THL TURN 0F THE TIDE
The great success of the Entente Allies in the West IIB-S
been followed by victories in the Dardanelles and Meso-
potamia. 'l‘he glorious news makes the red blood ruil
quicker in every true Brltoii’s veins. The long I00l¢€d-f0l'.
hoped-for turn in the tide has come at last. For fourteen
anxious waiting and rejoice with a gI`02it JOY _that the
cause oi' truth, justice und l'ighl00\lSI\0SS iS DFGVHIUIIZ- But'
as the London Tiines says, the lesson for us to learn is
that to make these victories effective, more men are want-
ed, and surely the response will be immediate and adequate
to the needs. These victories cannot have been obtained
except at great cost, and the call is for men to fill the
trenches and keep the flag flying. Over the 11001” Of U16
Armory of the 21st Essex Fusiliers in Windsor, Ontario, is
painted the following verse which carries a message worth
quoting in this connection:-
'ivmit if the best of your wages be
An empty sleeve-a stiff-59'. km-i‘0-"
A crutch for the rest of life-wlio cares?
So long as the one flag floats and dares."
QUEBEC AND RECRUITING
A correspondent writes: “Wlll you be good enough t0
give publicity to the following nrticle from the Montreal
(iazcltc as during the election an utfcinpt was made to put
thc l-`rcncli elcincnt against the Government on flip duestion
of volinitccring. You will see from this article that Sir
\\f'ilt'i'id Laurier is as strongly committed to support the
tlovei'niiicnt`s war policy' as is Sir Robert L. liordcn him-
self and tho wliolc of thc l~`rcncli leaders in Quebec are
united in calling for rccruitsr”
W 'l‘hc attitude ofthe people of Quebec in regard to the war
is thc subject of’ coinincnt in the newspapers ot' sonic of the
other provinces, and this province’s public men are bcliig
hcld up for cciisiire because they are not earliest enough
'in the work of promoting interest in recruiting. From
opposite sides of the political fence Sir Wilfrid Laurier and
lion. Mr. lllondin have been selected as representatives of
thc indiilcrcnts if not actually opponents of recruiting
work. Sir \\'ilt`rid Laurier is on record in no unequivocal
way. Speaking at St. Lin on August 8, hc declared that
li‘c“'fi\ll_v supported the policy or s'c'n'ding troops to partic-
ipate in wlizit hc called thc great conflict for liberty now
going on in Eliropc. 'l`heii, as reported, he added:
"l speak with all thc authority I possess as leader ol`
thc Liberal' party when i proclaim the fact that I ani bc-
liiiul tho ('niiadinn (iovcrnmcnt in this policy.”
This was straight as it could bc, and hc supported it with
:ulvicc tlial, ii. has bccn declared, helped thc work of rc-
:-rniiing. Nor was this thc only occasioii on which thc
Icadcr of thc Opposition dcvlarcil hinisclt on the issue.
The same day that Sir Wilfrid Laurier so spoke at St.
Lin, Ilon. lilr. lllondin addressed a meeting at Little Magog,
t-oiniiicnding the chivalry of the young Canadians who
had volunteered to take part in the great struggle on behalf
oi’ Great Britain and France. At St. Nnrcisse on Wednes-
day last. addressing a gathering nt the Champlain agricul-
tural show. Mr. lllondin gave expression to his pride at the
way in which thc people of Canada and of Quebec had
shown their zeal in the cause of the Allies and said it was
thc dclcriiiiiiiilion to kccp on until thc wnr was carried to xt
siiccessfiil coiicliisioii. There was no mistaking the
moaning ol` his words. 'l`hf-y nicnnt thc same thing us thc
words ol` Sir \Vili"rid Laurier and the action of the Govcrii-
ment.
'l`hc altitude thus set out is also that ut' other l"rcnch

has drwlari-.d hlniscll' plainly and strongly. and so has lion.

made are not well i`ounde<I.
DEFEATING THE SUBMARIN E
From the moment Great Britain entered the war on the
side of justice and humanity, there were great claims made
forthe destriiclion to be wrought hy the German submarine.
When the German fleet was lierded into seclusion behind
thc fortresses oi’ lleligoland rumour was busy with the
terrible submarines of the German Navy and it was spread
abroad that soon the German U boats would sink so many
of thc British fighting ships that the German high seas
flcct could 'quickly destroy the remainder without serious
effort and then quit-.kly conquer Britain. When this did not
materialize, zi new programme was started by Germany's
dccluratlon of the war zone about Britain and attempting
to destroy British commerce by torpedoing of merchant-
nicn.
Admittedly. Germany has developed her submarines
enormously. Their speed, range of travel, carrying capa-
city, and armament have increased by enormous strides.
She has done all in her power to make them the most effec-
tive engines of destruction oi' their class.
What has been the result of all this? Practically noth-
lux- in the early stages of the war England did lose nev-
cral lighting ships and more recently, a transport. In ad-
dlllon ii few niorchantmen, and fishing boats have been de-
stroyed. The merchant boats destroyed amount to but a
f"Hf‘ll01l Of one per cent. of those engaged in the trade. On
the other hand it has been reliably stated that Germany
has lost practically 80 per cent. of her entire submarine
fleet. The comparison could not be much gloomler for
Germany.
eral of them have been mentioned in general terms. About
the time that the first British battleship was torpedoed, it
was stated that an English scientist had invented a way
of detecting the presence of a submarine at any point with-
in a radius of 20 miles. A little later ll. was stated,
and has been repeated many times since that enormous
iron nets had been placed in spots frequented by suibmar-
ines and that they were arranged as trap nets with floats.
It seems fairly certain that a great many of Germany’s
best U boats have been caught in this way. just picked up
out of the sea. Later it has been stated that Brltaln’s re-
cently organized Board of Inventions headed by Lord Fish-
- er has developed an invention which it is believed will
make s battleship entirely immune to attacks by torpedo.
The latest important development is announced from
Sir Hiram Maxim. It is said that Sir Hiram has invented
means for a submarine to find its exact location at any
time and under any circumstances. This avoids the necess-
ity of coming to the surface to get bearings, thus British in-
vention has triumphed ovcrGerman invention and has en-
abled Britain to completely destroy the greatest menace of
the German navy with comparative little effort. What we
hearnow of British invention to offset the German science,
is hut a fraction oi’ what will be disclosed after completion
oi' the war.
SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST
“Nature red in tooth and claw,” and down among the
beasts of the forest, among the untutored savages, among
the wild things in the vegetable and animal worlds, “tooth
and claw" rule supreme; the weaker goes to the wall, is
trampled under foot or is choked out of existence. Races
of animals and of plants have become extinct because of
the brute strength of their neighbors, and the brute
strength succumbed and perished only when there were no
weaker neighbors to prey upon.
On the higher levels of life where the humane teachings
ol' Christianity and ofa higher civilization rule the actions
of men, the weaker are wards of the community; helpless-
ness is a shield of protection; the "least of these" are a
sacred trust and the manner of our care for them is the
measure of our manhood, the test of our right to be counted
as members of the higher brotherhood of man. I
And yet oil this higher level the hereditary instincts of
our original savagery still nianifest themselves. Brute
force is still zi factor to be reckoned with. Evidence of
this may he found in our international relationships, when,
as at present in Europe, a nation reverts to primeval con-
ditions of savagery, tramples underfoot every law of civ-
ilization and resorts to brute force as the only right. Ger-
many as a nation has lied, has bullied, has committed acts
of cruelly which will for all- time to come make the word
Germanism a synonym of all that is lowest in primitive,
uiitutored, inhuman savagcry. Sliould this savagery pre-
vail ovcr the forces now contending against lt, the world
would bc at thc mercy of a horde of mllltarists whose
ethics would be the cthics of the jungle; human freedom
would be at an cud and the civilized world would be under
the dominance of a government for which it could never
entertain anything but contempt and nliject fear.
. Evideiices of a similar reversion are to be found in thc
industrial and commercial world when we find the monop-
olist driving the weaker competitor to tho wall, whcn the
Golden Rule which should govern ilie actions of men, one
towziiwls thc other, becomes only ii “scrap of paper” and
We find it in the political world when; as occurred in
our own recent provincial election, studied niisrcprcscnta-
tion takes the place of argiiiiieiit; when patriotism. reilg-
ion.. temperancc, morality are invoked, not for the sake
of iurtlierliig thcsc, but to further partizan ends.
l llow near wc arc to the ‘isurvlval of the fittei~it" by brute
force, is indicated by the intensity of the struggle in
iI‘;l1ii`;1l;:‘»ll_>Y :|81 alwful cost in human sacrifice and sullcriiig;

tiivllization is still quite close to Die borderland from
which it emerged only a comparatively few generations
ago, and lt will require the best that the highest form of
civilization can do to save itself from the poisonous ln-
flucnces which it has inherited from the dark and forbid-
ding past. And there is such a. thing as reversion to typc,
oven in civilization. Germanlsm must he sternly fought
not only in national relationships but in the political, the
industrial and comnicrcifil, thc religious and the socim
sphcrc ll' civilization is to endure.
