"a singing army to France
The slogan indicates a new
determ nation on the part of the
Army Y. NJ. c. A. to meet the
increasing needs of the soldier
boys for music in the camps,
according to bulletin just re-
ceived here from the Central
Department headquarters of the
National War Work Council of
the Y. M. c. A. Following the
declaration of Maj Gen. Harry
c. Hale that "a singing army is
a winning army" the Army Y.
NJ. c. A. is now planning in it's
work for soldiers throughout the
United States to beat the Ger
mans at their own game.
Thirty eight of the foremost
song leaders in this country are
now at work in the cautonements
of the United States, organic
ing the enlisted men by com
panies and barracks and teach
ing them score of songs which
they may sing together at re-
views OF on the march. II is
stated that AZ such song leaders
are provided for and this mum
Der will soon be reached. One
song leader is being supplied in
each Of the army camps. In ad
dition, there are to be II timer.
ant song leaders who will in
struct the men ia singing at
isolated points. The purpose of
the Y. M. G. A. singing program
is to develop song leaders from
the ranks and make each mill
tary unit self entertaining as it
moves lover there"
Music alone completes with
religion in the power to lift up
mans heart and SOUL" says
Marshal M. Bartholomew, in
charge of singing instruction for
the Y. NJ. Z. a, in a statement
just issued. THE two most mil
itary nations of the world have
long recognized and sYstemati-
cally exploited this power Dur.
ing q long residence in Germany
both before and iduring the pres
ent war. I had opportunity to
study at first hand this important
phase of army life, and more
recently in Japan / made myself
familiar with military music
In my opinion. the singing in
the German army has done more
to keep up the morale of those
troops and to stimulate the pat
riotism of the people than any
other single influence"

RESOLUTIONS.
Whereas, Our Heavenly Father
has seen fit to take out of her
earthly home and transplant into
the garden of glory above, the life
OF sister Dolly Albright, wife of
Bro. A. E Albright and moth.
er of FIVE sweet girls, in her going
away we feel that Brodhead Bap.
fist church and Sunday school has
given up Ole of its most faithful
and efficient mem bers; and where.
as, the hearts of all our member
ship, and we might add the hearts
of all Brdohead people, go out
In the most profound sympathy
to the bereaved husband and
children.
And whereas, sister Albright's
life in her home among her chill.
dren and before the people of the
town has been such as to merit
the highest commentator of all
with whom she came in contact;
therefore be it resolved that we,
the members of Brodhead Baptist
church and Sunday school, do
extend to the stricken family our
deepest sympathy, assuring them
that our hearts are beating in uni.
son with theirs, in this dark hour
and that our tears are freely min
gled with theirs.
Be it further resolved, That we
com mend this dear father and
children to the pity and loving
compassion of our dear Heavenly
Father, believing that whatsoever
He does is for the best, because
Behind our life the Weaver stands
AMI works his woudrous will;
Weleave it all to His wise hand
And trust His perfect skill;
Should mystery enshroud His plan
And our short sight be dim,
We will not try the whole to scan
But leave it all to Him.
Be it further resolved that a
copy of these resolutions be sent
to the Mt. Vernon Signal for pub.
lication and copy be spread on

Monarchy. Austria, well aware Of
this compact, has taken advantage Of
the war, the Hunearians soy, to re
vive the old Magyar-German strife
and to end the Hungarian pretenslons.
"vienna must well be aware OF the
fact that the Hungarian race 10 fast
disappearing" declared Deputy FEN
NYEs. Another Deputy, speaking for
the Transylvanian district, said In re-
glons inhabited by the Seekers, u kin
dred race to the Magyars, mo males

Deputy ABRAHAM declared that In
the whole of Hungary "males are to
be found only in the towns, for the
villages are depopulated."
As despicable as this treachery TO
Hungary on the part Of Austria ap-
pears, there is every reason to believe,
as Hungarlans themselves believe.
that the master hand in the betrayal
Is at Berlin. With Hungary ex-
hausted and reduced to helplessness,
an obstacle to Prusslan eastward ex-
pansion is permanently removed.

Magma ChaPts.

Mr.. DAVIS, In his interesting article
on Magma Charta, printed elsewhere
In THE SUN to-day, contradicts as
sertiOns which we did not make, as
where he says: Nor 1t true that
the provisions Of Magma Charta did
not reach the villein."
We said: ut afforded little protec-
ton to the villelns, who constituted a
majority Of the population"
This is the view Of the latest Eng.
llsh critics. ARTHUR WILLIAM HoL-
LAND, an accomplished scholar, who
wrote the article on Magma Chnrta
In the Encyclopedia Britannica,
quotes the statement of J. II. GREEN
that the rights which the Barons
claimed for themselves they claimed
for the nation at large, and goes on
to say, the italics being ours:
las a matter of fact. the statement
is only true with large limitations. The
ptIleins, uho formed the majority. Of
the population, got very little from It.:
In fact, the only clauses which protect
them do so because they are property
property OF their lords-and therefore
valuable. They get neither political
nor civil rights under Magma Charta
II did not establish freedom
from arbitrary arrest, or the right OF
the representatives of the people to con-
troll taxation. or trial by jury or otheI
conceptions OF later generation"
The only trouble about Mr.. DAvIs's
article is that 1t conveys the Idea
that THE SUN was wrong, wherea.
there is excellent authority for every
statement we made. Nothing that w
said could fairly be regarded rs de
preciating Magma Chartq.

1fAyOr Mitchell and the Police.

The prominence of the New York
police in the impressive funeral pro-
cession on Thursday from the City
Hall to st. Patrick's Cathedral was n
most appropriate tribute to the mem
DRY of the late Mayor. In no depart.
ment Of the city government had he
made his influence for good more
deeply felt. The members of the force
realize this, and there was real mourn
ing in the hearts of those who par
ticipated in the funeral ceremonies. .
OF course Mayor mitchell could
come into personal relations with
comparatively few police officers; but
they all knew what he stood for apd
hundreds OF them were personally
acquainted with his Police Commits
E!oner. Their confidence in ARTHI r.
WOODS and their admiration for him
extended to the Mayor by whom he
was appointed. Every patroIman
knew that he was sure of fair treat
ment from Commissioner WOODS.
AS the funeral passed up Murray
Hill lady mt one of the street cor
ners had occasion to thank a traffic
policeman for some information In re-
gard to the place where her autOmo-
bile might stand. Perhaps you knew
Mayor MITCHELL" she remarked in
terrogatively, as he was leaving her.
"Indeed ! did, lady" he responded,
as his fnce frightened up ut the in
quiry, "and New York never had n
Mayor who treated the police as well
ms he did. Any one of us, from the
smallest to the greatest, might go to
Commissioner WOODS and he sure of
a hearing. He never turned n police
man down without finding out what
the matter was; and II there was any.
thing wrong the man always had q
fair show from ARTHUR WoODs."
This is slight Incident but ex.
