German armies, some comparison OF
their methods and the qualities and
defects of the troops as they strike
the spectator may be cf Interest.
i could but sum this up by saying
that It is a case, OF French mobility
against German method. The French
are warlike race. who delight in mill
tary action for It's own sake. The
whole people takes delight in the
pomp and circumstance OF military pa
rade. They love the epanache" and
all that goes with It. The Germans
arc the greatest military power in the
world. but the German is not warlike.
He has the highest sense Of duty OF
any soldier in Europe, and that re-
places in him the nborn fighting spirit
OF the Latin race.
The French infantry soldier Is prob
ably as near the ideal soldier as one
car find He has cheerfulness under

resource.
But 1t is his extraordinary marching
powers that astound the spectator. A
French regiment co, ers the ground at
