In entering upon this mighty enterprise, he approached the matter with the utmost gravity and serid ousness. I never saw him so of months first was as he during those at the war. We rallied him one morning breakfast for refusing to laugh at some The times are very serious, he Jest said, and once more he seemed to be lost in his own thoughts again. He used to describe the moment when the western world passed from peace to war as the most solemn and awful in his whole life. We sat waiting for Big Ben to strike the hour when the ultimatum expired. We all fell quite silent. As the great blows of the hammer sounded on the bell we seemed to be passing into another world." grave-minde- j The situation looked black in February, 1915, although Italy had declared war against 'Austria, and Botha, the Boer general, had conquered the Germans in southwest Africa. In the autumn of 1915 Lloyd George issued his great war address foreshadowing the need of conscription. The greatest and most exacitng of all the taks was the munition-makin0 In June, 1915, the army had only When Lloyd shells on hand. George left the ministry of munitions In June, 1916, he had provided shells in millions. He himself mastered the technic of he visited the factories and studied the machinery: g. 75,-00- shell-makin- g; The real secret, indeed, of his ' work was that he kept in touch with the armies of the western front, constantly visiting them, studying their needs, on the spot, listening to the actual fighting men. Above all he studied the German inventions. After a short w'hile, thanks to the labors of our young scientists from the universities, he was able to provide our soldiers with that enabled to them face unshaken the worst deviltry of the enemy, and with gas that was a fit reply to theirs. He provided our men with which made them a fair match when they faced the flamethrowers of the Teuton. I remember his taking me, one day in 1915, to see his little collection of these horrible devices in the basement of the old Metropole hotel. He shpwed me the model shells, mounting by slow gradations to a giants height. He lingered halfway along this row of shells. He put his hand on one. When I started the ministry, he said, our shells only went as high as this. The German shells went to the top of the range. Was that fair to our soldiers? It was a vivid illustration of what they were achieving. gas-mas- The last year of the war was the most critical, and we have General testimony to the effect that the chief reason for the German defeat was the war spirit which had been aroused in England by Lloyd George and in France by Clemenceau. The author tells of some of the scenes as untrained boys marched away to the firing line: Lu-dendor- Another scene comes back to ine from those dark days.

Retire from France? No, we wiU stand by our allies to the last! And he went away singing, as undismayed as those boys whom I had seen marching to France. A worthy leader of a worthy nation! The great German offensive could be met only by sending across the channel the entire forces that had been reserved for home defense. But the numbers were still insufficient. The Germans were working on the calculation that-th.Americans could not come across until 1919 or 1920, but the Americans only required the S. O.

How can tnat be done?' Jhat was the problem as he saw it and as he expressed it. He began to send a series of telegrams to President Wilson through Lord Reacyng, explaining to Mr. Wilson the peril and the need of Instant help. President Wilson immediately grasped the crisis. Mr. Lloyd George organized the navy and the merchant service for the work of transport on the British side of the Atlantic, and Presiednt Wilson did the same on his side. So began that great Admada of help from the new world. The American divisions poured across the Atlantic, overcrowded on their transports, packed almost to suffocation, but willing to suffer all things in the great crusade on which they were bent The Americans, indeed, did far better than the British government had expected. They sent a million men. it was a magnificent performance, and must ever be remembered to the credit of that great nation. large-scal- e maps at Down- ing street, noting the point reached by the Germans in some of those tremendous and determined effotrs to drive us into the sea during the April of 1918. There was the sound of a step behind us, and suddenly we turned to find the prime minister also observing the map with a close and concentrated gaze. We knew that things, were serious, and that there were influences at the center in favor of withdrawing our armies from France. But of NOTED PSYCHOLOGIST HERE Mrs. Peggy M. Reeves, who is at the Newhouse hotel, is teaching the practical application of psychology in business and professional life. She has made an extensive study of applied psychology, especially in the domain of character reading and psy- cho-analysi- s. Mrs. Reeves is a pleasant, dignified woman who has a remarkable facility of phrase to convey in a simple way her ideas of the use of psychology for practical purposes. She has traveled extensively in this country on this important mission. "Psychology is not generally understood," said Mrs. Reeves, but its value is steadily becoming more appreciated and its usefulness is broadening. The best evidence that the study is producing efficient results is shown by the application to which it is being put by big business in this country in selecting the proper men for the proper places in large industrial es- tablishments. Many people make the mistake of believing that psychology is allied with spiritualism and fortune telling. This has no basis in fact for the science is a study of scientific reality. Almost anybody in any calling or business can become equipped with the ability to read people by mastering the science." i Date of first publication, July A. D. 1920. ALIBI. ..
