Herman Ridder, editor of the Stats
Zeitung, discussing the European war
from the German standpoint, says In
part, in today's article:
A great victory has been won by the
Germans. The Belgian army has been
thrown back upon Antwerp in more or
less disorder. The capture Of Brussels
is all but an accomplished fact. The
taking of nations capital Is almost
national humiliation. One cannot
hour Of adversely. The wrath Of war
descended upon their heads because it
was so ordained that the territory of
this valiant little nation stood between
Berlin and Paris. No compact could
be written that would protect 1t in q
battle between France and Germany.
For all practicable purposes the Bel
gians may now be discounted in the
general scheme of things. 1t would be
interesting to know just how many
French and English troops were en-
gagged in the battle along the Namur
line. A victory as great as this means
much to Germany. The numerical SUI
periority over the allies could not have
been very great.
Favor Germany.
It does seem as if things are begin.
ming favorably for the German cause.
The siege Of Antwerp will proceed
without affecting the general course OF
the campaign considerably.
The Germans have tremendous ad.
vantage in but one general staff, but
one directing mind, and but one plan

CAMPERS ENJOY
WATER OF SPRINGS

Morning and night and just after
each program in the tent, scores of
persons flock down to the springs just
outside the east end entrance of the
camp. Those who have never been
in the park before do not tire of talk
ing about the wonderful streams of
water that gush up from the roots of
the hill According to a chemists an.
alysis, the spring water contains iron,
calcium and magnesium in small guam
titles, but this is not sufficient to make
it taste. "This is certainly the finest
water l have ever tasted is an ex
clamation one often hears. why
can't they pipe this down town where
those thirsty folks on the hot streets
can get water that is real water"
