The two men started to leave, but
old Christopher turned round and
stretched a hand up and out.
"Son Of Ireland, bright and black
and black and bright may be the pic
ture Of your life, but I see for you
brightness and sweet faces, and music
and song. It's not Irish music, and it's
not Irish song, but the soul Of the
thing Is Irish. Grim things await you,
but you will conquer where the eagle
sways to the shore, where the white
mist fees from the hills, where heroes
meet, where the hand Of Moyra stirs
the blue and the witches flee from the
voice of God. There is honor coming
to you in the world"
Having said his say, with hand out
stretched, having thrilled the air with
the voice Of one who had the soul Of
q prophet, the old man turned. With
head bent forward, he shuffied away
with Michael Clones along the stony
street.
Dyck watched them go, his heart
beating hard, his spirit overwhelmed.
1t was not far he walked, yet every
footstep had a history. Now and
again he met people who knew him.
Some bowed a little too profoundly,
some nodded; but not one stopped to
speak to him, though few among
them were people he had known we'll
In days gone by. Was it the clothes
he wore, or was it that his star had
sunk so low that none could keep it
company? He laughed to himself in
scorn.
At the door OF the inn he shifted
the dinner Michael had ordered.
Man alivel' he said as he entered
the place and saw the two men with
their hands against the bright fire.
There's only one way to live, and
that's the way I'm going to try"
"Well, you'll not try 1t alone, sir, II
you please" said Michael. "rll be
with you, II I may"
And I'll bless you as you CO." said
Christopher Dogan.

CHAPTER TX.
Whittier Now2

England was In state Of unrest.
She had, as yet, been none too sue
cessful IN the war with France. From
the kings castle to the poorest slum
in Seven Dials there was a temper
bordering on despair. Ministries came
and went; statesmen rose and fell
The army was indifferently recruited
and badly paid. England's battles
were fought by men Of whom many
were only mercenaries, with no stake
in England's rise or fall.
The admiralty pursued its course of
seizing men of the mercantile marine,
taking them aboard ships, keeping
them away for months from the har-
tOrs of the kingdom, and then, when
their ships returned, denying them the
right of visiting their homes. The
press-gangs did not contine their ac-
tivitieS to the men of the mercantile
marine. From the streets after dusk
they caught and brought in, often af-
ter ill-reatment, torn from their wives
and sweethearts, knocked on the head
for resisting, tradesmen with busi-
nesses, young men studying for pro-
fesSions, idlers, debtors, out-of-work
men. The marvel is that the British
fleets fought as well as they did.
Poverty and sorrow, loss and be-
reavement. we're in every street,
peeped lnournfully out Of every win
dow, lurked at street corners. From
ali parts of the world adventures
came 70 renew their fortunes in the
turmoil Of London, and every street
was u kaleidoscope Of faces and
clothes and cOIorS, not British, not
patriot, not national.
Among these Outlanders were Dyck

had left Ireland together in the late
autumn, leaving behind them the stir
rings Of the coming revolution and

ems to Dyck. "You don't quite know
what we've been doing, / suppose.
Some of us have been in the navy for
two years. and some for ten. There
are men on this ship who could tell
you stories that would make your
blood run cold-take my word for It.
There's afJot Of things goin' on that

Things are movin', and we've got
to take our stand now when the time
Is ripe for 1t, or else lose 1t forever.
Over at Spithead they're gettin' their
own way. The government are goin'
to send the admiralty board down here,
because our admiral says to them that
It won't be safe goin' unless they do"
"And what are we going to do hereT
asked Dyck. Whats the game of the
fleet at the Nore?"
Ferens replied in low voice:
"Our men are goin' to send out pc
titions-to the admiralty aud to the
house Of commons"
"Why don't you try Lord Howe"
Hes not, In command Of q feet

him, and he's taken no notice"

we ever had! don't believe It." de-

clared Dyck savagely. "Why, the whole
navy believes in Howe They haven't
forgotten what he did In "a. He's as
near to the seaman as the seaman Is
to his mother. He's big enough
friend Of the sailor to waste no time
before doing his turn"
Ferens shook his head morosely.
"That may be-" he said, "but the pc
titions were sent weeks ago, and
there's no sign from Lord Howe. He
was at Bath for gout. My idea Is he
referred them to the admiral COM
manding at Portsmouth, and was told
that behind the whole thing is conspir-
acy-French socialism and English
politics. I give you my word there's
no French agent In the fleet, and II
there were, 1t wouldn't have any eff
feet. Our mems grievances are not
new. They're as old as Cromwell"
Suddenly light of suspicion flashed
into Ferens' face.
You're with US, aren't your You see
the wrongs we've suffered, and how
bad it all is! Yet you haven't been on
a voyage with us. You've only tasted
the life in harbor. Good God, this
life Is heaven to what we have at sea !!

his face for q minute. "Yes, we'd rath-

As he spoke, Dyck looked round the

Michael was seated few feet away,

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 14.-"How to

short sentences by Ferdinand Foch

him on his trip around the country.

moves forward wins" is Fochs for.
mula for success. 1t is a typical

The way not 10 move forward is
by adopting the methods of the bore.
who ruthlessly pushes others aside
that he may reach the front of the
crowd; the self seeker, who tries to
impress on everyone that he is en-
titled to what he is not; the nervous
arrogant man who cannot wait, who
feels that if he does not reach the
front at once the world is lost 10
him." the marshal continued in his
statement.
The way TO move forward is by
patience, by earnest endeavor, by
