SERVICE
AT NORTH CHURCH
Continued from page y

Continued from page ~
from which the following is an ex-
tract:
"Whcrcas we shall miss his pres
cnce and participation il u meet
ings, his kindly ways, cheerful man
ner, keen intellect, wise counsel,
friendship and association; and
"Whereas, VIC desire to express in
some fitting manner our deep appre-
citation of what his life has meant,
to us individually, to our Brother
hood, to our church, to St. Johns
bury, and the community at large;--
"Now, therefore, be it resolved by
the members of the Brotherhood of
the North Congregational church,
that we extend to the members of his
family who survive him our sincere
sympathy in their great sorrow and
bereavement, which we share, and re-
alize all the more kee1ly by reason of
our own personal grief and ems OF
loss in his departures; yet we know,
and are comforted thereby as they
too doubtless are, that his life was
not one lived in vain, and that his
Christian character will remain a
continuous influence for good here,
even as it also gives assurance OF
his, glorious entry into the more
abundant life of the Hereafter"
The pastor added a personal tri-
butte. referring to Judge Smiths deep
interest in the North church. MI.
Richards said he always thought
deeply and thoroughly and that he
had rarely met a man more eager for
the truth. The earnestness of his
spiritual nature was prominent and
religion to him was an o~mnipreseat
and vital force.
Mrs. A. B. Noyes presented a
warm personal tribute to Mrs. Per-
lev F. Hazen, referring TO her as a
rare woman who was so thoughtful
of others and so given to hospitality,
both in her home on the hill and in
the summer home by the water. She
had a merry heart and was a woman
of cheerful yesterdays and confident
tomorrows.
Mrs. j. S. Weeks spoke of Mrs
Hazen's relation to the patriotic So
ciety of the Daughters of the Ameri-
can Revolution. She said she was
a charter member of st. John de
Crevccoeur chapter, its second re-
gent and had long been its registrar.
She spoke of her great interest in
this organization, her trips to Wash
ington to attend the Continental
| Congress Of the society and of her
prominence in the state organization,
being state regent in 1914 and 1915.
Mrs. S T. Brooks referred very
fcelingly to Mrs. Hazcn's cheerful
disposition. She said Mrs Hazen
owed her musical ability to her
father and her hospitality to her
mother, who was an angel of mercy.
She gave several interesting anec-
dotes Of Mrs. Hazen's parents, pay
ing . high tribute to Mrs. Hazen's
inheritance of her parents many vir-
tues.
Henry w. Ellis spoke very warm
ly of the affection the men that were
once boys in Mrs. Hazen's Sunday
School class had for her and said
that there were many here and else
where that would never forget her
many kind deeds.
In closing the service the pastor
said there vas a rich meaning in life
when that life was richly lived, and
that each one of the members to
whom tributes had been paid were
living epistles, known and read of all
men.

the Tommy. as in many cases they were, and showed it perhaps none too tact fully. The result has been a number ot street rows. exaggerated by the sensa- tional London press, which has nothing to learn In sensationalism from the yell lowest of the papers in the United States. So the irritation was increased and there have been one or two out bursts that would lead one to believe that instead of being allies Britain and America were enemies
 As, matter of fact these are mere surface quarrels-the sort that occur in every family. The men at the top in England and the men at the top in the United States are convinced of the neces- sity of the two countries working to- gether to keep the peace of the world and to insure the prosperity of each The soldiers of both countries only quarre' when they meet in England on what is after all common English speaking ground.
 When they get together on the conti- nent of Europe they fraternalize to the exclusion of the French or any of the soldiers of the other alS>d countries. The American doughboy admires the fighting qualities of the Frog" as he af- fectionately calls the poilu. but he has little use for him as companion, ane Tommy also pays compliments to his gallant Gallic ally, but does not pal up with him But let a bunch of American and British soldiers get together in a French town and they will make a night of 1t together They may chaff each other about who really won the war, and occasionally may quarrel about 1t, but they settle their quarrels in the good old Anglo-Anerican way with bare fists and that's the end of it. There have been really serious fights with knives and even more deadly weapons between English and French, English and Italians and Americans, and men of both these nation alities.
 One thing that I have noticed recently among the governing classes in, England is that no matter how severely their members may criticise President Wilson and his policies at the peace conference. they are always careful to explain that they realise that Wilson is not Amer ica. That is sometimes galling to an American who feels that when Wilson Is abroad representing America his coun- symptomatic of the intense desire among trymen must stand up for him. but it is these people to understand America and to maintain friendly relations with her do not believe that this desire was ever stronger than 1t is now, and it Is due quite as much to sincere admiration for our qualities as it is to gratitude for our help in the war that is over, or to an anticipation of further help in the future-

London, June f.-(Special. )-Will Anglo-American friendship. born dur ing the stress of war. survive the strain of peace? If one were to take at their face value the things that are being said in both countries about the attitude and motives of the other one would say not, but it is the opinion of all competent observers that these things are not really symptomatic of any strain in the friendship, but rather Of the coming to the surface of the inevitable little limitations which were kept under during the time when ev- eryone felt that it was necessary to present a united front to the enemy. It is also entirely likely that a good many of these little irritations have been intensified by the quite neces- sary, and the sometimes unnecessary, restrictions on international inter- course which have remained as the aftermath of the war and must remain until the peace is finally settled.
 In the meantime there is. of course, lot that can be done to minimize these sources of friction, and the greatest thing of all is an honest ef- fort on both sides of the Atlantic to realize that although both Britons and Americans speak English they are dif ferent peoples. There is far too ch of a disposition on the part or the man on the street in England to look on the Americans as transatlantic Eng lishmen, and on the part of the Amer jeans to look on the English as de- generate Americans. Each people is surprised then when the other does something that does not quite jlbe with it's way of looking at things. and at once begins 10 look around for motive to explain this surprising di- vergence from form, while, of coui SC, the explanation is obvious. Things done by America which offend the English would not be noticed at ali if done by the French. and things which England does which annoy America would be passed over with shrug and laugh if they were done by the JaI- anese or the Italians.
 There is no doubt That the quarrel between President Wilson and Senate did America harm in the minds of the minimizing Englishmen. They did not understand that the legislative and executive branches of the American government are separate and distinct from each other and each proper,y jealous of any infringement by the other of it's power and prerogatives. They loked on the dispute as a mere petty quarrel between rival politicians and sided first with one and then witt. the other as the issue seemed to favor Britains policy or otherwise. while despising them both for washing their dirty linen In public. Thats of course, is an extreme statement of the mental

WHITE SAYSPARTY
 SUCCESS DEPENDS 0N SUFFRAGE ACTION
Refusal of the Democratic States To Ratify Anthony Amendment Will Mean
 Republican Victory

Capt. Frank s. White. former United States senator from Alabama. believes the state legislature should ratify the An thony suffrage amendment. In state ment issued yesterday he expressed the belief that refusal by democratic states to ratifly will jeopardize if not make inn possible democratic success in the nation next year. He writes:
 Tn reply to your question as to the cratic party by the rejection or post ponement of action on the suffrage amendment by the legislature of this state, will say that in my judgment it will be decidedly hurtful, if not disas- trous.
 'The ratification of this amendment by a sufficient number of states is now d foregone conclusion. This will within a very short time enable millions of women to vote. Their support will be either at- tracted to or driven from the party by the failure of democratic states in grant ing or refusing them the right of suf- frage. No newly enfranchised voters have ever failed to show their apprecia- tion to the party enfranchising them by giving it support, or their enmity to the party opposing their admission to the electorate, by voting against it.
 '"The indifference or opposition of dem ocratic states, which would prevent or de- fer the ratification, of this amendment so as to withhold from women the right to vote in the next presidential election would not only incur the displeasure of women who have the right to vote, but would also incur the opposition of that large class of male voters who are in favor of equal suffrage. Wherever equal suffrage has been granted in a state it has the effect of making the male voters of the state adherents of eqHal suffrage, for not to give their adherentS would be political suicide for them. To be frank and candid, the indifference or opposition of democratic states to the ratification of this amendment would not only pre- vent the election of a democratic Presi- dent in the next election, but would re- candidates for both houses of Congress tc leave that party in the minority in both houses.
 In considering this question it must not be overlooked that there are enough states now in which women have the right to vote to turn the scale in any presidential or congressional election against the party mourning the opposi- ton of these voters and their friends For democratic states to oppose the rat iflcation of this amendment will be to invite the opposition of the women cs well as the men who favor their en- franchiSement.

Then again many British wero intensely irritated by what they re- garded as President Wilson's "holie ~ than thou" attitude, which they called more politely his impractical ideal ism They failed to realize that the President was speaking for a people
 with no European interests, to a group of peoples whose future security rest ed on their obtaining what many Americans no doubt would consider harsh terms of peace from Germany.
 Another source of irritation in thls country at any rate has been due to the undoubted friction between our troops in England and the British soldiers. This friction has been due to a perfectly nat ural cause. Our men have had more money to spend than the British and have, therefore, got the best of every thing in the shops and in all the public resorts. They have also got the prettiest girls and the British soldier naturally resented this and passed on his resent cent to his civilian relatives. On their side our men felt themselves superior to
