THE
GERMAN
ADVANCE


Berlin. July 2s-Modern Germany
may be; said to have had its origin In the
reorganization of the ,Prussian army fol-
lowing the humiliating prostration OF
that kingdom by Napoleon in 1906. The
great elector and Frederick the Great had
made Prussia strong by maintaining and
using an army larger in proportion to
population than that of any other Euro
pean state. Prussia lost to Napoleon by
force what 1T had gained by force from
its weaker neighbors. In the rehabilita-
ton of the Prussian army following the
Napoleonic disaster Prussia abolished the
rule Of thumb 1t resolved to leave moth
ing to chance, but to raise and equip
permanent army of such strength as to
make the protection of Prussian territory
sure and at the same time to train every
Prussian in arms. so that in the future
the state could present against an enemy
its maximum possible force. This scheme
of army reorganization, including univer-
sal compulsory service and providing for
an all-powerful general staff, was the
work of the great Gen. Scharnhorst and
his companions.
During the four or five chaotic decades
following the destruction of Napoleon the
PruSsian government never relaxed its
efforts to make it's army nearly per-
feet as possible. All of the time the
Prussian influence among the German
states was growing and the Austrian SUI
prenacy was decaying. Bit by bit Prus
STA attached to itself new German terri
to make itself the captain of any posi-
BILE German confederation.

was controlled by the master Bismarck,

Fads for Women.


Now that transparent yokes are the
rule as finish to gowns Of almost every
description. one should be careful that
the style of yoke to be adopted is suita bile
for the material it is desired to manipu-
late. For instance. the seamless yoke
the yoke cut from a single piece and
without seams on the shoulder-will only
be a success when the fabric is either
plain, dotted or showing a very small
conventional figure.
When tucking or striped materials are
used. the shoulder seam style Of yoke is
the best. because this brings the design
perfectly straight both back and front,
while the one-piece pattern will bring
very ugly lines in the back.
When the neck is short, fat or thick,
the cord that comes by the yard is a
pretty finish for the top Of the collar, but
1t must always be of the same tone as
the collar, otherwise the addition will
only eau attention to the size of the neck.
mere are some women who find the
cord rather harsh looking near the face
and therefore edge with a narrow friiling.
This Is seldom or never becoming, be-
cause the frili invariably turns over and
the face seems to be set into it. About
the best fnish-after the cords to cut
one inch strips of chiffon or net and fold
until 1t measures half an inch fold in
three Then it is shirred through the
middle and sewn to the top of the collar.

the DAY after war was declared with
France, went off into the country to take
lew days rest. as everything had been
prepared and there was nothing left for
MN TO do. He afterward said that the
TWO weeks following. the memorable night
OF the mobilization were the idlest and the
freeSt from care of his whole military
career The mobilization machine worked
completely without friction that the war
once aid not receive one single inquiry
IRON any commanding general or other
orfcer In the army. This was the case in
spite OF the fact that the order for mobil-
lzatlon was given without any warming
and many OF the commanding generals
and stan off1cers were away on vacation.
In every instance the man next in COM
mand merely opened an envelope and pro-
ceeded to obey orders.
If England should declare war against
Germany today, the Berlin government
would h ave
Plans for Invasion nothing to do

that fact. There are some thousands of
sealed envelopes containing written or
ders which would take care of the mo-
bilization of the German forces, and
which. in all probability. go far enough
to provide for the embarkation of q Ger
man army ready to sail for England in
the event of a British defeat at sea- 1t
Is certain that embarkation drills have
taught the German officers how the trick
can be done. 1t is certain that plans for
the invasion of France, Belgium and
Holland exist in the Office of the German
general staff, and the German army would
be In readiness to strike the blow before
either of the other countries possibly
could know anything about it.
The active army of the German empire
in time of peace has a total strength OF
$4,000 men and nearly 10000 officers. In
time of war the modified field army,
made up of the active army and the re-
serves first called, would have strength
OF 1,165,OOO men, supported by the or
ganized landwehr, with 100000 and the
landsturm with 100000 men, making a
total strength of almost 100000 soldiers.
Young men are liable for service on
reaching the age of seventeen, although
the practice is not to call them until they
are about twenty. Every German capa
BILE of bearing arms has to serve in the
standing army for six years or seven
years in the cavalry. OF the six years,
two must be spent in active service, three
for the cavalry, and the remainder in the
active reserve. After quitting the reserve,
the conscrfpt goes into the landwehr
for another five years in the first class,
during which he receives two trainings
of fourteen days each; and then he goes
finally, into the landsturm, where he re-
mains until he is forty-tive years old.

$50, 900 Are Liable
for Conservation,

about $50, 900 are left liable to conscrip-
ton. OF these. however, on account of
the legal limitation of the strength Of the
active army in time of peace, only a GER
tain number join the army. They are
chosen by lot, and the remainder are
drafted into the ersatz reserve, where the
period of service is twelve years, and in
which the men are liable to three periods
of active military drill Of ten, six and
four weeks, respectively. AS a matter
of fact, of late years, since the popula-
ton has greatly increased and the
financial burden has been harder to bear.
many young men receive practically no
military training at all, although they are
all reckoned part Of the landsturm, or
ultimate militia reserve.
The superiority of the German army
over all other armies in the matter of or
ganization is admitted. There are those
who believe that the mechanical perfec-
ton which has destroyed individualism III
the German soldiers would place that
army at a disadvantage in battle with
another army made up of reSourceful men
able to rely upon their own initiative.
Such theories are comforting to the
United States and Great Britain, the
OILY powerful nations which depend upon
volunteer enlistment to fill their armies
But it is not pretended; even in England
or the United states, that any existing
army can compare with the German in
the business of preparation for battle,
in the business Of keeping soldiers well
and healthy or in it's general preparedness
to meet with any possible eventuality Of
war.
The German army is the most highly
organized body of men in the world. 1t
has been the inspiration and it has fur.
nished ideals for political and Industrial
Germany-more highly organized than
anything yet dreamed OF by the Anglo
Saxon nations.

was necessary only to send kilograms an

Ger in the army, every private in the re-

authority, whether over much or little,

Napoleon III Was
Only Obstacle.

when. the ministry Of war was in the
hands of the gifted Won Room The ma
chine was strong enough to take territory
away from Denmark and to prevent Brit
ish interference. Then it fought and de-
feated Austria, and came into updisputed
control Of the German situation. There
then remained but one great obstacle in
the way of Prussia's desire to unite the
German states into an empire, and to
control the future of continental Europe.
That obstacle was Napoleon III and the
French empire.
All the world knows how Bismarck fore
ed France into war; how pitifully inefficient
the French army proved to be in the
contest; how every feature of Bismarck's
ruthlessly ambitious program was sue
cessful and how the German empire was
proclaimed at Versailles, in the very seat
of ancient French glory.
But 1t is interesting to recall, now that
more than one nation fears that Germany
Is again plotting war, the part played
in the Franco-Prussian war and the in
stitution of the present German empire
by the Prussan army organization. The
war was fought in 1870 Won Moltke's
first plans for the campaign of a war
with France were drawn up in 1857, and
his final dispositions. which were carried
out exactly in the war, were completed in
1868. France did not plan seriously for
the war until hostilities actually were
begun. Prussia had its plans ready
thirteen years in advance. and in the war
plans drafted by the general staff two
whole years before the first gun was
fired. In 1868 Won Moltke knew and
wrote exactly what France would have
to do to mobilize its army, and how long
1t would take. He calculated that 1t
would require three weeks for France, as
against eleven days for Prussia. The
event proved that he was right as to
both his own army and that of the
enemy. France found it out afterward;
Prussia knew 1t before.
