THE FEAR OF DEATH From the many letters of the boys at the front come in¬ teresting light upon tlic great question of the fear of death. Ruskin says that the soldi¬ er's business Is greater than that of the merchant or of the man engaged in any other peaceful occupation, because the soldier's business is to die. Oier the great enterprise of war, casting its shadow upon the heart of every soldier, is the possibility of death. One would suppose that this would slacken their courage and dilute their energy, as death Is the one thing most of us dread above all. As the matt- er works out practically, how¬ ever, this Is shown not to be the case. Men get used to death as to other things. Dur> ing the Civil War, In Ander- sonville Prison, there was a dead line. If any prisoner crossed it, he was to be shot. Sometimes the guards were careless and shot a man If he approached too closely. Atter a time the prisoners became accustomed to this, would come close to the line, and even wrap themselves In their blankets and sleep close to it. Even with death, the old saying is true, that familiarity breeds ccmtempt. Recent re¬ ports from the terrific battle of the Marae show that the greater the danger the more intrepid the courage. Besides this, there is another big fact. The soul of man seems to be prepared for the keenest and highest forms of pleasure, only by the keenest and highest forms of danger, and the danger of death being the greatest of all carries with it a peculiar exaltation. A life ofprlvaton. of suffering, and of extreme risk, such as our soldi¬ ers are undergoing, does not mean that they are sad and wretched. They are getting thrills that we who are com¬ fortable at home do not know. Perhaps the matter has been best stated by Baudelaire, in his "Poems in Prose." where he says: "It is good sometimes that the happy of this world should learn, were it only to humble their foolish pride for an in¬ stant, that there are higher, wider, and rarer joys than their. The foimders of coloni¬ es, the shepherds of nations, the missionary priests, exiled to the ends of tlie earth, doubtless know something of these mysterious intoxications, and in the midst of the vast family that their genius has raised about them they must sometimes laugh at the thought of those who pity them for their chaste lives and troubled fortunes," —DR.

THE FEAR OF DEATH
From the many letters of the boys at the front come in¬ teresting light upon tlic great question of the fear of death. Ruskin says that the soldi¬ er's business Is greater than that of the merchant or of the man engaged in any other peaceful occupation, because the soldier's business is to die.
Oier the great enterprise of war, casting its shadow upon the heart of every soldier, is the possibility of death. One would suppose that this would slacken their courage and dilute their energy, as death Is the one thing most of us dread above all. As the matt- er works out practically, how¬ ever, this Is shown not to be the case. Men get used to death as to other things. Dur> ing the Civil War, In Ander- sonville Prison, there was a dead line. If any prisoner crossed it, he was to be shot. Sometimes the guards were careless and shot a man If he approached too closely. Atter a time the prisoners became accustomed to this, would come close to the line, and even wrap themselves In their blankets and sleep close to it.
Even with death, the old saying is true, that familiarity breeds ccmtempt. Recent re¬ ports from the terrific battle of the Marae show that the greater the danger the more intrepid the courage.
Besides this, there is another big fact. The soul of man seems to be prepared for the keenest and highest forms of pleasure, only by the keenest and highest forms of danger, and the danger of death being the greatest of all carries with it a peculiar exaltation. A life ofprlvaton. of suffering, and of extreme risk, such as our soldi¬ ers are undergoing, does not mean that they are sad and wretched. They are getting thrills that we who are com¬ fortable at home do not know. Perhaps the matter has been best stated by Baudelaire, in his "Poems in Prose." where he says:
"It is good sometimes that the happy of this world should learn, were it only to humble their foolish pride for an in¬ stant, that there are higher, wider, and rarer joys than their. The foimders of coloni¬ es, the shepherds of nations, the missionary priests, exiled to the ends of tlie earth, doubtless know something of these mysterious intoxications, and in the midst of the vast family that their genius has raised about them they must sometimes laugh at the thought of those who pity them for their chaste lives and troubled fortunes,"
