THE MAN WHO TALKS Crudity marks tae earlier stages of life in all its forms. A boy’s work is raw. compared with that of , tramel man. Religion is naturally more cultivated to- day than it was once, ana with cultiva- tion comes the greater capacity for en- joying it. Tsycholysy mforms us that We have an innate capacity for pleasure, and with the capacity (omes the deswe. The old Puritans who were gists said that the desirz for pleasure: was the work of the devil, and thercfore it ought to be crushed We say this de- sire ought to be trained, not crushed, We have no right to crash anything God has jmplanted in as. If there is vais whale- some desire in the nner life thers cught to be some whoicsime cbjcetive in the outer life to satisfy it. Motion pictures, theatrical plays, musical concerts afe very important in furnishing that objec- tive, Of course these things need regu- Jation, as the desire for them needs train- ing. It is a great mistake to suppose that Dpeople are going to be made better by crushing any natural desire. May 5 will alse be memorable in the annals of human history, and especially May- 5, 1821 when Napoleon breathed his last at St. Helena, the desolate reeky islet in southern Atlantic. Intellectually Na- poleon will aways stand in the front rank of the world's great men. No man eer surpassed him fn planning and executing great military schemes, and no man ever approached him in so co-ordinating his schemes as to make one support another. But military affairs did not exhaust his genius. Many competent critics regard his Code Napoleon far and away the greatest and most permanent thing he ever did. Napoleon, however, was the product of a system which is being more and more—and in the future will be uni- versally—discredited. Kaiserism was the dying gasp of absolute militarism. Great as Napoleon was his real value in the changed conditions of today is that of a danger signal. The brilliant meteor of Austerlitz_was a cold, dead stone at St. Helena, In defeat he was less than medi- ocre. Had his qualities of heart and soul heen equal to his mind, he would easily have been the first name in human his- tory. Why Is it that so much interest centers around “Babe” Ruth? It is not confined merely to chromic baseball fans, nor to boys and men of sporting _tehdencies. Prim maidens clap their hite hands when “Babe” Ruth's name is mentioned. Why e-spread popularity? It is due to the fact that this man makes home runs. Now a home run is the me plus ultra of baseball.

We shall find eternity long enongh when we “hit the trafl.” Tt 1t Is true that the American republic “was conceived in liberty,” there is but one thing to do and that is to see to it that it continues in liberty. We are call- ed upon to denounce autocracy wherever and whenever it appears. It was by fisht- ing autocracy in the Revolutionary war that America found herself a free nation. France had to go through the Reign of Terror before she ridded herself of abso- lute monarchy. We fought that monster in this country fn the form of slajery. ‘Wherever men get sufficient power wheth- er they belong to the upper crust or the low- er crust they become despotic. -Just at present it is the lower crust that is doing the autocatic stunt’ It is the awful power tht controls the disposition to work, If it says “No” the man who wants to work—and his family are kept in the bread line. The autocrat is al- ways a despot, whether he pases as kais- crism, militarism or laborism. It Washington or Jefferson in their day had played golf, dignified Puritanic Bos- ton would have been amazed. If Wash- ington had been less serious and had de- veloped the play instinct he would have lived longer. Today the country rejoices that President Harding plays gol. It keeps his body and mind in the right trim for the arduous duties of his great office. Roosevelt taught us_that great les- son. To enjoy our work we must know how to play. This knowledge keeps work from its chief bane, that of drudgery.

It is a aquick growing tree of good habits, and well worth planting here. Although not quite so good as shade trees perhaps, the larger magnolias compensate for any lack in this respect by their beautiful blooms. Two good Kinds are magnolia macrophylla and magnolia glauca. The former has the largest leaves and the largest flowers of any tree that grows outside the trop- fcs, the leaves often measuring 30 Inches long, and the great white flower cups being 'a foot across. The tree is per- fectly hardy, but should have a some- what sheltered position, pecause other- wise the leaves —are whipped into strands by hizh winds. Magnolia glauca is not quite so showy, perhans, but nev- ertheless a very fine tree. In the north it is usually no more than-a large shrub, but in the south makes a good sized tree.

But still the teams and foot soldiers pushed o, yassing their own camps and leading swiftly for the distant Potomac, until for ten miles the road over which the grand army had so lately marched south- ward, gay with unstained banners, was covered with fragments of its retreatinz forces, shattered and panic-stricken a single day. From the branch route the trains a tached to Hunter's division had caught the contagion of the flight and poured in- to its already swollen current an other turbid freshet of confusion and dismay.

In the general retreat all divisions and all regiments were mingled. Regula and volunteers shared the disorder alike. Whole batteries were left upon the field, and the cutting oft of others was ordered when the guns had already been brought two miles or more from the battle ground. A perfect frenzy was upon almost every man. Some cried piteously to be assisted in their helplessne: and others sought to clamber into wagons, the oc- cupants resisting them with bayomets. Even the sentiment of shame had gone. Some of the better men tried to with- stand the rush, and cried out again the fiying groups, caliing them ‘‘cow- ards, poltroons and brutes” and reviling them for so degrading themselves, cspe- cially when no ememy was near, but it was no use. Many of the panic-strick- en soldiers did not cease running until they had cressed the Potomac bridge that ied into Washington. There was, of course, numerous exception§ to the gen- | eral spirit of fear and frenzy, a striking example of which was the New York Zou- | aves. But the battle had ended in dis- | aster and no single body of men could | bring order out of chaos. According to Gen. McDowell's report the federal army’s losses were 481 killed | and 1,041 wounded, while the Confederate losses, according to General Beawpegard's report, counted up 269 killed and 1. wounded. * An fmmense quantity of ord- nance, ammunition, etc, fell inte the hands of the Confederates.

In the interim following tha capture of Fort Sumter both sections of the country were collecting as many men as p The'cry at the North was: “On to Richmond!” and at.the South, “On to Washingion!" ‘The Southern army was gradually working its way north in a threatening attitude, and in the North there was a general demand for the army in and about Washington to go to meet them. Finally, towards the latter part of July, 1861, the Union army advanced. There were slight skirmishes before Bull Run was reached, but at that point the TUnion army found the Confederate army in great strength. It was not long be- fore there was a dash at army. The fighting from the start was furious, and the Union army was unable to with- stand the onslaughts of the Confederates and it was not long before the entire Federal army was disorganized and no attempt to rally them was, possible, The onset 0f that tumultuous retreat by those who witnessed it was described as terriffic. For three miles hosts ' of Federal troops—all detached from their regiments, mingled in ome disorderly rout—were fleeing along the road. Army ‘wagons, sutlers’ tcams and private car- riages choked the passage, tumbling against each other amid clouds of dust and sickening sights and sounds. Horses flying wildly from the battlefleld, many of them in death agony, galloping at ran- dom forward, joined in the stampede. Those on foot who could cat¢h them rode bareback.
