A HUMAN* STORY
I have he»rd a good story about
a luncheon attended by Dr. Page at
which were entertained a number of
wounded American volunteers who
had been present at the' great serv
ice In St. Paul's that solemnized
the entry of America into the war.
During the luncheon one of the
wounded said to him across the
t&tllp;
"Mr. Ambassador, there was just
■one Ih'ng wron* with that service.'1
"What was that?"
"We couldn't yell."
"Then why don't you yell now?"
The man climbed on to a chair
and. waving his napkin, shouted,
"Boys, the Ambassador says we may
yell. Let's yell.'1
"3o," said Mr. Pag© telling the
stcry, "they yelled' for I've minutes
and I yelled with them. We all
felt better for it."—London Daily
Mail.
DR. PAGE'S RESIGNATION'
The resignation of the United
3>ates Ambassador, owinp- to lll
hea.tb, came as a surprise to the
Senna] T>ubiic, who were unaware
h«"w much Dr. Page has had- to stru
gle against continual bodily afflic
tion at a time when the calls upon
tim were very great. We have
never had a more popular Ambas
sador. We carried out his great
mission with a nobility and sineer
'ty which deeply stirred this coun
try on many occasions. There was
a loftv idealism about his speech
es which made a very powerful ap
peal just when the two ereat na
tions >vere dvawing together in the
ilgfct for civilization and freedom.—
