KAISER TOLD TO ADVOCATE
Macmillan Harden, Berlin Editor
Causes Tremendous Sensation.
Says Emperor Must Talk Less OF
Resign.

The elimination of a week of protest
against the diplomatic errors of EN-
peror William came Friday ia dar-
ing declaration by Macmillan Har-
den, editor of Die Zukunft, that the
Kaiser must either curb his tendency
to engage in controversial politics or
abdicate the German throne.
The utterance is considered the
boldest that ever appeared in Ger
man newspaper and produced won
derful sensation.
Harden's sensational attack on the
kaiser is the climax to the agigation
that is sweeping the whole nation a.
gainst the abso1utism of the emperor.
No criticism ever made against a Ger
man ruler approaches it in boldness.
AS proof that it reflects the general
sentiment, ahe is being widely quoted
by papers all over the empire, a
course that would not have Deen dared
had the people been in sympathy with
the structures by the emperor.
''Does the emperor desire to re-
nounce the throne? His grandfather
contemplated abdication in less
serious crisis aAd one that was not
brought about by his own fault
''The emperor must not be blind to
the fact that his fellow-countrymen
are now against both him and his
chancellor. Neither Chancellor Won
Buelow nor his successor can here
after retain Office without pledge
from the emperor that he will limit
his share in the government.
| Culture Germany must demand this.
The house of Hohenzollern must de.
mand it, too, in this cruelty grave
hour. Otherwise it will be too late
| A month ago such a declaration ir
a newspaper would have meant the Sc
verest punishment of the editor, but i
is considered improbable the kaise
will dare to move against Harden
Within the last week there have beer
5000 articles in German newspaper
protesting against the absolutism o
the emperor, He has been openl,
accused Of being the whole nation, o

government and of being more auto
cratic than any car of Russia ever
dared to be.
The people are insisting that in the
future the emperor inspect the various
provinces of his government and cease
meddling into everything that suits
his whimsical nature. The situation
is absolutely unique in Germany's
history, and gives rise to possibilities
that the public month ago would
not have dared discuss.
Harden is the man who exposed the
nefarious clique, the Knights of the
Round Table, with whom the emperor
had surrounded himself.

To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
Please give me a history of the de-
velopment of the harp as a musical in
strument. L. r. N.
1.-THE harp and the flute are the two
musical instruments which appear
most regularly in the sculptures of
ancient Egypt, and it is said hat such
representations date as far back as 1000
b. G. In a general way these ancient
harps resemble the instrument of to-
day in appearance, though they a
no front pillar. no sound-board, and
the number of strings was often small.
The Assyrians had harps, the Chinese
do not appear to have had any more
important string instruments than a
sort of either. and inclined rather to
the percussion Instruments; the Hin
docs favored other types of strings.
The Hebrew forms of harp were small,
and rather of the lutte type. The
Greeks do not seem to have favored
the harp. in spite of the number and

EXACTING OBEDIENCE IS
DUTY OF EVERY MOTHER
We All Must Respect Some Law and the Unruly Child Is an
Abominaton in the Sight of Others.
BY BARBARA KENT.

WXY GUILD that every mother remember that unruly children are the
W. abomnaton OF neighbors and friends! There is n o excuse fol the
v inability to teach your children to be obedent, and the parent who
insists that she cant do a thing" with her boy or girl is the n who de-
serves severe criticism.
1 know a girl who said to Ter mother: ct don't think 1 want to ever
marry. l think it's just dreadful tic have o mind your mother n father IN
til you grow up and then have % obey your husband all the rest o your
life" y
neither did she argue with Ter daughter IN the subject of fal obedience
But she had a mothers heart-to-heart tall with her, and when it over
there was M longer a look of resentment in the girls face. This good moth
.er had shown her that obedience and love walk hand in hand with reason, and
all that is really good and true and worth the effort comes to n through
obedience to som law. The mother showed her how obedience protects the
to the disobedience of son ne or of many individuals.
Would that We had more mothers like that! L know all you mothers /
am addressing var your children to be obedient, but do you eve talk to them
as this mother talked to her daughter? Do you ever tell them what dsohedi
ence brings? If you children turn III spendthrifts, with no ambition in life
and a burden to their relatives and friends you cal rest assured that you will
be blamed for it,
Two school children, arrested in Newark recently for shopifins, were
only another example If what may become Of your girls n boys If % do
not insist o N truth, honor nd obedience Who "a blamed for their dishonor?
The mother OF course, she must lave known IF their thefts, for they
brought all the fnery home. Theywere poor and probably sold these ari-
ices to friends
So the mother has much to do. She must influence Ter children to be hon
est and through them teach those ignorant Of the first principles of good
womanhood and manhood.

POINT UNIFORMS.
or of the Evening Star:

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Why was gray selected as the color
of West Point uniforms?
1.-THE gray color of the cadets uniform
and the peculiar cut of their coat came
about in a peculiar way. The Ameri-
can army in Western New York in 1914,
being short of cloth for uniforms, a sup
ply was sent, and. being short of blue
cloth, a was substituted and the
need for clothing being great 1t was
made up into uniforms and h Ameri-
cans in these two battles wore the gray
uniform with the peculiar cut of the
period, together with the bell button.
In honor of these events, which shed
such luster on the American arms, the
uniform was adopted by the cadets of
the United States Military Academy at
West Point and worn over since.-Ed.1

TINE For mi GOVERNMENT TO ACT.

The assassination of a priest at the altar in Denver seems tt W. been
the signal for anarchist threats against other priests and against church
property. The btterest feeling of the European anarchists is directeda against
the church. In Italy this anarchisic hatred of religion and it's representa-
tives and symbols is fanatcal and it is now cropping out in ON country
This nation has dealt too lenionty with anarchism, even though a beloved
President was stricken down by it a few years ago. When religious pastors
are slain at the altar, and others are threatened with DEATH and when church
property has TO be specially guarded to protect it from anarcmstc destruc-
ton, it is time fol government and law to display son energy.
