NATION'S THANKSGIVING.
Reverently, sincerely, a great congrega). tion assembled on November 12th to offer within St. Paul's their tribute of thanks. giving for victory. The King and Queen, with Princess Mary, the Duke of Con- naught, and other members of the Royal family, were present. In all the long annals of · the Cathedral of the Empire." where for Marlborough's and Welling- ton's great deeds of arms a people's thankfulness found, expression after daya of stress and anxiety there can have been nothing so moving in its deep and simple; fervour as this service. It is said that soon after eight in the morning people ́ were waiting before the western doors in their eagerness to take part in the soleran act of worship. Certain it is that no service has ever drawn a larger throug within the walls. There was not an un occupied inch of standing room. To the remotest corners behind the chapels even, people were content to find place and beyond hearing the rolling waves of sound they could have known nothing of the ser vice.

There had been no time to enhance the austere grandeur of the huilding by any sort of decoration. On the High Altar were two vases filled with white flowers, just as there would have been for the matine and evensong of any day. Before the rails of the Chantel were the three prie.Dien set for the King, and and their daughter; immediately around them were chairs for the other mem- hers of the Royal house.

the Benediction, pro nounced by the Archbishop of Canterbury before the
altar, followed by National Anthem-the full three verses- in which the thousands of voices were led by the organ, and the band in massive uniaon, while the thunderous roll of the drums seemed to re-echo the very gune of the front. It was a great ending to a great service, and the Archbishops, pausing in the recession, were joined by the King and Queen to be escorted to the weatern doors-Daily Telegraph.
PRAYER BEFORE BATTLE.
Presiding at a prayer meeting for City men at the Mansion Houso, Alder- man Bir Lultum Pound said that when the orders were given out at the General Headquarters for the great British offen- sive one of the Bishops of ti Church of England, who happened to be there, suggested to Bir Douglas Haig a most unprecedented thing that just at that very busy moment the G.HQ work should be stopped, and that all present should ask for the Divine guidance and blessing on what was about to be under- takon. And it was dono.
