The Grand Matron of the Eastern

things are not about as good as good
things; that there are problems for
all men, and they require the most
careful and discriminating study and
sacrifice. But Sergeant Alexander
McCHntock of tho 87th Canadian
Grenadier Guard had an article in the
magazine section of last Sunday's St,
Louis Post-Dispatch saying, "In tho
latter part of October, 1915, 1 decided
that the United States ought to bo
fighlng along with England and
Franco on account of the way Belgium
was treated, If for no other reason.
As there seemed to be a considerable
division of opinion on this point
among people at home I camo to tho
conclusion that any man who was
free, white and 21 and felt ns I did
ought to go over and get into it."
One may share in the conclusion of
Sergeant McCHntock without regret
ting the wholesome progress that has
been made In getting volunteers who
are free, black, and 21, and feel as
he does and it Is well for him to re
member that Negroes are not exhil
arted with tho desire to stand befoer
tho presence of tho German military
machine and bIiow off. Despite this
fact the America's enemies must know
that the 'Negro soldier is armed with
out and a good many people are In
terpreting Pope's line, "He's armed
without that's innocent within," not
only as applicable to his irresponsi
bility as to tho earth's bad order,"
but his intimate acquaintance with
the seamy side of life enables the
Negro to endure hardness as a good
soldier. His enemies have one to his
frien'ds with tales of disloyalty and
treason. But the Negro is incapable
of cherishing animosities. On all the
National struggles in which he be
came Involved as well as upon the
record of tilings accomplished during
the years of peace the 'Negro is con'
tent to abide by the verdict of pos
torlty. Many of his acts and sacrl
fices will be seen in their perspec-
tivo only when time gives it to him
and even now as his loyal sons enter
the services of his country he has
the satisfaction of knowing that for
mer asperities are softening, that his
sons will return to private life amid
abundant respect and good will and
that the slow but just verdict of his-
tory will modify or reverse many of
the rash judgments passed upon the
Negro in these tempestuous days.
