WYMAN,
FOUR YEARS Or YAR
,lust four years ago Great
Britain sent to Germany a menage
pregnant with possibilities,- ole the
answer to which au entire world
tolxiously awaited, It was a message
which meant that Great Britain
would stance by her treaty engage-
ments, and would throw her power
into line to prevent the tearing up
of international agreements and to
prevent Germany's desire for a
place 221 the sun, be. trampling out
tIlwcali.ar nations, from becoming
A (,.,+lit',. It Iva, an eittmatum that
Comeee teethe midoielet, of that
drys August 4, hold should send a
salisetete ry reply to Britain's query
as p, elerman>'s intentions toward
Belgnm, failing; which reply the
British Ambassador was to ask for
his passports.
The answer did not come, and
Britain prepared to go to Beigium'S
aid, The envy sailed for an unknown
destination, prepared for eventuali-
ties. The girders were given for the
mobilization of the British Expedi-
Meary Force. Within a few weeks
that ',tree had entered the field
against the Germans, and the epic of
the retreat from Mons followed. The
"contemptible little (British) army"
played its part. It held the Germans
back until Jnffre's plans were com-
plete, and the first battle of the
Marne was fought and won by the
Allies, with the British army playing
an important part,
Since that time wondrous changes
have come about, With the declara-
tion of tear, the British Empire an-
swered the blood call, English and
Scotch, Welsh and Irish, and over-
seas men of all four races, respond,
ed to the call to arms. The "con-
temptible little army" proved the
dragon's teeth which, when sowed,
brought forth thousands of warriors.
The "Old Contemptibles" were but
the first 16o,oto of the British re-
gular army of 500,000 The half -a
million in their turn led the way
for the 7,500,000 men, who since
that time have donned khaki and
have placed their all on the alter of
Empire,
Four years have elapsed since that
momentous decision was taken, a
decision from which Britain and the
Empire have never wavered, despite
tate activities of Sinn Feiners, de-
featists, pacir>r and British Junk-
ers. They base been four years of
ntitedes. le that time the seem-
ingly impossible has been achieved.
On August 4, t914, there were
500,000 men in arms in the British
Empire. On August 1 of that year
Kitchener, of honored memory, call-
ed for an additional 100,000 leen,
who responded within two weeks.
From September 2 to September 8
of the same year 250,000 men vol-
untarily presented themselves at tine
recruiting offices. By May, 1916,
they had grown to 5,000,000 men,
of wham all but 750,000 were vol-
unteers, cheerfully answering the
call of duty, To -day the record
stands at 7,500,000, of whom 6,500-
000 enlisted from the " tight little
islands," and a million went from
overseas to answer the tali of the
Motherland, of Empire need, of
world democracy, From Canada
have gone a routed half million, from
Australia slightly less in number,
from New Zealand, from South
Africa, from all the crown colonies,
dependencies and protectorates, as
well as from other lands, Engish-
men, Scotchmen and Irishmen the
call ringing in their ears, have given
up all that iltey held dear, all that was
in their possession or in prospect, to
answer the appeal of the another.
The old lion, no longer even appar-
ently decadent, was well answered
by her cubs, The blood ran true to
form.
From England went two out of
every 15 of the population, frotn
Scotland the same, from Ireland one
in 26, from Wales one in 10, from
roverseas one in 15. 'Canada con-
buted 7 per cent of her total
population, British South Africa and
Australia event one better with 8 per
cent, while New Zealand topped them
all with 10 per cent,
And of these. A million British-
ers, hone grown or colonial, from
the Motherland' or the Dominions,
lie in the fields of Prance and Fland-
ers, of Gallipoli or Egypt, of Palestine
or Mesopotamia, or amid the swamps
or jungles or deserts of the former
German colonies of Southwest Africa,
East Africa of the Kanlermt. Many
are prisoners of the Huns -but for
every Britiisher held in Germany there
are four Germans in Britian, Hund-
reds of thousands of others have been
wounded, many of whom are to -day
once again in the fighting. Canada
gave of some 50,000 of her best
blood, with still greater numbers
who throughout their life will carry
with them living momentoes of their
Britain on August 4, 1914, went
to War to custaln treaty abilgatlons,
Behind t'rit. was Britain's resolve be
ensure freedom for the small na-
tlrnls against aggrandizement by the
more powerful, In this resolve she
stands unchanged. Seven million,
live hundred thousand men, khaki
eked, sifted solid behind the resolve
to bring victory, thereby assuring
the rights of teatimes to determine
titer own fate, a0d giving demos•
raey the opportunity which Germany
would strangle forever. Four years
have passed, and have but served to
strengthen the British people in this
resolve, a resolve now shared by 23
rnii i demortatic nations through -
Call the Wotid,
heroic teats. Vitunv fridge, frill 70,
above all the Second Hattie of Ypres,
are a fete of the battles in which
Canadians added lustre to their
name- to the name of the British
Empire's fighting forces.
And to -day the Umpire commences
the fifth year of the tear, Not yet
is the end in sight, A staggering
blow has been struck at the Hun.
The failure of the submarine cam-
paign leas been proven, despite the
boastful utterances of the Kaiser. A
nlllion Americans are in France.
with a million more at the way, and
mllions behind them in reserve if
needed, France and Italy are still
heroically guarding the gates against
the Hula. Britain is caling for
still greater sacrifices, and even men
of 50 are now forming part of that
final reserve which will drive home
to Berlbl. The end of the tear is
not in sight, but there is no doubt
as to the ultimate reckoning which
Germany will have to pay,
Great Britain on the Joh
COMES TO BAT SO MANY TIMES
WHEN A PINCH HIT IS NEEDED--
TRIBUTE
EEDED-TRIBUTE FROM A WESTERN AM-
ERICAN PAPER.
Linder the head "England on the
Job," the Kansas City Times says: -
While we are congratulating our-
selves on the showing made by our
men in France let us not forget to
whom we are indebted for the lift in
getting thein there,
Getting our troops across in ef-
fective numbers was a problem that
came down to a question of ships,
and we didn't have them, That is
where England came to bat again
as site has so many times when a
pinch hit was needed. England had
some ships, to be sure, but she also
had use for them , Ships are Eng-
land's only guarantee that dinner will
be ready at the usual hour. If for
any reason they do not keep steadily
going between the grocery store and
the kitchen door meals are likely to
be mighty irregular -England being
in this respect like a family without
a refrigerator,
England took the risk of interrupt-
ing this Grocery store deliverey to help
get our troops to France in time to
block the big drive at Paris and the
Channel, She turned food ships into
troop transports, took another hitch
in her belt and told the family for four
months, during April, May, June and
July, there would, figuratively speak -
