The voyage consumed 43 days. Rough weather, in connection with the unusual height of the caisson, made its towing difficult.

By economy and courage and patience we can induce them to intensify their farming; in some sections we can even encourage experiments in the raising ; of new crops for which Europe hatopened a market. We can also teach our children the lesson of war. They can understand that ungathered har • vests and unsown fields mean starva- '• tion. They can understand that unI controlled tempers lead to warfare—i both between people and between nai tions.” | 1 had a look at the now much-talk-ed-of Louvain, quite a pretty old place with its magnificent hotel de ville crowded in by the impressive church in the center of the town, and its innumerable other old gray churches with long sloping roofs—the place a perfect nest of nuns and friars. The streets were lined with the high walls and closed windows of convent after convent, and huge clusters of monasteries were on the hills about the town—many very newly built and modern—and the town was seething with black-robed priests and brown barefooted monks and caped nuns. This was the great Roman Catholic centre, where some of the monastic orders have their chief establishments. The library of the university, so ruthlessly destroyed, contained a priceless collection of church d° cu ™ Glimpse of Belgium before the War. Isabel Anderson, in National Magazine for December.
