In support et this contention Mr. Red- mond Bays that "from. Ireland, ac - Cording to tbe latest figures, 173,772 Irishmen. are serving in the nay Y and army, reIlresenting all elastics and Creeds anima our people. Careful in.- euiries made through the churches in the north of England and Scotland and from other sonrces, show that, in addition, at least 160.000 sous of the hien race, most of them bern in Ire - feed. have JoIned the colors in Great 13ritain. It is a pathetic circuinstance that these Irisnmen in non -Irish re- gitnents are almost forgotten, except when their names appear in the cas- ualty llets. Some of the Irish papeeit have for a considerable time past been publiehisg speolal lists of Wiled and wounded under the heading 'Welt Casualtiee in British Regiment.'" In this article Mr, Redmond saye that; "As showine the extent to which Eicottistt regiments at the front ere Made up of Irishmen, one newspaper quote e four hundred names from the casualty lists issued on four succes- sive days In one week. All the nano are Lesh. all the addreases are Scotch, and in -only about twenty cases were the men enrolled. in Irish regiments, These ead records acne the mime thousands of irisbnlen serving in non -Irish regiments who are -stover taken into account to credit of ere - land. in estimating the part she es playing In this war, until they come to lighe in the casualty Itsts, In ad,- ditIon to these voluntary contribus dons of Ireland and her sons it Great' Britain and to the tritish Army, I am Informed on the highest author- ity that from twenty to twenty-five per cent, of all the troope from the Overseas Dominions are men of Irish blood. I received a New Year's card from the commanding officer and the other officers of a. reginie.nt raised in Vancouver, coMmanded by Ildshmen and cemposed of leishMen. They call Ithenae.elves 'The Vancouve Irish Tusiliers.' Then, not long since, in Cape Town, green. 'itura were present- ed by General Botha's- wife -:-a mem- ber of the historic Emmet family— to an high regiment raised'. there. Then there is that remarkable Irish battalion of the Canadian ExPedition- ary Force, the Irish ,Canadian Rang- ers. which is composed of Irish Cath- olics and Irish Protestants in aquae numbers dommanilea by officers more than half of whom .are Catholics and having a Catholic chaplain and a Protestant chaplain. The Irish race Is represented in this war by at least half a million of men, who have vol- untarily joined the colors." Having thus made out a very #ood case for the -Irish, Mr. Redmond de- clares that "I am proud of the Ulster reginients as I am of the Nationalist regiments. I do not want to boast of their valor. Wo Irishmen aro inclined to take it as a matter of eourse, These Irish regiments—Ilnionint and Na- tionalist—merely keep up the tree), tionz of our race. But I say that Lord Kitchener's( words remain true—the words that he wrote to the Vice -regal Recruiting Conferenee in "publin in 1915, when he said that in' the matter or recruiting, "Ireland's performance has been magnificent.' Let mo ask any fair-mJaded man this question: If five years ago anyone had predicted that a great war in which the Einpire was engaged 173,772 men would have been raised in Ireland, and that there would be more than half a million Irishmen with the colors, would he not have been looked upon as a lune atle? It is *the free offering of Ire- land. Surely it raust be regarded as a• proud and astonishing Word." The New York Times has discover- ed that most • of the pacifist, "anti - militarist" organizations which made considerable noise for a time are either dead or In a state of suspend- ed estimation. It quotes a federal of- ficial ag saying "the movement has petered out; its Italy° membership has boiled down to the professional gas bag elementien its heyday it boastitd such nal' as Prof. David Starr Jordan, Gov. Whitman of New 'York, Amos Pinched, Prof. Museey, of CoIunabia, Prof. Emily Batch, of Wel-. Lesley, Jane Addams, and Mayor Elea Hylan, of New York. Soine of these have withdrawn; others are merely quiescent, but the old organi- zatione—the American Union Against Militarism, the Emergency Peace Fee - Swollen, the Civil Liberties Itureati, the WoMen's Peaee Party—are all gaapieg for breath if they have not actually expired.

A Great Aid—Develop It for Yourself, •••••••••,M00..1••••••••• Did yon ever notice the difference between the bearing of a big, strong (log and a Peppery little whelp? The latter =keit an awftil show of hine self, making as big' a noise as possible, and putting up a front. The big dog, who knows his own strength and therefore doesn't care what kind of show he makes, is quiet, reposed and dignified in his bcaring. . The same rule applies to human nature. If you were to study expression you would find among the important rules bearing on the psychology of expression that conscious weakness is expressed by a bold and aggressive front, and that conscious strength Is expressed by a quiet, reserved atti- tude, In conscious weakness, one stands with the weight thrown on the forward foot and with the chest thrust ont in an assumption of bold- ness. In conscious strength, the weight is drawn neck upon the rear foot, or one stands easily with both .feet together --an example of poise, and perhaps more or less disinterest- edness. Therefore, in attempting to convey the" impression of eelnconfi- deuce be very sure of your psychology on this noint. The modest and re- served bearing is far more impreseive than the brassy, noisy front. In the attempt to butte self-confi- dence. accuding to orthodox methods, there is always danger of increasing one's self•consciousness to such an extent that the difficulty is only exag.. gerated.
