Cause Of Suicide.
The causes OF suicide in Germany are
regarded as being exceed lngly subtle, and
inb,tho current discussions the personal
views on the subject have generally been
decided by tho Observers opinions on
other questions. The socialists account
for the suicides by economic conditions

ening life generally and throwing sh'ad--$$
ows over the lives OF the children.
The clerical view Is that the absence
OF faith, the increase OF irreligion5an the
growth Of sensual materlalism explain
the weakening desire for life, and that a.
revival Of spiritual aims would lessen
suicides by increasing the serenity Of
living. 5 *
Children Are Forced. IA
Critics Of the school systems assert
that children are forced too much; that
they are over-stimulnted. and are given
tasks which are impossible for accom-
3plishment for those slightly below the
standard OF capacity. and that punish
ments, the fear OF reproofs and injury
