And yet It wee reserveti for a coun-

taken its ton of ships. Lying close to

and, at about the end of the 17th cen-

the building of a lighthouse there.
Gaining permission to try, he Set to
work with a will and gradually there
began to rise out of the waters a won-
derful structure. Fashioned for the
most part of wood, it was built on a
polygonal plan, highly ornamented
with galleries and projections. Its
construction was attended with many
adventures. One especially should be
mentioned, wherein the redoubtable

Are We nownheart-

(13y Lieut. J, E. Horton,)
They are are always the same. Nothing
seems to disturb them; nothing sur-
prises them, and nothing can stop
them singing those songs- --
A crowd of them went off from
Victoria Station early a morning or
two ago. The women who had come
to say farewell were smiling and try-
ing to be brave, to make things easier
for their men but nobobdy could have
guessed that the men were anything
but happy. Yet one must not hung-
inc them as having no feelings. That
is to form an utterly wrong impre.s-
elan of them. It is only that they
are typically British and not much
given to self-expression. They aea
simple, and their emotions are simple,
but they go deep; these are thines
hidden far away under ,their cheerful-
ness.
Nearly all these men knew what
they were going back to. They were
under no delusions. They "knew war
as it was when the glamour Is sty!' -
ped away, when there Is nailing cf it
lefthtit blood and wet and terror and
nolo; and, for all of that, they had
not lost sight of the ideal behind A
all ,that makes such ugliness beauli-
ful. Descriptions of men Loin to
France singing have become hackney-
ed. Everybody knows the songs they
shout so loud, and their quaint
phrases -Indian words, Cockney, Am-
erican, French, all jumbled together,
Can ,thev really be as happy as
that, ot is it just to cheer their women
and. children? I heard a man put
that question once. The answer is
that their singing wilt go down the
seined of the train as It goes out, and
will continue long after they have left
the atettion. It will :break out .again
on the channel, and again in the
streete of Boulogiie 'or Calalis. Tr
will go with them in cattle -trucks to
the railhead, , and on to billets, . and
from billets intqathe line, long after
there is any need for pretense. '
Their sense of humor is tuniaing.
Thee is nothing that can happen 'that
