In the midst of the celebrations of yic- tory the collapse of power may begin. No nation is so dangerously near ca lamity as it is in the moment of it's triumphs. Then it is that the bars of restraint are lowered and follies caper in the guise of festive heralds of greatness. One can't rise and by ris- ing tamper with principles. No man can ever get above his honor and re- main worthy of himself. The fact that you rise is evidence that you will need all your powers to keep you in high station.

England, Ireland and the Pope.

Tn the twelfth century Pope Adrian ". the only Englishman that ever oe- cupied the papal chair, granted the hereditary lordship of Ireland to Henry II of England. h 1172 Henry II visited Ireland in person, and the clergy and great princes acknowledged his supremacy and he was recognized Lord of Ireland" In 1177 John, the youngest son of Henry Il, was granted this lordship, but his authority was only nominal, and he left the govern ment to John dCource. n member of a celebrated Norman family of Ox- fordshire and Somersetshire, and whose percentage was entirely un- known. In 1210 John visited Ireland, but in ,1213 resigned the kingdom to the Pope, and for q second time the papal claim to Ireland was formally recorded.
