So he landed an army: in France and started for Paris, French King and his allies with a huge army attacked Enward's force at Crecy, in 1346. The French were beaten and their host whe overwhelmed. The battle was noteworthy from the fact that it was by peasant archers fighting pgainst knights:{n armor.

At the battle of Crecy, gunpowder is said to havd been used for first time. The cannon were of wood and leather, bound with fron boops. {4 From Crecy, Edward marched on the seaport ‘city of Calais. It was chief port for the pirates who yearly ravaged the British coast and h English commerce. Its possession would also give’ Edward the m of the English Channel. So he laid siege to it.

Edward's rage broke out afresh at sight of them and he ordered six to be beheaded. Philippa heard of the order.

Then Philippa, secordin o_o? «(to the old chronicles, replied: “T crossed the sea and endured much peril for you. I have fotlo your fortunes meekly and have never before begged one favor of you. I entreat you to spare these innocent men.” “I would rather you had been anywhere else than hero,” grumbled tl King. “But have your way. Take the prisoners. I give them to you do with them what you will.” England was in those days not noted for clemency. Nor was m a fashionable virtue. Philippa’s gentle example was quoted far and n and the magnanimous lesson it taught softened the rude brutality of b subjects, turning many of them to chivalry and forbearance and having marked effect on their action in future sieges and battles. THe y Prince, eldest of Philippa’s twelve children, inherited so much of mother’s mercy and learned so much from her teachings that he becan known the land over as the gentlest and most chivalric as well most valiant warrior on earth. % What Love Means to a Girl—and toa Man. w ut By Helen Oldficld, ue not SH Tooter ttt ears ta Oe 8 Wis love comes, in spite of all her dreams and re-/her fingers in greeting and makes answer to hs remarks in monosyllables, stit- OH!
