POETRY
THE NEW VICTORY.

Victory comes: Not hard and laughing as she cams, of
 yore,
 Her slaves. to beating drums. The black cloud lifts, And, lifting our long-weary eyes, to
 see, There dawns upon our sight. Majestic crowned with light. Stern and so ,quiet-she must keep her
 strength To build at weary length Over again; our scared and shattered This. then. ah, this is she. Our graver Victory. She follows down the furrows War-turned across the world, Where still the spent shell burrows, Where the black shot was hurled,s And sows the wheat and corn, The world. from anguish born Again from its old grief. Looks up. athirst And hungering, Daring to dream again | Of flowers unhurt. and unstained rain | And love and Spring; Knowing that she shall build each place accursed | Into thing that may some day again Be ouIr. once land of comfort and le-
 4Snl, 1 Of ease and mockery Even forgetfulness; | Even the gift to bless. Victory paces slowly through the ] lands: | No lash is in her hands. She builds herself no triumph-arch for | cover, No common marble toy
 She is too great for joy.
 She who uphuilds
 Each little shattered home And brings men back to it; and lover
 gives to lover.
 And 10 the shattered soul it's faith And to the world continuance Of God How should our praise for her Tn high crowned buildings stand-oh
 new be pent
 Tn built or wooden thing? The stable world itself Is her great
 monument, il Margaret Widdemer.
