In connection with the campaign d production, the call is made for etired farmers to go back to the Dr. Albert H, Abbott, secretary of Is unknown, but by 1457 it was al- ready so popular, says the Britan- nica, that it interfered with the more important pursuit of archery. In May, 1481, am Act of the Scottish Parliament was passed, forbidding this sport: "Futeball and golfe for- bidden. Item; it is staut and or- dainit that in na place of the realme there be usit futeball, golfe, or other ik unprofitable sports. . , ." It is rather curious that this is an edict of King James IV., who'later became much attached to the prac- tice of the "'unprofitabill sport" ---not only he but his daughter, Mary Stuart. : England's Importance, At the moment Germany suggests peace we see the control of the policy and purposes of her three great opponents passing into hands determined to carry on the war, and with all three of her great foes reor- ganizing their ministries and replac- ing their generals with the plain pur- pose to push the campaign and with not the smallest suggestion that peace is expected or desired on any but terms that only a victor can dic- tate. To men these crises in Britain, France, and Russia are the strongest reasons why the German proposals will fail to end the war, rather, I think they will accelerate the pace of the fighting, when spring comes, and it is possible to move in France and Belgium again. And henceforth the part that Britain will play in the coalition against Germany will in- crease steadily.
