loved one, therefore we leave him or her at
rest. Of what use are weeping and complain
ing? Of course, from time to time the old sor-
row attacks US. But then, one must be reason
able, and say to himself, Give your love and
loyalty to the living; the dead no longer need
them"

her dark, appealing eyes, and says softly;

"Can there be any more spring days for
me-" asked the young wife disconsolately.
There will be some Every year has its
spring. We only feel it more one year than
we do another. Aren't you able to see spring
time down there, playing under the trees?'

other children. Then he went on quietly, as if
he were telling a story to a child:

A Tale of Wartime Philosophy

US in the course Of years-our art, our indus
try our science, our whole cultural achieve
ment-and made many sharp excisions. All
that was alien, all that didn't belong to US, all
the counterfeit, all that was worthless and un-
available, the vain and useless things with
which we had falsifed our life-all that ne
put aside; all that must perish. The great,
the trying the heart-breakng, which this war
has brought upon US, that will make US forget
our narrow, petty life-our poor, barren egos
and the Fatherland will rise in grandeur and
purity, in firm, clear possession of all its pow
ers-great as it has never before been great.
And we shall all be better. How great has
Germany already become and now sure of her
self she will be after this war.
For that your son had to die. For that he
had to lay down his life, his strength. Do you
believe, sorrowing mother, that he would re-
greet it? Would he not go back TO the front,
happy because Of the Iron Cross on his breast,
if he could rise again? Why should you be
grudge him his glorious death? l know that
a German mother is worthy Of her dead son,
worthy Of his and her Fatherland!"
Both of them were silent, for they had ap-
preached the burial ground in the wood. The
tall marble cross glistened snow-white through
the twilight, and the creeping rose bush showed
its scores of tiny dark red roses. Many Of
them had already fallen-many, maryland
the wind had scattered their petals. Like little
blood-red hearts they lay upon the pathway
and over the white marble.
IF flowers did not decay they would cumber

as heart beats for u.s."
The silent lady bowed deep over the grave.
win you not say it for my consolation, o ray
dead love, that the roses will always bloom
again? Are you also so proud Of our boy, my
dear husband"
The evening grew darker and the stars grew
brighter, ike consolation after grief, like hope
after gloom. The two visitors at the grave
turn slowly away. The old gentleman walks
proud and erect, as vigorous as an old oak
tree. His shrewd eyes face the wide world 50
freshly and so hopefully. And he, too. has h.d
his days of storm and suffering.
The little girl comes running up the path
toward her mother, and clings TO the mo1her'l
arm. She caresses her child and speaks some
tender words. Then she turns. all OF SUI
den, to her loyal old companion.
IF could only bring him home, my sp!er'-
