In a little town in the plain Of
Brabanconne. the summe twilight
filled the winding streets with shad-
ows. Over the cobblestones, bright
checked girls in wooden shoes. blue
dresses, and red kerchiefs trundled
their t~wo-wheeled carts of flowers.
The scented breeze was cool. Here
and ts~re lights begaa to CLEAN be-
hind the windows of the narrow. peak
rooted houses. The tower of the
cathedral rose against the sunset sky
like a misty dream and yet a dreain
immovable. Its seulptured saints
smiled on the peaceful land. All was
quiet In the happy silence that ends
a day well lived.
Then with the stealth OF fairies the
tiny notes played In the air. Softly

There's a wide bare field where ghostly trees
Plead for the mercy of Heaven.
They lift their broken arms and sigh
Against the pitiless, cold, gray sky,
But their prayers are hushed in the cloudy ssas,
And the crows are flying over.
In the desolats waste, the shsll-pits gap;
Their wounded lips bleed peoples.
They are trimmed with rusted guns and swer6A
With bits Of cloth and broken boards,
And their waters mirror the broad wing-fap
OF the crows that are flying over.
Der the battle plain, there's a fierce race
Of the death birds seeking booty.
Together they rush and dip and dart
In the midst of the bleak fields aching heart
There's a lonely cross that marks the place
The black crows are swooping over.

Arabian Niohts.

The Arabian tales, like the romances
Of chivalry, convey us into the fairy
realms, but the human personages
which they introduce are very dissim-
liar.
These tales had their birth after the
Arabians, yielding the empire Of the
sword to the Tartars. the Turks, and
the Persians, had devoted themselves
to commerce, literature, and the arts.
We recognize in them the style of
mercantile people, as we do that of
a warlike nation in the rOmances of
chivalry. Riches and artificial lux
uries dispute the palm with the splen-
did gifts Of the fairies. The heroes
increasingly traverse distant realms,
and the interests Of merchandise excite
their active curiosity. as much as the
love OF renown awakened the spirit
Of the ancient knights.-Anonymous.

This is the moment of moments for
us to find our unity, our spiritual
solidarity, without sacrificing our
diversity and that which is most dis
tinctive to each of cur communions
and which, by the way, is the choicest
possession we have
The reason why we of each denomi-
nation most value that which is dis
tinctive to US is not simply because It
is ours, but because we honestly be-
lieve it is the truth It is our choicest

distinctiveness we want to realize our
