National Fortitude. One of the gr. atest surprises of the present war is the steadiness. of the national nerve, and the calmness with which nowe ot defeat or disaster in received. Mr. Lloyd George was quite right when he said that it matters little what happens to you, but it mát- ters everything how you take it... 1 be news of the binking of three craisers in the North Sta, the loss of a submarine, the internment of 1000 or so of our best fighting men, the reported loss of H.M.S. Monmouth, sll these and other events have been taken with a mental poise which has been as crdinary. All hearts are wrung by the terror and tragedy of this war, but our knees do not abake nor do our Lands hang down. Every one recognises that there must be ebb and flow upon the field of battle, "The for fung battle line" is not an inflexible bar to the progress of an enemy."
