FUTURE OF THE BRITISH. "WE STAND AT A DOOR IN HISTORY WHICH NO NATION HAB

The greatness of England; ** sounds in the ears of any Amerian who remounts the stream of time to the bend

waters of his own loyalties.

--HENRY JAMESH. This is an bour when Englishwen may of the justly consider the greatness British Cominon wealth.

We confront a new age, standing a door in history which no nation has yet opened. Some would have us take hope and courage for this adventure from the character of the good comrades who go with us America in particular, but also glorious France, passionate Italy, and, others. I think we shall better please our friends, full of gladness as we are for thair loyal companionship, if we seek con. fidence in our own English hearts.

One of our serious writers bas gone ao far of late as to place England certain ly in the second place among the nations, perhaps lower still, hailing America as "the greatest nation the world has ever Been." This is flattery, suspicious Bat- tery, the flattery of a nervous mind, and it will be repugnant to uọ one more than to the American. With real restraint, in an article fall of noble expression and the sound of deep moral sincerity, the Times has described President Wilson's visit to these head-waters of American loyalties as one of the greatest events in our own and in American history." This is better. And it is true.

Few consummations to which English people look forward are more greatly to o desired than a close unton of epirit between the froe nations of the British Commonwealth and the bold people of the United States; and we may believe that before a generation bas passed this hon- ourable and affectionate union of Eng lish-speaking democracies will be the chief corner-stone of a League of Nations. But so fair and reasonable a hope will not strengthen our knees for the present pass. The true confidence in this in- mediateness can cums only from ourselves, from faith in our British destiny, frum trust in our British character.

John Masefield told me he naked a for. eigner lately what most struck him in' England, and received for answer, "The spirituality of your people." Masefield, somewhat surprised at the moment, asket his acquaintance where he had discerned this quality "Wherever I go," replied the foreigner; but particularly in traina, buses, and trams," That is a tribute to our tenderness, To be spiritual is not, na some still think, to make long prayers, or to be anxious about one's soul, or to eling loyally to the wreckage of a broken dogmatism: it is to be beautifully man. cao spring only nered.

Much that is noble in British character

comes, I think, from our love of justice. We have really and greatly loved justice and freedom and truth-not the politi cal or religious forms of these virtues, but the virtues themselves, and not for the State or for the Church to which we belong but for the individual man, for the Parson in the independence of his own boul, and in the privacy of his own domestic life.
