The following verses of Loyal and True, the American
Sunday School Patriot hymn will be sung in Grace Methodist
Episcopal Church to-morrow during special exercises:
OUR fathers have purchased with tears and with blood.
This beautiful country for freedom and God:
Columbia! Columbia! our heritage grand.
We love and we'll honor our dear native land:
To thee our allegiance forever is due.
To God and our country, we're loyal and true.
To thee our allegiance forever is due.
To God and our country, we're loyal and true.
The foes of our country are many and strong,
The powers of evil, or sin and of wrong;
Columbia! Columbia' may God be thy shield.
His truth be thy buckler. His sword thou shall wield:
With hearts full of courage to dare and to do.
To God and our country, we're loyal and true.
Oh happy that people whose God is the Lord,
Who walk in His counsel, and obeying His Word;
Columbia! Columbia! this glory be thine.
That still thou shalt merit the blessing Divine:
And we, Thy dear children, our vows will renew,
To God and our country, we're loyal and true.
Know ye. who would merit a patriot's reward.
He best serves his country, who best serves his Lord;
Columbia! Columbia! but honor thy God,
And He will exalt thee, at home and abroad;
Then long wave our banner, the Ked, White and Blue,
To God and our country we're loyal and true.

i all the anthracite coal trust cases that
have been instituted in the last ten

Offered Cabinet Places
Mr. Johnson refused positions In
presidential cabinets and twice de
j alined offers of appointment to the
Supreme bench. In his long career
he accepted but one prblic office and
that was an appointment as a Fair
mount Park commissioner, a purely
honorary local position.
John G. Johnson was born In Phila

father having been a blacksmith.
Left fatherless in boyhood, he was
graduated from the Philadelphia
high school and succeeded In being
admitted to the bar in 1863 without
going to law school.
Xote Art Collectors
Hardly second to his legal prestige
1 was Mr. Johnson's standing as an art
connoisseur. In the acquisition of
noted pictures he gradually obtained
a large and highly valuable collec
tion.
1 ther collectors eagerly sought his
aid In adding gems to their private
galleries. The fine collection of the
late Peter A. B. Widener owed much
of its prestige and value to the fact
that it was chosen under Mr. John-
I son's assistance and advice.
Mr. Johnson leaves no direct heirs,

Kaiser Conspired Against

liplomatic information not heretofore
made public was disclosed in Entente
; r ircles yesterday concerning tho
friendship which Arthur J. Balfour,
he British Foreign Secretary and
'tead of the Bri'ish Commission bears
to the United States.
At the outbreak of the Spanish Am
erican war in 1898 the German Em
j peror sought to form a coalition of
European Governments to exert pres
sure on Spain's behalf against the
I'nited S'ates. Mr. Balfour, then in
the British Foreign Office, opposed the
idea so vigorously that It died prema
'tirely and the Kaiser's scheme came
to naught.
This fact is a matter of record In
'he British Foreign < >ffice. according
to Entente diplomats. Inquiry in Brit
ish Embassy circles confirmed this in
every detail.

Dr. Gregory was 70 years old but en
tered the war when it started as an
ordinary soldier. He liad gained the
rank of lieutenant when he was killed.

He was a Pennsylvania boy who ]
went to Germany as Dr. Schaeffer did.
to complete his education. They were 1
fellow students at the University of i
Deipsic where Dr. Gregory tilled the >
chair of professor of theology. They I
parted at Deipsic in 1875, Dr. Schaeffer 1
to return to Pennsylvania to become. |
as he says, a "schoolteacher." Gregory 1
to till the highest chair in the univer
sity.
Upon the death of the world-famous 1
Dr. Fischendorf, who discovered and I
translated a part of the manuscript!
bearing rm the New Testament, Dr.
Gregory was elected to till his place. ,
Dr. Schaeffer walked in the funeral !
procession of Fischendorf, and said this i
morning that he had seen a cushion!
carried behind the casket bearing gold- j
en decorations from crowned heads.
That Dr. Gregory should be selected |
to fill the position vacated by Dr. .
Fischendorf shows, according to Dr.
Schaeffer. where he stood in the intel- |
lectual world.
Wrote Own <-l)atli Xotlee
Professor Gregory wrote his own !
death notice as it appeared in German
newspapers as long ago as August 27,
1914. his relatives only adding the date
of his death. The notice reads:
"Casper Hene Gregory, professor,
I.eipsic University, fell in battle for tlie
German cause April 9, 1917. His fam
ily must not wear mourning nor la
men* his loss but should be happy he
is resting in God. Visits of condolence J
ought to be omitted. He extends hearty :
farewell and hopeful atifwiedersehn to]
all his friends and acquaintances."
Doctor Gregory was educated in the
ological seminaries at Philadelphia and
Princeton. He undertook many voyages
to explore Greek manuscripts of the
New Testament, and for other scien
tific purposes. The results were seen
in books written in German. English
and French, and which, in scientific cir
cles were considered of great merit.
Since IS9I Gregory was the regular
professor of theology at Leipsig, but he
often visited the United States, lectur
ing at the famous universities and sem
inaries. His last grand lecturing tour
through Canada and the greater part
of the United States, took place in 1911-
1912. He was a member of many scien
tific societies, and in Germany played
a political part of some importance In
the so-called national social move
ment.
When the war broke out, Professor
Gregory, despite his age, immediately
insisted on joining the army iis a com
mon soldier and was never known to
skirk duty either in drum fire or drudg
ery behind the lines. When on Novem
ber 6 of last year he celebrated his
seventieth birthday anniversary at the
front he was made a sergeant-major.
When death overtook him on the field
of honor he had reached the rank of
lieutenant and was leading a company
in battle.

HARMBBtJRQ irfStfti TELEGRAPH
GERMANS FAIL IN 1
FIELD FIGHTING
British Outwit Teutons in
Drives Through the
Open
By Associated Press
From a Staff Correspondent of the
Associated Press. British Head
quarters In France, via London, April
14. lt is not without difficulty that
one conies to a realization that semi
open warfare has replaced the old
deep trench lighting on the greater I
part of the British front. It is diffi
cult even for the lighting men actually
to grasp the situation, a situation for j
which they have waited so long. Tho '
Germans possibly feel the change
more than any one else for above all |
things they love their underground |
comforts. The Hermans were the first;
to transfer lighting to ditches and they :
are reluctantly giving up that style of !
warfare.
The deep concreted dugouts and'
tunnels along the old front were the
only protection the Germans had |
against the ever increasing British j
gunfire and every time they get an j
opportunity to pause now they im- j
mediately begin to dig in. They take
to cover as if by second nature. The j
British have always contended that'
the German " dugouts softened the.
men, who congregated in them al-;
ways and could only be kept with 1
difficulty in the open trenches. So it I
was easier to' break the British of the j
trench habit than has been the case j
with the Germans.
Open Field Tactics
Open field tactics have been a part!
of the training of the new British j
army ever since its organization be
gan in 1914. There has been some j
criticism of that system from time to !
time on the ground that the war would I
always be fought from trench to trench j
but for the last few months the Brit
ish army in France has been drilled in
open tactics almost daily. The results
of these training methods have been
apparent in the last few days and will
undoubtedly prove still more valuable
in the wider operations which are un- ,
cfuestionably coming.
The correspondent saw a bit of field
maneuvering two days ago in which
the British troops completely outwit
ted part of Germany's crack regi
ments. It is rather a striking com
mentary that when the war began,
the officer in command of the Brttisli
unit was a young solicitor and such a I
thing as leading soldiers into battle I
had never entered his head. Two years j
on training in the school of actual war |
works its own wonders.
