INEXTINGUISHABLE VERDUN. can hardly reprexa a thrill at hearing OJiE i return of the municipal authorities of of to their unbeaten but almost annibi- luted city. The mere name of Verdun if m all tcountrieir today a 'synonym for heroism. Man (kind will never outlive the memory -- of the l dauntlessness which there defied for months on months the Dioat stupendous enginery of ,war that the human mind has ever conceived human power has ever brought into action, JThe struggle was titanic, surpassing all de 'sortplion and almost staggering belief. There have been longer sieges if this could b? called i a aiege; probably for some short periods on a limited front in this same war the artillery activity hat been more Intense. But nowhere In i history Is there parallel for such sustained and gigantic hurting of men and materials into a there prolonged assault and surely nowhere .record of moie superb resistance against what (fluid only be humanly regarded as certain ultimate extinction. It it a poor wreck of a city to which the town councilors art coming back to resume (their interrupted civic duties. They find few inhabitants to welcome, few roofs to shelter i them. Where aforetime there were thousands (of residenta there are now scant hundreds land these gaunt, miserable, and wretched as isto be eipected of men who have survived an i inferno. Nevertheless the return of the city (fathers Is a splendid act of faith a type of the spirit 'of indom liable France. Verdun battered, smashed, and physically ruined, still (lives, and will come forth anew from the (tumbled stones of her own wreckage to again the eastern key to Paris" and a .world-reverhnne of unconquerable valor. (She was the gate whose sentinels said, They shall cot pas. Phe blocked the path which otherwise bad. led Jthe invader to certain victory. She suffered sorely, but she saved France. Her every wound and scar bespeaks Jlier bravery, and her claim upon the admira ition and gratitude of the world is enduring tid profound.

If he has been misquoted or misinterpreted, no time should be lost by his associates who know the facta in absolving him of the sentiments which the published words imply. The other is a Pans story crediting him' with an appeal to the Powers to make haste In order y, in concluding peace to avert serious internal disorders in the former empire suclf peace to be of a nature not to humiliate the German people. No onefcan complain of the soundness of the first part of this counsel, nor of the Christian charily of the latter 'part. - Neverthelels, the disfavor with which in particular the latter suggestion will be received may be set down as positive if will create a considerable storxq, throughout, the Protestant world, and will alpio&t certain-- y revive unpleasant comments upon the quality of the pontiffs neutrality when tho war was m its younger stages. Benedict XV has had no path of roses during bis papary, and his repeated and sincere effort to bnftg about peace negotiations between the contending powers were of no avail during the continuance of the struggle itself. Critics of his endeavors in that direction were not averse to charging at the tune that his proposals had too much the appearance of having been made m Germany." Certainly they were too favorable to tbe Central Empires to suit the Allies, though the Central Empires themselves affected to be dissatisfied with them also. This) however, is not infrequently the case with the peacemakers, whose only plans of would-b- e reward is in the approval of their own consciences. This latest appeal may not meet the response that its wisdom and charity might under olher circumstances claim, but the mo- tivea and lhe kindliness of heart of ihe sptrit- ual prince of the Vatican who makes it must not' be traduced or misjudged.
