APRIL 23, 1080 BRITISH SPIRIT. ‘Do-day is St. George's day. St. George is the Patron Saint of England; and the English spirit has now come to be recognized as the British spirit. There may be differ- ences in characteristics north and south of the Tweed. but to-day Saint Day to place upon record the pride that we feel in our fellows, especially as these racial qualities are generally unrecognized. Doubtless, the love of playing games and of witnessing them; a determination to keep the rules of cricket, football, boxing; team-work, as in rowing, where the individual must subordinate his personal when we speak of the British spirit. or the mglish spirit, we mean the spirit of the Anglo-Saxon race gen- erally. On an occasion like this. in times like these, it is well to accentuate idiosyncrasies to a serviceable co- operation wlth the rest of the crew. have brought out qualities which prove helpful in the stress oi ser- ious days, when to win at a pastime is as nothing compared with the what is meant by the Britishcpirit.

The British soul is exemplified by trust- worthiness, loyalty and faith, the Britain's word still remaining,_and being accepted as, being as good as a bond. The late Rt. Hon. Timothy Michael Hcaly, the first Govemor- General of the Irish Free State, at o, demonstration in Dublin warned his hearers against regarding the Emglish as stupid. ‘They are the cleverest people in the world", he said, and humorously suggested that often the Einglishmens alleged conditions when the game is being lost, cheerfriness under defeat and a. hand-clasp of good fellowship with the victors; such aspects oi moral courage as these. discovered and developed in the playing fields, are priceless when it comes to the crises, inevitable, of international of or civil strife and danger.

Confusion between the signifi- cancc of a brigade and a division has misled our contemporary into an unfortunate error in its editor- ial comment on the Second Battle of Ypres. It states that the Second and Third Canadian Divisions were in the line at that time, and that the First Division was in reserve near Vlamertinghe. The fact is that the only Canadian troops who par- ticipated in the Ypres engagement of April, 1015, were the original veterans of the First Division. The Second and‘ Third Divisions had not then reached Flanders. Today-St. George's Day-has a double claim upon the memory of British people. It is celebrated as the anniversary of England's pgfl- ron saint, and also of Shakespeare, who is believed to have been born April 23, 1504, and who certainly died on April 23, i810. The Boy Scouts, who also claim St. George as their patron saint, will com- memoratc the anniversary locally by a church parade tomorrow. In England two memorable events will mark today's significance-the an- nual service of the Order of St. Michael and St. George in St, Paul's Cathedral, and the opening of the Shakespeare Mgmbflfl Theatre at Strstford-on-Avou.

The writer proceeds to say that whatever may be thought of the historical character of St. George's martrydom, the fact of his being honored a martyr by the Catholic Church, of churches being dedicated to him, and the arm George's Arm, is‘ traced by Pape- ‘broch, by Mllner and other writers, to so early a date, and brought so immediately into contact with tho times of the angry conflicts in which George of Cappadocia figured as_ an Arian leader, that it is im- possible to believe that the Catholics of the East-while the tomb of St. Athanasius was hardly closed on his honored relics-would accept as a sainted martyr his cruel and un- scrupulous utor. The St. George of the Eastern Church was no doubt a real personage of an ear- lier date than George of Cappu- dooia, but beyond this we can say nothing of him. ‘ FROM THE LATIN Today, my friend is seventy-five; He tells his tale with no regret; His brave old eyes are steadfast Yet.
