NEEDS NEW BURIAL
PLACE FOR HEROES

Westminster Abbey. the resting
place of England's renowned, is now
crowded with heroes. rulers, poets
has rested during their lifetime. 1t is
so filled with memorials. in fact. that
an addition has become positively nee
essary. and the London newspapers are
devoting considerable space to sug-
gestions for new chapcls.
It is felt that the great war will pro-
duce a number of personages deserving
of the lasting glory of a place in West
minister Abbey. But few of these can
be so accommodated unless the historic
abbey is enlarged. Nearly q score of
years ago the great abbey began to
show signs of congestion. The dis
posal of John Ruskin's body brought
up the issue. Manifestly he should be
buried in the abbey, but there was no
room in the poets corner, which was
deemed the most fitting spot for his
monument Ruskin, in the end was
buried where he died, near to his be-
loved Lake coniston.
S,IlCt lIlil lllIS IiOIt lltstt1 Il doScil
great Englishmen have found their last
earthly home in the abbey. There have
been Others not SO fortunate, who have
been buried in more commonplace sur
roundings. yet who merited a place in
the abbey.
1t is now proposed to erect a me-
mortal chapel for the illustrious ones
Of the nation and n Nalhalla for the
more conspicuous heroes who have died
| in war. These new buildings woulc
| adjoin the main section of the abbey
| and would be connected with it by !;
vestibule. The suggestion receiving
| the most favor is to erect buildings
INTELLECTUALLY in keeping with tn,
rest of the abbey, that would be ampl.
| for the purpose for the next severL
| hundred years.
| AS a beginning 1t is proposed to plac,
in the Valhalla memorials to Lor.
Kitchener, Nurse Edith Cavell an,
Captain F'ryatt.
Most of the prominent Englishmel
offering suggestions for the enlarge
| ment of the abbey assert there mus
be more structures placed upon confer

trving's comment upon the abbey:
What, thought I, is this vast as

homilies on the emptiness of renow
