themselves in the art of playing mu-
sic, that they are a great credit to
Father Renauds zeal and persever-
ance, which is apparent in all things
which he undertakes, and an acquis-
ition to the community. Father Re
maud says it is a great pleasure to
work with such young people as
make up this orchestra. for it is evil
dent, from the manner in which each
member works both at rehearsals
and at their public appearances that
they enjoy the work and study and
that they are aware of the great bene-
fits they derive from the orchestral
work knowing we'll that such an
undertaking would fail, in course of
time if there should be no means at
hand for recruiting new members,
hence Father Renaud has organized a
second orchestra, known as the St
Agnes Orchestra from which he can
draw when the older members drop

out. This st. Agnes Orchestra is
made up of is young ladies and these
young ladies have also acquitted
themselves in a most praiseworthy
manner, endeavoring to gain as much
as possible from this opportunity for
the study of music. Like the older
members these young ladies are a
credit to the promoter of the orches-
ira school in this parish, Rev. Father
Renaud. Both of the orchestras are
to give public concert on Sunday
evening, Oct. 9th in the Opera house
under the direction of Prof j. Abbott
Kendall. The concert will be given

Tablet Dedicated to
Albert Edward Scott,
A World War Hero

Brookline, Mass, Oct. 5.-A bronze
tablet, depicting the death of Albert
Edward Scott, a 15-year- old news
boy who died beside his sho-sho gun
in France after having killed and
injured 81 Germans, will be dedicat-
ed here on Oct. 2S. with exercises at
which William Jennings Bryan will
make the principal address.
The memorial, which has been
placed on the Town Hall, is the gift
of newsboys of Greater Boston. of
whom "Scotty" was one until he
volunteered for service overseas.
The tablet, reproduced from a paint
ing by Gale Hoskins based on official
photographs, cost the newsboys
$1,000.
President Harding and Vice-Presi-
dent Coolidge, expressing regret at
their inability to be present for the
dedication exercises, approved the
memorial in letters made public to-
day. The president, in a letter to
Edward Keevin, director of the
Roosevelt Newsboys' Association
which had charge of raising the
funds. expressed approval also of the
plan to have Mr.. Bryan make the
principal address in his stead, add
ing that with the former secretary
of state as speaker "a most appeal
in address was assured.
Vice president Coolidge paid a
tribute to boys who sell papers, say
ing:

There is no experience in which they
do not have a part, and no life which
they do not live. They are Ameri-
cans. To their spirit, to their enter
prise, to their courage, to their de-
votion. it is altogether fitting that a
memorial should be erected bearing
the name of one of the number who
has. become immortal"
A boys band of 800 pieces from
New York will have a part in the
program.
"Scotty' dropped his newspapers
one day to enlist, less than a month
after he was graduated from gram
mar school. A few weeks later he
was in France as a member of the
1O1st Infantry Regiment. At Epieds,
July %, 1918, a year later, the boy
volunteered for extra hazardous SER
vice.

lieutenant. That's your target, not
Hun must cross it,
Yes, sir" said Scotty, saluted and
took up his sho-sho gun. Single
handed he held the path while he
killed or crippled 81 Germans, then
died from his wounds.

war period have been insufficient to
ray it.
England was declared to be on
the road to ruin half a dozen times
during the century of costly wars
which ended with The battle of Wa
terloo and which raised the British
public debt from c 50000,000 to $780,
100000. France was declared 'econom-
ically ruined three times within
two centuries. She had not only been
depleted of men and treasure by the
disastrous campaigns of Louis XIV,
of Napoleon and of the Franco Prus-
sian War but on all three occasions
she lost, like Germany, great portions
of her national domain. France paid
so-called impossible indemnities. Her
history after 1920 and 1915 and 1871
is an open book Nobody in 1861
would have admitted that the Amer
lean people, without impoverishing
themselves could have paid after the
war aggregate annual taxes IL times
greater than then borne. But the
American people did it.
II am quite aware Of the danger of
historical analogy. Because an I'M
precedented economic burden proved
to be bearable SO or 100 years ago, it
does not necessarily follow that
similar burden 10-fold or 100 fold
greater will be bearable today. Some
where there may be q breaking point.
Germany was nearly a century in re-
covering from the Thirty Years War
and the downfall of the Roman EN-
rire was followed by six centuries of
an industrially paralyzed Europe.
We cannot therefore, say that such
results are impossible"
Mr.. Moves said, however. that he
had discovered one exceedingly in
teresting fact in the history of the
last century-'namely, that the pro-
ducing power, the wealth accumu-
lating power and the tax-payipg
power increased after every great
war faster even than the huge bur-
dens which had been piled on the
shoulders of progressive nations"
