While suffering and bleeding: in this war, Canada appreciates the meaning of the words of Ruskin, a lover of peace, who said that while war is very dreadful, the conclusion iis unavoidable: that all ureal works ,and deeds have their origin among I fighting people. When nations de- cline to declare their positions, re- I f use to take any stand on great ques- I lions, refuse to say whether these questions are moral or immoral, then I the period of decadence tvegins, the 1 period of money-getting, and it is the beginning of the period of death. â€" Major-General Leonard Wood, Chief lof Staff of lb* American Army, at the 'luncheon given Premier Borden ia I New York.
