There are a number of important measures coming before the teneral | assembiy committees for hearings | which the presence and words of cit-| zens, who know the conditions and | ihose which are sought, would aid ma- terially. If legislation is worth hav-| ing it is worth working for and at these special hearings the attendamce of! those who can inform the committee is not only going te be of much value to them in reaching their decision, but t is going to demonsirate that those | who are seeking the legislation are in earnest in semding the bills to the leg- slature.

Not only throughout this eountry but also in Canada has the Boy movement received an enthu astic welcome. It promises to be of wide- | spread benefit in its influence upon | the boys, not ¢ ¥ as an interesting and valuable study during their boy- hood, but as a developer of their fac- ulties for reliance and 3 initiative. Tt has so many good features that it | is not surprising that it has met with such success. | Interest is readily awakened in the boys and the movement does nol lack | for membership. Rather does it suf- | fer from lack of directors or scout masters, those who have the time and inclination to devote their efforis to helping the boys. Canada like other sections is experiencing this trouble and the Ottawa Citizen savs “The difficulty is to secure scoutinasters who will glve themselves to the work | of management and leadership.

The declaration of Attorney Genmeral McReynolds in 'behalf of the anti- trust law and the retention of the most of his assistants is in line with the training that he has received in that particular branch of the government's work. This is a direct compliment to ex-Attorney General Wickersham un- der whom the new official received his training and a direct endorsement of the pelicies under which the past administration has maintained its an- | tagonism 1o trusts. As a successor to one of the most efficient attorney generals the country has ever had James . McReynoids is weli qualified to take up the work which the port- folio tmposes.

From all the allies Turkeyr has re- ceived severe repuises and the longer the sirife continues the weaker grows the opposition which she is able to offer.

What were their expectations based upon, and who is responsible for them?

The opposite opinion is a necessity. 1If it wasn't it would fade away. The good book classifies men as the good and the evil: but the world lines them up as the rich and the poor, and shows no inciigation to yield to the better way. The good poor man has few admirers in this world, while the evil h man has no lack of them. The rich are often seen sitting n high and influential places regardless of their morals; and the poor in lowly and menial positions notwithstandins their worth. The church has been trying to get this old world to break away from heathenism for 2,000 years: but the world declines to do it. Tho motive of men in heathendom is for seif—in real Christendom it should bhe for others. So long as the men of Christendom do not differ in nature or motive from the heathen no wonder they laugh at us.

March hes arrived, and we are all , “How short the winter has seemed.” Time goes so quickly that 1t seeme but a shert time since we were told of a long, hard winter to be expected, and woful predictions were in eirculation of all manner of signs of long and pretracted cold. What the goese-bone revealed, the squirrels, the moss-grown trees, the husks on the corn, even the skunks were called upon te give the coming season an uneavory reputation. But now it !s March and bluebirds, and robins, and phoebs and blackbirds are denying all reports of the other wood folk and wood lore of the autumn. “March comes in like a lion,” we are told, but the only roar we heard on his first day was that of thinder. The winds have roared somewhat since, to be sure, but we need them to ciear the air of all the unhealthy germs that 1 have accummulated during the win- | ter, and we should be thankful for them as for a blessing in disgulse. We do not always appreciate our Llessings, I fear. 1 wonder why this month of all the year is called March. We all know it is named from the god of war, but which is cause and which effect? Is it called March because of its charac- ter, or has this name wrought upon the month to produce the customary weather of the semson? Who can tell” They say, “Give a dog a bad name and hang him.” Does anyone suppose the weather would be milder if the month had been named Silvia instead of March? Meantime the stronx winds must be met with what cour- age we have, and a month hence we shall probably find ourselves saying on the first of April that March was not so bad as we feared it' would be. How many different meanings are given .to this word Mgrch! A war- like thought is woven into most of them to_remind us, I suppose, of its origin. We connect it with the ad- vance of troops and the order for such advance. Some of us remember watching the troops start for the seat of war. and many a woman's heart was sorely tried when the order to march was heard. A brave smile and cheery word of farewell concealed many a throb of anguish. Mothers, sisters, and sweethearts could have revealed a world of sorrow, nobly kept back as the parting & and blessing were bestowed, for the de- parting hero must have only smile: tc remember as his last look was giv en to his loved ones. With what eagerness all news from the front was read! “My boy is or- dered to march” meant so much. when there ‘was so much doubt as o the result of that march. Would he be among the number who returned to camp after battle or among those left on the field. or, perchance, he would fall exhausted on the way and be captured, and from the stage of the war to its ending, earliest | the | general feeling was that a southern prison was a_worse fate than wounds er even death on the battiefleld. #@arching does not always mean war. We apply the term to any state- ly procession moving in dignified form to celebrate some event more than usually imposing. The escort of some noted leader, the progress of a newly-elected official to and fro one point to another we term a march. The parade of various societies or lodges is often called a march. and I presume our suffragette sisters desire to be said to march, but their arrival in various stages of exhaustion at the cities they have favored with their presence can hardly be included in the term march, a dignified, stately progress. Stlll another meaning is often glv- en to the word, or used to be. March. to border upon. This meaning is often productive of dispute rather than the result of contest. Where one state borders upon another it is often said to march with it, and many = quarrel over such lines has arisen to grow into something even more seri- ous, perhaps even leading into war: Just now all the world is watching sdch a contest in Burope'between the Turks and those whose boundaries march with theirs, and on our own continent, what Is making us watch Mexico so closely except® that our boundary marches with -them? We are all more or less compelled to remember the first meaning of the word in our daily life work “When duty calls we must obey,” and our crders to march often come to us as a forcible command. There is no avoiding such command unless we wish to encounter defeat or be over talken by the enemy and made captive by some habit which holds us in im- prisonment, from which it is difficuit to escape. Intemperance, extravagance excess of all sorts, claim their victims every day from those who disobeyed the order to march when duty was la command. Poverty is the fine to be worked out in some cases. It could have been avoided, had the pauper marced in the ranks of industry in- stead of loitering by the way. Shift- lessness brings the tramp to our door for his morning meal after a night's lodging’ in the siation house. He re- fused to march when opportunity off- ered him the chance, and is now de- pendent on those whose thrift has made them leaders in the march of life. Many of our self-made men, noted in marked degree in their line of work owe their success to the strenuous march they made at the start at the order of ambition and desire for im- provement. Look where you will among the leaders of men in all lines of progress, and you will find that they '‘marched to orders in early life often against their will. Go thou ané do_likewise. One!” two March! AN three! IDLER. fi ISUNDAY MORNING TALKI _— WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN. Is there a mere tragic word in the English tongue than the little word “if"? It is a hinge on which the door of fate swings open or fast closed. It suggests possibilities, but those that may never be realized. It injects the one incalculable element into any sit- vation. It is a tragic little word. It Columbus had not been mislead by a flight of parrots coming from the southwest, he would not have changed his westward course and would hav had the honor, as it seems of discov ering, not an insignificant island of the West Indies, but the mainland of Vir- ginia. There were plenty of ships on that Northern sea the night the Titanic sank. If the Trautenfels—but a few miles distant, had been equipped with wireless, if the operator on another liner, posscssing a good wireless equipment, had not retired at 10 o'clock on the fateful evening, there might have been no iragedy. As the mind plays with possibilities fn the case of such a disester, it is impossi- ble to stifle the fecling of the poet that Of all sad words of tongue or pen The saddest are these, it might have been. Brooding on personal losses, men feel the little word word “if” rankling in_their hearts like a thorn. In the valley of the shadow of death. we lam- ent, “if I had only called in the doctor soomer!” or, “if 1 had only consented to some other sort of treatment!’ The torturing thought presents itsel that some other course might have avoided this grief and loss. Through all the vears men have felt with sad- eved Martha, beside the lifeless bod7 of Lazarus, “Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.” When some opportunity has esc them, men will often spend vears vain regrets. If they had only the worth of that invention, if they had only realized that the march of trade was to be up that street, how they mi~ht have profited. If the lawyer had chosen to be a merchant, ped if the doctor had chosen to be a journ- | alist. what happiness and success might have come. Through brooding on the little word with re- d e if, lives may become overcast gret or paralyzed with bitterness an remorse. All about us people swelling the sad chorus of thos mourning over what seem irremedia- ble mistakes. What shall break the svell of such regretful moods and set the mourner free? What shall rob the word if of its terror and rouse us from the benumb- ing speculation as to “‘what have been?’ Simply the conviction that the plans of men and love. Simply the faith of Apostie Paul, than whom no man was ever more thoroughly battered about, that, to the devout soul, “all things work together for good.” The lifting of the veil that hides the invisible world might show us that secret springs of benevolence are be- hind much that to human veiw is baf- Aing and cruel. Behind the inscruta- ble ways of god there lic reacon and right, a truth each genera n_ must appropriate anew. With all our hoast- ed modern science there is still much for us to learn in this regard from the simple child-like piety of the Middle Ages. Man exhausts his part when he does his best, lives up to the clearest light vouchsafed him, makes full use of every power within his hand.
