Now United States is allied with France, which makes a sort of four square gospel that may prove very useful in future. There are a number of other treaties that bind nations together but the tie of friendship of good will, of mutual interests and of desire for peace is perhaps the most important of all INDEPENDENT YET UNITED Since the Great War the British Empire has been working on a new bfeis and showing, to the world something new in government. The old idea of running an empire from a central point has gone In its place has come the principle of a number of nations some of greater population, wealth and influence than othersall giving allegiance to a common throne, but each one free to look after its .own affairs.

She just could not leave them to the mercy of their cruel, selfish father who had whipped their little bodies and warped their souls to his cowardly will.
