TO TIPE EDITOR or THE SUN--Sir: Ever
since the European war began exceptions
have been taken by the German and
Austrian Americans to what they called
unfair criticism of the German Emperor.
German politics and diplomacy In Ameri-
can papers printci in the English lam
guage. II was coolly asserted that the
Emperor alone was responsible for every
thing and all the other nations are entire
ly blamless in' causing the fight between
highly cultured nations. owing To the
inability OF getting foreign, that Is to say
German, mail aud cable dispatches direct
from Berlin. II is n physical impossibility
to hear the German side OF the question.
and all We did get were a few simple
facts. as for instance. that tho Socialist
party In Germany stands true to Emperor
and empire
For the first time in the history OF the
German Empire did the members OF the
Socialist party attend the opening Of
the Reichstag In the Emperor's castle at
Berlin after the declaration of war and
for the first time In the history of the
Socialist party DID that body support
the Emperor
This Is positive proof that Germany is
fighting now for Just cause, II there
would have been any flaw. II Justice
would not huve been wholly on Germanys
side. the German Socialists would never
and never promised support to a war
which they abhor. more 70 than any other
party in the Relchstag. II Is against their
principles, against their ideals, and mas
much AZ they present very high per
centage OF the German Intelligent popula-
ton. II goes without saying that their
rally around tho Emperor and the empire
makes the German American firm in the
belief also that In spite Of the adverse
criticism IN American papers the Kaiser
must have acted right hraaLipu ho

Prayer.

To THE EDITOR or THE SrN-Sr: with
regard TO prayer, about which YOU write.
Il is astonishing how little the subject is
generally understood. Most people. Ger
tainly men. pray from merely a selfish mo-
tive. As you say, the French are now
all praying for the success Of their arms,
as are the Germans for the success Of
theirs. So 1t is with individuals. When
there Is something they desire very much
or when they find themselves in tight
place they forthwith begin to pray. II
IL wonder they do not see the absurdity
OF II.
Now the only legitimate prayer is that
which asks, either for ourselves or others.
for grace to be strong and virtuous that
II, healthy, continent, honest, charitable.
just. so that we may do our duty in the
world. II Is certain that prayers for self
sh qualification are never heard, and 7
doubt II prayers to be freed from the ef-
fects of our folly or wirkedness are ever
heard either. unless, indeed they are ac-
companied with profound sorrow and
resolution Of amendment. ASsELM.

not be put on the school teachers.
The teachers have all that they ought
to do. Their classroom work Is hard
and exacting. They have great deal
Of clerical labor of which the public
thinks little. They have home work
that occupies their time. If they are
worth their salt-and most Of them
are-they voluntarily assume respon-
sibilltles TO their pupils that add ma
terialIy to their burden. Even II the

Mr.. Bunau- Narilla's Part in the Com

sentative of the new Republic of Pan

treaty. on which rests the American
title to occupancy of the Canal Zone

but wholly characteristic OF the man,
IN this sentimental devotion To an idea,

BrNAu-NARIrLA's expression of 1t with

To THE EDITOR or THE SuN--Sir' |
read with amusement tho news I'm THE
SUN concerning Mr.. Roosevelt's objection
to the trial of Mr.. Barnes's suit in Albany
county. Mr.. Roosevelt is getting his en-
cuses ready early.
Up to the time this suit was brought
he hurled his base charges at Mr.. Barnes
with 80 much noise that proof or corrobo-
ration seemed superfiuous. Now he seems
to he in doubt as to their acceptance IN
county where Mr.. Barnes is really
known.
Sagacious Mr.. Roosevelt, Did he not
make the loudest noise about Penrose In
Vermont? What did he say about Mr.
Taft In Massachusetts? Aldrch was the
culprt when the great accuser" was in

I do not blame Mr.. Roosevelt. Dis
tance from the domicile of the accused is
really his greatest evidence.

The Manhattan Philosopher on Teeth and
bare Feet.

To THE EDITOR or THE SUN--Sir: Why
do women persist in showing their teeth
and sometimes, on the stage their bare
feet? These items In our physical
anatomy are for use and not for show.
Even the so-called pretty teeth and feet
are really far from pretty, and when
ugly, as they almost invariably are. they
are very, very uulovey things 10 look at,
especially prOtrudng teeth and fat feet.
