The road leading to an old castle- in the Weat of England which nearly air centuriea ago rang with the shrieks of an king ia lined this afternoon of a fins Saturday in Angus vita an ni crowd. An air of eager anticipation is on every fees The little town. or an that remains of it for. indeed. the crowd consists in the main of women and ejnMi with a sprinkling of elderly men is gathered here.

Some company out of the ordinary most aorety be expected. Presently there is a stir and murmur of excitement as the first of a rg of motor-cars is seen approaching. A moment later it. mtr through the arched gateway a storm of cheers. The occupants clad in the pale blue uniform which has lately become "i'i' to us all.

reply with smiles and wavings of the hand. Another ear and another. and another Neb greeted more heartily. if that be possible than the one before until now some 60 convalescent wounded soldiers have passed within these ancient watts to enjoy the hospitality of the great hall of Berkeley Castle. Turning aside.

with a constriction of the heart we feel that for once applause has been bestowed where it is most thoroughly deserved. Through the long corridors of memory another picture This time we are by the sea at Portsmouth. Two children are play. mg on the stone causeway by the waters edge. one trips and falls.

Several persons hasten to the spot. but before they can do anything there is a second and a louder splash. A Merino Artilleryman from the adjacent barracks has plunged in and recovered the child. Seeing it to be more frightened than damaged he deposits it on a bench. shakes himself as a Newfound.

land might. and strides away but before he disappears the bystanders moved by a common impulse start clapping their hands in hi. honour. Never will they forget that scene. Then.

too. was applause well earned. COUNTERFEIT AD REAL. It is after being fortunate enough to see such sights I these that one amazed. perhaps ashamed to reflect upon what slight and even mean occasions applause is granted and from what noble actions and careers it is at least contemporaneously withheld.

A man may all his days on behalf of his fellows may give his life for thorn on the battlefield in the laboratory on a lepers island. in the slums and yet never hear such plaudits I round nightly in the ears not of great actors only but of second-rate performers all over the world. This fancied life in others' breath" may be accorded to a barnstormer but withheld from a Father Damien It is one of the monstrous absurdities of the world. The counterfeit is cheered. the real unnoticed.

Shakespeare himself won more applause it i probable. when playing a minor part. in one his own dramas than he ever earned for his. constructive genius. How the irony of i must have struck him So much hooour for a walking shadow a poor player so little for a vast and creative imagination.

re the moralist will certainty remind us that the really great stand in no need of such expressions of esteem One approving hour whole worlds outweighs Of stupid starer and of loud buzzes Ana more true joy r1l1xuus eziisa reels Than with a Senate at his heels. Very likely but the poet. falling a victim to the lure of antithesis fallaciously represents all applause as stupid and unthinking which it net-d not be and makes the integrity of MarcellWl a foil to the vanity of Caesar. But take the of a true patriot. if ever there was one.

Did Cicero know a happier or prouder moment than that in which his fellow-citizens hailed him deservedly aa father of his country Even the complacent exile of Mar. cellos might have been solaced one imagines a little outspoken approbation of his merits. he sell-approving hour is good. no doubt- though it may be enjoyed by the successful wrongdoer Be well Be the hero The crowd hoots at me said a miser of old but I pat myself on the beck as I count up my gold at lomo but we mortals with a few philosophic exceptions. stand in need of others.

approbation from the cradle to the grave. What said that wise woman Mary Lamb A child is fed with milk and praise and men. we know. are but children of a larger growth. you would make a man misanthropic.

would freeze the genial current. of his soul abstain rum praising him. With the performances of actors. singers and musicians an opportunity for the direct expression of praise is afforded which 1. not available for the remoter effluences of mind and spirit.

Those appeal directly both to eye and ear. these to the more recondite court. of judgment and reflection. Good actors orators. and so forth merit as well as win their meed of commendation but bad or indifferent ones too often obtain applause which they have not deserved.

The error is in part. due to the bad taste and want of critical power of their hearers in part to the base astuteness of those who tander to these defects. Three persons profess know what the public wants and cater for it accordingly. As a matter of act they largely create and unquestionably ostor the degraded appetite to which they minister. But it was not always so in the worlds it was not BO until amusements were commercialized.

If stupid and blatant revuu are applauded nigtiQy as they are at such a time as this whom are we to blame. those who Trovide or those who patronize them Neither can escape reproof. To both parties the more sober and self-respecting section of the community which is also incomparably the larger portion. might address itself as follows We do not desire to banish amusements though we may have no heart for it ourselves but cannbt you who furnish it find something a little more elevated in tone cannot you. the patrons.

at a time when our dead are lying in their hundreds with their feel to the stars insist on having something a little leas atrociously unseemly With countless examples of heroic deeds and probably unexampled self-sacrifice is this an that you between you can contribute to the national well-being 7 lIu not the time come when a reformation of taste not to say of feeling might be attempted Or are you quite incapable of seeing the deadly incongruity of pplause bestowed impartially on the latest inanities of the revue stage and on the wounded men at.

Sir Robert Borden. Prime MV of the Dominion Canada is now about to return to Canada. His visit has been a memorable one. He arrived by the Adriatic on July 8. his chief object being to discuss the war and the ftn situation with the Imperial authorities.

At. the invitation of Mr. aq he attended the Cabinet Council held on July 14 thus creating a precedent of extraordinary importance. More than one of the Prime Ministers of the Dominions bad attended meetings of the Committee of Imperial Defence. but.

this was the first occasion when one of them was present at an ordinary meeting of MHb Majesty's Servants. Sir Robert Borden made some memorable speeches during his visit. particularly when he received the freedom of the City of London. and when he spoke with Mr. Balfour at the London Opera House.

Towards the end of July he ed the Channel and visited the British and French lines. Both there and in this country he was unwearied in visiting the Canadian troops and the wounded in hospital. FAREWELL MESSAGE ON THE PRICE OF VICTORY. Sir Robert. Borden has given the following farewell message to the Press wing the visit.

now drawing to a conctosion. 1 have had the advantage of discussing with members of the British Government matters of great moment and I am convinced that' those discussions will lea to men effective coo Delation in our common purpose. From Information thus received. I am assured that all possible steps are being tarn to carry on end complete the enormous preparation necessary to ensure the triumph of the Allied nations. Not.

only in the justice of their cause but. in numbers end resource thot nations possess an overwhhnig superiority. In our Empire we have advanced from almost utter lark of preparation a twelvemonth ago to the organization training arming. and equipment of huge forces on a scale unprecedented In our history Beyond question great things have been accomplished during that. period.

although a years experience makes it clear that even more might have been achieved if in the beffinninx we had thoroughly comprehended the magnitude of' our teak. The very greatness of our and the momentous issues which hang in the balance imperatively command our earnest united and highest effort. Granted that effort and victory is assured. No reverse or discouragement whether in the pest or in the More can be sufficient to stay it. Nowhere have I found a firmer and truer spirit of courage and determination than among the men at the trout and the wounded In the hospitals.

Speaking to them on many occasions during the past two months I have been infinite moved by their wonderful response to the. thought that the cause for which they here risked their lives touches then the interest and influence of our Empire that. it. concerns the More of civilization and humanity. It.

was my hope and my purpose to visit an the Canadian wounded. and I nave indeed visited 40 hospitals and spoken to thousands of them. trust that those in charge of hospitals which I did no visit will convey my message to the Canadian wounded under their care. To them. and to the wounded from Ml parts of the Empire.

I send a ma of sympathy for all that. they have suffered and endured. of gratitude for their splendid response to the Empires need. and of pride for the magnificent valour wt dititinguisbod them in the field. WIUTBY JET TRADE.

REVIVAL OP A NEGLECTED INDUSTRY. The war has caused a partial revival of the jet in. dustry at Whitby. The Whithy jet trade. which In 1860 employed 1000 men and a dozen years later was estimated at something approaching 1:100.000 in value.

had fallen to very small proportions owing to changes in fashion and to the introduction of foreign shoddy material. But the limitation of frrein trade owing to the war and the difficulty of obtaining sufficient black 'Wand other substitutes for bangles brooches hatpins end dram ornaments together with the prevalence of mourning has created a fresh demand and all the local workers are now again busily employed.

THE BOATSWAINS MATE.

MISS ETHEL SMYTHS OVERTURE. The audience at.

But the name does not matter. The overture is built up on a number of clear end happy- tune and if the com. poser has as many more good tunes for the opera itaeU it should be worth hearing.

There is however. one already familiar tune in the overture. Miss myth' March of the Women. and. at.

the. risk of betel accused of unmusical prejudices it may be that it is the least interesting one in the score. Tbe overture is richly scored perhaps a trifle heavily but the excellent playing under MMS Smyths vigor- one beat produced a very spirited Impresaloim.
