New vonx. september 19.-'1-he suii says editorlally: England presents 'at the present moment a striking spaces. cle oi' national regeneration. Until' two months ago she seemed to be plunged into a torpor from which it appeared impossible to awaken her. Her wars in the Soudan and in South Africa, the imminent menace of armed rebellion in Ireland and the exasperating out- rages ol! the militant suffragettes were powerless to arouse her from her. sleeping sickness. The remainder of the world either gloated or moaned

over her decadence.

But since the beginning of August

"“ ‘ "'H= be'-Il M i-'I v~~io|i~i cm, _ Englishmen have shown since- they threw down the gauntlet to' Germany uareiy seven weeks ago, that all the talk concerning the moral and physical deterioration of their race is without ' foundation, and that they remain true . to the original stock from which so many of ns on this side of the Atlantic

are proud to trace our descent. '

War Talked a Miracle _,

It needed the call to arms to work

the miracle. The call, not for tho pur- pose of protecting or acquiring far distant possessions, as in the case of EEYDts.lu and South African cam- paigns, bitt to maintain the solemnly- pllghted word of the nation. Instantly the men who but yesterday were dub- bed “Flannelied - Fools" by their fav orlte poet, and were thought _to have no interest in life beyond cricket and football ‘sprang to their feet, filled with enthusiasm, as ready to give every drop of their blood for the safety and honor of their native land as their sires wiien a hundred years ago they

Englishmen Misunderstood.

The Englisliman is a much inisu-

nerstood individual, and his cliarutrtcr is it good deal of a riddle to the for- eigner. llc is so anxious to keep an open niiml, to weigh things impartial- iy and to postpone the necessity oi’ rcziclilng ii conviction that he has often been looked upon as impossible to rouse to nctlon. The zeal which he shows not to do a thing until it is ali- soluteiy necessary has been apt. to dc- -_:elvc people into the belief that hc could not do the .thing if he tried. It ‘las ben raslily concluded that because he tolerated and accepted matters that were distasteful and injurious to him rather than deal with them encr- getlcally and promptly he was dociid- ent and ready to submit to anything rather than to involve himself in avoid- able trouble and expense. lie has con- .tributed to this impression hy his readiness to grumble at and to crit- icize cvcrything pcrtainning to the iimplrc.

Ilut ict there come ai ilnic when the

-ionor .ind thc safety of the nation are it stake and hc is iluick to action, as lulck and as patriotic today as those if his fort-hi-ars of old to wlioln Eng- :ind is indi-htcd for thc grandest pages |l` her two tliouszind years of his- ;ory.

That is one of the lessons, one of the

-nost inspiring lessons of the war now raging in the old world.
