Nothing connected with the horrors of war is more tragic than the long list of the 'un- known. Those broken fragments from which all identity has been torn away. However crushed and torn there is a certain comfort in knowing that what war has left has been cared for by those that loved, at least, that they could place mark and say he lays here."
 But those others, mangled so that their dearest standing beside the mass of what was, can only wonder, and shudder, and pass on; surely this is tragedy added to tragedy.
 In recognition of these facts England and France have planned a singular honor for their unknown" in the Great War. In Paris on Armistice Day, procession moving along the Boulevard St. Germain and the Champs Elysees will escort the body of an unknown French sol dier on simple gun carriage to the Arc de iriomphe There under the great memorial which bears the names of the generals and the victories of Napoleon he will be buried
 In England the purpose is to place one such victim of the in Westminster Abbey, that spot where only sleep those or her sons to whom England desires to pay her highest honors.
 In thus honorng these two who are typi- cal of thousands, France and England honor them all. America has Arc de Triomphe or Westminster Abbey but in the World War she had her unknown and it would be fitting thing if she would provide some memorial to them as striking and as simple as will be that of the French and English

Daniel Webster
 Never Signed Court
 Membership Role

Washington, Nov iO.-Daniel Webster, one of the most active law yers before the bar of the United States Supreme court, never signed the membership roll of the court
 The absence of Webster's name lawyers was commented on today by Frederick W. Lehman, former so- licitor-genera1 of the United States.
 Maybe the court officials of that day were afraid to tell Webster it was requirement. of the court to sign the ro1l,'' suggested court
 q expect" commented eLhmann, .'that the court listening to Webster decided he was entitled to practice before it whether or not he had signed the ro1l.''
 Associate Justice John H. Clarke, a member of the Supreme court, never practised before the Supreme court as a lawyer, and his name is not on the bar of the court. The same is true of former Associate Justice David Davis, who, after the Hayes-Tilden contest for the Presidency, left the Supreme court to serve as United States Senator from Illinois But as Senator Davis he appeared several times before the Supreme court
 This led Mat Carpenter, one of the most brilliant lawyers of his day. to remark to Senator Davis: ''1t is a wonder you would not qualify your self to practise before the Supreme court by being admitted to the bar of the court"
 Senator Henry Cabot Lodge is one of the few prominent men not law yer to deliver a speech before the United States Supreme court in ses- sion.

 Dr. Newton's subject was the real :ty of religion. and he began his dis course by saying:
 Surely you must not expect me to try to prove to YOU the reality of my Master and yours. Long ago we set E"d +h1t in our hearts and we didn't do 1t by any intellectual process or lvEicGl ;-yninast.cs. z Such a triumpha mt conclusion is not arrived at by such d path"
 Quoting the words of the father of John Wesley to his son as he stood at his bedside during his last mo- n 7ents. that the eternal evidence of Christ is the lives of those in whom Christ has lived again. pr. Newton said that the ultimate proof that Christ lives and still lives is a Christ like man.
 Dr. Newton added that he was sometimes asked whether he believed in reincarnation. and said that his an- swer always was: @'1 do believe in the reincarna ton of Christ again and again and that is what I am always seeking to elize in my own life and you in yours. so to live that me may be pista ken for Him, completely to reincarnate His spirit and His teach ings that men taking knt <cdge of us may know He has been with us''

Today he is leading in this little village the life of a Dutch country gentleman, doing just about as he pleases and going almost where he desires, about the countryside, so long as he stays yvith- in the territorial limits prescribed by the Dutch government.
 The Associated Press correspond ent has been told by those in close touch with the former Emperor that during the past few months William has found much contentment in the life on his new estate here. He is said to feel certain that no further demands for his surrender will be made upon the Holland government.

Dr- Newton enumerated the things that go to make religion unreal as seH-deception or hypocrisy, the habit OF making merchandise of religion uS1ng religion merely as decoration making of religion a matter of eti quette where the form and not the substance are observed, and mere emot1onalism. In the following refer enee under the category of making merchandise of religion some of Dr. Newton's hearers detected yelled alIuS1on to some phases of the late Interchurch Movement:
 When l received circulars very earnestly and ably written telling me to stand by the church because it means the safety of our bank deposits emphasizing the commercial value of Christianity, that our property inter- ests become unstable as religion de- cllnes it hurt me far down in my heart. Religion will become commer- cial and unreal if it is made a matter Of merchandise. This is the age of salesmanship but I don't like the lingo in the Christian pulpit. I don't go around selling religion and the sug- sestion of it hurts
 Dr. Newton professed the belief that there was Titled anger of religion in America becoming matter of mere etiquette. but of the opposite extreme he said
 we are an emotional, explosive people. Our nature expresses itself in a highly emotional religion. Religion with too many of us becomes a ma tier of feeling. not of convictions. When you don't feel like going to church you don't go, yet that is the very time you should go. A religion that comes from emotion and ends in emotion is as unreal as the tragic. sorrow of the matinee"
 Continuing, Dr. Newton said: Re 1gion when it is mere curiosity is empty and unreal I don't know how 1t may be in your cities of Connecti- cut, but New York city is the greatest religious curiosity shop in America. l have taken some pains to make ex-

A BEST MIND"

M JT ONLY do inquiries fail at times to bring forth hoped for replies but fre- quently they uncover facts much peasanter to : have remained in ignorance of It now de- velopes that Will Hayes Chairman fof the Re- publican National Committed had an experi ence of that nature last August following an inquiry concerning some substitute form of tie League, made of Elihu Root who was then in Europe Tn connection with the establishment of an international court a part of the League machinery.
 In his cabed reply Mr. Root is reported to have said:
 H Is very unWise to declare the
 League dead. lt would not be true. The
 League has hardly begun 10 function be-
 cause the terms of peace have not yet been
 enforced by the victorious nationso
 In my opinion new deal here from
 the beginning by abandoning the Versailles
 treaty is impossible. To attempt it would
 bring chaos and entire loss of results of the
 war and general disaster involving the
 United States. The only possible course is
 to keep the treaty, modifying it to meet the
 requirements of the Senate reservations'
 This message, was intended, found it's way to Senator Hardings ears and he is said to have been considerably angry at the distin- gushed Republican lawyer and statesman It was later that he made his Des Moines speech which filled Johnson and BOrah with iov and 1t is since his election that he has spoken of the League "deceased"
 Mr. Harding has all along talked much about advising with best minds' In fact a list of invitations is supposed to be out now summonsing certain of them to conference with him. MT. Root is included. MT. Root should be able to qualify a best mind' even in Marion. O., if actual ability and accomplishment stand for anything
 It is claimed that he has the ablest mind in the Republican party and probably no other Republican has the knowledge and grasp of world affairs which he has, yet we find Sena- tor Harding going on through the campaign saying the very thing which Root cabed would not be true': promising to do if elected Inc very thing which Root said was 'mpossi- ble" and leading thousands of voters to think he was going to pursue a course the exact op- poslte of what Root advised as the only possihIe one.
 For what purpose does Senator Harding wish to see Mr. Root? He has known since last August his opinion of the League and it angered him. Has he changed or is he of the opIn1on that Mr. Root has? Nothing could be farther, apart than the position of Elhu Root and Hiram Johnson, yet each has large following in the Republican party. II is difficult to see how the sPresldent-elect can please both of hem
 Which will it be?

ter and bereaved, if we are to make Christ's religion real, it is by making spiritual nindedness into their public life. That is the spirit and genius of Christian religion"
 Following the afternoon session of the conference yesterday dinner was served in the church parlors. After the dinner there was a social hour featured by impromptu talks by sev- erai delegates in a lighter vein than the formal discussions of the confer ence, but all breathing the spirit of true Christian brotherhood which has been the distinguishing mark of the entire meeting. One of the most sought-after delegates during the so- cial hour was Rev. pr. Herbert D. Gaflaudet, former pastor of the Old North Church, and the warmth with which he was greeted shows that while his field of duty is now outside Bridgeport, hes till retains a large place in the affections of the mem bers of the denominations in this city.
 At the morning session today there were addresses by Rev. William F. English, assistant superintendent of the Missionary Society of Connecticut, on Present Necessities''; by Rev. An ''Tidings From the Keystone state," and by Rev. F. E. Enrich, secretary of the Massachusetts Home Mission ary Society on "Our New England Rev. MT. Emrich pointed out that the Congrega tiona1 churches were pe- culiarly the traditional churches of New England and asserted that the perpetuation of the New England spirit was bound up in their continu- ance.

 wide,

 The foregoing more or less classic. verse, the product of some modest townsman, has been pinned to large elm tree on Maugus avenue.
 It was apparently inspired by the fact that reckless motorist recently crashed into the tree with his car. escaping injury himself but seriously gashing the elm.
