'Tlve Storr/o/ the. Titanic
The story of the Titanic as told
by the survivors touches the
lattermost depths of—pffey and
sympathy. The later reports
pretty much agree that the offi-
cers and crew, as well as the
passengers, illustrated the sub-
blimest qualities of human char-
acter. The panic that early re-
; ports suggested , did not occur.
..., There was no resistance to the
rule, "Womenfirst." . Husbands
gave their wives and children to
the life boats and we're content
t^Share the fate of the vessel.
Millionaire and peasant acted
alike the noble democracy of true
manhood. Englishman and Am-
erican, German and French, Jew
and Gentile revealed that fine
ideal of chivalry and knightli-
ness that render men god 1 y. The
aged Jewish matron who refused
> toleave her husband and sankwith
him gave an example of devotion
that cannot $e excelled in the an-
nals ojf the human race.
J, -It is a great comfort and the
- < only consolation that the heart
of the. world can obtain out of
H the loss of so many brave men.

poets and artists, heroes that live
iri the memory of men so long-as.
history itself endures. Most of
7 them had their weaknesses—all
of them, perhaps—their imper-
fections were those common to
. humabity, such Imperfections as
at times we.,hear denounced in
terms of exceeding bitterness by
demagogues and cowards. But
...in the sublime spectacle of self-
sacrifice they atha wart the cur-
tain of the universe humanity be-;
holds the elemental virtues that

coming, and the desolate homes
in Southhampton, where most of
the members of the crew lived,
are crying to us for aid.' It is a
call that will be heard wherever
human hearts beat in sympathy
with human woe.
" Of course, there will be a seach*
ing inquiry into the causes which
led to such a waste of life. We
may cherish the hope that man's
ingenuity can devise means that
will reduce the possibility of such,
disasters to the minimum. No
