Old Newfoundland.

Newfoundland this year celebrates
the four hundred and twentieth ami
versary of her discovery. In 1907 John
Cabot sailed from Bristol on a voyage
which was made famous by the finding
of Newfoundland. 1t was not until
1852 that it was formally taken pos
session Of in the name of Queen Eliza
beth. Many of the fishing boats from
that ancient, colony took part in the
defeat of the Spanish armada. In the
present war Newfoundland has given
10000 men to the service of Britain.

A CoIIeue Education.

A story not new, but worth repeat
ing is once again going the rounds in
England. Two bootmakers, whose es-
establishments faced each other in the
village high street, were very distinct
ly rivals. One Of them had a son at
college and, in the first week of his va
cation, there appeared in the shop win
dow the motto: "Mens Conscia RectO."
His rival over the way was for some
time a little nonplussed, but within a
few days he arose to the occasion and
there appeared in his window card
bearing the legend, mems and Wom-
EMS Conscia Recti."--Chrlstian Mon;

Cultivate Your Aspirations.

Very few people are satisfied with
the work they are doing. Many of
them have aspirations for something
better, more congenial. If you have
any natural leaning toward a higher
grade of work, says Physical Culture
Magazine, don't strive to put it out of
your mind, but try to keep it very
much in your mind. 1t may indicate
a field for which you are especially
gifted If you have any ambitions, cul-
tivate them. It is only those who dare
to follow the guiding star Of destiny by
encouraging and cultivating these aspi-
rations who ultimately move forward
to their realization.

and to say that the whale is winning
on his unaccustomed element, and so is
the elephant.
1t is the first business of the United
States to deal with the most pressing
danger, and to make certain that the
elephant does not triumph. And this
for no reasons of sentiment, or Anglo
sea reminiscence, but because the de-
feat of Great Britain would involve
the utter ruin of the whole entente and
most certainly of the United States as
well. 1t is possible to conceive any
other member of the anti-German coali
ton temporarily beaten to the ground
without Germany succeeding in con-
quering the world but if it is now
given to the United States to decide
the war by throwing all her resources
into the scale, it no less remains true
that the British navy is the guardian
of the liberties of us all. America
would be just as helpless if the British
navy were starved into submission as
if it were sent to the bottom of the sea.
The strategy of the allied armies
during the past year has been to wear
down the German troops by ceaseless
and relentless Offensives pushed as
violently as possible. Were it possible
to break through the German lines and
destroy the enemys armies, as some
Optimists, have believed possible, the
war could be won promptly, and the
attrition warfare of the submarine de-
feated. But it is not possible; and pro-
fessional optinTsts do their cause
very poor service when they circulate
rosy accounts which must tend to en-

the Germans cannot hold out beyond
