It stands alone--a shining citadel Like a white tower in a _. storm- swept world, Around her is the tumult and _ the night Against her strength a thgqusand darts are hurled. Yet, founded on a rock her people stand, Guarding the lonely ramparts of the land. From every crannied hill and hidden dune ; The bristling guns give answer to the sky, At every lonely peak a soldier waits, At every hilltop is a watching eye, For every heart must be a sword and shield And every street and road a battle- field. : Strong as the granite of her ancient hills The people wait the onslaught with- out fear, A great united nation, brave and strong, They hold together when the foe is near, Undaunted by the terror and the pain They bleed and die and rise to fight again. For every man is England -- every heart Only a pulse beat of the mighty whole, And every woman watching on the shore, Is but a symbol of her country's soul. And all the skulking treacherous hosts of hell, Shall never take that shining citadel. Don't you like to meet the man who takes hold of your hand like it was a wet washrag? Neither do we. Huh!

BENEFITS BY ADOPTION OF POLICE RADIO BY LONDON MONTREAL, Feb. 21.-- Word was received recently that the City of London, Ontario, had purchased from Canadian Marconi Company 4 mod- ern, powerful radio transmitter. and two-way equipment for nine police cruiser cars. In addition to the advantage of this latest system to the regular po- lice services, this installation pro- vides a most valuable aid to the C. P. C. in their anti-sabotage work, en- abling as it does the police cruiser cars to be in constant communication with headquarters at all times, so permitting the instant despatch of these cars to any danger point. After a careful study of the radio systems for police work used by the Canadian and United States munici- palities the London City Council awarded this contract to the Marconi Company. With the addition of London there are now twenty-seven Canadian muni- cipalities who have adopted radio for their police departments, twenty-two of which are Marconi equipped. "T'm a self-made man." "You're lucky. I'm the revised work of a wife and three daughters." 'Now, if I give you a shilling will you spend it on drink?" "Only too pleased to, ma'am."
