 If courage thriyes on reeking slaugh And he who kills Is lord Of beauty and of loving laughter Gird on me 2 sword. If death be dearest comrade proven, If life be towards mate If Nazareth of dreams be woven- Give me fighters fate! If God is thrilled by a battle cry. If He can bless the moaning fight If when the trampling charge goes God Himself is the leading Knight; If God laughs when the the guinl g,il.t thgnders. g,ns Then my stoic soul but wonders
 How great God can do such things. The whihe gulls wheeling over the The sun. the reckoning trees We being enemies. and thou,
 There is no meaning to these. There is no flight on the wings of No scent in the summer rose; The roundelays that the tblackbirds There is no meaning in those! If you must kill me-wny the lark.
 The hawthorn bud. and the corn: Why do the stars bedew the dark?
 Why is the blossom born? If I must kill you-why the kiss
 Which made you? There is no why! If if be true we were born for this
 Pitiful Love, Good-byei Not for the God of Battles,-
 For Honor. Freedom, and Right And saving of gentle Beauty We have gone down to fight! John Galsworthy, in the London Chrnnicle.

Billie Burke is appearing today at the Breed theatre in a screen version of Alicia Ramsey's Eyes Daughter, which recently was shown on Broad way with Grace George as the star The screen version was arranged by Margaret TurnbuH, while the picture was directed by James Kirkwood An excellent cast, including Thomas Meig- han, William Riley Hatch, Florence Flynn, Lionel Atwill, and others, as well known The story is decidedly different, and the fact that Miss Burke wears frocks of the very latest design adds greatly to the attraction. The third episode of The Eagles Eye is also shown. This chapter is entitled The Plot Against the Fleet, and shows the German plot to torpedo the flag ship and cripple the fleet in New York harbor. Many of the most important facts learned during the spy investiga- tions of the secret service, revealed in this picture. have never been publicly mentioned. In this respect Chief F1ynn's story may be called news in pictures. The Hearst -Pathe News (the world before your eyes) completes the bill for today and tonight
