Hut in the latter year we have heard aecnaation that the ariatocraey waa degenerate and effete, outworn end aoft fibred through generation of luxury, If ever e nice ratch word wa rutblcHHly swept away, if ever a ,ela wa triumphantly vindieeted, It ha been in thee dark and terrible month einee Auguat, 1914, when our country ha been at death grip with the mot wonder ful war rnaehine the world baa ever aeen. There wa 110 need for reeruiling earnpaign; there wa no need for eonaeription to bring the ariatoeraey forward to defend England from the flrHt, When many a workman' houae knew only through higher pay and the pre of the war, hundred of home of the nobility were mourning the lo of aon, brother, eoufiin dead, wounded, blinded, maimed, I don't believe the moat rigid form of eoneription would find one aingle member of the Engliali aritoeraey to take at thi minute, I don't believe there ia a aingle male member of the Jtritiah aristocracy able to drag him self about, over eighteen and under sixty (and indeed many over) who i not in Government employ or working for the Government in aome capacity. I don't know of any woman of the ariHtocraey who i not working to her ntteirnoHt, epaeity in home way for the country, I don't know of an amtoeratic homo in any way auitable that ha not been offered to the Govern ment for nursing home, convaIeccnt home, boapita or Other uaeful object. They talk about the privilege of the aristocracy, the right of peer ix hundred and fory-one of them, 1 be lieve to sit in the Mouse of Lord a hereditary legmla tonr, for aueh peer to bo arrested only for indictable offence, to he tried, if aeeuaed of felony or treason, by their peer in the House of Lord, and, if condemned to death, to be hanged by a silken rope. Hut there in one privilege which they have alway tad and which now, as in the pat, they bavo availed them- The lhautifal Viscountess Mas screene, Now Working as c War Nurse. The Duke of Manchester Declare That Every Member of a Noble Family in England, Man or Woman, ! Now in the Service of the Country, If Physically Able to Serve I 5-:.' y' r .
