The tables looked lovely with big yellow pump- kins filled with apples and grapes. After all had enjoyed the supper, The Girl in the Fur Coat was put on by Enniskillen young folk.

In saving it, they lost something else--and time alone shall tell which was the more valuable. The British have chosen the other course. They may sacrifice in flame and ashes the greatest city in the world, but they may.save some- thing else too, that is very precious: self-respect, honour, some- thing that for lack of a better term might be called a national soul. The words of the Gospel, "For what shall it profit a man, if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul?' were not perhaps written for quite these circumstances, but they come forcibly to mind as the bombs shrick down. the walls crumble, and the dust and smoke roll across old London. The words were written, perhaps of another kind of sacrifice than that which the ordinary people of Britain are making to-day. Perhaps soul is not quite the right word. When the British win through after an ordeal of this kind, they may have lost London, but they will have saved something more valuable to their future--their integrity as a people. Milton's statue crashed down into the street from St. Giles Cripplegate. But suppose the statue still stood, and the freedom for which Milton himself struggled were blotted out? The very tombs of Chaucer and Gower may be splintered into shards, but suppose the tongue they-moulded were to be prohibited in their own city? - "The little church beside the peaceful Avon where: Shakes- peare sleeps may tumble into ruin, but suppose his words were to survive only as a Teutonic translation? The old monuments of London fall, the outcropping of Roman walls erumble at last after 2,000 years, the tower of William the Conqueror may topple, the London of Johnson and Dickens and Thackeray may become dust. co . The British are staking everything on the future rather than on the past. They have chosen to make bomb-fodder of the monuments of the past, hoping and believing that those very ruins] will be recognized in the future as a monument to their couragel and their integrity. Even, if the British lose London, they stake all on the hope of finding something infinitely more. precious. We, as Canadian teachers, must continue to do our full share in helping {he Mother- land to that infinitely more precious thing. .
