» 1 ÏREtw-æK- •-.-••■<* ;■ '"•••:• ;< - ' The, Editor Talks A good friend in Plymouth, -England, -England, sends us "The Sunday Pictorial" which weekly contains a splendidly written article by Horatio Bottomley, editor of "John Bull." He is a most virile and pungent publicist. These' paragraphs will convey some idea of the character of this great English writer's literary productions. In the article from which we take these excerpts excerpts he- is making a plea for the spiritual revival of the nation. A former article had aroused the ire of some churchmen, who said his opinions opinions have little interest for any persons persons of intelligence. After referring to some spiteful utterances against him, he says: Come, come, my Christian critics-- have we made so little progress,.after all, since the gates of hell were opened opened in August, 1914 ? I had hoped that in the- -presence of this great world tragedy our old narrow, sectarian wrangles had gone for ever, and that ■we were all to-day yearning for one great Church and Faith, which should bring us nearer to God than we have ever been before. In my own war verses I have endeavored to express that view; and I venture to quote lines:-- Come, comrade, we must answer-- and let our answer be-- Why is the red blood flowing?--To Chasten you and me. "les, comrade, that's the message; so let us bow the head ; God cheer the weeping women--God bless the silent dead. And from this very moment, we'll open a fresh page; Record. our resolution--the birth of this new age-- To make our aim and purpose--that, too, will be the test-- To prove this world we live in, of all the worlds the best; And justify our mission, to put in highest place, O'er all the-Peoples .of the. Earth, - the Anglo-Saxon race. Now, may I say how I would like, to see the People spiritualized, elevated and purified by the sacrifice and suffering suffering of this war? I -am no rreügion-. ist, and as I have often said, I would rather that my tongue were cut from its roots, or my hand stricken with palsy, than that I. should speak or write a word pf insincerity in regard to a subject so grave and solemn as the ordeal through which the • world is passing to-day. God knows that it should bring to the surface the best which is in every one of us. To me, personally, it has meant a new view of life--and of death. But instead of making me an upbraider of my fellow fellow man I am disposed to be more tolerant tolerant of his faults. I remember that: There is so much good in the worst of Us, And so much bad in the best of us, That it ill becomes any one of us To find fault with the rest of us. And I want to suggest to. the priests and parsons and ministers of all denominations denominations that there is one way in which, even whilst the guns are booming booming and our brothers are falling, we may all be brought, every day of our. lives, nearer to God. proclaim the call to meditation and to prayer.

Comparing the fatal accidents on all railroads during the five-year period, frpm 1906 to 1910, inclusive, with the five years, .1911 to 1915 inclusive, the average number of employees on duty killed each, year during the first five years named was 3,572, while the average for each year of ,the second five year period named' was only 2,569, a decrease decrease of 28 per cent. This decrease was made in spite of a greater number number of men ..employed. In the first five-year period there was one trainman trainman killed out of each 155 trainmen employed, while in the second five- year period there was one trainman killed out of each 213 trainmen employed. employed. The record of passenger fatalities has improved correspondingly, as during the-first five-year period there was one passenger killed: in a train accident each year out of every 183,- 000,000 passengers carried one mile, while during the second five-year period there was but one passenger killed in a train accident , each year out of every 555,000,000 passengers carried one mile. Thus it will be seen that there has been a wonderful improvement improvement in the record, as far as employees employees and passengers are concerned. * ' * * * A peculiar condition was revealed also by the records of accidents to the people over which the railways have no, or very little, control.
