ENGLAND'S IDEALS.

CELEBRATION OF ST.

GEORGE'S DAY.

The Royal Society of St. George cele brated their putron saint by a banquet at the Hotel Cecil on April 24th. It was an entirely English function, and the spectacular features were admirably con- caired. The guests were received by the Duchess of Marlborough, a guard of hon- our being provided by the non-commis- sioned officers. anil men of the King's Companies of the English Grenadier and Coldstream Guards, who wore the uniform of the period of Richard II.

The SKCKETARY (Mr. Howard Ruf) read the following message from the Duke of Marlborough My thoughts are with this gathering of fellow-Englishmen. We no longer shout England and St. George," but it would be no bad thing if we did. For we are a strong people and have made history. There would bave been no British Empire hat for English pluck and English common-sense, and these are just the "qualities of which Europe stands mest in need to-day. All nations would benefit if the other peoples who speak our tongue accorded the English more dominaut place in our common counsels and a more authoritative part in our common action."

The CHAIRMAN, in proposing the toast of England," said that unfortunately there were in this countryra good many people who despised the virtue of jutriotism. They were like the umpire who determined to prove his own absolute impartiality by invariably giving his own side out.

As the world was consitituted, in the last resort they must all stand by their own country because there was no superior dominating power to secure. He believed in a League of Nations, but it was not there yet. He did not see any League of Nations or any international authority that was going to do for the whole world what the Courts of Justice did for uch country, uud until there was that supreme Court of Justice the final arbitriment between nations, was the best of war. When that final arbitrament, came it was the duty of every Englishnuan ta Eght for own equntry. That was the only possible attitude to take. (Cheers.)

Lis

These superior persons who were.always giving their own side out, and many of whom were conscientious objectors; were happily in minority in England, but the average Englishman took England's greatness for granted He did his duty ax a loyal citizen without talking about it. The result was that Englishmen got, perhaps, more abuse than they deserved. He did not want Englishmen to swagger, bat he did want them to take the trouble to say and to prove that their own cause was right. (Cheers.).

The House of Lords was the oldest Assembly in the world, and the Corporation of the City of London under one name or another was at least 1,000 years old. The House of Lords, the House of Commons. and Magna Charta represented the body of English law and English constitution which bad served as a model for the whole world. They were justified in being proud of the constitution and the system of law which their ancestors evolvedl.

The most important of all English ideals was the ideal of liberty, During the last 10 or 20 years our people had had to submit to a series of restrictions 4ml Government controls which were tending to sap the Englishman's lare of liberty. It was on those ideale the Empire was built. It they lost them, the Empire would perish. (Cheers.)

Ia proposing the tomat of "Our Pre- sident," the BraHOP OF BIRMINGram paid a tribute to the work the Prince of Wales had done for England. He had carried

essentials of the English character. In his lure of sport be had shown to the world what that meant to England. Another quality was that he was 'natural and did nat let pomposity take the place of diguity. Like his wonderful grand-father, the Prince of Wales had the power to combine dignity with enjoyment. He expressed the hope that they would not overwork the Prince, and that when be returned he would be allowed to have & good rest.

A WAR, INCIDENT.

CAPTAIN CARPENTER, V.C., proposed the toast of The Royal Society of St. Georgo

and Brunches." He id that in minor way, he was fortdaure "enough to be usso- ciated with a little incident in the war that helped to remind people that St. George's Day fell on April Brd. The remin der chiefly came from the fact that a certain signal was make by Sir Roger Keres, "St George for England." (Chopra:) Sir Roger got rather an impertinent reply, for which he (Captain Carpenter) pleaded guilty." (Laughter.) It was interesting to pole. that the signal "St. George for England! was the outcome of a reminder which Bir Roger Keyes had from his wife just bofore he embarked. She said to him, "Don't forget, Roger; to-morrow is St. George's Day." (Cheers)
