In her presence | there is no room for despair. To such as are troubled by any sort | of doubt or indecision she is like tha breath of the morning! | Catherine Breshkovskaya loves Russia—why shouldn't she? It is h native land—and not for a moment has she wavered in the conviction that ultimately her unfortunate country is to win out over the bad men who ave trying to degrade and ruin it. Nr ‘There is something sublime in the faith that burns bright and clear | in the little woman's soul! It {s sublime like Niagara, like the sight of ca the starry heavens, like the thought of eternity! a Russia will not fail to “come back”; she cannot fail. At least Russia Means well, like every other country loves right and decency; and the thought of victory for the ghouls and vampires who are trying to destroy | her ts impossible. The bare entertainment of such thought would be @ monstrous crime. )) Such ts this woman's rock-ribbed and unfaltering faith. It reminds us of the faith that Lincoln had within his soul all through the dark days of his struggle for the preservation of the Union. Those dark 4; were many, and by temperament the great leader was just the sort of man to feel their gloom, but not once did he lose sight of his star shining through the darkness, In the blackest night it cheered him with its twinkle and kept him hopeful while many about him were in despair. | With a faith that would brook no compromise, he said one day to cer- | é tain “weak sisters” about him, “We have got to win this war. It is right y that we should win it. We will win it.” \ And just here we are reminded of the word that a distinguished Eng- \ Uishwoman sends to us from “over there.” She assures us that it was the , "American war consciousness with its certainty of final victory” that oon- quered the Germans. j Our boys went over there and sprang to their work not only with the ‘gaudium certaminis, the “love of battle,” but with the fide feducia, “faith and confidence;” and so we may understand why it was that they were q Anvincible; why it came about that as they fought their way through the terrible Argonne Forest they never once retreated, or while attacking the { famous “Hindenburg Line” never once showed their backs to the foe. ' There is nothing like it—this faith in one's self and in one’s Cause. It is such faith that moves mountains, that beats down every menace fo truth and right, including even Prussianism and Bolshevism, and that enables nations and individuals to make good their aims.
