Unity.

 Forgive, O Lord, our severing ways, The separate altars that we raise, The varying tongues that speak thy
 praise. Suffice it now. In time to be Shall one great temple rise to thee, Thy church on broad humanity. White flowers of love its wall shall
 climb, Sweet bells of peace shall ring it's chime, It's days shall all be holy time The hymn. long sought, shall then be
 heard The music of the worlds accord, Contessing Christ, .the inward Word! That song shall swell from shore to
 shore, -H. ,r- One faith, one love- one hope restore The seamless garb that Jesus wore!

THE N AVIAN,

We didn't volunteer. But, God knows. it wasn't fear; We were those who long before Formed the mass that hated war; It took the Hun of Potsdam To show us where we stood; Now we're in it to the finish, And the finish will be good. We didn't. volunteer. But, God knows, it wasn't fear; We'd have gone in later. anyhow We'll, anyhow, we're here! We hate those Huns the Germans, For all the things thy've doae, And of the things we hate them for Our being here is one. We didn't volunteer, But.

THE WAY LOOK AT TT.


 Why didn't wait to be drafted, And be led to. the train by. band: Or out on a claim of exemption? Oh, why did I hold up my hand? Why didn't I wait to be drafted? Why didn't I wait to be cheered? For the drafted men get the credit, While I merely volunteered! And nobody gave me a banquet Nobody said a kind word The puff of the engine. the grind of
 the wheels
 Was all the goodbye I heard, Then off to the training camp hustled, To be drilled for the next half year, And in the shufhe forgotten For I'm only a<volunteer! And perhaps some day in the future, When little boy sits on my knee, And asks what I did in the great war And his little eyes look up at me, I shall have to look up into those eyes That at me so trustfu1ly peer And confess that I wasn't drafted That I, as a sailor, was only a vol

THE CARDINAL LYING IN STATE

Dear Sisters of The Social Corner: To the stream of humanity which fre- quents Firth avenue, was added on Sunday afternoon last the immense throng who came to surround the bier of the late Cardinal Farley
 Long before the hour of opening the Cathedral. the lines extended many blocks along Fifth avenue, walking four abreast taking a few steps for ward at time, each line slowly n1ak- ing its way into the purple draped en- trance of the great Cathedral.
 The writer observed that in these lines were represented every creed and nationality. patiently waiting for hours to obtain a glimpse of the dead face of the great prelate off the Ro- man Catholic church.
 The interior of the Cathedral was draped in purple and black. and as the lines entered and filed up the main aisle the affect of the dim lights on the distant altar. twinkling through the sombr9 decorations of purple and black, deepened the solemnity of the occasion.
 ! The body of the cardinal lying on the sloping catafalque at the foot of the altar was in full view of the pass ing throng. He lay with hands fold- | ed, clad in all the royal vestments of the church which he represented. l The high altar was bare of orna- ments. A few candles were burning At the foot and around the eatafalque were gathered the insignias of his | rank.
 The silence was unbroken save for the footballs of the hurryiiIg multi tude and the voices of the guards urg- ing them on. But as the people pass ed on, the hasty glance winch was taken of that chisled face, lifted high above the multitude, was that of a piece of marble. The face was that of sculptured image, No trace oi Eea. thly shadows marred those quiet features.
 Tho writer would fain have finger ed and 10 have looked longer anG deeper into that singularly beautiful face which perpetuated even in deatl the ideals of life; but the guards al lowed no loitering. But as l passed out of the side entrance, l looked longingly backward to obtain one more glimpse of the reposeful saintly face of the sleeping Cardinal Farley.

some steps viii be taken to encourage
expressions OF opinion upon the part
Of the public for the guidance OF the
