l wish to speak-or rather, of which I wish to speak again. It is concern ing Violet Grey, the girl who tried 10 save men by that attempt at saw ing out of the pail in 1904. Her judg ment, like my own, was at fault. Her heart was, and is, right. I have said lis" because of the fact that l know She is the mother of two bright and beautiful children, and to her success full husband she Is at once guardian comrade and golden spur" May l hope that the reader yill join with me in wishing for her much happi- ness throughout the rest of life's journey?
 Is someone thinking inquiringly, What of the regrets; the hopes; the loves, If any, of a man who has gone through with all this?" And is someone debating inwardly whether or not society ought to be forgetful of that most darksome part of his past and accept him for what he is today?
 
 what matured life has not at least one? But as we properly refrain from looking mournfully into past that comes not back again with lost opportunities, let, us wisely go for ward in forgetfulness of the bitter trials of dead yesterday; In all pos sible enjoyment of the blessings of today; and in gratitude because of hope for the unborn tomorrow.
 What blessings have 1? The bless ing of vigorous health and of much work to do; the blessing of love in my daily life-given and received; the blessing of the knowledge that the fires through which I passed had a cleansing power; and the blessing of the additional knowlege that there Is a law of compensation whereby If I man gives to the world his best,

that best in some measure will come back to him.

 What of the hopes of this man whcse experiences In part have here beer told? I have a hope as to the here and now, also as concerns the endless Journey beyond. And whether that hope be in relation to the sim pie things of this life from day to day CT i1 relation to the ra1g. d mysteries of things, it is alike sus- t4ining and inspiring.
 Right here, however, this account must end. It is the more impera- tive because of the fact that boy just past is tugging at my knee and, looking up at me with the blue gray eyes of his mother. is inpatient ly calling. "Dadda! Dadda"

 In precisely the same manner that I had entered and seated myself in December of the previous year, I en- tered then. And in almost the same words that he had used on that for mer occasion, the governor asked Justice Frewin to notify me of the boards action in my case.
 MT. Kane" began Justice Frewin in his cool and businesslike manner. the board has considered your ap- plication for parole. It is clearly within the province of the board, as warranted by the statute, to grant whatever form of clemency they may see fit irrespective of the kind that may be petitioned for. In face of that fact, the board has not granted your petition for a parole, but has seen fit to commute your sentence to take effect at once. So then, MT. Kane, by htis action on the part of the state board of pardons, you are now free"

man in Palestine. He had the mis- fortune, long before there ever was a national home, to write book on Zionism, and the Arabs contend, ap- parently with no other reason, that he Is an extremist and that it is inn possible to secure justice in the courts under his supervision. I found him keen minded, tolerant and of almost mystical idealism.
 Sir Wyndham Deedes, the civil secretary, is a Christian. He Is an ascetic, romanticist and hard headed administrator. an interesting combination, though not so unusual as might be supposed.
 As for Sir Herbert Samuel, he Is colder, more urbane, than either of the others, the successful diplomat. the calculating politician, yet work ing always within the limits of strictly interpreted code of ethics. He is so upright that he leans tver backwards" Jews said of him. "Ofter he favors the Arabs at the expen: of the Jews" And I met not sln- gle Arab who accused him of dis honesty or unfairness. "He Is gentleman" Arabs said of him re- pedleuly.
 Yet sometimes they would add, But of course, he is a Zionist" In that added phrase Is the meat of the Arab case against the British gov ernment You cannot be Zionist. you cannot administer a policy based on the Balfour declaration and still be fair to the Arabs.
 Most of the nonJewish officials In Palestine realize this. The majority of Christian Englishmen In govern ment service seem at best uncon- vinced concerning Zionism. l found more than one indiscreetly bitter over what seemed the utterly unfair and uncomprehending attitude of the home government to the Arab
 In some cases 1t seemed to me that their bitterness was rooted, IS Zion ists contend, In a narrow anti-Semi- tism or In party prejudice, but often it was rooted in a realization of the brutality of the British policy in Palestine as far as the Arab was oncerned.-Elizabeth Litzel in Asia.

PALESTINE RULE HONEST

 He Leans Over Backwards"


 He Leans Over Backwards"
 My impression of the government of Palestine was of an honest gov ernment. Certainly there are Zion ists in official positions who let their zeal for their cause run away with their discretion. as there are Arabs whC have learned too well the methods of Turkish bureaucracy. But on the whole, I think the gov ernment of Palestine is honest in the performance of It's duty as defined by the mandate for Palestine And I believe that the men who head it, the high commissioner, the civil secre tary and the legal secretary, are of high motives and singularly lacking in self-interest.
 Norman Bentwich, the legal secre- tary, is said to be the most hated
