The Spirit Of The English When I left England for home I had just returned from France and had motored many miles in both countries.

Everywhere in this greatest crisis of the century I found the people of England showing the most undaunted and splendid spirit.

To their common enemy they are presenting an unbroken front.

The civilian is playing his part just as loyally as the soldier, the women as bravely as the men.
They appreciate that not only their own existence is threatened, but the future peace and welfare of the world require that the military party of Germany must be wiped out.

That is their burden, and with the heroic Belgians to inspire them, without a whimper or a whine of self-pity, they are bearing their burden.
Every one in England is making sacrifices great and small.
