There are many persons, by no think that the Marseillaise is the very finest of all war songs, Certainly it is a great song of freedom as well as of France, and is associated historically with the progress’of liberty among the nations, Youthful America used it be- fore the Star Spangled Banner had been composed; new-born free Russia still sings it, scarcely less often than its own new nafjonal hymn, It binds to- gether in ti memory of Frenchmen a> hundred thriiling scenes of their country’s. history; end to this rosary of patriotism new jewels are added as the great war goes forward. It is not easy to read unmoved the narrative of how, although -sternly proscribed, it ‘was sung recently in one of the invad- ed districts. .A refugee told the story to the American novelist, Mrs, Dorothy | Canfield Fisher: We. have tried our best to keep the life of French children what it ought to be. I remember last year Aunt Louise taught a group of children in our part. of the town to-sing the Mar- selllaise. The studio of my cousin Jean ts at the back of the house and high up; and so she thought the chil- dren's ‘voices could not be heard from the street. The mayor heard of what she was doing, and sent word that he should like to hear them sing. The news spread rapidly. When he ar-} rived with the city ‘council, coming in one by one, as if merely to make acall, they-found the big studio fult' to’ over- flowing ‘fn their. fellow citizgys—the | old. men and women who ari the fel- low citizens left there. Two or_three hundred of them were there—the most | in black, all so silent, so old and so sad. The children were quite abashed by such an audience and filed up on the little platform shyly—our poor, thin, shabby, white-faced children, 50 or 60 of them. There was a pause. The children were half afraid to begin; the rest of us were thinking uneasily that we were running a great risk. Suppose the children’s voices should be heard in the street, after all. Suppose’ the’ Geririan police should enter and’ fili us assembled thus. It would mean hi resented.) The mayor stood near the!; children to give them the signal to be- gin—and dared not. We were silent, our hearts beating fast.

McCabe, returning half ‘an hour later, made this report: “That dog you sent me to see about wasn't mad about anything. I talked it over with him, Why, he wasn't even angry! He treated me us pleasantly as any dog I ever met. It was the neighbors that were mad, and 1 didn't Nave any orders to shoot mad neigh> bors.” The report was filed.
