"A L1OIdI UNION between treat BrtB-

that became living thing when

A Mystery of the Casualty LISTS.

(New York World)
An apparent paradox of the war
situation as t affects America has.
been the recent swellings of the days
by-day casualty lists, even while the
armistice, now entering it's fourth
week, was getting into full swing.
This is explained, of course, bv the
fact that the official lists are at least
month behind the events. We s+iu
are hearing from the last few vital
actions of the fighting period
Another mater of the Battlefield
reurns is less simple Of explanation.
With the lists printed yesterday,
Americas casualties us reported to
the public prints mounted to 1O3.-
467 il the army and 4,342 for the
marine corps. But on November IS.
General March, chief of staff. gave

casualty total of 236,117, including
53,169 deaths, while on Sunday last,
December 1, these totals were further
enlarged to 262,693 and 58,478 re-
spectiVely. This leaves nearly 160,-
GEO names yet to be reported.
Leaving aside insufficient theories
as to censorship and the inconcIusive-
ness Of hospital rolls, there is room
for one explanatory suggestion 1t

"WHAV HAS ENGLAND DONE?"

Strange, that III this great hour, when
Righteousnes s
Has won her war upon Hypocrisy,
That some there be who, lost in little
ness,
And mindful of an ancient grudge,
can ask:
Now, what has England done to win
this WARP"
We think we see her smile that Eng
lish smile,
1t We're SO little worth her while to
pause
In her stupendous task to make re-
ply.
What has she done, When with her
great gray ships,
1.-the, lean destroyers, grim invinci4
BILE,
She swept the proving Prussian
from tho seas;
And, Needless of the sinking subma-
rine,
The hidden mine, the Hun-made
trea cherries,
Her transports piled the waters cease
1essly!
You ask what she has done? Have
you forgot
That meath the burning suns of Pal
estine
She fought and bled. nor wearied of
the fight
Till from that land where walked the
Nazarene
She drove the foul and residential
TURK?
All, what has England done! No
need to ask.
Upon the fields Of Flanders and Of
France
A million crosses mark q million
graves;
Upon each cross a well-loved English
name,
And, all. her women! On that peace
full Isle,
Where In the hawthorne hedges
thrushes sang,
And meadow-larks made gay the
scented air,
Now bIackened cfimneys| rear their
grimy heads,
Smoke beIching, and the frightened
birds have fed
Before the thunder of the whirring
wheels.
Behind unlovely walls, amid the din,
Seven times a million noble women
With tender, unaccustomed fingers
toll,
Nor dream that they have played
hero's part.
'Great-hearted England, we have
fought the fight
Together and our mingled blood has
flowed.
Full we'll we know that underneath
thet mask
Of cool indifference there beats
heart
Grim as your own gaunt ships when
duty calls,
Yet warm and gentle as your Summer
skies;
A Nations heart that beats through
out a land
Where Kings may be beloved, and
Monarchy
Can teach Republics how they may
be free.
All, What has England done? When
came the call,
She counted not the cost, but gave
her all!
