The one of us who's travelled most Says England, stretching far beyond Her narrow borders, means a host Of countries where her word's her bond Because she's steadfast, everywhere the same, To play the game. Our college chum (my mate these days) Thinks England is a garden where There blooms in English speech and ways, Nurtured in faith and thought we share, A fellowship of pride we make our own, And ours alone. And England's all we say, but framed Too big for shallow words to hold. We tell our bit and halt, ashamed, Feeling the things that can't be told; And so we're one and all in camp to-night, And come to fight. * * * * * "No judgment of recent years has aroused more widespread interest than that of Mr. Justice Bargrave Deane, in which he decided that the Slingsby baby was the son of his mother."--_Evening News._ Wonderful men our judges. * * * * * [Illustration: _Doctor._ "YOU'LL BE ALL RIGHT NOW, AND I HAVE MUCH PLEASURE IN RETURNING YOU THE TWO SOVEREIGNS WHICH I FOUND SHOT INTO YOU WITH THE PURSE." _Sergeant._ "THANK YOU, SIR; I DON'T CALL HALF A QUID DEAR FOR DOIN' THAT JOB." _Doctor._ "I DON'T FOLLOW YOU." _Sergeant._ "WELL, I HAD TWO-POUND-TEN IN THAT PURSE."] * * * * * HOW TO DEAL WITH SUBMARINES. ["_The Syren and Shipping_ offers £500 to the captain, officers and crew of the first British merchant vessel which succeeds in sinking a German submarine."--_The Times._] In order to assist captains of merchant ships to deal with raiding submarines, a few suggestions and comments, which it is hoped will be helpful, are offered by our Naval Expert. In the absence of a 4·7 naval gun, a provision suggested as useful by a writer in _The Times_, any 13-inch shells that you happen to have on board might be hoisted over the side, disguised as bunches of bananas, and dropped on to the offending submarine. If this does not sink her at once, additional bunches should be dropped. But before disposing of your shells be sure that your submarine is close alongside. In case she should hold off, let the first mate beckon to her, in a manner as nonchalant as possible, to come closer. When the enemy boards your ship, the captain should endeavour to interest the boarding party with the latest war news from German bulletins, whilst the bo'sun, the second steward and the stewardess, with the aid of peashooters, pour liquid explosive down the submarine's periscope.
