(To the music of "Webb") ·
O God of earth and altar
From all that terror teaches,
Bow down and hear our cry,
From lies of tongue and pen,
Our earthly rulers falter,
From all the easy speeches
Our people drift and die;
That comfort cruel men,
The walls of gold entomb us,
From sale and profanation
The swords of acorn divide,
Of honor and the sword,
Take not Thy thunder.from ·us,
From sleep and from damnation,
But take away our pride.
Deliver us, good Lord.
Tie In a living tether
The priest and prince and thrall,
Bind all our lives together,
Smite us and save us all;
In ire and exultation
Aflame with faith, and free,
Lift up a living nation,
A single sword to Thee.
-G. K. Chesterton.

IN
England, will speak on "The Social lllfessage of Modern English ,
Wrt'te"h.",, Mr. Powys is a Welshman by birth
and his oratory possesses all the fiery power of his
extraordinary country-a cotmtry, it will be n:called, which gave birth to Lloyd George among
others. Ever since his college days this lecturer
has been presenting in vivicl popular language the
· ideals which possess him and we may expect a
great degree of enlightenment from his treatment
of the ultimate message of his British contemporaries-men like H. G. Wells, Bernard Shaw,
Chesterton, and all the rest of that brilliant coterie
who are making of England in the twentieth century a time to be harked back to, even as we of
· today hark back to the era of Tennyson, Browning,
Shelley and Carlyle.
April 6.-DR. CoLIN A. ScoTT of the Boston Normal School will lead a
Conference on Social Education, his own topic being "Trat'nt'ng for
Leadersht'p. '' Nowhere would it be easier than
at Ford Hall to demonstrate that in every community and in every social group there are individuals, many of them, whom Nature meant to be
leaders. Prof. Barnes, you remember, declared
that the Garfields and the Lincolns are not necessarily rare and he further pointed out that he
always looks eagerly in a crowd of recent immigrants for those having the signs of leadership.
Miss LoTTA A. CLARK, Director of the 1915
Pageant, and Miss MARY MULRY of South
Framingham, will contribute, also, to the very
interesting topic of the evening and tell us i1ow we
